We collect your personal information indirectly when you browse on our website, through cookies, pixels and web beacons. You can manage your cookie preferences by clicking on the Widget at the bottom left corner of any page.

- To process your orders and payments, provide you with a seamless shopping experience, and communicate important updates and offers to you.
- To enhance website interactivity and gather statistics, especially regarding the effectiveness of our prospecting campaigns.
- With your consent, to analyze your preferences and habits, customize and optimize your experience on our sites, including by enabling you to access certain functions.
WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION ?
Our internal teams process your personal information. Where we manage Leif Vollebekk or Leif Vollebekk's newsletter, we may share your information with them and their team. In addition, we ask service providers to help us provide you with our services.
We engage service providers in various categories, including:
- Website hosting
- eCommerce
- Shipping companies
- Vendors and consultants
- Credit card or payment processing companies
- Conducting surveys and communications (for example, social media platforms and newsletters)
- Assisting in fraud prevention
We only allow our service providers and a limited number of their staff to access your personal information for the specific services they provide. We ask that they handle your information exclusively for us, following strict rules, especially around security and confidentiality.
We ask that our service providers delete your personal information when they no longer need it to provide the services. Sometimes, we may allow them to keep data that doesn’t say who you are, such as statistics. We don’t let them share your information with others or use it for their own marketing.
In some cases, the law allows us to share your personal information to third parties without your consent, for example, to respond to a request from a government authority, to prevent fraud, to protect our rights.
In addition, we may transfer your personal information and other information to a third party in the event of any reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, brands, affiliates, subsidiaries or other assets.
If we otherwise intend to disclose your personal information to a third party, we will let you know and ask for your permission.
HOW DO WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
We put in place physical, organizational, contractual and technological security measures to protect your personal information and other information from loss or theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification. We’ve made sure that staff access to your personal information is limited on a “need to know basis”.
That said, no method is 100% secure or error-free, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you have reasons to believe that your interactions with us are no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of any information that you provided to us has been compromised), please contact us immediately in the How to Contact Us section.
WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS?
We will take steps to ensure that your personal information is kept as accurate, complete and up-to-date as reasonably necessary. To make sure that the information we hold on you is accurate and up to date, please inform us immediately of any change in your personal information.

|
access and rectify it |
withdraw your consent |

You may request access to the personal information that we hold about you, and ask that any necessary corrections be made, where applicable, as authorized or required by law. Note that in certain cases, our website enables you to view and modify personal information directly. |
You may also withdraw your consent to the use or communication of your personal information, but this may mean that we will no longer be able to provide you with certain services. |
We may ask a proof of identity to fulfill your request. Any such identifying information will be used only for this purpose.
