This could include personal information we obtain directly from you as well as from other sources in accordance with applicable legislation. This could also include information about the purchases made when checking out as a guest or when checking out using a profile. The information in your Maui Jim profile is crucial to provide you with the Maui Jim personalized and tailored experience, and in some cases is necessary in order to access to some specific services or to purchase from our website, and thus it needs to be kept up to date for the best experience. 

{read more}

Once you have asked us to create your Maui Jim profile, we will supplement it with personal information such as your purchases, preferences and contact details. In this context, please be aware that we use personal identification information, such as your email address or phone number, to link an interaction or a purchase with your Maui Jim profile. This also applies when checking-out as a guest on our website when making a purchase, as mentioned above. In addition, we may use your date of birth to determine that you are old enough to use our services.

In order to keep your personal information accurate, we will take every reasonable step to ensure that personal information we hold is properly updated. Subject to your applicable privacy legislation you may have the right to have your information rectified at any time, and in any event please let us know if any of your information needs updating or correcting, and we will make our best efforts to detect and correct inaccurate personal information (data cleansing) and delete any duplicated dataset. This may require us to correct typographical errors or inconsistent personal information. 

3. To provide you with tailored customer service and assistance. 

You should have the same unified experience no matter how we communicate. Whether this happens in our stores, on our website, by chat, by phone or by video, and whether you contact us or we contact you, we want to provide you with relevant and tailored customer service.   

For this purpose of providing you the Maui Jim experience, we will collect, store, process, use, disclose and transfer your personal information to be able to identify you. This will allow us to provide you with the tailored assistance you are asking for or to share relevant information with you. In addition, when you contact us, we may retain the personal information you share with us to always provide you with such a customized and personalized experience. This could happen if you are an existing or potential customer. Your personal information will be linked to your Maui Jim profile, if you have requested us to create one, or to a temporary record.

{read more}

We will use the information we have about you to try to identify you when you contact us (whether by phone, video chat, text message, chat, social media, etc.). When we can identify you, we will be able to access personal information available in your Maui Jim profile or in your temporary record, to know when you have previously interacted with us and to provide you with the tailored assistance you are asking for. This could include real-time or subsequent monitoring of your interaction with us (for example on our website or in a store) to identify the products you are looking at or what could be your specific need.

To provide you with adequate customer service, you may be asked if you need further assistance when you are on our website or in a store. On our website, if you do not want to be contacted, kindly close the chat navigation window. This service was implemented for you to enjoy the same service as in one of our physical stores.

If we are not able to identify you, we may create a temporary record to allow you to have a unified purchase experience. Indeed, however you interact with us, we will do our best to avoid asking you again for information you have already shared with us. 

Your personal information, in particular your Maui Jim profile if you have created one or the temporary record we may create about you, could enable our sales associates to contact you directly in relation to the products and services you have purchased or otherwise requested, such as when a product becomes available again or when an order you have placed has been received in store, or to share with you any other information you have requested from us. 

In addition, the monitoring of our interaction (including, with prior notice to you, via voice or video recording -) enables us to improve the quality and safety of our services and to provide you with tailored answers. 

All our customers are important to us. However, some of our customers and potential customers benefit from a more personalized experience due to the important relationship they keep with Maui Jim. Our teams may need to collect and gather information on such customers or potential customers in order to identify personalities who correspond to the image and values of Maui Jim to offer them unique support. This may be the case when you participate in one of our selective projects or when our Sales Associates offers you to participate in events or contacts you for certain special occasions (for your birthdays or for a particular event of your life). 

4. To enable you to receive relevant information and tailored marketing content. 

You will receive information and updates about us either at your request (with your prior consent where required by law) or when we are authorized by law to send you such information and updates directly, for instance after a purchase. Such communication can be global or local, and may include updates about our products and services, notifications, invitations to events, offers, surveys, etc.]

Our communications will be customized and specifically designed to be of interest to you and will be updated with any new personal information linked to your Maui Jim profile. We will thus use your personal information to send you tailored communications or other customized advertisements or marketing campaigns. This use of your information includes some profiling activity. 

If you are a resident of the United States or Guam, please also see Appendix 3 - Specific information on text and instant messages for residents of the United States or Guam residents for more information about how and when we may use your phone number to send you messages.

{read more}

When you share your contact information with us, we may use this personal information to contact you through related communication channels (such as text message, MMS, e-mail, post, internet means, social media or telephone), with your consent where required. You can of course request us not to use a particular channel of communication or opt-out (unsubscribe) from it by applying the opt-out option that will always be shared with you. If you want to stop receiving communication from us via all communication channels, please send an email to privacy@mauijim.com. 

As part of the Maui Jim experience, we will always try to customize and personalize your experience with us. This is why we will use your personal information to send you tailored communications or personalize your journey with us, but only with your prior consent where it is required under applicable privacy legislation.

For these purposes, we will use the information you provide to us (for example your date of birth, your country of residence, your preferred means of contact, etc.) and/or jointly or independently, certain patterns we may observe when interacting with you (for example where you prefer buying our products, what type of products you like, which occasions you are shopping for, etc.). With this information, we may create groups of similar customers (called “persona”) to whom we can decide to offer personalized content and experiences both in inbound or outbound interactions. In this context, we may make inferences about you, as derived from your personal information (profiling). For example, if you always purchase our products from the same store (specific location or online), we may consider this store as your preferred one. This will allow us to customize your experience with Maui Jim based on your interests and shopping habits (i.e. tailored communication). In order to provide you with such customized and personalized experience, in our stores or online, you may be required to log in or identify yourself. 

To enrich your personal information, we may use cookies or other online advertising technologies. Via such technologies, we will collect personal information related to your activities on social media and your browsing activity across different websites and devices (for example: to know if you have visited our website after opening a newsletter you have received). Certain technologies may rely on services provided by other companies acting on their own account (such as social media WeChat, WhatsApp, Baidu, Kakao Talk, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or other online platforms). These companies have their own privacy and cookies policies and the way they use the personal information you share with them will be subject to their rules and not ours. 

