PATOLast updated: 27 September 2026
This policy explains what personal data PATO Golf (“we”, “us”) collects when you visit patogolf.com or buy from us, and what we do with it. If you have any questions, email us at patogolfsupport@gmail.com.
What we collect
- Order details: your name, email address, shipping and billing address, phone number (if you give it) and what you ordered.
- Payment details: handled directly by our payment providers. We never see or store your full card number.
- Messages: anything you send us by email.
- Technical data: your IP address, browser type and pages visited, collected through cookies and basic analytics.
Why we use it
- To make, ship and deliver your order, and to send you order and shipping updates (to perform our contract with you).
- To handle returns, refunds and customer questions (to perform our contract with you).
- To keep the site secure and prevent fraud (our legitimate interests).
- To understand how the site is used so we can improve it (our legitimate interests, or your consent where cookies require it).
- To meet our legal and accounting obligations.
We don’t sell your personal data, and we won’t send you marketing emails unless you’ve agreed to receive them.
Who we share it with
We only share the data needed for each job, with companies that help us run the shop:
- Printful, our production and fulfilment partner, which makes and ships your order.
- Payment providers (WooPayments by Stripe, and PayPal if you choose it), which process your payment.
- Delivery carriers, which deliver your parcel.
- Hostinger, which hosts our website.
- Google, which provides website analytics.
Some of these providers may process data outside the UK. When they do, they use legal safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum or Standard Contractual Clauses.
Cookies
We use essential cookies to keep your cart working and to process your order. We also use analytics cookies to see how the site is used. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but the cart and checkout won’t work without essential cookies.
How long we keep it
We keep order records for 6 years to meet UK tax and accounting rules. Other data is kept only as long as we need it for the reasons above.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you can ask to see, correct or delete your data, object to or limit how we use it, or get a copy to take elsewhere. Email us at patogolfsupport@gmail.com and we’ll reply within one month. If you’re not happy with how we’ve handled your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page.
