Your personal data, once collected, are processed for the following purposes:

Purpose

Legal basis

A: To ensure the proper functioning of our web pages and their content.

The processing operations put in place for these purposes are based on a legitimate interest of the Data Controller, and do not require specific consent from the data subject.

B: Direct marketing, such as the promotion of product sales carried out through telephone, automated communication systems, whatsapp and/or other type of instant messaging, e-mail, etc., for invitations to special events, market and customer satisfaction surveys.

Processing put in place for these purposes is done with the specific and free consent provided by the data subject. This is subject to the provisions below for so-called “soft spam”.

C: Analysis of purchase choices and interests shown, including by means of automated processing (Profiling).

The treatments put in place for these purposes are carried out with the specific and free consent provided by the data subject.

D: Management of the pre-contractual and contractual relationship, including therefore the registration on the Site, the formulation of the offer and the stipulation of sales also in our stores, as well as the registration to the Woolrich Campsite and the provision of services related to this (sending updates via email, etc).

The processing put in place for these purposes is based on the pre-contractual and contractual relationship established with the customer and does not require specific consent from the data subject.

E: Fulfillment of regulatory obligations, with special reference to administrative, accounting and tax formalities and requirements.

Compliance with legal obligations.

F: Making use of the "Notify Me" feature found in the Woolrich online store.

Without prejudice to the freedom of the data subject to provide personal data, please note that the provision of data for the purposes referred to in points B), C), D), E) and G) of this paragraph 3 is necessary. Failure to provide data will make it impossible to use the services offered by the Company with reference to the individual purposes pursued.


Finally, please note that, following the purchase of a product of the Controller, or in the context of the potential sale online through the functionality related to the so-called "recovery cart", messages containing our marketing proposals on products and services similar to those purchased may be sent to the email address that the user has provided during the purchase, and/or potential purchase. The legal basis of the processing is the legitimate interest of the Data Controller, whereby pursuant to Article 130(4) Privacy Code, the processing carried out for this purpose does not require specific consent from the data subject. However, you may object at any time to the processing in question (at the time of providing your data or when receiving subsequent messages) in order to stop receiving such messages.


4. Data Processors and Recipients


Your personal data are processed exclusively by the Company's staff specifically authorised and designated in accordance with Article 4, paragraph 10 of the Regulations and Article 2-quaterdecies Privacy Code, who have been adequately trained in relation to the fulfilment of privacy regulations and who process data following precise instructions from the Data Controller.


Your personal data will also be passed on to third parties we use. These persons have been properly selected by us and offer adequate guarantees of compliance with the rules on data processing. Such persons, in the event that they process data in the name and on behalf of Woolrich, have been appointed as Data Processors pursuant to Article 28 of the Regulation, and are required to carry out their activities according to the specific instructions given by the Company and under its control.


Such third parties may belong to the following categories:

A specific and up-to-date list of such persons is available at the Data Controller's registered office, and can be consulted at the data subject's request.


For administrative purposes, we inform you that your data may be disclosed by the Data Controller to other companies in the Group.


It is understood that your personal data will not be disclosed to third parties so that they can use it for their own promotional purposes and will not be disseminated in any way, except to all persons whose right of access to such data is recognised by law;


5. Non-EU data transfer


Personal Data will be processed within the European Union, and it is not the intention to transfer it outside this area.


The transfer of your personal data to third parties residing or located in countries that do not belong to the European Union and that do not ensure adequate levels of protection will only be carried out with your consent or following the conclusion of specific agreements between the Company and to such parties, containing appropriate safeguards and guarantees for data protection known as "standard contractual clauses", also approved by the European Commission, or if the transfer is necessary for the conclusion and execution of a contract between you and the Company or for the management of your requests.


6. Data Retention


Please note that your data will be stored for a limited period of time, which varies according to the type of processing activity and the specific purposes thereof, as set out below:

  • Browsing data are deleted - except in the case of detection of unlawful activity - no later than 48 hours after their collection;
  • The data collected for marketing and/or profiling purposes, as outlined above, will be processed for a period not exceeding 5 years from the granting of consent or its renewal or from the last expressed expression of interest in WOOLRICH's products and/or initiatives, with the clarification that data on purchases (thus also in function of marketing on the basis of legitimate interest ex art. 130 paragraph 4 Privacy Code, so-called "Soft Spam") will not be processed for marketing purposes beyond 5 years from the relevant purchase;
  • The data relating to the services of the Site will be kept for the time necessary to provide the service and to verify the execution of the same; therefore, as a rule, the data will not be kept for more than 6 months following the use of the service;
  • Photographic images taken individually during an in-store event will be processed and stored for the time strictly necessary to send them by e-mail, in accordance with the service offered;
  • The data connected with the contractual relationship will be stored for the entire duration of the contractual relationship and afterwards - limited to the data required at that point - for the fulfilment of all possible legal obligations and for the protection requirements, including contractual ones, connected with or arising from it; as a rule, therefore, the data will not be stored for more than 10 years after the termination of the contractual relationship.

At the end of these periods, your data will be permanently deleted or, in any case, irreversibly anonymised by the Company.
