Your Data will be processed by FRED, its subsidiaries, branches and/or affiliates, and their business partners.
LVMH Group Data processing
FRED belongs to the LVMH Group, which comprises many exceptional Maisons that offer high quality products and services in all sectors including Fashion & Leather Goods, Perfumes & Cosmetics, Watches & Jewelry, Wines & Spirits, Selective Retailing and Hospitality, Culture & leisure. The list of all LVMH Maisons is available at https://www.lvmh.com. If you are customer of our Maison, you may also be a customer of other LVMH Maisons.
We endeavor to improve your experience by proposing personalized offers and services and customized marketing communications that correspond to your interests. This relies on knowing your preferences and interests.
If you consent we will share the purchases you have made with us during the last 3 years with LVMH, our parent company, in a pseudonymous way (which means that your name and your contact details will not be sent to LVMH). Your purchases will be analyzed and matched with purchases you made with other Maisons of the LVMH Group where you have given a similar consent. Each Maison that has your consent will receive back from LVMH generic information concerning your purchasing habits and preferences.
FRED will remain the sole data controller which means that it is the company that is responsible for the information that you provide to it. LVMH acts as our data processor, or service provider, and will not use your data for any purpose other than the one described above. For example, LVMH will not use your data for its own purposes, will not contact you for marketing purposes based on the data we provide, and will not share information about you with Maisons of the LVMH Group to which you are not a customer and/or to whom you have not given consent.
Within the framework of the provision of its services, FRED may transmit or grant access to your Data for technical, logistical or commercial reasons to the following categories of recipients:
As part of the management of your orders, some FRED service providers who receive your Data may act as data controllers: this is the case in particular for delivery logistics service providers and service providers in charge of payment and fraud management. In this case, the processing of your Data is subject to the personal data protection policies of these providers, which FRED will be able to provide you with on request or which you can obtain by contacting them directly. Similarly, the rights you have under the applicable regulations on the protection of personal data must be directly exercised with these service providers. FRED may also pass on your Data to third parties if this is required by law, a statutory provision or legal decision or if such communication is required in order to protect and defend its rights.
Except for these cases, your Data will not be passed on or made accessible to any third parties, excepted the event of the restructuring of FRED, including a total or partial asset transfer, merger, absorption, acquisition, demerger and in general any reorganization operation, subject to appropriate security and confidentiality measures.
5. Data transfers to third countries

Any transfer of Data outside the EEA, notably to a state for which no adequacy decision has been reached by the European Commission under Article 45 of the GDPR, it will be governed by appropriate guarantees, notably contractual, in accordance with the regulations applying to the protection of personal data, such as standard data protection clauses under Article 46 §2 of the GDPR.

In the event of a payment incident, your Data will be kept for the duration of the incident management, then for a period of three (3) to five (5) years depending on the seriousness of the incident.
The Data used to manage, optimize and customize customer relations and for the purpose of sending commercial communications relating to offers, products, news and events concerning FRED will be retained for a period of three (3) years from their collection or your last contact with FRED if you are a prospect (i.e. you have not made any purchase with us but you are interested by FRED) and seven (7) years, if you are a client (i.e.; you have made a purchase of our products or services). This Data is your contact information as well as information about your participation in previous FRED events and your purchase history. Prior to the expiry of this period, FRED may contact you to determine whether you wish to continue to receive communications relating to our offers, products, news and events.

9. Combating fraud and counterfeiting
FRED is a jewellery House within the LVMH group. The LVMH group places a great deal of importance on the protection of its trademarks, products, know-how and image. In this context the LVMH group, alongside and in cooperation with the public authorities, has introduced a number of tools to detect fraud and counterfeiting and centralises all information relating notably to counterfeiting offences and parallel imports which it may detect or which are reported concerning the brands and products of the LVMH group or any other infringement of the rights of the companies within the LVMH group, a list of which can be obtained from the website www.lvmh.fr, including in relation to the FRED House.
In this context, the LVMH group may be required to collect and process certain personal data concerning individuals who are suspected to have committed or been involved in such infringements as well as any witnesses.
This information will only be retained for the requirements and duration required for the verification of the detected or reported facts and, if applicable, for the implementation of proceedings or means intended to settle the matter until the case is finally closed or, if the LVMH group decides not to initiate proceedings, for a period of five (5) years from the last incident recorded.
