Visitors from the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and United Kingdom (“UK”)
This section applies to residents of the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or the United Kingdom
(“UK”).
We may collect and process personal information about you where the laws of your jurisdiction permit it. We may rely on the following legal bases to process personal information about you:
- Contract: It is necessary to process your personal information to perform a contract with you or because you have requested we do something before creating a contract with you that requires we process your personal information. For example, we process your name and shipping address to fulfill orders of the products you purchase.
- Legitimate Interest: There is a commercial or business interest that is important to us or others which we’ve balanced against your privacy rights. For example, we may process device information and IP address to ensure the security of our network and website.
- Consent: We have asked for your permission to use your personal information.
- Legal Obligation: It is necessary to use your personal information so that we can fulfil our legal and regulatory obligations. For example, some recordkeeping laws require we collect and retain certain information.
Where we process personal data on the basis of a legitimate interest, then – as required by data protection law – we have carried out a balancing test to document our interests, to consider what the impact of the processing will be on individuals and to determine whether individuals’ interests outweigh our interests in the processing taking place. You can obtain more information about this balancing test by using the contact details at the end of the notice.
Personal information may be transferred to the United States and to service providers in countries outside the EEA or the UK and may be stored and processed manually and electronically through global systems and tools for the purposes outlined above.
Please be aware that the personal information we collect may be transferred to and maintained on servers or databases located outside your jurisdiction, where the privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your location. If you are located outside of the United States, please be advised that we process and store personal information in the United States. In some instances, we may rely on the Standard Contractual Clauses with data processors to legitimize data transfers to the United States.
