​
We may disclose your personal data only to the parties indicated below and for the following reasons: 

We disclose your personal data to Le Sac employees that need to have access to your personal data and are authorized to process them in order to achieve the aforementioned purposes and who are committed to confidentiality. 

We may disclose your personal data to Le Sac company: departments in charge of customer relationship, retail, e-commerce, communication, legal affairs, finance, internal audit, IT management and security for the purposes set out in our Privacy Policy and to provide you with a consistent level of service across all Le Sac business. This may include providing you with the products and services that you have requested, improving the services provided and – with your consent – sending you Promotional Communications concerning offers, services, products or events (for such purpose, you may withdraw your consent at any time – see section “What rights do you have on your personal data?” below).

​

For the specific purpose of combating payment fraud, your personal data are communicated to Le Sac in order to process your order and to fight against online payment methods fraud attempts. As part of our legitimate interest to fight against fraud with payment methods, Le Sac , acting as data controller, can transmit your financial information to an external service provider with a fraud detection tool in order to authenticate a payment. Such service provider is committed to confidentiality.

 

 

The Le Sac company is located worldwide. As a result, personal data may be transferred outside the country where you are located. This includes transfers to countries outside the European Union (“EU”) and to countries that do not have laws that provide adequate protection for personal data according to the European Commission.  
To ensure lawful transfers of data, the Le Sec has implemented Binding Corporate Rules (“BCRs”) designed to allow Le Sec to transfer personal data from the European Economic Area (“EEA”) to other Le Sac located outside of the EEA in compliance with the European data protection law. These BCRs have been approved by the European data protection authorities. 

 

 

For countries where BCRs are not fully recognized as adequate mechanism, transfers are made on the basis of appropriate contractual clauses approved by the data protection authorities. To obtain a copy of the relevant adequate safeguards, you can send us your request (see below “How to contact us?”).
Please visit hhttps://en.lesac.store/ for more details.

We may also disclose personal data to third-party providers acting on behalf of Le Sac and approved by Le Sac.

All such processing is based on our prior instructions set out in a binding contract that is compliant with the requirements of applicable law.

 

 

Such disclosures are made for different purposes including:

  • IT development and support;

  • Hosting and carrying out marketing and business studies and marketing campaigns;

  • Verifying your information, authenticating payments and processing orders and payments, to third parties that provide credit reporting, payment or order fulfilment services;

  • Delivery services

  • Data quality management services (standardization, deduplication…)

​

These providers are committed to confidentiality and are not permitted to use your personal data for any other purposes. We also require them to use appropriate security measures to protect your personal data. 

Part of those service providers are located outside of your country, notably outside the EU. We have taken steps to ensure all personal data is provided with adequate protection and that all transfers of personal data, including outside the EU are done lawfully. Where we transfer personal data outside of the EU to a country not determined by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data, the transfers will be under an agreement which covers the EU requirements for the transfer of personal data outside the EU, such as the European Commission approved standard contractual clauses, or under other appropriate safeguards. 

To obtain a copy of the relevant adequate safeguards, you can send us your request using the details in Section

“How to contact us?”  Contact Us: 00 33 666250654 or contact@lesac.store

​

8. How do we protect your personal data?

​

All your personal data is strictly confidential and will only be accessible, on a need-to-know basis, to duly authorized personnel of Le Sac and third providers acting on our behalf with appropriate technical and organizational security safeguards.

​

The Le Sac has implemented security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access and use. We follow appropriate security procedures in the storage and disclosure of your personal data so as to prevent unauthorized access by third parties and to prevent your data being accidentally lost. We limit those who access your personal data to those who have a genuine business need to access it.  Those who do access your data will be subject to a duty of confidentiality towards Le Sac.

​

We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data security breach. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected data security breach where we are legally required to do so.

​

We also require those parties to whom we transfer your personal data to comply with the same. However, unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. So, we cannot ensure the security of your personal data transmitted by you to us via the internet. Any such transmission is at your own risk and you acknowledge and agree that we shall not be responsible for any unauthorized use, distribution, damage or destruction of Your Information, except to the extent we are required to accept such responsibility under the law. Once we have received your personal data, we will use the security measures abovementioned.
