Privacy and Data Retention Policy


Last updated: 01/11/2025

At Silver Dragon Cosplay, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This policy explains what data we collect, why we keep it, how long we keep it, and how you can control it.

What we collect

  • Information you provide when creating an account (name, email, billing/shipping address).
  • Details of orders you place (items, totals, payment method, invoice reference).
  • Communications you send us (support requests, messages).
  • Technical data such as cookies (only if you consent).

Why we collect it

  • To process your orders and deliver products.
  • To maintain legally required sales records for tax and accounting purposes.
  • To provide customer service, track deliveries, and resolve issues.
  • To improve our services with your consent (analytics, marketing, etc).

How long we keep data

  • Order data: Retained for 6 years from the end of the last financial year, in line with UK HMRC record-keeping requirements.
  • Accounts: Active accounts are kept until you delete them. If you delete your account, we anonymise order records but retain non-identifiable order information (totals, VAT, invoice number) for tax purposes.
  • Marketing consent: Kept until you withdraw consent (you can unsubscribe at any time).

Your rights

You have the right to:

  • Access your data.
  • Correct or update your details.
  • Delete your account (and anonymise your order data, where legally possible).
  • Withdraw marketing consent.

To exercise these rights, log into your account or contact us at info@sdcosplay.co.uk.

How to delete your account

You can delete your account at any time via the “My Account” page. Deleting your account will:

  • Remove your login and contact details.
  • Anonymise your order history so it cannot identify you, while preserving required tax records.

Security

We use secure connections (SSL/HTTPS) and do not store your card details on our servers. All payments are processed via trusted third-party providers (Stripe, PayPal, Klarna).
