If we receive information about you from them, we will always seek assurances that they are providing information to us in accordance with data protection laws and that they are transparent with you that they may share your data with us. We may use this information to update our records about you to keep them accurate.

Why do we use your data?

We may use and share non-personal data we receive or collect from you without restrictions.

We will combine the information we collect, with information provided to us by other members of the Belstaff Group and concession stores. We will use this information and the matched information for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy Notice.

What is the legal basis processing your data?

For some of the uses of your personal data (as described above) there is a legal basis under applicable data protection laws for us to use such personal data without your consent (these uses are not marked with*).

This includes, for example, where it is necessary for us to use the information in order to perform a contract with you or take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract with you, such as to process your order, provide after care and support services to you or manage the online account facility that we provide to you. It also includes circumstances (such as we have described below) where we have a legitimate interest to use your data, provided that proper care is taken in relation to your rights and interests:
  • to ensure that we organise our database efficiently and understand how our clients may make purchases in different parts of the world;
  • to carry out research and analysis of your data (including purchase information) as this helps us understand our clients better, who they are and how they interact with the Belstaff Group;
  • to improve and ensure the security of the Website (for example, for statistical, testing and analytical purposes, troubleshooting); and
  • to ensure that you know about any changes to the Website or the terms of this Privacy Notice.
Where we have a legal basis to use your information without consent (as we’ve described above), this Privacy Notice completes our duty to process personal data fairly and lawfully and in a manner that you would expect given the nature of our relationship with you, by giving you appropriate notice and explanation of the way in which your personal data will be used.

Where consent is required for our use of your personal information, by ticking the appropriate consent box or otherwise communicating your consent (for example, by email, providing non mandatory information, verbally in-store or on a store card), you consent to our use of that personal information for the purposes covered by the specific consent that you have given. For example, we will only process your personal information for marketing purposes if we have your consent to do so. Where consent has been obtained from the customer, the customer also reserves the right to have this consent removed.

Marketing newsletters and keeping in touch with you

We will, if you have given us your consent, provide you with information about products, services, events, sales and marketing from the Belstaff Group (including personalised online content and advertising through Belstaff websites, social media platforms or our online partners).

We will ask whether you would like us to send you marketing messages when you tick the relevant boxes when you check out, sign up for newsletters or updates, or if you register with us via the Website, by phone or by email. You will have the opportunity to clearly set out how you wish to hear from us. If you are registered, you can also manage your preferences by updating / changing your privacy settings of your account. You can unsubscribe at any time.

We will not share your personal information with businesses outside the Belstaff Group, without your explicit prior consent, for them to contact you for marketing purposes (except if they are contacting you on behalf of the Belstaff Group).

How do we store and protect your data?

We endeavour to protect your data by storing it on secure servers and by using technical and organisational security measures to safeguard your personal data and to reduce the risk of loss, misuse, and unauthorised access, disclosure, and alteration. Some of the safeguards we use are firewalls and data encryption, physical access controls to our data centres, and information access controls. Please understand, however, that no system is perfect or can guarantee that unauthorised access or theft will not occur.

Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access restricted areas of the Website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.

Transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. We will do our best to protect your personal information but we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted via the Website; any transmission is therefore at your own risk (Data is encrypted in transit). Once we have received your personal information, we will use strict procedures and security features (as mentioned above) to try and prevent unauthorised access.

Who will we share your personal data with?

Your data may be stored in a database that we, as well as other members of the Belstaff Group, can access. We do this to help us organise our databases efficiently and understand how our clients may make purchases in different parts of the world. We will remain your point of contact. We will also share your data with Shopify International Limited (Ireland), Shopify Inc. (Canada), or Shopify Commerce Singapore Pte. Ltd. (Singapore), who provide data storage facilities to us, depending on the location of the data.

We may also share your data with the following categories of selected third parties in accordance with this Privacy Notice:
  • service providers (for example, IT services), business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors for the performance of any contract we enter into with you (such as, but not limited to, Website operations, payment services, shipments, fraud investigations, bill collection, and affiliate and rewards programs);
  • analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimisation of the Website;
  • law enforcement or regulatory agencies, or authorised third parties, in response to a verified request relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity or any other activity through the Website that may expose us and/or the user or any third party to legal risks or liability.
  • Any other third party where you have provided your consent to such processing, including when we run partnered competitions with other companies and you consent to your data being shared with those companies.
  • Marketing companies, advertisers and advertising networks that require the data to select and serve relevant marketing communications and adverts to you and others.
  • Professional advisers acting as processors or joint controllers including lawyers, bankers, auditors, insurers and other organisations who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance and accounting services.
  • Third party’s 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 Notice.
These third parties who may receive your data will process that data for the purposes specified above and in accordance with applicable law. Belstaff will retain a list of the third parties with whom data is shared, which will be available upon request.
