What kind of personal information does Wearunique.com use?

When you make an order, you are asked for your name, postal address, telephone number and email address. Data for the order's payment are handled directly by our partners Paypal and Multisafepay.

To make it easier to manage your orders, you can open a user account. This allows you to save your personal settings, review previous purchased products and manage future purchasing.

When you visit our websites, even if you do not place an order, we may collect certain information, such as your IP address, which browser you’re using, and information about your computer’s operating system, application version, language settings and pages that have been shown to you. When you place an order, our system registers through which means and from which websites you have made your order.

We may also receive information about you when you use certain social media services.

Why does Wearunique.com collect, use and share your personal data?

• Orders: First and foremost, we use your personal data to complete and administer your online order and to comply with all legal requirements and tax administration.
• Customer service: Sharing your details with our customer service staff allows us to answer to your requests and to any questions you might have about your order.
• Product reviews: We may use your contact information to invite you by email to write a product review after your order.
• Account administration: We offer a user account facility on our website. We use the information you give us to administer this, allowing you to manage your orders, take advantage of special offers, make future orders more easily and manage your personal settings. Managing personal settings allows you to keep and share lists. It also allows you to see any reviews you have submitted about products you purchased.
• Marketing activities: We also use your information for marketing activities, as permitted by law. For example:
• When you place an order with us or set up a user account, we may use your contact information to send you news of similar products. With your consent – if consent is required under local law – we may also send you other regular newsletters by email. You can opt out, or unsubscribe, from marketing communications at any time using the "Unsubscribe" link in each newsletter, or you can administer your subscriptions through your account (if you've created one).
• Based on the information you share with us, individualized offers may be shown to you on the Wearunique.com website or on third-party websites, including social media sites.
• Other communications: There may be other times when we get in touch by email or by phone, depending on the contact information you share with us. There could be a number of reasons for this:
• We may need to respond to and handle requests you have made.
• If you have not finalized an order online, we may email you a reminder to continue with your order. We believe that this additional service is useful to you because it allows you to carry on with a purchase without having to search for the products details from scratch.
• When you use our services, we may send you a questionnaire or invite you to provide a review about your experience with Wearunique.com.
• Improving our services: Finally, we use personal data for analytical purposes, to improve our services, to enhance the user experience, and to improve the functionality and quality of our online services.

How does Wearunique.com use social media?

We use social media to promote our products and to promote, improve and facilitate our own services. For example, we have integrated social media plugins into the Wearunique.com website. So when you click on one of the buttons and register with your social media account, information is shared with your social media provider, and possibly presented on your social media profile to be shared with others in your network.

We may also enable you to sign in to Wearunique.com services with your social media accounts. Your social media provider will be able to tell you more about how they use and process your data in such cases.

How does Wearunique.com share your data with third parties?

In certain circumstances, we may share your personal data with third parties.

• Third-party service providers: We may use service providers (such as "data processors") to process your personal data strictly on our behalf. This processing would be for purposes such as facilitating order payments, sending out marketing material or for analytical support services. These processors are bound by confidentiality clauses and are not allowed to use your personal data for their own purposes or any other purpose.
• Competent authorities: We disclose personal data to law enforcement and other governmental authorities insofar as it is required by law or is strictly necessary for the prevention, detection or prosecution of criminal acts and fraud.

How does Wearunique.com make use of mobile devices?

We use versions of our regular website that have been optimized for mobile. These mobile websites process the personal details you give us in much the same way as our website does.
