Who We Are

  • Automatically through cookies, pixels, log files, and similar technologies when you use our website.
  • From Shopify and service providers involved in payments, fulfilment, shipping, analytics, advertising, fraud prevention, and customer support.

Our Lawful Bases

Under UK data protection law, we rely on one or more lawful bases depending on the purpose of the processing:

  • Contract: where processing is necessary to take steps at your request, process your order, deliver products, or provide requested services.
  • Legal obligation: where information must be processed to comply with applicable law, tax, accounting, regulatory, or consumer-protection requirements.
  • Legitimate interests: where processing is necessary to operate and protect the store, prevent fraud, improve services, respond to customers, and support our business, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.
  • Consent: where you have actively agreed to specific marketing, advertising, analytics, or non-essential cookie activity. You may withdraw consent at any time.

Shopify

Our online store is hosted on Shopify. Shopify provides the ecommerce platform that allows us to display products, process orders, manage customer interactions, and operate the store.

Shopify may process information about your device, use of the store, account, and transactions to provide and improve its services, maintain security, prevent fraud, and meet legal obligations. Shopify’s processing is also governed by its own privacy documentation.

When We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information in the ordinary meaning of selling customer data for money. We may share relevant information with carefully selected recipients where necessary, including:

  • Shopify and ecommerce technology providers.
  • Payment processors, banks, and fraud-prevention providers.
  • Suppliers, fulfilment partners, warehouses, couriers, and delivery providers.
  • Website hosting, IT, security, analytics, and customer-support providers.
  • Marketing and advertising providers where permitted and subject to your choices.
  • Professional advisers such as accountants, insurers, auditors, and legal advisers.
  • Regulators, law-enforcement bodies, courts, public authorities, or other parties where disclosure is required or permitted by law.
  • A purchaser, successor, or adviser involved in a genuine sale, restructuring, financing, or transfer of all or part of the business.

We aim to share only the information reasonably necessary for each recipient to perform its role.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

CyberBike and its service providers may use cookies, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, keep the shopping basket functional, protect checkout, measure performance, understand website activity, and support advertising.

Cookies that are strictly necessary may be used without consent where permitted. Non-essential analytics, personalisation, and advertising technologies are used according to your consent choices and applicable law.

You can manage available choices through the store’s cookie banner or privacy settings. You may also configure your browser to block or remove cookies, although some store functions may then operate incorrectly.

Marketing Communications

Where you have subscribed or where otherwise permitted by law, we may send information about CyberBike products, offers, and store updates.

You can unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link in a marketing email or by contacting us. Unsubscribing from marketing will not prevent necessary service messages about an active order, return, refund, account, or security matter.

International Data Transfers

Shopify and some of our service providers may process personal information outside the United Kingdom. Where applicable, we seek to rely on recognised safeguards or another lawful transfer mechanism designed to protect personal information in accordance with UK data protection requirements.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including order fulfilment, customer support, warranties, returns, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, and compliance with tax, accounting, regulatory, and legal obligations. Retention periods may vary according to the type of information and applicable requirements.

How We Protect Information

We use reasonable organisational and technical measures intended to protect personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, misuse, or loss.

No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Please use a strong, unique password where customer accounts are available and avoid sending sensitive payment information through ordinary email.

Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, you may have the right to:

  • Request access to personal information we hold about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
  • Request deletion of your information in certain circumstances.
  • Request restriction of certain processing.

  • Object at any time to the use of your information for direct marketing.

Children’s Privacy

CyberBike products and services are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children for the purpose of selling products to them. Orders should be placed by an adult with legal capacity to enter into a purchase contract.
