If you have any queries or requests concerning your personal information please see the customer service details below.

Information collected

Tesco Diets requests personal information when you sign up for our services, including your name, email address and other (mainly health-related, eg physical condition) information in order to provide you with a personalised programme. Tesco Diets also collects other information about your use of the service and the thismorninghealthystarts.com site. This information (excluding details of payment cards used, which are only handled by a secure online payment agent) is provided only to Tesco Diets.

Tesco Diets also monitors customer traffic patterns and site use in order to improve the service provided. However, information that can identify a visitor, such as a name or address, is not collected in this process, nor does Tesco Diets require disclosure of such information, unless the customer subscribes to the service.

You agree that we may store or process the information that we collect about you (including details about your health, gender, age, and physical condition) in countries outside the European Economic Area, which may have lower standards of data protection. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and/or account information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online.

Tesco Diets will use your information to:

  • provide and improve its services;
  • understand customers' shopping habits;
  • contact you with offers and information about thismorninghealthystarts.com products and services; and
  • provide your information to ITV Consumer Limited ("ITV"), who may contact you about their products and those of carefully selected third parties.

You can opt-out of receiving promotional communications (from Tesco Diets or from ITV or selected third parties as described above) at any time by visiting www.thismorninghealthystarts.com/remove, and changing your preferences.

Please note that there may be instances where it may be necessary for Tesco Diets to communicate with you, in any event, for administrative or operational reasons relating to the thismorninghealthystarts.com site.

Disclosures of your information

Tesco Diets would like to reassure you that your details are safe and, except for disclosure to ITV, Tesco Diets will never release your details to other companies for their marketing purposes.