Personal information linked to your Maui Jim profile (your identification personal information such as your e-mail address, phone number, social network id, etc.) will enable us to create “lookalike campaigns”, allowing us to find new people who are likely to be interested in our products because they may be similar to you. We may conduct such campaigns through our website, social media or other communication means. When this kind of campaigns are conducted, before it is shared, your personal information is hashed and turned into short fingerprints that cannot be reversed.

Using cookies or other online advertising technologies may also enable us to show you online advertisements that are “contextual” (meaning they are shown according to the webpage you are browsing), or “behavioral” or “interest based” (where advertisements are shown to you based on your interests which we have inferred from your information including demographic, geographic and interest-based data). We may use such advertisements to display products or services that are most relevant to you.

If you no longer want to see customized online advertisements, you may request us to delete your Maui Jim profile or modify your cookie preferences – see “cookies or other online advertising technologies”. In addition, some third-party sites allow you to stop seeing advertisements from specific advertisers, so you may also set your preferences on those websites.

5. To send you non-marketing communications. 

Non-marketing communications may be sent upon your request, and/or may be important for your safety and the security of your personal information. 

You may still receive such communications even when you opt-out from certain marketing communications. The information communicated may be necessary for the correct performance of our contract with you or be mandatory to comply with some of our legal obligations.

• SHOULD YOU ALWAYS SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH US?

You may not always be required to provide us with the personal information that we are asking you for: any personal information that is required is clearly marked as mandatory.

However, if you choose not to provide certain personal information, you may not be able to benefit from some of our services or to purchase certain products for which the provision of such personal information is necessary.

• FOR HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION? 

Our general approach is to retain your personal information only for as long as it is needed. 

When you interact with our customer services, we generally retain the recordings of the calls for 3 months (unless a longer retention period is required by law). 

When we use cookies or other online advertising technologies, your consent shall only be valid for a maximum period of 13 months.  

We may retain personal information for a shorter or longer time, for instance, where we are obliged to do so in accordance with relevant legal, tax and accounting requirements.

When you use our Virtual Try On application, we may retain biometric identifiers or biometric information for the limited period of time required to provide you with the service and shall not exceed six months as long as you consent to such retention, maintain an account with us, and expressly request to save your virtual profile to your account. If you do not maintain an account with us, we may retain biometric identifiers or biometric information for up to six months, but we will not be able to retrieve or connect your information to your identity. After six months, all biometric identifiers or biometric information we may have collected from you shall no longer be retrievable or readable by our operating systems or applications.

{read more}

We will delete or destroy your personal information without delay once it is no longer necessary (e.g., if the purposes of collection/use of the personal information have been accomplished, if the statutory retention period expires) in a way that prevents such personal information from being restored or recovered. If printed on paper, the personal information will be destroyed by shredding, incinerating, or some other similar method and, if saved in electronic form, the personal information will be destroyed by technical methods which ensure that the personal information cannot be restored or recovered thereafter.

In specific circumstances we may also retain your personal information for longer according to the applicable statute of limitations so that we have an accurate record of your dealings with us in the event of any complaints or challenges.

It is also possible that certain information which we consider to be important for Maui Jim history or patrimony may be retained by us for longer periods exclusively for archival purposes, for historical purposes or for statistical purposes. This may be the case when some of our notable customers have benefited from our services or bought our products.

• HOW DO WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We, Maui Jim, are strongly committed to keeping your personal information safe. 

To do so, we design our services with your safety in mind. Within our group, we have dedicated teams managing and ensuring the security and privacy of your personal information. We have adopted specific technical and organizational security measures, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, to protect personal information against accidental or unlawful destruction, accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access. 

For example, whenever personal information is passed between your device and our servers, we ensure that it is encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer (“SSL”) and/or other security methods. We implement Hyper Text Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer (“HTTPS”) in order to protect your connection to our website. All your personal information is stored on secured servers.

We have also established a specialized personal information security management system. For example, we strictly control the scope of authorization of our employees who have access to the personal information that we collect and process. We thus disclose or provide access to your personal information only on a strict need to know basis to our employees or to the third parties listed in the section With whom do we share your personal information?, and only through secured systems. We regularly review our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against any unauthorized access and use.

We conduct security and privacy protection training courses and tests on a regular basis to enhance our employees’ awareness of the importance of protecting personal information. We take commercially reasonable steps to make sure that our business partners and third-party service providers are able to protect your personal information. Our employees and those of our business partners and third-party service providers who have access to your personal information are subject to enforceable contractual obligations of confidentiality and specific contractual privacy provisions.

In the event of a security incident resulting in any breach of personal information, as qualified by law, we have an emergency response plan in place to prevent the expansion of such security incidents. In addition, we will report such personal information breach to the relevant supervisory authority as required by applicable law, and inform you via an appropriate channel as and where required by applicable law. 

Please also note that in order to keep your personal information secure, we may from time to time, have to reset your password. 

However, you should be aware that no service can be completely secure, and you play a key role in keeping your personal information safe. For the best possible protection of your personal information outside the limits of our control, your devices should be protected (e.g. by updated antivirus software) and your internet service providers should take appropriate measures for the security of personal information transmission over the network (e.g. with firewalls and anti-spam filtering). You accept the inherent security implications of interacting over the Internet and will not hold us or our partners responsible for any security incident or breach of personal information unless it is due to our negligence.

If you have any concerns that your personal information has been put at risk, for example if someone could have found out your password, please contact us as soon as possible.

Where do we store your personal information?

What are your rights regarding your personal information?
 

• WHERE DO WE TRANSFER & STORE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We operate globally and may transfer your personal information to other companies within Kering or to approved partners in locations around the world. We want you to have the best service and customer experience, whether online or in person all over the world. For this purpose, we may have to share your personal information outside the country where you have first shared it with us. When we do so, it will always be for the purposes described in this privacy policy and where we are satisfied with the levels of protection and security implemented in compliance with applicable privacy legislation. This sharing of your personal information is necessary to enable us to perform the contracts we have with you or take steps at your request, prior to entering into a contract, in order to offer you a global customer experience. 

