We use and process your data to help you get the most out of your relationship with us – and always in compliance with the law.
SAFETY
We keep your data under lock and key – in secure and highly restricted environments.
OPENNESS
We aim to be 100% transparent with you about what data we collect and why we collect it.
CONTROL
You are in charge. You can ask to see the data we hold for you or ask for it to be deleted.
This policy tells you a little bit more about these principles and how we work hard every day to live by them and respect them.
We want to be open with you about:
What information we collect
How we use your information
Why we use your information in the way we do
We also want to tell you all about your rights and how we can help you stay in control.
3. WHY WE PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION
We will only ever process your information if we have a lawful basis to do so. The lawful bases we rely on are:
Contract
This is where we process your information to fulfil a contractual arrangement we have made with you.
Consent
This is where we have asked you to provide explicit permission to process your data for a particular purpose, and you have provided such consent.
Legitimate Interests
This is where we rely on our interests as a reason for processing your information, generally this is to provide you with the best products and service in the most secure and appropriate way.
Legal Obligation
This is where we have a statutory or other legal obligation to process the information, such as for the investigation of crime or to notify you of certain things.
We want our relationship with you to be open, strong and mutually beneficial. Throughout the different stages of our relationship, you may give us certain information. We use your information in a number of different ways, and what we do depends on the information.

5. sharing your information
We do not, and will not, sell any of your personal data to any third party for pure financial gain. We want to earn and maintain your trust, and we believe this is absolutely essential in order to do that.
However, we share your data with the following categories of companies as an essential part of being able to provide our services to you:
- Companies in the Superdry group, as sometimes different bits of our group are responsible for different activities.
- Companies that do things to get your purchases to you, such as, warehouses, order packers, and delivery companies.
- Professional service providers, such as marketing agencies, advertising partners and website hosts, who help us run our business or help us obtain feedback from you.
- Affiliates who help us reach out to potential new customers or promote our products on their websites.
- Credit reference agencies, law enforcement and fraud prevention agencies, so we can help tackle fraud.
If we do share your personal data with third parties, it will only be done in order to achieve a legitimate and lawful purpose or with your consent. We will always assess the relevant third party and their security measures to ensure that when a transfer such as this takes place, you can expect a similar degree of protection in respect of your personal information.
If you would like to know more about the third parties we may share personal data with, or how to find out more on how they will use your data, please contact us using the form here.

9. international transfers of data
Superdry is a global business with operations inside and outside of the United Kingdom and we use suppliers and fulfilment centres located across the world.
It is sometimes necessary to share your personal information outside of the UK and / or the European Economic Area (the EEA) or it will be collected outside of the UK and / or the EEA. This will typically occur when service providers to our business are located outside the EEA or if you are based outside the EEA. These transfers are subject to special rules under data protection laws.
The same applies to any transfer of personal information to another part of our group of companies based outside of the UK and / or the EEA. We also apply the same standards to any transfer of personal information between members of our group, regardless of where the group company is based.
If we transfer your personal information outside of the UK and / or the EEA, we will ensure that the transfer will be compliant with data protection laws and all personal information will be secure. Our standard practice is to assess the laws and practices of the destination country and relevant service provider and the security measures that are to be taken as regards the personal Information in the overseas location. This means that when a transfer such as this takes place, you can expect a similar degree of protection in respect of your personal information.
Our directors and other key staff working for us may in limited circumstances access personal information from outside of the UK and EEA if they are working abroad outside of the UK or EEA. If they do so they will be using our security measures and the same legal protections will apply that would apply to accessing personal information from our premises. In limited circumstances the people to whom we may disclose personal information may be located outside of the UK and EEA and we will not have an existing relationship with them, for example a foreign police force. In these cases we will impose any legally required protections to the personal information as required by law before it is disclosed.
Also if you are based outside of the UK and / or the EEA, then your personal data may be held and used outside of the UK and / or EEA anyway, but in most cases as described at the start the controller of your personal information will be Superdry in the UK. If you would like any more details about how we protect your personal information in relation to international transfers then please use the form here to contact our DPO.
