The starting point is that information is collected directly from you, but we may also receive information from other sources, including if third parties disclose this in connection with the purchase of gifts and similar.

Why does Georg Jensen process your personal data?

Georg Jensen processes your personal data for the following purposes:

Execution of orders in the web shop

For the purpose of completing and delivering orders that you make in Georg Jensen's web shop, Georg Jensen processes information about you in order to fulfil the contract, for example, we will ask for your e-mail address so that we can send you a confirmation and a receipt of your purchase.

Queries about products

In order to respond to queries that you submit in connection with price, stock and dealer status, we have a legitimate business interest to have your email address or telephone number in order to respond properly to your query.

Credit card data

A payment services provider processes your credit or debit card information on our behalf in order to fulfil a contract with you to provide the goods you have ordered. With your permission, the payment services provider will also save this information so that you can reuse it at a later date. You can read more about how we process your credit card information in connection with purchases in our Terms and Conditions.

If you do not wish to receive these e-mails and newsletters, you can unsubscribe by using the unsubscribe link in the newsletter/ communication or by contacting us by e-mail at onlinestore@georgjensen.com.

In general, our legal basis for processing your personal data for this purpose will be Georg Jensen’s legitimate interest in direct marketing to you.

Customer service and communication

When you contact customer service or communicate with us in a different context, we collect and process the information you provide in order to deal with your enquiries and we rely on our legitimate interest to deliver customer services to process this information.

Other purposes

In addition to the above purposes, Georg Jensen may also process your personal information based on Georg Jensen's legitimate interests in carrying out other marketing, evaluating and developing our products and services as well as compiling statistics and analyses, and also for compliance with legal requirements or for determining or defending legal claims.

Sensitive personal data

If you give us sensitive personal data for any reason Georg Jensen will only keep that information if it is absolutely necessary. The data will be stored in a secure manner and access will be limited to those Georg Jensen personnel who have a business need to know.

With whom does Georg Jensen share your personal information?

Georg Jensen does not disclose your personal information to third parties unless it is necessary for the fulfilment of our contract with you, for example to payment services providers to process your payment, and carriers in connection with the delivery of orders, or we have your permission.

However, under certain circumstances and pursuant to the law, it may be necessary to disclose personal data to public authorities or the police. For example, information may be disclosed to the police in case of suspicion of credit card fraud.

We also share personal data with other companies within the Georg Jensen group. You can see a list of Georg Jensen A/S group companies here.

In certain instances, Georg Jensen transfers your personal data to Georg Jensen's suppliers who provide services on behalf of Georg Jensen, for example, in connection with the sending of newsletters. These suppliers process personal data on behalf of Georg Jensen and in accordance with Georg Jensen's instructions and thus cannot process personal data for their own purposes.

International transfer of data

Any electronic personal data transferred to countries or territories outside the EU will only be placed on systems complying with measures giving equivalent protection of personal rights either through international agreements or contracts approved by the European Union. Our website is also accessible from overseas so on occasion some personal data (for example in a newsletter or any details on My Georg Jensen) may be accessed from overseas. If you ask us to access your personal data, for example when visiting one of our overseas shops, you are giving your explicit consent to the international transfer of your data.

Security

It is important for Georg Jensen that your personal information is kept safe and confidential. The access to all registered user data at www.georgjensen.com/en-gb is limited to trusted Georg Jensen employees and specific service providers such as payment services providers, IT services providers or couriers, and our security measures are continuously monitored to ensure that information about our users is handled properly and with due regard to the user's rights.

Unfortunately, however, it is not possible to guarantee 100% security for data transfers over the internet. When data is sent and stored electronically, there is always a risk that unauthorised persons could gain access to protected data before reaching our servers. So, although Georg Jensen tries to protect your personal data in the best possible way, we cannot ensure or guarantee the security of any data. Thus, you send your data at your own risk.
