The lavelleartgallery.ie website uses cookies, which are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer’s hard drive. Our cookies do not contain any personally identifying information, but enable us to provide a shopping cart and to store your order information between visits. If you’ve set your browser to reject cookies, you can still use our site, but will not be able to purchase items. We recommend that you leave them turned on.
To request more information about an item, you must provide your e-mail address so that we may reply to your question by e-mail. To place an order with the gallery, you can set up an account, although it is not necessary. Setting up an account requires you to provide your email address and choose a password. We also ask for your name, shipping address, telephone number (your ‘Order Information’). This information is necessary for us to process your order, to notify you of your order status, and to fulfill orders.

The Lavelle Art Gallery have a formal arrangement with a secure third-party site called Stripe where you must enter your credit card number, billing address, and expiration date to secure payment. Stripe uses secure servers to process your payments. The secure server layer (SSL) encrypts all information you input. The security of this procedure is such that the Lavelle Art Gallery is not given access to your credit card information. We are simply instructed by Stripe that the credit card has been authorized. Stripe is not permitted to use your information for any other purposes than to secure payment for your purchase from us.
You may from time to time choose not to use our third party secure site and may supply us your credit card details directly over the phone – NEVER email your credit information. We can assure you that this information shall only be held in our secure and password protected accounts system. Access to this information shall be strictly limited to authorized personnel and shall not be transmitted or divulged to any third party.
