Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that

your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However,

identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this

circumstances, such as the reporting of an adverse reaction to a product.

are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with goods or services). In this case, we
may have to cancel a product or service you have with us but we will notify you if this is the case at the
time.
- HOW IS YOUR PERSONAL DATA COLLECTED?

MARKETING
We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around
marketing and advertising. We have established the following personal data control mechanisms:
PROMOTIONAL OFFERS FROM US
We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data to form a view on what we think
you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services
and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing).
You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or
purchased goods from us and you have not opted out of receiving that marketing.
THIRD-PARTY MARKETING
We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any third party for
marketing purposes.
OPTING OUT
You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by updating your
subscription preferences by clicking the opt-out link on any email you receive from us or third parties.
Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided
to us as a result of a product purchase, product experience or other transactions.
COOKIES
You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or
access cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this website may
become inaccessible or not function properly. For more information about the cookies we use, please
see [COOKIE POLICY].
CHANGE OF PURPOSE
We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably
consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original
purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible
with the original purpose, please contact us.
If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the
legal basis which allows us to do so.
Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in compliance
with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.
- DISCLOSURES OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We may share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in the table
‘Purposes for which we will use your personal data’ above.
• Internal Third Parties as set out in the [Glossary].
• External Third Parties as set out in the [Glossary].
• Digital marketing agencies, including but not limited to The Digital Fairy Limited
• www.perfumeshopping.com
• Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer or merge parts of our business or our assets.
Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens
to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in
this privacy policy.
We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance
with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own
purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance
with our instructions. - INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
We share your personal data within the Shaneel Group and use Mailchimp, a US company, to provide
our email marketing services. This involves transferring your data outside of the European Economic
Area (EEA).
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is
afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate
level of protection for personal data by the European Commission. For further details, see European
Commission: Adequacy of the protection of personal data in non-EU countries.
Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European
Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe. For further details,
see European Commission: Model contracts for the transfer of personal data to third countries.
Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of
the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared
between Europe and the US. For further details, see European Commission: EU-US Privacy Shield.
Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when
transferring your personal data out of the EEA. - DATA SECURITY
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being
accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit
access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have
a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are
subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you
and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
- DATA RETENTION
HOW LONG WILL YOU USE MY PERSONAL DATA FOR?
We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we
collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting
requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we
reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and
sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your
personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve
those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other
requirements.
By law we have to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial
and Transaction Data) for six years after they cease being customers for tax purposes.
In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see [your legal rights] below for further
information.
In some circumstances we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated
with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely
without further notice to you. - YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal
data. Please click on the links below to find out more about these rights:
• [Request access to your personal data].
• [Request correction of your personal data].
• [Request erasure of your personal data].
• [Object to processing of your personal data].
• [Request restriction of processing your personal data].
• [Request transfer of your personal data].
• [Right to withdraw consent].
If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact the DPO using the details provided
above.
NO FEE USUALLY REQUIRED
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights).
However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive.
Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
WHAT WE MAY NEED FROM YOU
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your
right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure
to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also
contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
TIME LIMIT TO RESPOND
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take us longer than
a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case,
we will notify you and keep you updated.
- GLOSSARY
LAWFUL BASIS
Legitimate Interest means the interest of our business in conducting and managing our business to
enable us to give you the best service/product and the best and most secure experience. We make
sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights
before we process your personal data for our legitimate interests. We do not use your personal data for
activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are
otherwise required or permitted to by law). You can obtain further information about how we assess our
legitimate interests against any potential impact on you in respect of specific activities by contacting us.
Performance of Contract means processing your data where it is necessary for the performance of a
contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract.
Comply with a legal obligation means processing your personal data where it is necessary for
compliance with a legal obligation that we are subject to.
THIRD PARTIES
INTERNAL THIRD PARTIES
Other companies in the Shaneel Group acting as joint controllers or processors who provide IT and
system administration services and undertake leadership reporting.
EXTERNAL THIRD PARTIES
• Service providers who may also be acting as processors who provide IT and system administration
services.
• Service providers who may also be acting as processors who provide business support services.
• Professional advisers who may also be acting as processors or joint controllers including lawyers,
bankers, auditors and insurers who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance and accounting
services.
• HM Revenue & Customs, regulators and other authorities acting as processors or joint controllers
based in the United Kingdom who require reporting of processing activities in certain

YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
You have the right to:
Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This
enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully
processing it. Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any
incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy
of the new data you provide to us.
Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal
data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to
delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to
processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are
required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always
be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if
applicable, at the time of your request.
Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those
of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object
to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also
have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In
some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your
information which override your rights and freedoms.
Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend
the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:
• If you want us to establish the data’s accuracy.
• Where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it.
• Where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish,
exercise or defend legal claims.
• You have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding
legitimate grounds to use it.
Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a
third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable
format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent
for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data.
However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your
consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to
you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
