This Privacy Policy explains how Flying Tumbler (“we”, “us”) collects, uses, and shares personal data when you use flyingtumbler.com, including when checkout is powered by AccelPay and orders are fulfilled by licensed retail partners. Flying Tumbler does not sell alcohol; alcohol is sold by licensed partners in your market (for example, licensed retailers in the AccelPay network in the U.S., and Celtic Whiskey or other appointed retailers in Ireland).
1. Controller and contact details
Data controller: Flying Tumbler Irish Whiskey
Contact: info@flyingtumbler.com.
Registered address: Ballytarsna, Nurney, Co Carlow, Ireland.
2. How AccelPay and retail partners fit in
When you purchase alcohol through our site:
A licensed Retail Partner (or licensed in-market partner) is the seller of record and fulfils the order.
AccelPay acts as the ecommerce and marketplace facilitation layer that routes orders to the appropriate licensed partner and may provide customer support for order-related issues.
Payment processing for alcohol orders may involve AccelPay and its payments infrastructure (including order splitting and retailer remittance).
Each Retail Partner and AccelPay may have their own privacy notices or terms that apply to your purchase. Where those notices apply, they will be provided at checkout or in your order confirmation.
3. Personal data we collect
We collect personal data in the following ways:
3.2 Data collected during alcohol checkout and fulfilment
For alcohol orders, the Retail Partner/AccelPay may collect and process additional data necessary to complete a regulated alcohol sale, including:
Delivery address and recipient contact details.
Age/identity verification data (where required by law).
Order contents, fulfilment status, and delivery confirmations (including signature confirmation).
