Your personal information could come to be handled by a so-called data processor that helps in our communication with you. This data processor will only handle your personal information in accordance with the guidelines for which it was collected. We use third party payments providers to handle payments via our Website. In order to administer the order and for the performance of the agreement between you and us, we will disclose information regarding your name, address, order information, and debit or credit card information and device used for purchase to the third-party payment provider. As stated above, the payment providers are data controllers for their own processing of your personal data in order to process payments.

4.2 Delivery and Storage Partners and other Third Party Service Providers

In order to handle orders, we use third party delivery service and storage partners. As such, for the purposes of administering the order and to fulfil our contractual obligations in relation to you we will share your personal data, including your name, address and telephone number in addition to order information with our delivery and storage partners. Moreover, we may for the purposes outlined above in Section 2 engage additional third-party service providers not mentioned in this section, e.g. to carry out customer surveys and to send tailored offers. The third-party service providers that we engage are contractually obligated to only process your personal data in accordance with our strict instructions and may not use your data for their own purposes. Additionally, they are obligated to implement technical and organizational security measures to protect and safeguard your personal data.

4.3 Group Companies

For the purposes outlined above, we may also disclose your personal data to companies within the Happy Socks group. The disclosure to the group companies is based on the same legal basis as the processing as such.

4.4 Other Third Parties

Finally, we may process and disclose the personal data that you have provided to other third parties than outlined above in order to fulfil our legitimate interest of complying with applicable law and regulations and lawful regulatory requests or relevant orders from competent courts and public authorities and to establish, exercise and defend legal claims. Additionally, we may disclose your personal data to third parties in case of a merger or a transfer of assets in order to fulfil our legitimate interest of carrying out such merger or transfer of assets.

6. TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA OUTSIDE THE EU/EEA

We use third party delivery and storage partners which are based in China, Japan and the U.S. As such, your personal data may in connection with a purchase be transferred outside the EU/EEA to countries which do not have the same level of protection for personal data as countries within the EU/EEA. In order to ensure that your personal data is adequately protected, we ensure that there are appropriate safeguards in place by way of data transfer agreements which include standard data protection clauses adopted by the EU Commission.