The personal information we collect from you will be mainly stored in servers located in the European Union, United States and Switzerland, where it will be afforded the level of protection required by applicable privacy legislation. However, this may vary depending on the country in which the information is collected or applicable legislation. For more information about the location where your personal information is stored, you can contact us at privacy@mauijim.com (or see How can you contact us?) 

We want to ensure that your personal information is always safely used and available to you, wherever you want to access it and for whatever reason you wish to use it. 

When we share, use, or transfer personal information outside the country in which the information is collected, we will put in place appropriate measures to legitimize such transfer under applicable privacy legislation, which may include, as applicable, obtaining your consent or implementing adequate contractual safeguards. In particular, if we transfer your personal information from the European Union or Switzerland to a country for which no adequation decision has been adopted by the relevant authorities, we use standard contractual clauses approved by the relevant authorities (such as European Commission). You can contact us at privacy@mauijim.com (or see How can you contact us?) for more information about these safeguards including how to obtain copies of this information.

1. Approved partners acting as service providers {read more}  

To use your personal information, we rely on approved partners. All approved partners are bound by an obligation to implement appropriate security measures to protect personal information in their possession, and bound by a strict confidentiality agreement and specific contractual provisions on “how” and “when” they are allowed to collect and use your personal information. Your personal information may be accessible to the following authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis: 

• Kering and other affiliates of our group {read more}  

Our parent company Kering and its affiliates are our main approved partners. They will have access to your personal information but will never use it in contradiction to this privacy policy.

Kering and its affiliates enable us to: offer you our products and services (e.g. via wholesale management and sales processes); provide you with our customer service (e.g. responding when you contact us by phone, mail, text message, chat or social media); manage your Maui Jim profile (e.g. by keeping your information safe and performing IT-related functions attached to your Maui Jim profile); and, through shared services, to manage and better understand our business. 

• Retailers (including online), resellers, franchisees, licensees, delivery providers, fulfilment companies and transaction partners {read more}

These partners mainly enable us to provide you with the products and services you have requested (e.g. ensuring your bank can proceed with payment, or delivering a product you have purchased on our website). 

For sake of clarity, please note that such partners also carry out processing activities in parallel for their own purposes, acting then as data controllers (see Approved partners acting also on their own account below). In this respect, our privacy policy does not extend to the processing activities carried out by these partners where the latter are acting on their own account, as data controller for the performance of their services. 

This can be the case when payment services provider carries out fraud detection processes. These other companies have their own privacy policies in place, so remember that the way they use any personal information you give them will be subject to their rules and not ours.

They can also be involved in creating and/or managing your Maui Jim profile (e.g. collecting your personal information and consent on our behalf so that we can set up your profile, linking your purchase to your Maui Jim profile so you can easily find it again, or providing your personal information when you access your Maui Jim profile).

• Marketing services, advertising providers, communication (email, SMS, MMS) providers {read more}

They help us manage your Maui Jim profile, provide you with relevant information, updates, and tailored marketing content (e.g. by sending you emails based on your previous purchases or on sweepstakes, contests and advertisements you have browsed), and send you non-marketing communications. We may also use postal delivery providers. They enable us to send you any communication and marketing content (e.g. letters and event invitations). 

• IT service providers {read more}

• Provide you with the products and services you have requested (e.g. by managing our e-commerce website, etc.) and manage your Maui Jim  profile (e.g. by making sure it is available at any time when you interact with us, and linking your purchases to it);
• Provide you with relevant customer service (e.g. by allowing you to use chat services);
• Send you relevant information, updates and marketing content (e.g. by sending you tailored emails, SMS, MMS, chat messages etc.);
• Send you non-marketing communications (e.g. by emailing you to verify your identity when you sign up);
• Undertake transactions securely (e.g. by identifying potential behavior that could be a threat to your personal information or guarding against third-party misuse of your payment details to purchase products);
• Assess and better understand our business (e.g. by providing personal information visualization tools); and
• Optimize and manage our website and other means of communication (e.g. by ensuring that our website is always available based on your browsing habits).

These partners enable us to better understand and conduct our business (they include accountants, lawyers and auditors who may need to use your personal information).

2. Approved partners acting also on their own account {read more} 

To use some of your personal information (see “Why do we collect your personal information”), we rely on approved partners. Certain approved partners may be able to determine “why” and “how” your personal information is used.

• Social networks

We manage our fan pages on certain social networks.. We use our fan pages to inform our community about our company, our products, our services and our offerings, as well as about current developments and to communicate with our users. You can send us messages, as well as share, comment or "like" our messages. We process the profiles of users of our products and services (in particular the user's name) and our interactions with them (for example the content of messages or comments) to process the information requests they submit and respond to their questions. The legal basis for such data processing is the provision of the services requested by the user concerned on social network, or if your country of residency doesn’t acknowledge the performance of a contract as a valid legal basis, then please consider that the actual legal basis is your consent when interacting with us via our social networks.

We may also use statistical functions provided by social networks on how our users use our fan page. These data statistics are based on personal data collected during a user's visit, or on the user's interaction with our content. Our legitimate interest in this regard is the improvement and optimization of our fan page, which is also in the interest of our users, or if your country of residency doesn’t acknowledge legitimate interest as a valid legal basis, then please consider that the actual legal basis is your consent when interacting with us via our fan page.

Lastly, social networks enable us to provide you with relevant information and updates, marketing content (e.g. advertisements based on look-alike profiles) and relevant customer service (e.g. when you use social media to contact us). Please be aware that they have their own privacy and cookies policies in place, so the personal information you give them will be subject to their rules and not ours.

• Retailers (including online), resellers, franchisees and licensees {read more}

Certain points of sale, carrying out their business under the Maui Jim name, may act as independent data controllers and are able to determine “why” and “how” they use the personal information you share with them.

