Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

Mercmile Group Ltd ("we", "us", "our") operates mercmilegroup.com, a catalogue website that showcases products which are listed for sale on third-party marketplaces such as eBay.

We are a company registered in England & Wales, company registration number 15960024, with a registered office at 128 City Road, London EC1V 2NX, United Kingdom. For any privacy question you can reach us at [email protected].

2. Scope of this policy

This policy covers only the mercmilegroup.com catalogue website. Once you follow a link to an external marketplace, that platform’s own privacy policy applies to any account, purchase and payment data you may share there. We do not host any checkout, cart or payment flow on this site.

3. Personal data we do not collect

On this website we do not ask for, store or process account credentials or passwords, card or payment details, full postal or billing addresses, or copies of ID documents.

4. Information we do handle

The catalogue is largely static. We handle only: standard hosting/security logs (IP address, browser type, referring page, timestamp) kept for a short period; small cookies or local-storage values that remember non-essential preferences (theme, catalogue filters, recently viewed items); and any details you voluntarily send us through the wholesale-enquiry form or by email.

5. Lawful basis

Where the UK GDPR applies, we rely on our legitimate interest in operating and securing a public catalogue website, and on your consent where you voluntarily submit an enquiry form or subscribe to updates.

6. Cookies

We only use strictly-necessary and preference cookies. You can clear them at any time from your browser settings. We do not run advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

7. Third-party platforms

Product cards and "Shop" buttons link to listings hosted on third-party marketplaces. When you click through, the destination platform independently controls what data it collects. We recommend reading that platform’s privacy notice for details on how purchases and buyer accounts are handled.

8. Data retention

Server logs are retained for a short operational period (typically up to 30 days). Enquiry emails are kept only for as long as needed to respond, plus a short business-record period.

9. Sharing

We do not sell or rent your information. We share it only with hosting and email providers strictly to operate the website and reply to your messages, and where required by law.

10. Your rights

If UK or EU data-protection law applies to you, you may request access to any personal data we hold about you, ask for corrections or deletion, and withdraw any consent you have given. Send such requests to [email protected].

11. Children

The catalogue is not directed to children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

12. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top always shows the current version.
