This Data Privacy Notice describes the collection and further processing of personal data by Madame Blue.

Failure to provide this information will lead to automatic rejection of the order.

Cookies
When consulting the Website, the information regarding browsing of the Website from the Customer’s device (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) may be stored in “cookies” or files installed on the Customer’s device, subject to the choices he has expressed regarding cookies. These choices notably result from the parameters of the Customer’s browsing software used during his visit to the Website, which he can amend at any time.

Google Analytics
Madame Blue may use Google Analytics or similar services on its website. These applications are third party services which allow Madame Blue to measure and analyze the use of its website. The provider of these services may be located in any country worldwide (in the case of Google Analytics which is operated by Google Inc. it is the U.S., www.google.com). The service provider uses permanent cookies for these applications. Madame Blue will not disclose any personal data to the service provider (who will also not save any IP addresses). The service provider may, however, monitor the use of the website by the user and combine this data with data from other websites monitored by the same service provider which the user has visited and the service provider may use these findings for its own benefits (e.g. control of advertisement). The service provider knows the identity of the user who has registered with the service provider. In this case the processing of personal data will be the service provider’s responsibility and data shall be processed pursuant to data protection and privacy laws and according to the data protection policies of the service provider (for Google see policies.google.com/privacy). The service provider will provide data on the use of the website to Madame Blue.
Plug-ins
In addition, Madame Blue may use plug-ins from social media networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Google+, Pinterest or Instagram on its website. In the default setting of the website plug-ins are deactivated; the user can thus choose when to activate them. Should the user do so, the social media providers are able to establish a direct connection to the user during his or her visit on the website, which allows the provider to be aware of the user’s visit and may analyze the respective information. The subsequent processing of the personal data will be conducted in the responsibility of the social media provider pursuant to data protection and privacy laws and according to its data protection policies published on its website (such as www.facebook.com/; www.twitter.com/; www.youtube.com/; www.google.com/; www.pinterest.com/; www.instagram.com/).
