We never sell nor rent your personal data to other companies for marketing or other purposes. For the purpose listed above and, on a need-to-know basis, we can share your personal data with:

The personal data we are collecting about you will be used by us and might be communicated for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy to other Clarins group companies on a case-by-case basis and as necessary and in particular to our parent company in France and to Clarins Pte Ltd in Singapore. This may involve your personal data being communicated outside of your jurisdiction of residence where it may be subject to access by local authorities in accordance with the laws of that jurisdiction. Each of those companies may also process and use your personal data for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy independently and on their own behalf.

Some of our service providers or Clarins group companies may be located outside of Australia or otherwise outside of the European Economic Area (EEA), including in countries that do not provide the same level of data protection as in your country of residence (e.g., the United States) and your personal information may be subject to access by local authorities in accordance with the law of the local jurisdiction. In such a case, we ensured that:

- we entered into appropriate data transfer agreements conforming to the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the European Commission;
- we rely on the Binding Corporate Rules (BCR) of our service providers approved by competent authorities, where applicable;
- such transfer is necessary for the purposes and based on the legal basis described in section 4 of this Privacy Policy;
- we have otherwise complied with other applicable legal requirements relating to the transfer.

In addition, where required, we have implemented supplementary measures (contractual, technical or organisational) to ensure the validity of the transfer.
To the extent provided by applicable law, you have a right to contact us for more information about the safeguards we have put in place to ensure an adequate protection of your personal data when it is transferred as mentioned above.

In most cases, personal data is stored electronically in a range of systems which are managed by us or third parties acting on our behalf. Clarins takes appropriate technical and organisational measures, in relation to the nature of data and risks, to preserve the security and confidentiality of your personal data and, in particular, to prevent them from being altered, disclosed or transmitted to any unauthorised parties.

This may include practices such as limited access by members of staff who, by virtue of their duties, are authorised to access data, contractual guarantees from third-party providers, privacy impact assessments when required, internal reviews of our practices and privacy policies and/or implementation of physical and/or systematic security measures (secure access, authentication process, backup, antivirus, firewall, pseudonymization, encryption, etc.).

We do not knowingly collect nor process personal data from minors.

If we are aware of such collection and processing, we will take immediately appropriate measures to contact the person and delete this personal data from our servers and/or those of our service providers.