5. At your request or for our legitimate interest or compliance with laws and regulations {read more}

You can read more about any of our purposes or the vendors that we use by clicking on ‘Cookie Settings.’ This preference center is accessible at any time through the ‘Cookie Settings’ button located on every page.

When you visit any website, it may store or retrieve information using your browser, mostly in the form of cookies. This information might be personal information about you, your preferences or your device and is mostly used to make the site work as you expect it to. The information does not usually directly identify you, but it can give you a more personalized web experience.

1. What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small piece of data (text file) that a website – when visited by a user – asks your browser to place on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information. Those cookies are set by us and are called first party cookies. We also use third-party cookies – which are cookies from a domain other than that of the website you are visiting – for our advertising and marketing initiatives.

2. Why do we use cookie?

Cookies are used for various purposes, such as allowing the user to navigate between pages seamlessly, implementing the user’s preferences and improving their overall browsing experience, by customizing the content according to their navigation and user profile as a Maui Jim  customer. They can also help ensure that the adverts seen online by the user are more relevant to them and their interests. 

3. What types of cookies do we use?

We use several types of cookies which have different durations. In particular we use: 

• Session cookies, which only last for the duration of a browsing session and facilitate your experience on our website; and
• Persistent cookies, which last for more than one visit and memorize your preferred settings regarding our website.

These cookies can also be categorized as follows, depending on who sets them:

• First party cookies, which are supplied by the publisher of the website you are visiting, so that it functions properly.
• Third party cookies, which are set on the website by third parties, and are intended to collect data in different ways and for several purposes, for example: collection of analytics data and information on social interactions and behaviors, and also for promotional activities.

4. What categories of cookie are on our website? 

The types of cookies used on our website serve different purposes and can fall into one of the categories below. Please to the Preference center to see what type of cookies is relevant. 

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you that amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. This allows us to authenticate and record your sessions, to secure traffic or to detect certain malicious activities. For the website, you can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the website will then not work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.

Performance & analytics cookies

These cookies allow us to collect behavioral data and determine traffic sources, so we can 

• Measure the traffic on the website. They help us to find out which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the website by distinguishing users and sessions, determining new sessions/visits and counting the number of pages viewed in the current session and the recording type. We will also track the traffic source or campaign that explains how you reach our website, via which partners for example, to measure the impact and the effectiveness of our partnership with other merchants or our advertising campaign. 
• Understand by who and how our site is used. Performance and analytics cookies are also used to rationalize traffic counting and user behavior across several platform integrations. They allow us to store visitor custom variable information, test different versions of our website or our content, and allow third-party providers helping us analyze and optimize our content.

Functionality cookies

These cookies enable the personalization of website content by recognizing you and remembering your preferences. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.      

Profiling and targeting cookies

These cookies may be set through our website by us or our advertising partners. They may be used to build a persona based on your navigation and your interests to personalize your experience by providing adapted content, features and products or show you relevant advertisements on other sites. We may also use the information collected through these trackers to push advertisements, on partners' websites or social networks, to people who can share the same interests as you.

They do not directly store personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and devices.

 If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

Social cookies

These cookies are set by a range of social media services that we have added to the site and which enable you to share our content with your friends and networks. They can track your browser across other sites and build a profile based on your interests. This may influence the content and messages you see on other websites you visit. If you do not allow these cookies, you may not be able to use or see these sharing tools.

Chat feature cookies

These cookies are necessary for the activation of the chat functionality allowing us to locate you, to put you in contact with our teams and to give you the possibility of exchanging with us (via chat or video calls). This use will be associated with a monitoring of your experience on the site (including a live monitoring of your navigation on our site) allowing us to assist you as best as possible and to recommend the products that best meet your expectations and preferences. If you do not accept these cookies, the chat functionality will not be accessible.

5. How to customize your cookie settings

When you first visit our website, you are required to accept or decline the use of cookies before proceeding. At any time, you have the option to accept or decline the use of cookies using the on/off settings of the preference center, by clicking on the ‘Cookie Settings’ button located on every page:

Click on the different category headings to find out more and to change our default settings. Please note that blocking some types of cookies may affect your experience of the site and the services we are able to offer.

Please note that if you completely disable cookies from the browser, some of the functionalities might be lost, for example, normal browsing of the site and purchasing activity, while any personalized activity such as the advertising you receive when you visit this website will not be tailored to your interests.

For more information on third-party cookies (e.g. advertising or targeting cookies) and how to disable them directly from the browser instead of through Cookie Settings , we invite you to read the relevant privacy policy and opt-out guidelines which can be found here: https://www.youronlinechoices.com/

6. Do we share data collected through cookies?

We may collect information on our website through cookies and share it with third parties such as social networks or advertising platforms, as well as other companies within Kering, advertising agencies/providers and IT providers (e.g. hosting providers), with your consent where required.

7. Do we sell your personal information? 

Sale of your personal information

If you choose to enable third party cookies via Cookie Settings, third parties (such as approved analytics and advertising partners) will collect your personal information via automated technologies on our websites, primarily in an effort to provide you with content and advertisements that may be of interest to you and on the legal bases set out in this privacy policy. The choice is yours. You may elect not to send your personal information to them at any time.

Please note that deciding not to share your information via third party cookies does not mean you will stop seeing ads, but these ads will not be tailored to you based on information derived from your activities on our websites. 

Please also note that depending on your selection, we may still share your information in ways that are not a “sale” or “sharing” under applicable state laws, such as with our service providers, for our own online advertising purposes. 

If you are a Californian resident you also have the right to submit a Shine the Light Request, which means you may request that we provide you with a list of certain categories of personal information we have disclosed to third parties for their direct marketing purposes during the immediately preceding calendar year, as well as the identity of those third parties.  Any such disclosures will be made consistent with your choices in Cookie Settings.

APPENDIX 1 - Specific information for Australian residents ABOUT THE USE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Maui Jim will collect, hold, use and disclose your personal information for the following primary purposes. 

If you would like more information, you can contact us at  privacy@mauijim.com  (or see How can you contact us?)

