Privacy Policy

Last updated: 3 August 2026

FrameOra Ltd (“FrameOra”, “we”, “us”, “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal data we collect when you visit frameora.uk, browse our shop, place an order, or contact us — how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you have over it, including where WooCommerce (the platform our store runs on) itself collects or processes data as part of the checkout experience.

01

Who we are

FrameOra Ltd is a company registered in England and Wales (Company No. 16367728), operated jointly with AMC Brothers Ltd (Company No. 14372944), both registered at Unit 17 Broadclough Mill, Burnley Road, Bacup, England, OL13 8PJ. Our website is https://frameora.uk, a WooCommerce-powered online store selling custom and standard-size picture frames across the UK and to over 30 European countries.

FrameOra Ltd is the data controller for the personal data described in this policy.

02

What personal data we collect

We collect personal data in a few different ways: information you give us directly (placing an order, creating an account, contacting us, or leaving a comment), information collected automatically as you browse (via cookies and similar technologies), and information generated by the checkout and payment process itself, described in the sections below.

CategoryExamples
Identity & contactName, email address, phone number, billing and shipping address
Order dataProducts purchased, order value, order history, custom frame specifications (size, material, colour)
Account dataUsername, password (stored encrypted), order history linked to your account
Payment dataProcessed directly by our payment providers — see “Payments” below; we do not store full card numbers
Technical dataIP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring website
CommunicationsEmails, contact form messages, and any correspondence with our support team
03

Data we collect when you place an order

When you buy something from our store, as part of the buying and checkout process we collect the personal data you give us, including your name, billing and shipping address, email address and phone number. We use this information for purposes such as:

  • Sending you order and account information — order confirmations, dispatch and delivery updates, invoices, and account notifications
  • Responding to your requests — including refunds and complaints, per our Returns & Refunds Policy
  • Processing payments — including sending information to, and receiving information from, our payment gateways for fraud screening
  • Setting up your customer account — if you choose to create one, so you can view past orders
  • Complying with legal obligations — including our tax, accounting and reporting obligations
  • Improving our store offerings — including testing and troubleshooting new features

We generally store order information for as long as necessary to fulfil the order, and for a further period to meet tax, accounting and legal reporting obligations (commonly around six years for financial records under UK requirements).

04

Customer accounts

If you create an account, we store the name, address, email address and phone number you provide, which is used to populate the checkout for future orders. You can view and edit your account information, including linked order history, at any time by logging in and visiting the “My Account” area of our store. Website administrators can also view and edit this information.

05

Payments

We accept payments via Klarna, Clearpay and PayPal. When processing payments, some of your data — including the information necessary to process or support the payment, such as the purchase total and billing details — will be passed to the relevant payment provider. We do not store your full card details on our own servers; card and payment information is handled directly by these providers under their own privacy policies:

Please review the privacy policy of your chosen payment provider to understand how they handle your data.

06

Shipping & delivery

To deliver your order, we share the shipping information you provide (name, address and, where relevant, phone number or email for delivery notifications) with our delivery carriers, which currently include:

  • Royal Mail and DPD — UK deliveries
  • DHL — UK and international deliveries
  • Colissimo — France
  • PostNL — Netherlands
  • An Post — Ireland

These carriers use your data solely to deliver your order and to provide tracking or delivery updates, in line with their own privacy policies.

07

Cookies

Our store uses cookies to keep track of cart contents while you’re browsing our site. WooCommerce, the platform powering our store, uses cookies for the following purposes:

CookiePurposeDuration
woocommerce_cart_hashHelps WooCommerce determine when cart contents changeSession
woocommerce_items_in_cartIndicates whether there are items in your cartSession
wp_woocommerce_session_A unique code for each customer so their cart is retrievable while browsing2 days
wordpress_logged_in_Indicates when you’re logged in, and who you are, for your account areaSession

If you comment on our site, you can opt in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies for convenience, so you don’t have to re-enter these details next time. These last for one year. Visiting our login page also sets a temporary cookie to check whether your browser accepts cookies, containing no personal data and discarded when you close your browser.

08

Analytics

We may use analytics tools to understand how visitors use our store — for example, which pages are visited, how long visitors stay, and general browsing patterns — to help us improve the site. This is generally based on aggregated, non-identifying data. If we introduce a specific analytics or advertising tool that processes personal data, this policy will be updated to name it and explain how to opt out.

09

Comments, media & embedded content

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string, to help with spam detection. An anonymised string created from your email address (a “hash”) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check whether you use it — see automattic.com/privacy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes publicly visible alongside it.

Media

If you upload images to the site, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract any location data from images published on the site.

Embedded content from other websites

Pages on this site may include embedded content — videos, images or articles from other websites. This embedded content behaves exactly as if you had visited that other website directly, and those websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your activity if you’re logged into an account with them.

10

Who we share your data with

We share information with third parties who help us provide our services and fulfil orders, including:

  • Payment providers — Klarna, Clearpay and PayPal, to process your payment
  • Delivery carriers — Royal Mail, DPD, DHL, Colissimo, PostNL and An Post, to deliver your order
  • Amazon UK — for orders placed through our Amazon storefront
  • WooCommerce and associated WordPress hosting/plugin providers — to operate the store itself

If you request a password reset, your IP address is included in the reset email. We do not sell your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes.

11

International data transfers

As we deliver to over 30 European countries, order and account data may be processed by service providers located outside the UK — for example, cloud hosting, payment processing or delivery partners based in the EU or elsewhere. Where this happens, appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent protections) are used to protect your data in line with UK GDPR requirements.

For EU deliveries, VAT and duties may be handled via the Import One-Stop Shop (IOSS) scheme, which involves sharing the minimum order and customs data necessary with customs authorities and logistics partners.

12

How long we retain your data

Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely, so we can recognise and automatically approve follow-up comments rather than holding them for moderation. For registered users, we store the personal information held in their profile, which they can see, edit or delete at any time (excluding their username); website administrators can also view and edit this information.

For customers who place an order, we retain order and account information for as long as necessary to fulfil the order, meet our legal and tax obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

13

Your rights over your data

If you have an account with us or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including anything you’ve provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you — excluding data we’re legally obliged to retain for administrative, legal or security reasons.

If you’re located in the UK or the European Economic Area, you also have the right to object to or restrict certain processing, and to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority — in the UK, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk).

How to exercise these rights: contact us using the details below, or, if you have a customer account, use the “My Account” area of our store where WooCommerce provides tools for viewing and requesting export or erasure of your account data.
14

Children’s privacy

Our store is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can remove it.

15

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time — for example, to reflect a new payment provider, delivery carrier, or legal requirement. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
