Privacy

Last updated: 2 October 2026

Who we are

Next Collector is an independent UK collectibles business. We are responsible for the personal information we use to handle our own enquiries and transactions. You can raise a privacy question or concern by emailing hello@nextcollector.co.uk or through our Contact page.

Information we receive

If you contact us, we may receive your name or social handle, contact details, messages, photos and details of the items you want to discuss. If a transaction goes ahead, we may also receive delivery and transaction details through the relevant marketplace or agreed contact channel. This information comes from you or from the platform you use to deal with us.

Why we use it

We use this information to respond to enquiries, assess items, discuss offers and manage any agreed transaction. Our lawful basis for handling initial enquiries is our legitimate interest in running the business and responding to people who contact us. Where you ask us to take steps towards a transaction, or one is agreed, we may rely on the contract basis. We may retain records where needed to meet legal obligations, such as accounting requirements.

Website and third-party services

This informational website has no accounts, checkout, contact form, website database, analytics or advertising. We do not intentionally set non-essential tracking cookies. The website host may process technical details, such as your IP address and page requests, to deliver and protect the site. Our legitimate interest is to keep the website available and secure.

Instagram, TikTok, X, eBay and Vinted operate their services independently and handle information under their own privacy notices. If you contact us or transact through one of them, the platform processes information separately from Next Collector.

Sharing and international processing

We may share information where necessary with service providers that support our communications or website, delivery providers for an agreed transaction, and professional advisers or authorities where required. We do not publish the details of collection enquiries on this website.

Social, marketplace and service providers may process information outside the UK. Independent platforms explain their own arrangements in their privacy notices. You can contact us to ask about any international processing arranged by Next Collector and the safeguards that apply.

How long we keep information

We keep information only while it is needed to handle an enquiry, consider or complete a transaction, deal with follow-up questions or meet legal record-keeping duties. The period depends on whether an enquiry leads to a transaction and whether a legal or dispute record is needed. We remove information when it is no longer required for those purposes.

Your rights and concerns

Depending on the circumstances, you can ask to access, correct or erase your information, or to restrict its use or receive a copy in a portable form.

Right to object. You can also object to our use of your information where we rely on legitimate interests.

Use our Contact page to make a request or raise a concern.

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
