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 we collect, use and share your personal data?
We will only process your personal data where we have a legal basis to do so. The legal basis will depend on the reasons we have collected and need to use your personal data for.
In most cases we will need to process your personal data so we can fulfil your order.
We may also process your personal data for one or more of the following:
We will not retain your data for longer than is necessary to fulfil the purpose it is being processed for. To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data.
We must also consider periods for which we might need to retain personal data in order to meet our legal obligations or to deal with complaints, queries and to protect our legal rights in the event of a claim being made.
When we no longer need your personal data, we will securely delete or destroy it. We will also consider if and how we can minimise over time the personal data that we use, and if we can anonymise your personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you or identify you, in which case we may use that information without further notice to you.
How do we 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 do we share your data with third parties?
In certain circumstances, we may share your personal data with third parties.
- Logistic providers:We use logistic providers (such as UPS, TNT, SDA) to process your personal data for the purpose of order delivery;
- Payment providers:We use payment providers (such as PayPal and Multisafepay) to process your personal data for the purpose of facilitating order payments;
- 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 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.

We use appropriate business systems and procedures to protect and safeguard the personal data you give us.

We may disclose your information to trusted third parties for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We require all third parties to have appropriate technical and operational security measures in place to protect your personal data, in line with Italian and EU law on data protection rules.

What are your Data Protection Rights?
Under certain circumstances, by law you have the right to:
- Request information about whether we hold personal information about you, and, if so, what that information is and why we are holding/using it.
- Request access (art. 15 Regulation UE n. 2016/679) to your personal information (commonly known as a "data subject access request"). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
- Request correction (art. 16 Regulation UE n. 2016/679) of the personal information that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected.
- Request erasure (art. 17 Regulation UE n. 2016/679) of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal information where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it.
- Object to processing (art. 21 Regulation UE n. 2016/679) of your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
- Object to automated decision-making including profiling (art. 21 Regulation UE n. 2016/679), that is not to be subject of any automated decision-making by us using your personal information or profiling of you.
- Request the restriction (art. 18 Regulation UE n. 2016/679) of processing of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
- Request transfer (art. 20 Regulation UE n. 2016/679) of your personal information in an electronic and structured form to you or to another party (commonly known as a right to “data portability”). This enables you to take your data from us in an electronically useable format and to be able to transfer your data to another party in an electronically useable format.
- Withdraw consent. In the limited circumstances where you may have provided your consent to the collection, processing and transfer of your personal information for a specific purpose, you have the right to withdraw your consent for that specific processing at any time. Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your information for the purpose or purposes you originally agreed to, unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so in law.
- Lodge a complaint (art. 51 Regulation UE n. 2016/679) to the Authority for the Protection of Personal Data.
If you want to exercise any of these rights, then please submit a request using the following link
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.
