You can review and update your customer information at any time using your login and password. Any orders can also be tracked by logging in to your account (http://mind.org.uk/account)

Although the Mind Shop website uses encryption security software in areas where on-line payment details are accepted, the security of information and payments transmitted via the internet cannot be guaranteed. Any loss incurred or sustained by you when transmitting information by means of email or other internet links shall be borne solely and exclusively by you and in no event shall any such loss in whole or in part be borne by Mind or its agents

Although the email will state method of payment (for example, credit card) it will not include the card details you have supplied for security reasons.
