In specific situations, we require your data to pursue our legitimate interests in a way which might reasonably be expected as part of running our business, and which does not materially impact your rights, freedom, or interests. For example, we will use your purchase history to send you or make available personalised offers. We may also send you direct marketing emails when you shop with us and do not choose to opt out - this is often called a 'soft opt in’.
