2. Information we collect

We may collect your name, work contact details, company or store name, job role, destination market, website, product links or images, quantities, budget, sourcing stage, private-label requirements, timeline and other project details. We also keep communications, approvals, quotations, invoices, payment status and supplier instructions. Website systems may collect IP address, browser, device, cookie identifiers, referring page, pages viewed and form events. Payment providers may give us transaction reference, amount, currency and status; we do not normally receive full card or bank credentials. We may use public business-contact information for proportionate B2B outreach.

3. Purposes and legal bases

We use information to review enquiries; prepare quotations; perform sourcing, sample, quality-control and logistics-coordination work; communicate about approvals and payments; verify customers and prevent fraud; meet accounting, tax, customs and legal duties; improve the website and enquiry quality; measure advertising where enabled; send permitted B2B follow-up with a right to object;. Where UK or EEA law applies, our bases are steps before a contract, contract performance, legal obligations, legitimate interests in operating a secure B2B service, and consent where required.

4. Sources and sharing

Information comes from you, your employer or colleague, our service providers,. We share it only where reasonably necessary with Shopify and website/security providers; Zoho and communication providers; Airwallex, Payoneer or banks used for a project; and suppliers, factories, logistics providers, inspectors, laboratories or advisers required to quote or perform the work. Analytics or advertising providers receive data only for tools actually enabled and subject to applicable consent settings. We may disclose information to authorities where legally required. We do not sell personal information for money or give project briefs to unrelated parties for their marketing.

5. International transfers and retention

We operate from China and serve the United Kingdom and European Economic Area, so information may be processed in China and other countries where providers or project partners operate. Where law requires a transfer safeguard, we use an applicable adequacy decision, approved contractual clauses or another recognised mechanism available through our arrangements. We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for the project and contractual, accounting, tax, customs, dispute or legal requirements. Inactive enquiries are reviewed and deleted or anonymised when no longer needed.

6. Cookies and advertising technology

The site uses necessary cookies for security, forms and core Shopify functions. It may also use Shopify analytics and, when enabled, Google Analytics or Google Ads conversion measurement. Where consent is required, non-essential cookies are activated only according to your choices. You can use the site’s cookie controls or browser settings,.

7. Your rights and marketing choices

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may ask to access, correct, erase, restrict or receive certain information, object to processing, withdraw consent, and complain to a data-protection authority. UK individuals may contact the Information Commissioner’s Office; individuals in Spain may contact the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos. To exercise a right or stop marketing, email york@sourcingbyyork.com. Service messages about an active enquiry, quotation, payment or project are not marketing.

8. Security, children and changes

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational safeguards, but no internet or email system is completely secure. Do not send unnecessary sensitive documents or credentials. Our services are for businesses and not directed to children. We do not make decisions with legal or similarly significant effects solely by automated processing. We may update this policy when our tools, services or legal duties change.
