Yes. As a member of the Everton Rewards programme, we will keep you updated by e-mail with points earning opportunities for programme members as well as how to make great savings with our partners. These will include:
As you may expect, we tailor the communications that you receive based on information and preferences that you have
previously provided (such as your favourite retailers) and based on your activities on the Everton Rewards website,
through our Mobile App or on the Points Reminder while signed-in. This is so that we can give you the most
relevant and rewarding experience with the programme.
We want to ensure that we provide you with relevant marketing communications relating to the programme and
our products and services, as well as those of Everton,
our Retail Partners and other Programme Partners. To achieve this,
we may measure the effectiveness of our marketing communications as well as your responses
to marketing communications relating to products and services we offer.
It's easy to change your mind in relation to the marketing communications. If you want to stop (or start)
receiving them you can let us know in one of three ways:
Online:
By emailing us:
By writing to:
Please allow up to 72 hours before you are unsubscribed from all communications that we may send.
Please note that if you opt out of receiving marketing communications, without cancelling your
membership of the everton Rewards programme, you will still receive information in relation to your
Everton Rewards account (for example, in relation to points that you have collected and/or spent).
We may also use your information to provide you with targeted advertising through our website or through third party websites
based on information we have collected concerning your preferences.
Some third party websites allow you to request not to see messages and communications from specific advertisers on their website.
Please contact these third parties directly if you would like to make that request or if you need more information.
The majority of personal information we get directly from you and your activities as a programme member but we may also collect personal information from other sources, namely: 1) Everton 2) our Programme Partners; 3) social media channels such as Facebook, Google and Twitter.
Your personal information may be transferred internationally. Sometimes we will need to transfer your information
out of the United Kingdom, for example, where we work with Google or Facebook to provide you with
targeted advertising through our website or through third party websites.
Whenever we do transfer your personal data out of the United Kingdom, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
Absolutely, you can change the data that we hold on your account or ask us to delete that data at any time.
You can amend the information we hold on you by logging into your account and visiting the
'My Profile' page.
To request for your account to be deleted, you can do this by emailing us at hello@everton-rewards.com.
If you choose to close your account, this will erase any personal information that we hold about you. It will mean that any data about how you've
used Everton Rewards will be made anonymous, and any data that has enabled you to collect points will also be anonymised and archived.
Please bear in mind though, once you request to close your account (and have your details deleted), you will lose any points that you have collected
should you wish to re-open your account at a later date.
Everton Rewards will only hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes
of providing the services to you (and/or as set out in the Everton Rewards Member Agreement)
If you ask for your Everton Rewards account to be closed, then your personal information will be deleted from our systems.
Please note that any transactional information relating to your account will be anonymised for analytical and business critical
process purposes. This information will be archived for 6 years, until it is no longer necessary for us to retain it.
