Privacy Policy
At Sangyo Lighting, we are committed to maintaining the trust and confidence of anyone who contacts us in any way. Here you’ll find information on how we treat data.
Visitors to our Website
When someone visits www.sangyolighting.com we use a third party service, Google Analytics and Adwords, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website. You can find more information on how cookies are used on this website in the Cookies Policy below.
If we do want to collect personally identifiable information through our website, we will be up front about this. We will make it clear when we collect personal information and will explain what we intend to do with it. Any personal data we store electronically is automatically encrypted to keep it safe.
Whenever you contact Sangyo Lighting, through whichever method, we will collect your email address. If you have not already opted in to receiving our newsletter, we will ask whether you would like to subscribe to our newsletter. If the answer is no, we will destroy any record of your email address unless it is still required for the fulfilment of an order or if there is any other legal basis for its retention.
Visitors to our Showroom
Our showroom uses CCTV for crime prevention purposes and to protect our staff and customers. It covers the upstairs and downstairs display areas as well as the pavement and kerbside immediately outside the premises. Footage is kept securely on site and is only visible to authorised Sangyo Lighting staff. It is kept for 5 weeks before being overwritten. We do not share CCTV images unless requested by appropriate law-enforcement agencies.
Newsletter Sign Up
As part of the registration process for our regular e-newsletter, we collect your full name and your email address. We use that information to tell you about our product ranges, new arrivals, ex-display furniture sales, company news and other luxury lifestyle information we believe you may be interested in. Every now and then, we may contact you to check that you are happy and satisfied. We never rent or sell our mailing lists to any other companies.
We use a third party provider, MailChimp, to deliver our newsletter. We gather statistics around email opening and clicks using industry standard technologies to help us monitor and improve our e-newsletter. For more information, please see MailChimp’s Privacy Notice. http://www.sangyolighting.com

Legitimate Interests
Sangyo Lighting has a legitimate interest to process personal data relating to decision makers and budget holders in organisations with any business interest in furniture, lighting, accessories, interior design or property development. The data is gathered from publicly available sources and directly from the companies concerned. Data is collected solely for the purpose of compiling a database of business contacts to be used by Sangyo Lighting for business-to-business marketing.

LiveChat
We use a third party provider, Tawk, to conduct our online chat service. Tawk keeps an archive of each chat, including any information that you submit. We ask at the end of a chat whether you would like to subscribe to our newsletter, for which we collect your email address. We will only add you to our mailing list if you consent. For more information on how LiveChat stores and uses your data, please see their Privacy Notice. http://www.sangyolighting.com
Brochure Requests
As part of the request process for our brochure, we collect your full name, postal address and email address. We use the address information to send you a copy of our latest brochure. We will keep your address information and email address in order to contact you by email in future to ask whether you would like to receive a copy of any subsequent brochures. If the answer is no, or if you do not respond to the email, we will delete your postal address. We will also delete your name and email address, unless you have already subscribed to our newsletter.

Our Cookie Policy
This website stores small pieces of information to ensure the site works the best way for your requirements.
Personal data/Cookies may be used for personalisation of ads. You can read more about how Google will use your personal data on Google’s Privacy & Terms site.

They store no personal information and are removed when no longer required. You can stop sites putting Cookies on your machine by using your Browser’s privacy settings.
A new European directive means that we need to tell you what Cookies we use and give the option not to proceed if you do not wish to use Cookies.
If you continue to use the site we will take this as explicit permission to use the Cookies outlined below.
What Are Cookies?

Please note that cookies can’t harm your computer. We don’t store personally identifiable information such as credit card details in cookies we create, but we do use encrypted information gathered from them to help improve your experience of the site. For example, they help us to identify and resolve errors, or to determine relevant related products to show you when you’re browsing.
