How we use your personal information
- Providing Products and Services. We use your personal information to provide you with the Services in order to perform our contract with you, including to process your payments, fulfil your orders, send you notifications related to your account, purchases, returns, exchanges or other transactions, to create, maintain and otherwise manage your account, to arrange shipping, to facilitate any returns and exchanges, and to enable other features and functionalities related to your account (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR — performance of a contract).
- Marketing and advertising. We may use your personal information for marketing and promotional purposes, such as to send marketing, advertising and promotional communications by email, SMS or post, and to show you advertisements for products or services. Where these activities rely on advertising cookies or trackers (targeted advertising, advertising measurement, remarketing — including via Google, Meta, TikTok or Microsoft), they are based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Article 82 of the French Data Protection Act (Loi Informatique et Libertés)), which you may withdraw at any time via the Site's cookie manager. For commercial communications sent to our existing customers about products similar to those they have already purchased, we rely on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), and you may object to this at any time.
- Security and fraud prevention. We use your personal information to detect, investigate or take action regarding possible fraudulent, illegal or malicious activity. If you choose to use the Services and create an account, you are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure. We strongly recommend that you do not share your username, password or other access details with anyone. If you believe your account has been compromised, please contact us immediately. If you reside in the EEA, the legal basis for these data processing activities is our legitimate interest in keeping our website secure for you and other customers, in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

This is in our legitimate interest in order to be responsive to you, to provide effective services to you and to maintain our business relationship with you, in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Cookies and consent
Like many websites, we use Cookies on our Site. We use Cookies to operate and improve our Site and our Services (including to remember your actions and preferences), to run analytics and better understand how users interact with the Services, and, with your consent, for advertising purposes.
Your consent. On your first visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a consent banner (managed by our consent management tool, Consentmo) allows you to accept, refuse or customise the placement of non-essential cookies. No audience measurement or advertising cookies are placed before you have made your choice. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time via the "Manage my cookies" link/widget available on the Site. Your choice is stored for a maximum of 12 months, after which you will be asked again.
Categories of cookies used: strictly necessary cookies (site operation, basket, checkout — not subject to consent); preference cookies; statistics cookies (audience measurement); marketing cookies (personalised advertising and campaign measurement). The detailed and up-to-date list of the cookies used can be found on our Cookie Policy page.

Our website also recognises the Global Privacy Control signal (Global Privacy Control, GPC), which allows you to opt out of certain uses or disclosures of your information. If you notify us of your preference via the GPC signal, we will treat it as a valid request to opt out of sharing or targeted advertising for the associated browser or device and, if we are able to link the device sending the signal to a Shopify account, we will also apply the request to the account.
