Where we Store your Personal Information

The information that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers or business partners. Such staff may be engaged in, among other things, the fulfilment of your order, the processing of your payment details and the provision of support and associated services. Our suppliers and business partners may also transfer, store, use and otherwise process your information outside the EEA for the purpose of fulfilling their obligations to you and to provide you with information, goods and services. By using our sites, stores, social media and submitting your information during the purchase of items or participation in competitions and other promotions, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing inside and outside the EEA as stated above. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this policy.

Handling your Personal Data Online

If you are interested in placing an order with us online, but are concerned about how safe and reliable it will be, here is some information about how we manage and protect your data:

• Our secure server software encrypts information to ensure your transactions with us are private and protected as they travel over the Internet. All credit card transactions are handled by an approved third party on a secure server using a minimum of 128-bit encryption. Seraphine is fully PCI Compliant.
• When you make a purchase from our website, we collect certain personal information from you (for example: your name, email address, payment address and details). All such personal information is held on secure servers and will be treated as fully confidential.
• If you choose to pay for your order using Klarna (subject to availability), we will share your name, email address, payment address and payment details with Klarna, in order for Klarna to assess whether you qualify for their payment methods and to tailor those payment methods for you. Klarna will be a “data controller” in respect of your personal data and such data shall be processed in line with applicable data protection law and in accordance with the information in Klarna's privacy statement.
  Further information and Klarna’s user terms you can find here. General information on Klarna can be found here.
