WHAT DO YOU USE FOR MY INFORMATION?

To get our site up and running, including allowing you to order and receive products from our site, administer your account and optimize your experience we need to use the information we collect in different ways. The main purpose for which we use your information is:

• To provide you with the products you ordered: to order products, you need to register an account on our website (which you can customize). Your information, including name, address, telephone number, email address and financial information (such as credit and debit card details) will be used so that when you submit your order we can process your order. We may also use your information to communicate with you about your order, your account and to provide support whenever you need it. This may require us to make your information available to our partners who are also involved in your purchase process, as explained below;

To do this, we use your information (including your frequency of access, statistical information and device information) to ensure that the site and its functionality, as well as wi-fi networks are working properly, to tailor and customize the site to your preferences, and to provide you with specific pages in your language or location.

Please note that we do not sell any of the information we collect without your express consent (whether it be your name, address, email address, financial or other information) to any partner or other entity.

WHO DO YOU SHARE MY INFORMATION WITH?

In order to make our website and services available, we rely on collaboration with carefully selected external partners. So we can share your information with these partners under the following circumstances:

• service provider partners to support the business: to make everything work properly, we use a limited number of carefully selected partners. In these partners we include our partner factories, our logistics partners, anti-fraud and credit validation companies that keep us both safe, data analysis companies to leverage our marketing, research and analysis companies to carry out the development of our questionnaires, suppliers and technology service providers to support, maintain and make available our technology among others. We allow these companies to use your information only to the extent that it is necessary for them to do their job; we do not allow these companies to disclose or use this information for any other purpose. We impose demanding behaviors and strict requirements on the management that these companies make of their information.
• advertisers for marketing: we may make your information available to our social media partners (including Facebook and Instagram, if you choose) when they ask us for this information to select ads relevant to you about our products or services.
• third party service providers for information enrichment: we can also supplement, combine or compare with that from other sources, for example by sharing some of the information between selected partners. We do this to better understand your customer profile and your interests so that we can offer you customized and personalized services and products.
• partners with whom we are considering a corporate transaction: we are always looking for new opportunities and growth paths. This means that we can consider corporate transactions such as mergers, acquisitions, reorganizations, asset sales or the like. In these circumstances, we may transfer your information to enable validation and execution of the transaction. If we buy or sell any business or asset, your personal information may be one of those assets to be transferred.
• to comply with legal requirements: if we are required to collaborate with regulatory or supervisory bodies in different countries, if this is in normal compliance with the law, by legal order or other legal process. Although we may make a request to the contrary, in some cases we may have to share your information with these entities. Whenever we consider it appropriate, and provided that we are not prevented from doing so by law or legal order, we will try to notify you of these situations.
• aggregated information with partners: we may aggregate information about you with the information of other customers, creating a database of information about your use of the site, product research, and other generic information. Although this information is aggregated and anonymous, which means that it cannot identify you as an individual, it provides valuable information about the use of the site and we can therefore share it with some external partners. These partners may include providers of add-on services to our site such as plugins or other similar technologies to measure traffic, our factories and other service providers to better manage our product range and stock, as well as our investors. Please note that we do not share your information with any partners who use it for advertising purposes on our site.
