Privacy Policy | Mulberry

At Mulberry, we are committed to protecting your privacy and meeting the requirements of applicable data protection legislation. This privacy policy explains the following areas:

• personal data collected by Mulberry;
• reasons for collecting personal data;
• sharing of personal data;
• receiving contact from Mulberry and changing contact preferences;
• transfer of personal data outside of the United Kingdom ("UK") and the European Economic Area (“EEA”);
• security of personal data;
• personal data and your rights;
• retention of personal data;
• third party sites;
• cookies;
• children; and
• changes.

When we talk about "personal data" in this policy, we mean any information which could be used to identify you, either directly or indirectly, for example in combination with any other information we may hold about you.

This privacy policy covers our use of your personal data which we collect about you during any interaction you may have with us. It covers the collection of personal data in-store, via the Mulberry website (www.mulberry.com) (the "Website"), via the Mulberry mobile application (the "App"), via our customer feedback survey or market research, from competition entry and from our pages on third party social media channels such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, YouTube and so on. For further information on the personal data we collect about you, please see the "Personal Data collected by Mulberry" section below.

In this privacy policy, when we refer to "we", "us" or "our", we mean Mulberry Company (Sales) Limited of The Rookery, Chilcompton, Bath, Somerset, BA3 4EH, England. We are the data controller of the personal data that we collect from you.

In certain situations, another company within the Mulberry group of companies (“Mulberry Group”) may be the data controller, such as the Mulberry company in the territory in which you live, or a subsidiary or sister company which carries out a specific role for Mulberry. The same policy shall apply to any other company within the Mulberry Group which may collect, control or process your data.

We take security of your personal data seriously and the General Data Protection Regulations (“GDPR”) and comply with both UK GDPR and EU GDPR.

Please read this privacy policy carefully to understand our practices regarding your personal data. If you have any questions, comments, concerns or complaints about any aspect of this privacy policy, please contact our Customer Care team on enquiries@mulberry.com or call us on +44 (0) 1761 234 273.

We do have a data protection representative based in the EEA responsible for EU GDPR who can be contacted through EUdatarepresentative@mulberry.com. However, if you are located outside of the UK, we suggest that you still contact our Customer Care team as set out above in the first instance as they will be able to assist you.

If you remain unhappy with a response you receive from us you can also refer to your data protection regulator – in the UK it is the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) (www.ico.org.uk/concerns). For other EEA countries see https://edps.europa.eu.
