INTRODUCTION

The information in this Privacy Policy sets out how we gather and retain your personal data, and the procedures you may utilize in relation to any personal information stored with us. This Policy should be read together with our Terms and Conditions found on our website and available here.  LXL Boutique is committed to protecting the privacy of our clients in line with the Data Protection Act of the Cayman Islands (found here) (“DPA”).

Personal data is any information about you that allows you to be identified. For the purposes of your custom with LXL we may collect your name, your address, your phone number, email address, and payment information. This is information necessary for us to provide the service you require. LXL respects the privacy of its customers, and we are committed to the responsible use of any personal data that you provide to us.

LEGAL GROUNDS FOR USING PERSONAL DATA

  1. Consent: Ordinarily, personal data would be provided to LXL with your consent on the basis of the provision of any service you contract to receive from us.
  1. Contract: When you place an order with LXL a contract for services is formed between us and we must gather certain personal information from you in order to affect that contract with you. For example, to provide you with an invoice for services rendered, or to post your order, we will need the information to contact you.
  1. For a legitimate interest: We may use your information where there is a legitimate reason to do so. A legitimate interest may arise where we use your information to help achieve our business objectives or to facilitate a benefit to you or someone else. We only rely on legitimate interests if the reason for using your information is fair and lawful. For example:
a.  it is in our legitimate interests to process personal information in order for us to understand our customers, promote our services and operate our website efficiently for providing LXL products globally;
b.  we will rely on our legitimate interests when we analyze what content has been viewed on our website, so that we can understand how they are used;
c.  it is in our legitimate interest to carry out marketing analysis to determine what products and services may be relevant to the interests of our users;
d.  where we offer partnered features such as a promotion, together with a third party, it would be in our legitimate interests to share the information you provide to us with that third party. It will usually be obvious where this is the case and we will provide you with additional information as appropriate and where appropriate, request consent;
e.  in the event of a sale or transfer of our business, it would be in our legitimate business interests to provide relevant information to a potential purchaser or successor.
  1. Compliance with law: In some cases, we may have a legal obligation to use or keep your personal data. There may be situations where we need to use your information to comply with legal and regulatory obligations or to defend claims.

At any given time, LXL rely on at least one of the above legal grounds to collect and process your personal data.

WAYS THAT WE COLLECT PERSONAL DATA

We collect personal data when you provide it to us and through use of our Site or purchase of our products. For example, when you subscribe to our newsletter online, complete our online forms, contact customer care or participate in a promotion, or pay for a product. We also collect personal information when you browse our website through cookies. With your permission, your credit card information may be held using secure encryption-based technology for the routine payment of your invoices from LXL.

INFORMATION SHARING

We may share your information as follows:

  • LXL Employees: in line with their duty to provide you a high level of service.
  • Suppliers: we may provide information to other third-parties that provide services on our behalf such as dealing with online payments and other forms of payment processing or web analytics;
  • Advertisers: we may provide information to our advertising partners and providers;
  • Successors: we may reveal your personal information to any other organisation that buys, or to which we transfer all, or substantially all, of our assets and business. If such a transfer takes place, we will use reasonable efforts to try and make sure that the organisation we transfer your personal information to uses it in line with our privacy policy; and
  • Legal and regulatory bodies: reveal your personal information to any law enforcement agency, court, regulator, government authority or other organisation if we are required to do so to meet a legal or regulatory obligation, or otherwise to protect our rights or the rights of anyone else. 

We currently share information with:

  • Google Analytics – we use Google Analytics to track our website’s traffic. These cookies collect anonymous information and allow us to view how the site, section and/or article performs. We are then able to tailor the website to provide a better experience for our customers, as well as optimize our website’s performance. We collect data about our traffic via Google advertising cookies and anonymous identifiers, in addition to data collected through a standard Google Analytics implementation;
  • Shopify – we use Shopify for our e-commerce platform. For more information, please visit https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms
  • Mailchimp – we use Mailchimp for some of our marketing campaigns. For more information about Mailchimp please visit https://mailchimp.com/why-mailchimp/.

These organisations may change from time to time without any notice to you. Any organisations however, which access your data in the course of providing services on our behalf will be required to comply with all applicable Cayman Islands data protection laws and we may, from time to time, review our service providers to make sure that they meet the standards required by the DPA. Note that we will not share your personal information with any non-affiliated company for their own marketing purposes unless we have your permission to do this.

INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

In connection with the above purposes your personal information may be transferred outside of the Cayman Islands, including to a jurisdiction which is not recognised by the Cayman Islands Ombudsman as providing for an equivalent level of protection for personal information as is provided for in the Cayman Islands. If and to the extent that we do so, we will ensure that appropriate measures are in place to protect the privacy and integrity of such personal information and, in particular, we will comply with our obligations under relevant data protection laws and regulations governing such transfers, which may include:

  • entering into a contract governing the transfer which contains the “standard contractual clauses” approved for this purpose by the Ombudsman;
  • where appropriate, transferring your personal information pursuant to binding corporate rules; or
  • a transfer where the Ombudsman has decided that the recipient ensures an adequate level of protection.

RETENTION

We will keep your personal information as long as it is necessary for the uses described in this Policy or where there is a legitimate reason to do so. We may need to retain information for statutory reasons, accounting purposes or to comply with our obligations under law or regulation.

If we no longer need your personal information in full we will make efforts to anonymise or aggregate it, thereby removing all details that identify you.

If we have asked for your consent to process your personal information and you withdraw your permission or if we have no other lawful grounds to continue with that processing, we will delete your personal data.

When you unsubscribe from marketing communications, we will keep your email address to ensure that we comply with your request.
