When you use the website for information purposes only (i.e., when you do not send us information in any other way), we generally only collect the personal data that your browser sends to our server. We collect the following data that are technically necessary in order to display our website in the version and language that are appropriate for you, to ensure stability and security, and to create general reports about the use of our website (the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. f of the GDPR):

When you use our digital tools such as our Foundation Shade Finder or SkinCam, we may collect information such as your skin tone and contact information. The legal basis for this is your consent, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f of the GDPR, or Contract Fulfilment, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b of the GDPR.
If you use our digital testers, we determine your approximate location (to an accuracy of approx. 50km) by means of an IP address that has been anonymised by shortening it and if you scan the QR code, we determine which version of our point of sale you are facing. This data is used exclusively for statistical purposes and is not combined with other data.
In order to show you the local version of the website or the version in your preferred language setting, we will use the location feature of your device to determine where you are, provided that you give your consent for this in the corresponding pop-up.

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected, which is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation ends when it is clear from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.
3. Cookies and Similar Technologies
In addition to the data mentioned above, cookies are stored on your computer and comparable technologies are implemented when you use our website. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your hard drive via the browser you are using and provide the entity that sets the cookie (in this case, us) with certain information. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or transmit viruses to your computer. They serve the purpose of making the Internet offer more user-friendly and effective as a whole.
The vast majority of cookies are only set with your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 S 1 lit. a of the GDPR). For other cookies, the legal basis is our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 S 1 lit. f of the GDPR). Our cookie banner informs you which cookies fall into which category.
(a) General
This website uses the following types of cookies and their scope and function are explained below:
Transient cookies: Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. In particular, these include session cookies. They store what is known as a session ID, which allows various requests from your browser to be allocated to the respective session. This way, your computer will automatically be recognised the next time you visit our website. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or close your browser. This type of cookie can be used, for example, to store the contents of your shopping cart in an online shop or your log-in status.
Persistent cookies: Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period of time, which may vary depending on the cookie. You can delete the cookies via the security settings of your browser at any time.
(b) Browser settings

4. Sharing personal data in general
(a) Sharing with service providers
For certain data processing activities, we sometimes employ service providers who are bound by our instructions and who, without exception, process the data on our behalf and as instructed by us (processing by contract).
(b) Disclosure to public authorities, injured parties and for legal prosecution
If it is required for the clarification of an illegal or fraudulent use of our website or for legal prosecution, personal data will be forwarded to the prosecution authorities and, where applicable, to injured third parties. However, this only occurs if there are indications of illegal or fraudulent behaviour.
Disclosure may also take place if this serves to enforce the terms of use or other agreements. We are also legally obliged to provide information to certain public authorities upon request. These are criminal prosecution authorities, authorities that pursue administrative offences that are subject to fines as well as the tax authorities.
The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. b, Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. c, Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. d and Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. d and Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. f of the GDPR.
(c) Disclosure in the context of company transactions
In the course of the further development of our business, the structure of our company may change due to changes in the legal form, or due to the establishment, purchase or sale of subsidiaries, parts of the company or components. In case of such transactions, the customer information may be shared with the acquirer or legal successor, together with the part of the business that is to be transferred.
Whenever personal data is disclosed to the extent described above, we ensure that this is done in accordance with this Privacy Policy and the applicable data protection laws.
(d) Disclosure to recipients outside the EU
It is possible that we might disclose personal data to countries outside the EU (“third countries”). Any disclosure of data to a recipient in a third country only takes place in accordance with the applicable data protection laws. Insofar as the European Commission has not determined that an adequate level of protection exists in a third country, we will provide the appropriate safeguards to ensure that your data is adequately protected. This can be done in particular by entering into data processing agreements that contain standard EU data protection clauses and provide appropriate safeguards in accordance with the decision of the European Commission (available at Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) (europa.eu)). Please contact us for further details, such as the text of the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
(e) Consentmanager
We have integrated the consent management tool “consentmanager” (www.consentmanager.net) by Jaohawi AB, Håltgelvågen 1b, 72348 Västerås, Sweden, info@consentmanager.net, on our website in order to request consent for data processing, the use of cookies or comparable functions. With the help of the “consentmanager”, you have the option of providing or refusing your consent to certain functionalities on our website, e.g. for the purpose of integrating external elements, statistical analysis, range measurement and personalised advertising. With the help of the “consentmanager”, you can provide or refuse your consent to all functions, or provide your consent for individual purposes or individual functions. You can also change the settings you have made retrospectively. The purpose of the integration of a “consentmanager” is to allow the users of our website to decide on the things referred to above and, in the context of the further use of our website, to offer the possibility of changing settings that have already been made. In the course of the use of the “consentmanager”, personal data is processed as well as information about the devices used, such as the IP address.
The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. c in conjunction with Art. 6 para. 3 S. 1 lit. a in conjunction with Art. 7 para. 1 of the GDPR.
5. Social plug-ins, integration of third-party content
(a) General
Our website may also contain offers from third parties. If you click on such an offer, we will transfer data to the respective provider to the extent required (e.g., the information that you found this offer on our site and, if applicable, additional information that you have already provided for this purpose on our website).
(b) Social Plug-Ins
When we use so-called “social plug-ins” from social networks like Meta Platforms Ireland Limited or Twitter on our website, we integrate them as follows:
When you visit our website, the social plug-ins are disabled, meaning there is no transmission of any data to the operators of these networks. If you wish to use one of the networks, click on the respective social plug-in in order to establish a direct connection with the server of the respective network.
If you have a user account with the network and are logged in when you enable the social plug-in, the network can correlate your visit to our website with your user account. If you want to prevent this, please log out of the network before enabling the social plug-in.
When you enable a social plug-in, the network transfers the content that becomes available as a result directly to your browser, which incorporates it into our website. In this situation, data transfers that are initiated and controlled by the respective social network can also take place. Your connection to a social network, the transmission of data between the network and your system and your interactions on this platform are governed solely by the privacy policy of the network in question.
When you click on the link to an offer or enable a social plug-in, personal data may be transferred to providers in countries that are not part of the European Economic Area and that, in the view of the European Union (“EU”), do not guarantee an “adequate level of protection” that meets the EU standards for the processing of personal data. Please bear this in mind before clicking on a link or enabling a social plug-in and thereby initiating a transfer of your data.
The social plug-in remains enabled until you disable it or delete your cookies.
(c) YouTube Videos
We have integrated YouTube videos into our online offer on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in optimising our online offer within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 S. lit. f of the GDPR), which are stored on http://www.youtube.com and can be played directly from our website. These are all included in the “extended data protection mode”, which means that no data about you as a user are transferred to YouTube unless you play the videos. The data specified in the following paragraph will only be transmitted when you play the videos. We have no influence on this data transfer.
When you visit the website, YouTube receives your IP address and the information that you have visited the relevant sub-page of our website. This occurs irrespective of whether you are logged in to a user account provided by YouTube or no such user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your personal data will be correlated directly with your account. If you do not wish a correlation to be established with your YouTube profile, you must log out before activating the button. YouTube stores your personal data as user profiles and uses it for the purpose of advertising, market research, and/or the demand-oriented design of its website. Such an analysis is performed, in particular (even for users who are not logged in), in order to provide demand-oriented advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles and must contact YouTube in order to exercise this right.
Further information about the purpose and scope of the collection of data and their processing by YouTube can be found in the privacy policy. Here, you can also find further information about your rights and settings options to protect your privacy: https://www.google.de/intl/en/policies/privacy.
(d) Google Maps
On our websites, we use the offer of Google Maps on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the optimisation of our online offer as defined in Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. f of the GDPR). This allows us to display interactive maps directly on the website and enables you to use the map function conveniently, e.g. when using our storefinder.
When you visit the website, Google receives your IP address and the information that you have visited the relevant sub-page of our website. This occurs irrespective of whether you are logged in to a user account provided by Google or whether no such user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your personal data will be correlated directly with your account. If you do not wish a correlation to be established with your Google profile, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data as user profiles and uses it for the purpose of advertising, market research, and/or the demand-oriented design of its website. Such an analysis is performed, in particular (even for users who are not logged in), in order to provide demand-oriented advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles and must contact Google in order to exercise this right.
Further information about the purpose and scope of data collection and its processing by the plug-in provider can be found in the privacy policy of the provider. Here, you can also find further information about your rights and settings options to protect your privacy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
(e) Use of Google reCAPTCHA
On this website, we also use the reCAPTCHA function by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”). This feature is designed to protect our website against attacks based on state-of-the-art technology, in particular to distinguish whether an entry is made by a natural person or is carried out fraudulently by means of machine and automated processing. The service includes processing the web request, IP address, browser type, browser language, date and time of your request, and one or several cookies that may identify your browser. The processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in determining individual responsibility on the Internet, avoiding abuse and spam and protecting our website against attacks. As part of the use of Google reCAPTCHA, personal data may also be transferred to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA and the other companies of the Google Group worldwide.
Further information on Google reCAPTCHA and Google’s privacy policy can be found at: https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/. You can contact Google’s Data Protection Officer at: data-access-requests@google.com.
(f) Social plug-ins from Meta Platforms Ireland Limited and Google Ireland Limited
Our websites may use social plug-ins from Meta Platforms Ireland Limited (Ireland).
When you visit a page that contains such a plug-in and it is activated, your browser connects to the provider of the plug-in and the content is loaded from these pages. Your visit to this website may therefore be tracked by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited and Google Ireland Limited, even if you do not actively use the social plug-in feature. If you have a Facebook or Google account, you can use such a social plug-in to share information with your friends. We have no influence on the content of the plug-ins and the transmission of information.
Meta Platforms Ireland Limited provides detailed information on the scope, nature, purpose, and further processing of your data at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy. Here, you can also find further information about your rights and setting options for protecting your privacy.
(g) Instagram
This website also integrates plug-ins from the social network Instagram (“Instagram”). Instagram is a service offered by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited (Ireland). You can recognise the Instagram plug-in by the “Instagram button” on our page. If you click on the “Instagram button” while you are logged in to your Instagram account, you can link the content on our pages to your Instagram profile. This allows Instagram to correlate your visit to our pages with your account. Please note that we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or their use by Instagram. For more information, please refer to the Privacy Policy of Instagram: https://instagram.com/about/legal/privacy.
(h) Commerce Connector
Content from Commerce Connector may be integrated into our online offer. We do so on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. f of the GDPR, namely on the basis of our interest in making our site attractive by integrating third-party content. For more information, please refer to the Commerce Connector Privacy Policy: https://www.commerce-connector.com/web/policy-cco/
6. Evaluation of usage data (“tracking”) and usage-related information (“(re)targeting“)
(a) General
We wish to tailor the content of our website as closely as possible to your interests and thus improve our service for you. We use so-called tracking technologies to identify usage preferences and particularly popular areas of the website.
We use so-called (re)targeting technologies so that we can tailor our online marketing (e.g., banner advertising) more specifically to your usage-based interests. When you visit other websites that collaborate with the providers of these (re)targeting technologies, these are read and used in order to provide you with information that is as interest-related as possible.
When the above technologies are used, cookies on our website and (in the case of retargeting) on third-party websites record your interest in our products and services. This involves the use of random identifiers (so-called cookie IDs) and similar technologies, which we do not connect with your name, address, or similar information even when this information is known to us (e.g., from an existing contractual relationship), unless you have consented to this.
(b) Google Analytics (basic version)
For the purpose of designing the website in line with requirements and continuously optimising it on the basis of Art. 6, para. 1, S. 1 lit. f of the GDPR, we use the basic version of Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Ireland Limited. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses cookies (text files) which are stored on your computer and allow us to analyse your use of the website. Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website and to compile reports about website activity. Google processes the data collected through the use of the “basic version” of Google Analytics exclusively on our instructions and for our purposes. Insofar as data collected via Google Analytics is used for Google’s advertising technologies (e.g. Google Remarketing) and in this case is also processed by Google for its own purposes and/or the purposes of third parties, such processing will only take place if you have given your consent to the use of such advertising technology on the website.
This website uses Google Analytics with the extension “_anonymizeIp()”. This enables IP addresses to be further processed in a shortened form, thus excluding the possibility of the shortened addresses being personally identifiable. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However, please note that if you do so, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent the collection by Google of data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address), and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the USA, Google Ireland Limited has agreed the so-called standard data protection clauses with Google. The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 para. 1 S.1 lit. f of the GDPR.
(c) Google Marketing
We only use Google Marketing products (e.g., Search Ad and Display & Video 360) with your express consent, which you can declare by clicking on the “Agree” button in the website’s cookie banner. We store your consent in a cookie on your device so that you are not asked for your consent every time you visit our website, and we also store it on our servers, together with the IP address and time, for legal reasons; we will erase this information or restrict its processing if you withdraw your consent. Google uses personal data to personalise advertisements, and cookies can be used for both personalised and non-personalised advertising. Further information is available at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
(d) Content Square
This website uses ContentSquare S.A.S. technologies to collect interaction data of the website visitor in pseudonymised form for marketing purposes and to optimise the user-friendliness of the website by using cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is usually transferred to a ContentSquare server and stored there. The IP address transmitted by your browser is not merged with other data of ContentSquare. ContentSquare guarantees the shortening of your IP address.
