This data is collected directly from you when you browse the website, create an account, place an order, sign up to a waiting list or interact in any way with Ami-Amour.

ARTICLE 3 – PURPOSES OF PROCESSING AND LEGAL BASES

Personal data is collected and processed for the following purposes:

  • management of orders, payments and delivery
    Legal basis: performance of the contract; 

  • management of the customer relationship, after-sales service and complaints
    Legal basis: performance of the contract and legitimate interest; 

  • management of user accounts
    Legal basis: performance of the contract; 

  • management of waiting list registrations and sending of availability notifications
    Legal basis: legitimate interest, or consent where required by the applicable regulations; 

  • sending of commercial communications (email, SMS, notifications)
    Legal basis: consent, or legitimate interest where permitted by the applicable regulations (in particular for similar products or services); 

  • improvement of the website, statistical analysis and audience measurement
    Legal basis: legitimate interest and, where required, consent (non-essential cookies); 

  • compliance with legal and regulatory obligations (invoicing, accounting, fraud prevention)

ARTICLE 3 BIS – PERSONALISATION PHOTOS AND CONTENT

1. Nature of the processing. When you order a personalised product, you send us one or more photos, images or texts (the “Personalisation Content”). This Content may contain personal data relating to you or to third parties (faces, first names, dates, life events).

2. Legal basis and purposes. Personalisation Content is processed on the basis of the performance of the contract (Article 6.1.b of the GDPR), for the following purposes only:

  • manufacturing the personalised product ordered (preparation of the print or engraving file, quality control); 

  • after-sales service: handling complaints, remanufacturing or replacing the product in the event of a defect; 

  • providing proof of the proper performance of the order in the event of a dispute. 

Your Personalisation Content is never used for advertising, direct marketing or algorithm-training purposes, and is never published, unless you give us your express, written and separate authorisation.

3. Retention period. Personalisation Content is kept for as long as necessary to produce and deliver your order, and then for six (6) months from delivery, so that we can handle a complaint or remanufacture the product in the event of a defect. At the end of this period, it is deleted from our systems and we ask our processors to delete it. After this period, remanufacturing will require you to provide us with your photo again. Order data (excluding photos) remains archived in accordance with Article 6 of this policy.

4. Recipients and processors. Personalisation Content is accessible only:

  • to our personalisation service provider TailorKit, published by Ecomate, which handles the upload, preview and temporary hosting of the files; 

  • to our e-commerce platform Shopify; 

  • to our partner manufacturing workshops, located in particular in the Netherlands (personalised phone cases) or in China (other personalised products), which receive only the file needed to produce the product ordered. 

5. Transfers outside the European Union. Personalised phone cases are manufactured in the Netherlands, within the European Union: their manufacture does not involve any transfer of your Personalisation Content outside the European Union. The manufacture of other personalised products may require your Personalisation Content to be sent to a workshop located outside the European Union (in particular in China). This transfer is necessary for the performance of the contract concluded between you and AMI-AMOUR, in accordance with Article 49.1.b of the GDPR: without this transmission, the product you have ordered cannot be manufactured. Only the file strictly necessary for production is transmitted; it is not accompanied by your full contact details beyond what is necessary for shipping. Where possible, AMI-AMOUR also puts appropriate contractual safeguards in place for these transfers.

6. Photos depicting third parties. If the Content you send us depicts people other than yourself (family, friends, children), you are solely responsible for having obtained their prior consent (and, in the case of minors, that of their legal representatives), in accordance with image rights (Article 9 of the French Civil Code) and the GDPR. By sending us this Content, you warrant that you have obtained these authorisations. Any person depicted in any Content may exercise their rights under the conditions set out in Article 9 of this policy.

7. Your rights. With regard to your Personalisation Content, you have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction and objection described in Article 9 of this policy (contact: contact@ami-amour.fr). Please note: deleting Content before the product has been manufactured may make it impossible to fulfil your order; we will inform you if this is the case.

ARTICLE 4 – RECIPIENTS OF THE DATA

It may be passed on to the following categories of recipients, strictly within the scope of the purposes described above:

  • to our manufacturing workshops located outside the EU (in particular in China, for personalised products other than phone cases), for personalisation files and shipping data only: these transfers are necessary for the performance of the contract concluded with you (Article 49.1.b of the GDPR) and are supplemented, where possible, by appropriate contractual safeguards. 

Personalised phone cases, for their part, are manufactured in the Netherlands, within the European Union: their manufacture does not involve any transfer of data outside the EU.
