2. How We Use Your Information

We use your personal information only when necessary to operate our store and provide our services.

We may use your information for the following purposes:

  • Processing, confirming and fulfilling your order

  • Complying with legal, tax and administrative obligations
  • Sending marketing emails, only when you have given permission

We only collect and use the information that is reasonably necessary to provide our services and operate our online store properly.


3. Legal Basis for Processing Your Data

We process your personal data based on one or more of the following legal grounds:

  • Performance of a contract: to process, ship and complete your order.
  • Legal obligation: to comply with tax, accounting and consumer protection rules.
  • Consent: for example, when you subscribe to marketing emails or accept certain cookies.
  • Legitimate interest: to improve our services, prevent fraud and operate our business safely.

Where we rely on your consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time.


4. Sharing Your Information with Third Parties

We only share your personal information with third parties when this is necessary to run our store, process your order, deliver your products or comply with legal obligations.

This may include:

  • Payment providers
  • E-commerce platform and website service providers
  • Shipping, delivery and fulfilment partners
  • Customer service and communication tools
  • Marketing and analytics providers, where applicable
  • Suppliers or fulfilment partners involved in processing and shipping your order

Some products sold by David & Emma may be shipped directly by our suppliers or fulfilment partners. This means that limited order information, such as your name, shipping address, email address and phone number, may be shared with these partners only when necessary to process and deliver your order.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Because some orders may be processed or shipped by international fulfilment partners outside the European Economic Area, including suppliers outside Europe, your personal data may be transferred internationally where necessary. When this happens, we take appropriate measures to protect your personal information in accordance with applicable privacy laws.

We do not keep your personal information longer than necessary.

We keep customer and order information for as long as needed to:

  • Process and complete your order
  • Provide customer support
  • Handle returns, refunds or disputes
  • Meet legal and tax obligations
  • Prevent fraud and misuse

Certain administrative records may need to be kept for up to 7 years where required by tax or accounting laws.

7. Security of Your Information

We take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure or alteration.

Our website uses secure technology, including SSL encryption, to help protect data during checkout and communication with our store.