You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that in this case, you may not be able to use all functions of our services to their full extent.
(e) Tealium
Tealium Audience Stream. Within our website, we use “Tealium Audience Stream”, a service provided by Tealium Inc., which has a registered office at Sovereign House, Second Floor, Vastern Road, Reading, RG1 8BT, United Kingdom (Tealium); this service processes data from which user profiles are created using pseudonyms which can follow a person across different devices. For example, the following information is collected: ads viewed and clicked, articles, advertising, number of visitors, subject of the page, etc.
The legal basis is your consent, Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. a of the GDPR. You can also object to data collection and storage for the purpose of web analysis and advertising at any time via http://tealium.com/privacy/.
Tealium iQ (Tag Management System). This website uses a Tag Management System (TMS), a service provided by Tealium Inc., which has a registered office at Sovereign House, Second Floor, Vastern Road, Reading, RG1 8BT, United Kingdom (Tealium), in order to dynamically adjust parts of the website. The TMS is necessary for the provision of our services and therefore cannot be disabled. The cookie has a duration of 12 months. The legal basis is a legitimate interest under Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. f of the GDPR, namely the pursuit of our business purposes.
(f) Pinterest
Within our online offer, the so-called "Pinterest Tag" (individual code snippet) of Pinterest Inc., 635 High Street, Palo Alto, CA, USA, ("Pinterest") is integrated into our website on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. f of the GDPR, due to our legitimate interest in the analysis and optimisation of our online offer as well as the demand-oriented use of our Pinterest campaigns. If a Pinterest user sees or clicks on the advertisement, further actions and target groups that have shown interest are tracked. By using this information, we can ensure that Pinterest advertisements are only displayed to Pinterest users who have already shown an interest in our services, and that they match the user's potential interest. This data helps us to measure the conversion of each campaign. This data is used for statistical purposes and helps us to optimise the campaigns.
The data collected does not allow any conclusions about the identity of the respective user. Data is collected on the device information, the operating system used, the IP address of the device used, the time of the call, the type and content of the campaign, the reaction to the respective campaign as well as device IDs consisting of individual features of the device. This enables us to recognise your device on our website.
The data is stored in accordance with the legal retention periods and then automatically deleted. If you log into your Pinterest account after visiting our website or visit our website while logged in, it is possible that this data will be stored and processed by Pinterest. Pinterest may link this data to your Pinterest account and may also use it for its own advertising purposes. For more information, see Pinterest’s Privacy Policy: https://policy.pinterest.com/en/privacy-policy. You can object to this specific data processing at any time by either deactivating https://help.pinterest.com/en/article/personalization-and-data the relevant settings under "Customisation" in your Pinterest account or by clicking on Opt-Out.
(g) The Trade Desk
We use the retargeting technology of The UK Trade Desk Ltd. 10th Floor, 1 Bartholomew Close London EC1A 7BL United Kingdom (“The Trade Desk”). This feature serves to present interest-based ads to visitors to the website as part of The Trade Desk’s advertising network. If consent has been given through the cookie banner, when you visit our website, your browser will store cookies and similar technologies that allow you to be recognised when you visit websites that are part of The Trade Desk’s advertising network. These pages may then show you ads related to content you have previously viewed on websites using The Trade Desk’s retargeting technology. According to its own information, The Trade Desk collects pseudonymized data in this process.
If you still do not want to use this retargeting feature, you can disable it.

A Meta Platforms Ireland Limited pixel is integrated into this website (website custom audience pixel). If you have provided your consent, this pixel collects information about the use of this website (e.g., information about items viewed) by us and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited in joint responsibility and transmits it to Meta Platforms Ireland Limited.

In this way, Meta Platforms Ireland Limited can determine certain interests from your browsing behaviour on this website, for example, and may also use this information to promote third-party offers. Meta Platforms Ireland Limited may also combine the information collected via the pixel with other information that Meta Platforms Ireland Limited has collected about you through other websites and/or in connection with your use of the social network “Facebook” so that a profile about you can be stored at Meta Platforms Ireland Limited. This profile may be used for advertising purposes. Meta Platforms Ireland Limited is solely responsible for the permanent storage and the displayed further processing of tracking data collected via the website custom audience pixel used on this website. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. a of the GDPR.
