Privacy policy – Building up profiles

Each day we work to improve the daily lives of as many people as possible, not just through our products and collections, but also through our services. In some instances, this requires us to obtain information. We don’t gather information just for the sake of it. At the end of the day, this is about your privacy and in our opinion, it is something that we need to be absolutely clear about.

If you are a MATERIAL 360 Family member, or you have an online MATERIAL 360 profile, we will connect information we receive from you to your MATERIAL 360 Family account or online MATERIAL 360 profile. In this way we get to know you better and we can tailor our communication with you to your interests.

What exactly do we connect?

To make sure you get great offers that suit you, we link your search and browsing behavior on Material360.pk to your MATERIAL 360 Family account or online MATERIAL 360 profile.

To better serve you and to make you great offers, we link your purchase details to your MATERIAL 360 Family account or your online MATERIAL 360 profile.

If you participate in a MATERIAL 360 event or promotion, we will link the information you have to provide to the MATERIAL 360 Family account.

In addition, we receive non-identifiable demographic information from a third party that we use to supplement your MATERIAL 360 Family account. This allows us to gain more insight into your potential interest and tailor our communications to you accordingly.

We process your information either because we need it to enter into or perform the contract with you, or because we are legally obliged to do so, or with your consent, or because we (or a third party) have a legitimate interest in doing so. Our legitimate interests are described in this privacy statement. In individual cases, we may be required to process your data because it is necessary for your vital interest or that of another person (for example, if you or your child get hurt in the store and we have to pass on your data to the ambulance staff).

In a number of cases (where necessary) we provide your data to external parties. However, we will never sell your data to other parties. As mentioned above, in some cases we cooperate with external service providers. They may only use your data for the performance of the services in question. They may not use or pass on your data independently. Information collected via cookies may be shared with the parties who place those cookies. Read more about this in our cookie policy www.allaboutcookies.org. We may also be required by law to disclose your information by government agencies or other parties. We will then only share the data that is strictly necessary. The following categories of third parties will receive your data if necessary:
