WHAT SPECIFIC TERMS APPLY TO YOU DEPENDING ON YOUR COUNTRY OF RESIDENCE?
The protection of your personal information is an essential part of our activities.

WHO COLLECTS & USES YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
Our Store act as the “data controller”, which means that we determine “why” and “how” your personal information is collected and used.
To be able to deliver our products and services to you, we need to share your personal information with approved partners or other members of Kering who generally act as our “data processors”. All are bound by an obligation to implement appropriate security measures to protect personal information in their possession and are bound by a strict confidentiality agreement and specific contractual terms on “how” and “when” they are allowed to use your personal information on our behalf.
Please be aware that certain approved partners, such as our franchisees and licensees or social media, could also determine “why” and “how” your personal information is used. They have their own privacy and cookies policies, so remember that the personal information you give them will be subject to their rules and not ours.
WHY DO WE COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
Our Store will collect, record, hold, organize, structure, store, update, adapt, combine, consult, use, transfer and disclose your personal information for the purposes described in this section. Your personal information will not be further used for purposes incompatible or inconsistent with the purposes for which it was collected, unless permitted by the applicable legislation.
The processing of your personal information will comply with your privacy legislation and rely on the legal bases set out in this section. The legal bases listed in this section will also apply when we share your data with third parties for the purposes mentioned below.
1.To provide you with the products and services you have purchased or otherwise requested
We will use your personal information to manage our relationship with you and to perform our obligations under the contract you conclude with us when you purchase or otherwise request products or services from us. This can cover various activities such as internal accounting, processing your payment or delivery.
2.To manage your profile.
Once you have requested us to create your profile, via our websites or any other means, including our customer service, your personal information will be linked to this profile, where we will keep all the information we have on you. This could include personal information we obtain directly from you as well as from other sources in accordance with applicable legislation. This could also include information about the purchases made when checking out as a guest or when checking out using a profile. The information in your Maui Jim profile is crucial to provide you with the Maui Jim personalized and tailored experience, and in some cases is necessary in order to access to some specific services or to purchase from our website, and thus it needs to be kept up to date for the best experience.
3.To provide you with tailored customer service and assistance.
You should have the same unified experience no matter how we communicate. Whether this happens in our stores, on our website, by chat, by phone or by video, and whether you contact us or we contact you, we want to provide you with relevant and tailored customer service.
For this purpose of providing you the shopping experience, we will collect, store, process, use, disclose and transfer your personal information to be able to identify you. This will allow us to provide you with the tailored assistance you are asking for or to share relevant information with you. In addition, when you contact us, we may retain the personal information you share with us to always provide you with such a customized and personalized experience. This could happen if you are an existing or potential customer. Your personal information will be linked to your profile, if you have requested us to create one, or to a temporary record.
To provide you with a smooth and enjoyable customer experience, know you better to provide you with tailored answers, and to improve the quality and security of our services, we may rely on your consent, proceed in accordance with our contract with you, or take all reasonable steps to enter into a contract with you, or rely on our legitimate interest to improve our services.
4.To enable you to receive relevant information and tailored marketing content.
You will receive information and updates about us either at your request (with your prior consent where required by law) or when we are authorized by law to send you such information and updates directly, for instance after a purchase. Such communication can be global or local, and may include updates about our products and services, notifications, invitations to events, offers, surveys, etc.
Our communications will be customized and specifically designed to be of interest to you and will be updated with any new personal information linked to your profile. We will thus use your personal information to send you tailored communications or other customized advertisements or marketing campaigns. This use of your information includes some profiling activity.
5.To send you non-marketing communications.
Non-marketing communications may be sent upon your request, and/or may be important for your safety and the security of your personal information.
You may still receive such communications even when you opt-out from certain marketing communications. The information communicated may be necessary for the correct performance of our contract with you or be mandatory to comply with some of our legal obligations.
6.To assess and better understand our business.
To manage our activities, perform our obligations under our contract with you and comply with our legal obligations, we may need to access and use some of your personal information for finance, management or legal purposes, or business-related analytics & market research activities.
For example, this could occur when we use the invoices we have issued in relation to your purchases for compliance or accountability purposes, or when we analyze personal information to understand the characteristics of our customers (what is the gender proportion, the average age etc.)
In certain limited circumstances, such activity may be based on our legitimate interest when related to business analytics & market research activities.
7.To optimize and manage our website and other means of communication.
We may take certain measures involving the use of your personal information to administer, optimize and improve our means of digital or physical communications such as our website, or face-to-face interaction in our stores.
