More about Account Linking

 

We partner with select brands to bring new promotions and loyalty programmes to you. These programmes are designed to bring you new products, offers and experiences and allow us and our brand partners to improve our relationship and the experiences we have with you. To do this:

 

  • we invite you to sign up to hear more about and become eligible for exclusive products, experiences and offers
  • we and our brand partners exchange information about you to identify your accounts and send you marketing messages (depending on your marketing choices)
  • we share order information with the brand partners so that we can both better understand which products are of interest to you. This includes where you have purchased the brand partner’s products instore in conjunction with a JD Status account
  • we provide you with more information about these programmes and how we and our brand partners use your information at the time you sign up to link your accounts

 

What automated decisions do we make about you?

 

We use some of the information about you to build a picture of you (‘profiling’). This is for the purposes of improving and developing our products and services and to help us to tailor our marketing to you. We use information that we learn about you such as your gender, preferences, hobbies, interests, purchase history and how you react to the marketing we send you to make sure the marketing you receive from us, and the way our websites and mobile apps are displayed to you, are appropriate and tailored to you.

 

What’s our legal basis?

 

Compliance with legal obligations

 

We must comply with the law. This requires us to use your data to verify your identity and to prevent fraud and other types of crime. If you choose not to give us certain information when signing up for an account and when using our websites and mobile apps, we may not be able to sell you our products or provide our other services

Necessary for the entry into or performance of a contract with you

 

When you buy our products, you enter a contract with us.  To fulfil our obligations under the contract (e.g. to allow you to place an order and receive products from us), we will process your personal information. If you do not provide the information we need or if you ask us to delete this information, it may mean we cannot sell you our products

Legitimate business interests

 

 

We use your personal data for the following, which we do because they are in the legitimate interests of our business:

  • Providing you with products you want and developing and improving our products
  • Researching and understanding our customers and how they buy and use our products
  • Offering promotions and loyalty programmes, including jointly with select brand partners
  • Passing your data to other companies within the JD Group and to selected third parties including brand partners 
  • Managing your account and running our websites and apps 
  • Linking the account you have with us to the accounts you have with brand partners. This may include offerings which are made available in collaboration with the brand partner
  • updating our websites and mobile apps
  • enforcing or applying rights under any contract between us
  • ensuring the health and safety of our customers and the security of our data and property 
  • Preventing and detecting fraud and other crimes
  • Where necessary when merging with or acquiring another business or re-organising our business, in which case some of your information may be shared with a prospective buyer or otherwise but only so far as is strictly necessary for the purposes of such sale or administration
  • sending you marketing communications where you have not told us that you wish to unsubscribe from marketing and where you have purchased similar products and/or services or where you signed up to receive such updates (including third party updates) for example in connection with our account linking and brand partner loyalty programmes. We rely on our legitimate interests for these activities, and you have the right to object to processing of this nature at any time by contacting our data protection team using the details at the end of this privacy notice

 

Although you also benefit from many of the above activities, we are required to carry out a balancing test of our legitimate business interests to ensure that the way we use your data for these purposes does not unreasonably intrude on your rights under data protection law. We are satisfied that processing of your data for these purposes does not unreasonably intrude upon your privacy and that we can therefore reasonably rely on legitimate interests as our basis for the above-mentioned processing activities     

 

Consent 

 

You will also receive marketing communications where you have consented to them.  If you’re an app user, and if you consent to it, we will use your location data to send push notifications when you are near one of our stores. These notifications may include offers and promotions relevant to you which are taking place at a nearby store or to let you know that an item in your wish list is available at a nearby store

You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by updating your marketing preferences in your account, turning off push notifications/location data using the settings in your mobile device and/or contacting our data protection team using the details below

Marketing

We always give you the choice of whether or not you wish to receive marketing communications from us (for example by providing opportunities to opt-out of receiving marketing from us). We may rely on your consent or our legitimate interests to process your data for marketing purposes, as explained above.

By contacting us  Privacy.Support@jdplc.com you can tell us that you do not wish to receive marketing communications from us and we will update your records. You can also click on the unsubscribe link in any promotional emails

Where do we store it and how long for?

Sometimes, the information we collect about you will be transferred outside the UK and the European Economic Area but only where we have taken steps to give it extra protections that are required by the law.  Depending on where we are sending your information, this may include using some extra protections called Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK Addendum or UK International Data Transfer Agreement.  These are additional safeguards that we put into our agreements with the companies that we give your data to.  We can give you more information about these added protections if you want it.  Just ask us using the contact info below.

We will only keep your information for as long as is necessary to do the things that we collected it for (the things we’ve set out in this privacy notice) unless the law requires us to keep it longer.  We typically keep your personal data for 6 years from the date we collect it.  This usually allows us to deal with any issues or concerns you may have about the products or services you have received, and for other legal reasons such as if we need to keep your information to bring or defend legal proceedings etc. In some circumstances, some of your data will be deleted in much shorter timescales, for example:
