Privacy Policy
Last updated: 24 April 2026
At a glance
- We collect only the data we need to run the marketplace: your contact details, your body measurements and 3D scans (with your explicit consent), your orders, messages, and device/usage data.
- Your measurements and 3D body scans are special category data — we treat them with extra care and will not process them without your explicit consent.
- We share your measurements and shipping details with the Seller who is making your order, so they can fulfil it. Some Sellers are based outside the UK — we use approved legal mechanisms (SCCs / IDTA) to protect your data when this happens.
- We keep data for as long as we need it, and delete it in line with the schedule below.
- You have rights: access, correction, deletion, portability, objection, restriction, and the right to complain to the ICO.
- To exercise any right, email privacy@bespique.com.

We share the information necessary to fulfil your Order (name, delivery address, Order items, and — for Bespoke Products — measurements or scan data) with the Seller who is making that Order.

7.4 We do not sell your data.
8. International transfers
8.1 Some of our Sellers and service providers are located outside the UK, including in jurisdictions without a UK adequacy decision.

- another transfer mechanism permitted under Chapter V of the UK GDPR.
8.3 Where measurement data or 3D scans are transferred to an overseas Seller, we carry out a transfer impact assessment and impose contractual, technical, and organisational safeguards.
8.4 You can request a copy of the safeguards applicable to a specific transfer by emailing privacy@bespique.com.

To exercise a right, email privacy@bespique.com. We will respond within one calendar month. In rare cases, we may extend that period by up to two further months.
You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or 0303 123 1113. We would appreciate the chance to resolve your concern first.
11. Marketing
11.1 We will only send you marketing emails with your consent, unless the "soft opt-in" exception in regulation 22(3) of the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) applies — that is, where we obtained your details in the course of the sale of a similar product, you did not opt out at that time, and every message gives you a simple opt-out.
11.2 Every marketing email contains an unsubscribe link and an email opt-out address. You can also change preferences in your account settings.
12. Cookies and similar technologies
See our Cookie Policy.
13. Security
13.1 We use encryption in transit (TLS), encryption at rest (where provided by our processors), hashed and salted passwords, rate limiting, 2FA on administrative accounts, and structured access controls.
13.2 No system is perfectly secure. If we become aware of a personal data breach likely to result in a risk to you, we will notify the ICO within 72 hours and you without undue delay where required by law.