1. To provide you with the products and services you have purchased or otherwise requested 

We will use your personal information to manage our relationship with you and to perform our obligations under the contract you conclude with us when you purchase or otherwise request products or services from us. This can cover various activities such as internal accounting, processing your payment or delivery.

{read more} 

To provide you with the products and services you have requested, we will access, collect, store and use your personal information for invoicing, payment management and internal accounting. 

Some of the operations mentioned above can be implemented by partners of ours as identified in section “With whom do we share your personal information?”, in particular the registration, payment and delivery of your order. Your information may be communicated, used or collected directly via the information system of our partner. 

 Certain specific information may be required to provide you with gift cards, customization services, or when you reserve a product or a service, request the repair of a product, or purchase products or services by phone, or on our website or a marketplace. In such cases, we could access, collect, store and use your personal information for delivery, warehouse and return management.

During your visit to our store, we may need to collect your information in order to allow you to access our premises or when you wish to obtain a particular service: request for tax on products or in connection with our after-sales service, etc.

2. To manage your Maui Jim profile. 

Once you have requested us to create your Maui Jim profile, your personal information will be linked to this profile, where we will keep all the information we have on you. This could include personal information we obtain directly from you as well as from other sources in accordance with applicable legislation. This could also include information about the purchases made when checking out as a guest or when checking out using a profile. The information in your Maui Jim profile is crucial to provide you with the Maui Jim personalized and tailored experience, and in some cases is necessary in order to access to some specific services or to purchase from our website, and thus it needs to be kept up to date for the best experience. 

{read more}

Once you have asked us to create your Maui Jim profile, we will supplement it with personal information such as your purchases, preferences and contact details. In this context, please be aware that we use personal identification information, such as your email address or phone number, to link an interaction or a purchase with your Maui Jim profile. This also applies when checking-out as a guest on our website when making a purchase, as mentioned above. In addition, we may use your date of birth to determine that you are old enough to use our services.

In order to keep your personal information accurate, we will take every reasonable step to ensure that personal information we hold is properly updated. Subject to your applicable privacy legislation you may have the right to have your information rectified at any time, and in event please let us know if any of your information needs updating or correcting, and we will make our best efforts to detect and correct inaccurate personal information (data cleansing) and delete any duplicated dataset. This may require us to correct typographical errors or inconsistent personal information. 

3. To provide you with tailored customer service and assistance. 

You should have the same unified experience no matter how we communicate. Whether this happens in our stores, on our website, by chat, by phone or by video, and whether you contact us or we contact you, we want to provide you with relevant and tailored customer service.  

For this purpose of providing you the Maui Jim experience, we will collect, store and use your personal information to be able to identify you. This will allow us to provide you with the tailored assistance you are asking for or to share relevant information with you. In addition, when you contact us, we may retain the personal information you share with us to always provide you with such a customized and personalized experience. This could happen if you are an existing or potential customer. Your personal information will be linked to your Maui Jim profile, if you have requested us to create one, or to a temporary record. 

To provide you with a smooth and enjoyable customer experience, know you better to provide you with tailored answers, and to improve the quality and security of our services, we may rely on your consent, proceed in accordance with our contract with you, or take all reasonable steps to enter into a contract with you, or rely on our legitimate interest to improve our services. {read more} 

We will use the information we have about you to try to identify you when you contact us (whether by phone, video chat, text message, chat, social media, etc.). When we can identify you, we will be able to access personal information available in your Maui Jim  profile or in your temporary record, to know when you have previously interacted with us and to provide you with the tailored assistance you are asking for. This could include real-time or subsequent monitoring of your interaction with us (for example on our website or in a store) to identify the products you are looking at or what could be your specific need.

To provide you with adequate customer service, you may be asked if you need further assistance when you are on our website or in a store. On our website, if you do not want to be contacted, kindly close the chat navigation window. This service was implemented for you to enjoy the same service as in one of our physical stores.

If we are not able to identify you, we may create a temporary record to allow you to have a unified purchase experience. Indeed, however you interact with us, we will do our best to avoid asking you again for information you have already shared with us. 

Your personal information, in particular your Maui Jim profile if you have created one or the temporary record we may create about you, could enable our sales associates to contact you directly in relation to the products and services you have purchased or otherwise requested, such as when a product becomes available again or when an order you have placed has been received in store, or to share with you any other information you have requested from us. In addition, the monitoring of our interaction (including, with prior notice to you, via voice or video recording ) enables us to improve the quality and safety of our services and to provide you with tailored answers. 

All our customers are important to us. However, some of our customers and potential customers benefit from a more personalized experience due to the important relationship they keep with Maui Jim. Our teams may need to collect and gather information on such customers or potential customers in order to identify personalities who correspond to the image and values of Maui Jim to offer them unique support. This may be the case when you participate in one of our selective projects or when our Sales Associates offers you to participate in events or contacts you for certain special occasions (for your birthdays or for a particular event of your life).

4. To enable you to receive relevant information and tailored marketing content. 

[

 You will receive information and updates about us either at your request (with your prior consent where required by law) or when we are authorized by law to send you such information and updates directly, for instance after a purchase. Such communication can be global or local, and may include updates about our products and services, notifications, invitations to events, offers, surveys, etc.

Our communications will be customized and specifically designed to be of interest to you, and will be updated with any new personal information linked to your Maui Jim profile. We will thus use your personal information to send you tailored communications or other customized advertisements or marketing campaigns. This use of your data includes some profiling activity. 

{read more} 

When you share your contact information with us, we may use this personal information to contact you through related communication channels (such as text message, MMS, e-mail, post, internet means, social media or telephone), with your consent where required. You can of course request us not to use a particular channel of communication or opt-out (unsubscribe) from it by applying the opt-out option that will always be shared with you. If you want to stop receiving communication from us via all communication channels, please send an email to privacy@mauijim.com. 

