Financial information

With whom does Georg Jensen share your personal information?

Georg Jensen does not disclose your personal information to third parties without your permission. However, disclosure may be made if the disclosure is necessary to fulfil a contract to which you are a party, for example to carriers in connection with the delivery of orders.

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.

In certain instances, Georg Jensen transfers your personal data to Georg Jensen's suppliers who provide services on behalf of Georg Jensen, for example billing, sales, marketing, IT support, advertising, analytics, research, product service support, shipping and purchase order fulfilment, data storage, validation, security, fraud prevention, payment processing, and legal services. 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.

In addition, we may disclose your personal data to other Georg Jensen group entities in order to deliver products and services to you, to ensure a consistent level of service across our products and services, to enhance our products, services and your customer experience.

A number of Georg Jensen's suppliers who process personal data on behalf of Georg Jensen are located outside the EU/EEA. However, we only transfer personal data to suppliers who can provide the necessary guarantees that an adequate level of data protection is in place. Therefore, your personal data will only be transferred to a recipient outside the EU/EEA, if the recipient is certified under the US-EU Privacy Shield Framework (USA only), or if we have entered into a standard contract approved by the EU Commission with the party concerned.
