These companies can only process this information on behalf of Poised Look and will only be processed according with our instructions. These companies are also subject to the provisions of the data protection legislation and therefore they will not disclose your information to third parties and will protect your information.

What are cookies?
We use cookies to make it easier to use our sites and to allow us to improve the service to you.
When you enter a site your computer will automatically be issued with a cookie. Cookies are text files that identify your computer to our server. Cookies in themselves do not identify the individual user, just the computer used. Many sites do this whenever a user visits their site in order to track traffic flows.
Cookies themselves only record those areas of the site that have been visited by the computer in question, and for how long. Users have the opportunity to set their computers to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. The last of these, of course, means that certain personalised services cannot then be provided to that user.
On some of our websites, we relyon cookies to make your shopping experience easier, so
your browser must be set to accept cookies before you can use the website fully or place an order. You can change the cookie settings in your browser's Preferences, usually found in the Edit Menu,