As part of the Maui Jim experience, we will always try to customize and personalize your experience with us. This is why we will use your personal information to send you tailored communications or personalize your journey with us, but only with your prior consent where it is required under applicable privacy legislation. Our communications could include tailored product recommendations we think you might like, personalized marketing content designed to suit your interests, personalized events invitations or, at your request and where available, personalized and customized products. For these purposes, we will use the information you provide to us (for example your date of birth, your country of residence, your preferred means of contact, etc.) and/or jointly or independently, certain patterns we may observe when interacting with you (for example where you prefer buying our products, what type of products you like, which occasions you are shopping for, etc.). With this information, we may create groups of similar customers (called “persona”) to whom we can decide to offer personalized content and experiences both in inbound or outbound interactions. In this context, we may make inferences about you, as derived from your personal information (profiling). For example, if you always purchase our products from the same store (specific location or online), we may consider this store as your preferred one. This will allow us to customize your experience with Maui Jim based on your interests and shopping habits (i.e. tailored communication). In order to provide you with such customized and personalized experience, in our stores or online, you may be required to log in or identify yourself. 

To enrich your personal information, we may use cookies or other online advertising technologies. Via such technologies, we will collect personal information related to your activities on social media and your browsing activity across different websites and devices (for example: to know if you have visited our website after opening a newsletter you have received). Certain technologies may rely on services provided by other companies acting on their own account (such as social media WeChat, WhatsApp, Baidu, Kakao Talk, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or other online platforms). These companies have their own privacy and cookies policies and the way they use the personal information you share with them will be subject to their rules and not ours. 

To enrich your personal information, we can match it with personal information held by others (for example, by sharing and matching your information with information held by trusted partners). This process will only be conducted by using customers’ unique identifiers and reidentification protocols in order to protect the confidentiality of your personal information.

Personal information linked to your Maui Jim profile (your identification personal information such as your e-mail address, phone number, social network id, etc.) will enable us to reach you on third-party platforms or to create “lookalike campaigns”, allowing us to find new people who are likely to be interested in our products because they may be similar to you. We may conduct such campaigns through our website, social media or other communication means such as search engine. When this kind of campaigns are conducted, before it is shared, your personal information is hashed and turned into short fingerprints that cannot be reversed.

Using cookies or other online advertising technologies may also enable us to show you online advertisements that are “contextual” (meaning they are shown according to the webpage you are browsing), or “behavioral” or “interest based” (where advertisements are shown to you based on your interests which we have inferred from your information including demographic, geographic and interest-based data). We may use such advertisements to display products or services that are most relevant to you.

If you no longer want to see customized online advertisements, you may request us to delete your Maui Jim profile or modify your cookie preferences – see “cookies or other online advertising technologies”. In addition, some third-party sites allow you to stop seeing advertisements from specific advertisers, so you may also set your preferences on those websites.

5. To send you non-marketing communications. 

Non-marketing communications may be sent upon your request, and/or may be important for your safety and the security of your personal information. 

You may still receive such communications even when you opt-out from certain marketing communications. The information communicated may be necessary for the correct performance of our contract with you or be mandatory to comply with some of our legal obligations.

 {read more}    

Non-marketing communications can include, but are not limited to: emailing you to verify your identity when you sign up to our services; emailing you for password and/or username reset; notifying you that a particular service has been or will be suspended for maintenance or terminated; notifying you of an upgrade, a rectification or an incident affecting our services that may involve your personal information; notifying you of an update to our privacy policy or Terms of Use; or informing you about any products or services you have requested or purchased. 

We will never contact you to ask for your password. Please be aware if you receive any request for this personal information.

6. To manage our social networks  

Maui Jim manages “Fan” pages available on several social networks. We may need to process the information made available by the different platforms or when you interact with our pages and publications.

{read more}

When, as a user, you decide to interact with our social media pages (e.g. when you follow one of our pages, when you click "Like" on Facebook or "Follow" on Instagram or add a reaction to a post, when you "share" or add a "comment", etc.), we have access to public information in your profile. Your information is used for the purpose of interacting with you through the social network in question or to establish analyzes or statistics on the use of our pages or on the performance of our communications. Our services may remove your comments if they do not comply with our policies on the use of social networks (e.g. if your comments are insulting, illegal or malicious). 

When you visit our “Fan” page, when you do not have an account or are not logged in to the relevant social network, we do not collect any personal information about you, except for the aggregated data provided to us by each social network.

7. To conduct our business securely and protect our activities and personnel. 

To deliver our products and services safely to you, perform our contract properly or comply with some of our legal obligations, we will implement fraud prevention and detection measures. Such measures will allow us to adequately perform our contract with you and/or protect our legitimate interests in defending ourselves against fraud. We may notably implement measures to ensure that you are complying with our terms and conditions for sales, available on this website, offers and programs, and to prevent and detect non-compliance or fraud by you. This may include reviewing and assessing your dealings with us, your eligibility to participate in certain sales, offers and programs, your compliance with the terms and conditions of such sales, offers and programs, and undertaking enforcement action and/or disciplinary action where such non-compliance or fraud is suspected or identified. 

{read more}

We may use administrative and technical measures to protect, our website, our systems, our networks, transactions occurring on our website or in our stores, and any other necessary means to protect the personal information we may access or store. For this purpose, we may also be required to verify your identity or to take note of any suspicious or actual non-compliance with our terms and conditions or fraud we incurred with respect to your dealings with us. Such measures may also be implemented for compliance purposes or to avoid sharing your personal information with any untrusted third parties. 

In addition, we may implement certain measures to protect and defend our rights and property, our employees and our business partners in compliance with applicable laws, regulations and international conventions. For example, we can monitor our inbound and outbound interaction with our customer service (including via voice or video recording, with prior notice to you). 

8. To assess and better understand our business. 

To manage our activities, perform our obligations under our contract with you and comply with our legal obligations, we may need to access and use some of your personal information for finance, management or legal purposes, or business-related analytics & market research activities. 

For example, this could occur when we use the invoices we have issued in relation to your purchases for compliance or accountability purposes, or when we analyze personal information to understand the characteristics of our customers (what is the gender proportion, the average age etc.). 

