Privacy Policy

Thank you for visiting the Aviela website at www.aviela.co.uk(the website). This Privacy Policy demonstrates how Aviela Skincare Limited (“we”) handle(s) the personal information you provide to us and what we learn about you from your visit to our website.

 By using this Website and/or registering with us, you are agreeing to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you have any queries regarding this policy or complaints about our use of your information, please contact us at customercare@aviela.co.uk and we will do our best to deal with your complaint or query as soon as possible.

 

YOUR RIGHTS

You have certain rights in relation to your personal data.  Under certain circumstances, by law you have the right to:

  • Object to processing of your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or that of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
  • Request access to your personal information (commonly known as a "data subject access request"). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you and to check that we are processing it lawfully.
  • Request correction of the personal information that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected.
  • Request erasure of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal information where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal information where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see above).
  • Request the restriction of processing of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
  • Request the transfer of your personal information to another party in a machine-readable, commonly used in structured format.

If you want to exercise any of these rights, then please contact us at customercare@aviela.co.uk.  The various rights are not absolute and each is subject to certain exceptions or qualifications. For example, if you wish to withdraw your consent or object to processing, we may need to discuss with you whether our use of your data needs to continue for other lawful purposes, such as fulfilment of a legal or contractual requirement. 

We will respond to your request within one month of receipt of your request. In some cases, we may not be able to fulfil your request to exercise the right before this date and may need to request more time. Where we cannot provide a full response to you for any reason, we will let you know about this in our initial reply to your request.

 

YOUR DUTY TO INFORM US OF CHANGES

It is important that the personal information we hold about you is accurate and current. Please keep us informed if your personal information changes during your relationship with us.

 

FEES

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). In some cases, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request for access is clearly unfounded or excessive, or if you request multiple copies of the information. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with the request in such circumstances.

 

WHAT WE MAY NEED FROM YOU

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

 

RIGHT TO COMPLAIN

If you wish to request further information about any of the above rights, or if you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, please contact us at customercare@aviela.co.uk to discuss this.

If you live in the UK and you are not satisfied with our response to your complaint or believe our processing of your information does not comply with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you can make a complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office: https://ico.org.uk/global/contact-us/ or 0303 123 1113.

WILL YOU DISCLOSE ANY OF MY PERSONAL DATA TO THIRD PARTIES?

We will only disclose your personal data to third parties in the following circumstances:

Third party service providers: Under protection of confidentiality agreements, we use third parties to provide services and manage our websites and relationships with you. These may include website hosting and organisations that assist us in our direct marketing activities. Third-party processors and providers will be given access only to that information needed to perform their support functions and are prohibited from using it for other purposes.

Direct marketing: See below, under ‘Aviela Communications’ for further information.

Reorganisation: In the event that we or a part of our business undergo re-organisation, enters into a joint venture or are sold to or merged with a third party, you agree that any personal information we hold about you may be transferred to that re-organised entity or third party.

Legal issues: In some cases, we may be required to disclose your personal information to comply with legal requirements and requests from government agencies.

 

TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA OUTSIDE THE EEA

Information will be shared with a courier in the destination of delivery, and therefore we may transfer, use and/or store your personal information outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), depending on your shipping destination. The laws of some of these destination countries may not offer the same standard of protection for personal information as countries within the EEA. It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers (for example, those who supply support services to us).

Transfers to our third-party service providers are to enable them to use and store your personal information on our behalf. We will, however, put in place appropriate security procedures to protect your personal information. Where your information is transferred to any country outside the EEA, we ensure that this is done using specific legally approved safeguards.

Our website has appropriate technical and organisational security measures installed in place to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the personal information under our control.
