We do this by way of various ad exchanges and digital marketing networks. We and our advertising partners use various advertising technologies, for instance, ad tag, cookies, pixels, identifiers and web beacons.

MARKETING SERVICE PROVIDERS
Your personal data, which includes but is not limited to demographic information, transaction history, and online behaviour, may be shared with selected marketing service providers for the purposes of the following and is typically known as data profiling:
• helping us better understand the likely characteristics of our customers;
• creating predictive models that can offer suggestions and recommendations to you and other users about products or services that may interest you or them;
• improving the relevancy and appropriateness of our marketing to customers (e.g. offers, its products and services); and
• helping us to communicate with our customers more effectively offline and online. This may mean that you receive tailored advertising via direct mail or when you visit a website.
To ensure the security and protection of your data, all information shared with any marketing service providers will be transformed into a non-readable format. This means that your identifiable information will be removed and replaced with pseudonymous identifiers or encrypted tokens. The marketing service providers may have the capability to match the data we share with them with data from their or other third party sources. For example, combining the non-readable data received from us with data collected from various reputable sources to gain more comprehensive insights into consumer behaviour and preferences.
International transfer of your personal data
We are a global business and some of our group companies and service providers are located in countries outside of the UK or the EU.
As a result, it may be necessary for the personal data that we collect from you to be transferred to or accessed from outside the UK or the EU in order for us to provide our services.
If we do this, we have procedures in place to ensure your data receives the necessary protections. Where we transfer your personal information to countries deemed to provide an adequate level to data protection by the European Commission or the UK Government as applicable, we rely on that decision to transfer your personal information. For transfers to group companies and service providers outside the UK or the EEA where no adequacy decision applies, we use standard contractual clauses or other transfer tools provided for in the applicable data protection legislation to protect your personal information. Any transfer of your personal data will follow applicable laws and we will treat the information according to the principles set out in this Privacy Policy.
If you would like further information or a copy of the standard contractual clauses we use, please get in touch with us using the contact details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
Non-UK customers
If you are based outside the UK and place an order on the Website, or engage with us via the Website on LiveChat or VideoChat, your personal data may be accessed in the UK and/or the EU by Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Limited and the third parties detailed above.
How long will we keep your personal data?
We will only keep your personal data for as long as we need to for the reason we collected it, as set out in this Privacy Policy. For example, for as long as needed to allow us to fulfil your order or to provide any customer services support you have requested, or for as long as you hold an account with us.
We may also keep hold of some of your personal data if we are required to do so for legal purposes, for example, to meet our legal or regulatory requirements or to prevent fraud and abuse. For example, we will keep your order data for five years after you place an order with us to allow us to comply with our legal obligations.
When we are no longer required to keep your personal data, your data will either be deleted or completely anonymised. For example, by aggregation with other data so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for business planning and analysis purposes.
Ensuring your personal data is up to date and correct
It is important that the personal data we hold about you is accurate and current. If you have an account with us, please keep your details up-to-date.
Security
We are committed to ensuring that your personal data is secure and we have put in place suitable physical, electronic, contractual and managerial procedures, including our Information Security Management System and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption, to protect your personal data. Our employees who have access to and process your personal data are obliged to respect the confidentiality and security of your personal data.
Third Party Links
Our Website may contain links to other websites of interest. However, we do not have any control over third party websites and they will be governed by their own privacy policies, not this Privacy Policy.

Your rights
You have the following rights in relation to the personal information we hold about you, to request:
- Access to the personal data we hold about you (commonly known as a "data subject access request") including a copy of it.
- The correction of the personal information that we hold about you if it is incomplete or inaccurate (although if you hold an account with us, you may be able to do this in certain cases yourself by visiting the Account Information page on the Charlotte Tilbury website);
- The deletion or removal of personal data we hold about you where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it or where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see below);
- For our processing of your personal information to be restricted in certain circumstances, for example if you want to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it; and
- To obtain a copy of the personal information you’ve provided us with and to reuse it elsewhere or to ask us to transfer it to a third party of your choice.

Right to Object
Where we are processing your personal data on the basis of our legitimate interests, you can ask us to stop processing it and we must do so unless we believe we have an overriding legitimate reason to continue processing your personal data.
If you are dissatisfied with how we have handled your personal data, you have the right to make a complaint to your data protection regulator. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). You can make a complaint to the ICO by calling their helpline on 0303 123 1113 or on their website at www.ico.org.uk/concerns.
We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO or, (if you’re based outside of the UK, your data protection regulator), so please do contact us in the first instance.
Lookalike Audiences
For advertising purposes, we occasionally use information about our customers to generate a "lookalike audience" or similar audience of prospective customers through the Facebook, Google, Snapchat, Pinterest or TikTok advertising platforms. This allows us to target advertisements on their networks to potential customers who appear to have shared interests or similar demographics to our existing customers, based on the platforms' own data. We typically do this by uploading a list of email addresses. These third parties’ policy is to irreversibly hash (encrypt) such lists prior to uploading, match the hashed data against their own customers, generate the lookalike audience, then delete the uploaded list and use it for no other purpose. We do not have access to the identity of anybody in the lookalike audience, unless they choose to click on the ads. Based on this, we believe that generating lookalike audiences poses little or no threat to the privacy of our customers. If you wish to opt out of "similar audiences" in Google, you can do so through your Ads Settings. Many of the companies that display interest-based advertising are members of the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI") and/or Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA"). To learn more about interest-based advertising and how you may be able to opt-out of interest-based advertising, tracking, and/or sharing of tracking data by their members, visit their online resources at www.networkadvertising.org/choices and www.aboutads.info/choices, respectively. Other resources (not affiliated with NAI or DAA) include http://preferences-mgr.truste.com/, or for EU residents, www.youronlinechoices.eu.
Children
Customers need to be over 18 to create an account with us or to sign up for our newsletter. or to contact us or to liaise with us via LiveChat or VideoChat. We will not knowingly collect data about under 18s and if you are under 18, please do not provide us with your personal information. We would ask parents to please ensure that their children that are under 18 do not provide us with any personal information without their permission. If you believe that a child who is under 18 has provided personal data to us, please contact us, using the details below and we will seek to delete that data from our systems.
