We want to personalise your experience with Willow so that you get the most relevant information about our products and services, at the right time.

Willow will remember your name and email address. If you tell us exactly what you’re interested in when you sign up, Willow can make sure we only send you information about the products we know you want to hear about.

Willow may analyse how you use our Site by recording your mouse clicks, mouse movements, page scrolling and any text keyed into website forms (not including bank details or any sensitive personal data). Willow  uses this information to improve our Site usability and may use your activity on our Site to personalise marketing to you when you visit other websites.

Willow will remember your date of birth, gender and purchase history so we can make sure you’re the first to find out about products people like you are buying, and products that will complement the ones you have already bought from us.

If you don’t complete your purchase, Willow will keep track of what you put in your shopping bag for when you return to our Site, and may remind you of what is in your shopping bag via email or banners on other websites.