In certain limited circumstances, such activity may be based on our legitimate interest when related to business analytics & market research activities

 {read more}   

Certain activities which are required when conducting a business may involve the use of your personal information. This could include internal processes (such as finance control, accounting, stock management, production management, internal or external audit), certain legal obligations (for example, record-keeping or tax declaration), or analyses conducted in case of a merger or acquisition. 

We may also conduct various business-related analytics & market research activities, which may require us to access or otherwise use some of your personal information, or to send you surveys or customer satisfaction questions in order to gather new or additional information. This notably enables us to analyze and learn how our customers use and interact with us in order to improve products, services and our business in general. It is also important for us to conduct operations that allow us to analyze and measure the performance of our marketing or communications campaigns. This may be the case, for example, when you click on one of our ads on our business partners website or when you make a purchase after viewing one of their ads. Please be aware that to do this, we may use cookies or other online advertising technologies.

1. To optimise and manage our website and other means of communication. 

We may take certain measures involving the use of your personal information to administer, optimize and improve our means of digital or physical communications such as our website, , or face-to-face interaction in our stores.

You should have the same unified experience no matter how we communicate. Whether this happens in our stores, on our website, by chat, by phone or by video, and whether you contact us or we contact you, we want to provide you with relevant and tailored customer service.  

For this purpose of providing you the Maui Jim experience, we will collect, store, process, use, disclose and transfer your personal information to be able to identify you. This will allow us to provide you with the tailored assistance you are asking for or to share relevant information with you. In addition, when you contact us, we may retain the personal information you share with us to always provide you with such a customized and personalized experience. This could happen if you are an existing or potential customer. Your personal information will be linked to your Maui Jim profile, if you have requested us to create one, or to a temporary record. 

To provide you with a smooth and enjoyable customer experience, know you better to provide you with tailored answers, and to improve the quality and security of our services, we may rely on your consent, proceed in accordance with our contract with you, or take all reasonable steps to enter into a contract with you, or rely on our legitimate interest to improve our services.

We will use the information we have about you to try to identify you when you contact us (whether by phone, video chat, text message, chat, social media, etc.). When we can identify you, we will be able to access personal information available in your Maui Jim profile or in your temporary record, to know when you have previously interacted with us and to provide you with the tailored assistance you are asking for. This could include real-time or subsequent monitoring of your interaction with us (for example on our website or in a store) to identify the products you are looking at or what could be your specific need.

To provide you with adequate customer service, you may be asked if you need further assistance when you are on our website or in a store. On our website, if you do not want to be contacted, kindly close the chat navigation window. This service was implemented for you to enjoy the same service as in one of our physical stores.

If we are not able to identify you, we may create a temporary record to allow you to have a unified purchase experience. Indeed, however you interact with us, we will do our best to avoid asking you again for information you have already shared with us. 

Your personal information, in particular your Maui Jim profile if you have created one or the temporary record we may create about you, could enable our sales associates to contact you directly in relation to the products and services you have purchased or otherwise requested, such as when a product becomes available again or when an order you have placed has been received in store, or to share with you any other information you have requested from us. In addition, the monitoring of our interaction (including, with prior notice to you, via voice or video recording) enables us to improve the quality and safety of our services and to provide you with tailored answers. 

All our customers are important to us. However, some of our customers and potential customers benefit from a more personalized experience due to the important relationship they keep with Maui Jim. Our teams may need to collect and gather information on such customers or potential customers in order to identify personalities who correspond to the image and values of Maui Jim to offer them unique support. This may be the case when you participate in one of our selective projects or when our Sales Associates offers you to participate in events or contacts you for certain special occasions (for your birthdays or for a particular event of your life). 

4. To enable you to receive relevant information and tailored marketing content. 

 You will receive information and updates about us either at your request (with your prior consent where required by law) or when we are authorized by law to send you such information and updates directly, for instance after a purchase. Such communication can be global or local, and may include updates about our products and services, notifications, invitations to events, offers, surveys, etc.]

Our communications will be customized and specifically designed to be of interest to you, and will be updated with any new personal information linked to your Maui Jim profile. We will thus use your personal information to send you tailored communications or other customized advertisements or marketing campaigns. This use of your information includes some profiling activity. 

{read more} 

When you share your contact information with us, we may use this personal information to contact you through related communication channels (such as text message, MMS, e-mail, post, internet means, social media or telephone), with your consent where required. You can of course request us not to use a particular channel of communication or opt-out (unsubscribe) from it by applying the opt-out option that will always be shared with you. If you want to stop receiving communication from us via all communication channels, please send an email to privacy@mauijim.com. 

As part of the Maui Jim experience, we will always try to customize and personalize your experience with us. This is why we will use your personal information to send you tailored communications or personalize your journey with us, but only with your prior consent where it is required under applicable privacy legislation. Our communications could include tailored product recommendations we think you might like, personalized marketing content designed to suit your interests, personalized events invitations or, at your request and where available, personalized and customized products. For these purposes, we will use the information you provide to us (for example your date of birth, your country of residence, your preferred means of contact, etc.) and/or jointly or independently, certain patterns we may observe when interacting with you (for example where you prefer buying our products, what type of products you like, which occasions you are shopping for, etc.). With this information, we may create groups of similar customers (called “persona”) to whom we can decide to offer personalized content and experiences both in inbound or outbound interactions. In this context, we may make inferences about you, as derived from your personal information (profiling). For example, if you always purchase our products from the same store (specific location or online), we may consider this store as your preferred one. This will allow us to customize your experience with Maui Jim based on your interests and shopping habits (i.e. tailored communication). In order to provide you with such customized and personalized experience, in our stores or online, you may be required to log in or identify yourself. 

To enrich your personal information, we may use cookies or other online advertising technologies. Via such technologies, we will collect personal information related to your activities on social media and your browsing activity across different websites and devices (for example: to know if you have visited our website after opening a newsletter you have received). Certain technologies may rely on services provided by other companies acting on their own account (such as social media WeChat, WhatsApp, Baidu, Kakao Talk, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or other online platforms). These companies have their own privacy and cookies policies and the way they use the personal information you share with them will be subject to their rules and not ours. 

