WHICH PERSONAL DATA DO WE USE?

  • IP addresses
  • Data gathered by cookies and the like. For example, on which products you clicked and your shopping history
  • Order number

We do this with the legal obligation of processing in a way that is necessary to cater to both our and your legitimate interests by marketing our products to you for up to one year after your latest activity on our site. To do this, we use various external advertising services and collaborative partners. You can read more about this gathering, sharing and use of data, as well as remove the information used in these channels by following the instructions provided in the links below:

Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy/partners

We do this through analysis on an aggregated level, i.e. that the analysis is general and not at an individual level. We save the data, as a basis for the plain text analysis, up to one year after your most recent activity. After which, we pseudonymize the information, meaning we depersonalize it so as to make the identification of the provider (you) anonymous. If, within two years of pseudonymization, you decide you want to undo the change, we can reconnect your information with your previous visits to our site and show that you are a returning customer so as to understand how returning customers generally interact with our site. If more than two years have passed since pseudonymization, we are unfortunately no longer able to revive your information and your history is cleared. Additionally, if you contact us and wish to utilize your right of termination, we will also no longer be able to recover your information.

The payment service provider is responsible for their own handling of your personal information and has separate conditions which apply for them. Information regarding their conditions and handling of your personal data can be found when you choose which payment method to use on the site.

  • Collaborative Partners

 

In order to enable our partners to usher traffic to us via their channels, we provide information such as order numbers and purchase prices. The information is only shared for this purpose and is not sold or forwarded.

  • Other Recipients

 

We can send your data to other recipients, for ex: government organizations, if required of us by law.

  • Transfers Outside the EU

 

Some services or payment services can take place outside the EU. We never transmit any data outside the EU without taking the appropriate security measures and acquiring legal support for the transfer. For example, through Privacy Shield or the Commission's standard contractual clauses.

 

 

 

 

YOUR RIGHTS

You have a right to know which of your personal data we use. This can be provided through a process known as a registry extract. If you have an account, you can log in to “My Account” on the top left on the website to see which data we have on you, for ex: contact information, your order history etc. If you have not registered as a member or wish to receive a complete registry extract, you can contact our customer service and we will be glad to help you!

Regarding instances involving the ways in which we process your personal data through the consent provided by you, you always have the right (at any time) to withdraw your consent regarding that processing. You are also entitled to oppose some processing, for example direct marketing purposes and newsletters. In some circumstances, you even have the right to have your personal information deleted or blocked. This does not apply if we are required by law, for example, to preserve or otherwise process the information or if the information is required to fulfil an agreement with you.

 

CONTACT

If you have any questions regarding how we process your personal data, you are always welcome to contact us at info@kastelshoes.com. If you are unsatisfied with the answers you receive from us or how we process your data, you are entitled to file a complaint with the corresponding supervising authority.

 

 

 

COOKIES

Cookies might mean yummy treats, but in this case, we are referring to small text files used by our site in order to provide users a more effective, customized experience on kastelshoes.com.

 

Obligatory cookies are required for the site to function properly. Without these cookies, base functions such as page navigation and the ability to log into your user account would not be possible. We even gather some information through cookies, for analytical purposes, in order to improve our site and provide us the information necessary to effectively advertise. In some cases, this cookie data is shared with our partners, for example in cases of collaborative-marketing in which we share a pseudonymized order number to connect sales and returns with traffic from these partners. In such cases, IP addresses are shared with these partners to prevent fraud, but they are not saved any longer than necessary. Processing of cookies in this category is based on our mutual interest to understand and improve the ways in which our site is used and to convert our partners into traffic on our site via their channels.

Settings enable the site to remember information which affects the way the site functions or looks. This can be, for example, which types of cookies you wish to use.

 

Personalization

We use information about how you use the site, your order history and other identifiers to offer you a better experience, customized to meet your preferences, on our site. This means you can be pointed in the direction of personal promotions and offers which focus on products you like. Note that we will never process sensitive data about you, such as your order history of intimate products and the like, in order to customize the site.

 

Marketing

We use cookies to show advertisements and offers we believe you will be interested in, which are customized based on your preferences. Note that you cannot choose to opt-out of our ability to show ads on external websites, but you do have the right to decide whether or not we use your user information to customize the content in the ads. That can be, for example, information about previous shoe purchases which may result in shoe advertisements, or that you shopped from our fall/winter collection, thus we assume you have an interest in special offers from our fall/winter assortment. These cookies are processed based on our mutual interest to provide you with the most relevant information possible, but you always have the right to deactivate them below and therefore end the processing of your user information for the purpose of serving custom ads. We forward certain aspects of this information to marketing and analytical companies with which we collaborate, giving them the ability to customize and improve their services. Note that we will never process sensitive data about you, such as your order history of intimate products and the like, in order to provide customized recommendations for such products.

 

Cookie Settings

Note that settings for cookies are attached solely to the web browser in which you specified the settings. Thus, you may need to update your preferences on multiple platforms, if you use a variety of web browsers.

If you are a member and approve our Membership Terms, Kastel Shoes will process your personal data (by gathering cookies, among other ways) as described in the membership terms and Privacy Policy.

You have the same right and possibility to deactivate cookies according to that which is described above.

 

How to Remove Cookies

TERMS

In order to get the full amount refunded on return / cancellation right, the item must be returned in the same condition as when you received it. That is, in unused condition and in original packaging without odours and marks.

If the original packaging is damaged, the item will be considered used. Therefore, please note that if you tape and destroy a shoebox in the return shipment, the item cannot be resold and will be defined as «used items». If the item is defined as used, we consider the value reduction of the item and repay the items used value. An item without original packaging, labels or with odour / marks will be considered used and the full amount will not be refundable.

  • Shipment delivery problem

If we, against presumption, should have sent you the wrong item, we ask that you please contact us so that we can arrange to send you the correct item as soon as possible. The misdirected item is easily sent in return by you, and you must mark the return with «Shipment error».

  • Complaints

If you have been so unlucky that something wrong has happened to the item you bought from us, please contact us by mail ( returns@kastelshoes.com ) with a supplementary error message about the case, preferably with pictures if it is natural. Sometimes we do not need the item in return, so it is best if you await the submission of the defective item until you are you are notified.

 

THE RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

If you wish to regret your purchase, you always have 14 calendar days from the last item of your order was received. It is the right or withdrawal, also referred to as the cancellation act, that regulates duties og rights between the consumer and enterprise.

See https://lovdata.no/dokument/NLE/lov/2014-06-20-27 for the cancellation act in full.

The right of withdrawal gives you as a private person the right, at no extra cost, to check the product before it is returned within the right of withdrawal. If the product is only tested or checked in the same way as you can in a general store, the customer must have the entire purchase price and shipping refunded. If the product is used (during the right of withdrawal) and this has led to a reduction in the value of the goods, the enterprise will make a deduction in the purchase price corresponding to the objectively reduced value, before the rest of the purchase price and shipping to the customer are repaid. Documentation of irresponsible and unnecessary examination of the product resulting in value reduction will be sent to the consumer by email.

You must not remove labels and the item must be returned in unused condition in original packaging with the return form. We will not cover return shipping on items that are returned in a different way.