To enrich your personal information, we can match it with personal information held by others (for example, by sharing and matching your information with information held by trusted partners). This process will only be conducted by using customers’ unique identifiers and reidentification protocols in order to protect the confidentiality of your personal information.

Personal information linked to your Maui Jim profile (your identification personal information such as your e-mail address, phone number, social network id, etc.) will enable us to reach you on third-party platforms or to create “lookalike campaigns”, allowing us to find new people who are likely to be interested in our products because they may be similar to you. We may conduct such campaigns through our website, social media or other communication means such as search engine. When this kind of campaigns are conducted, before it is shared, your personal information is hashed and turned into short fingerprints that cannot be reversed.

Using cookies or other online advertising technologies may also enable us to show you online advertisements that are “contextual" (meaning they are shown according to the webpage you are browsing), or “behavioral" or “interest based" (where advertisements are shown to you based on your interests which we have inferred from your information including demographic, geographic and interest-based data). We may use such advertisements to display products or services that are most relevant to you.

If you no longer want to see customized online advertisements, you may request us to delete your Maui Jim profile or modify your cookie preferences – see "cookies or other online advertising technologies". In addition, some third-party sites allow you to stop seeing advertisements from specific advertisers, so you may also set your preferences on those websites.

5. To send you non-marketing communications. 

Non-marketing communications may be sent upon your request, and/or may be important for your safety and the security of your personal information. 

You may still receive such communications even when you opt-out from certain marketing communications. The information communicated may be necessary for the correct performance of our contract with you or be mandatory to comply with some of our legal obligations.

{read more}

Non-marketing communications can include, but are not limited to: emailing you to verify your identity when you sign up to our services; emailing you for password and/or username reset; notifying you that a particular service has been or will be suspended for maintenance or terminated; notifying you of an upgrade, a rectification or an incident affecting our services that may involve your personal information; notifying you of an update to our privacy policy or Terms of Use; or informing you about any products or services you have requested or purchased. 

We will never contact you to ask for your password. Please be aware if you receive any request for this personal information.

6. To manage our social networks   

Maui Jim  manages “Fan” pages available on several social networks. We may need to process the information made available by the different platforms or when you interact with our pages and publications.

{read more}

When, as a user, you decide to interact with our social media pages (e.g. when you follow one of our pages, when you click "Like" on Facebook or "Follow" on Instagram or add a reaction to a post, when you "share" or add a "comment", etc.), we have access to public information in your profile. Your information is used for the purpose of interacting with you through the social network in question or to establish analyzes or statistics on the use of our pages or on the performance of our communications. Our services may remove your comments if they do not comply with our policies on the use of social networks (e.g. if your comments are insulting, illegal or malicious). 

When you visit our “Fan” page, when you do not have an account or are not logged in to the relevant social network, we do not collect any personal information about you, except for the aggregated data provided to us by each social network.

7. To conduct our business securely and protect our activities and personnel. 

To deliver our products and services safely to you, perform our contract properly or comply with some of our legal obligations, we will implement fraud prevention and detection measures. Such measures will allow us to adequately perform our contract with you and/or protect our legitimate interests in defending ourselves against fraud. We may notably implement measures to ensure that you are complying with our terms and conditions for sales, available in this website, offers and programs, and to prevent and detect non-compliance or fraud by you. This may include reviewing and assessing your dealings with us, your eligibility to participate in certain sales, offers and programs, your compliance with the terms and conditions of such sales, offers and programs, and undertaking enforcement action and/or disciplinary action where such non-compliance or fraud is suspected or identified. 

{read more}

We may use administrative and technical measures to protect, our website, our systems, our networks, transactions occurring on our website or in our stores, and any other necessary means to protect the personal information we may access or store. For this purpose, we may also be required to verify your identity or to take note of any suspicious or actual non-compliance with our terms and conditions or fraud we incurred with respect to your dealings with us. Such measures may also be implemented for compliance purposes or to avoid sharing your personal information with any untrusted third parties. 

In addition, we may implement certain measures to protect and defend our rights and property, our employees and our business partners in compliance with applicable laws, regulations and international conventions. For example, we can monitor our inbound and outbound interaction with our customer service (including via voice or video recording, with prior notice to you); 

8. To assess and better understand our business. 

To manage our activities, perform our obligations under our contract with you and comply with our legal obligations, we may need to access and use some of your personal information for finance, management or legal purposes, or business-related analytics & market research activities. 

For example, this could occur when we use the invoices we have issued in relation to your purchases for compliance or accountability purposes, or when we analyze personal information to understand the characteristics of our customers (what is the gender proportion, the average age etc.). 

In certain limited circumstances, such activity may be based on our legitimate interest when related to business analytics & market research activities

Certain activities which are required when conducting a business may involve the use of your personal information. This could include internal processes (such as finance control, accounting, stock management, production management, internal or external audit), certain legal obligations (for example, record-keeping or tax declaration), or analyses conducted in case of a merger or acquisition. 

We may also conduct various business-related analytics & market research activities, which may require us to access or otherwise use some of your personal information, or to send you surveys or customer satisfaction questions in order to gather new or additional information. This notably enables us to analyze and learn how our customers use and interact with us in order to improve products, services and our business in general. It is also important for us to conduct operations that allow us to analyze and measure the performance of our marketing or communications campaigns. This may be the case, for example, when you click on one of our ads on our business partners website or when you make a purchase after viewing one of their ads. Please be aware that to do this, we may use cookies or other online advertising technologies.

1. To optimize and manage our website and other means of communication. 

We may take certain measures involving the use of your personal information to administer, optimize and improve our means of digital or physical communications such as our website,  or face-to-face interaction in our stores.

Of course, when we use cookies or other online advertising technologies requiring us to do so, we will always ensure that we have duly obtained your prior consent.

Note that the “Category” column listed below refers to the category of personal data as defined under California law and represents the categories of personal information that we have collected, and how it has been shared over the past 12 months.

The choice is yours.  You may elect not to send your personal data to them at any time.
