Our primary goals in processing personal data are to provide you and administer your use of the App and its Services, to enable you to enjoy and easily navigate our App.
When you create an account, we process information that you provide to us, as applicable to the Services, and which can be used to identify you, such as your username, telephone, email address and name.
When using the App, it's features and services we will process personal data generated by you, such as photos and videos you upload and share or comments you decide to publish in collaborative spaces.
To make the App even more relevant to you we may personalise the content we display to you based on what we know (or perceive we know) about your interests and preferences. Personalisation comes through analysing and predicting aspects concerning your interests, preferences, behaviour etc., by making use of a combination of data derived from previous use of the App and tracking technologies.
We only process your personal data to the extent necessary to perform and deliver the services and benefits that come with the App. Such processing is limited to what is necessary to fulfil the Stylemine App Terms & Conditions.
Apart from the parties indicated in the general part of this Privacy Notice, such personal data as your username, published photos and videos will be visible to other users of the App.
It is possible to share user generated content outside the App for anyone who uses the App. Before sharing such data to other platforms and apps, please consider the privacy policy of the named platform provider, as we are not in control of how the information provided to the platform is being processed.
We keep and continue to process your personal data for as long as necessary to provide you with the service, at the latest until the Stylemine App Account is terminated. This is also the case for anyone that we share your information with and who carries out services on our behalf.
Account will be active until it's terminated by either you or Stylemine. You may terminate your Account at any time, and for any reason, by deleting the Stylemine App Account in Account settings.
When we no longer need to use your information and there is no need for us to keep it to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, we'll either remove it from our systems or depersonalize it so that we can't identify you.
We will keep your personal data for a longer period of time if there are any legal requirements or if there is an ongoing dispute.
We will use your personal data to send you newsletters through e-mails about Stylemine.
When you submit your e-mail address at the sign-up process we will process it in order to send you newsletters.
Data you submit is forwarded to media agencies and technical suppliers for distribution of digital newsletters.
The processing of your personal data is based on your consent when you sign up for newsletter by providing your email.
We will keep your data until you withdraw your consent or terminate your Stylemine App account.
You have the right to withdraw your consent for the processing of your personal data at any time by following the unsubscribing instructions in the e-mail newsletter you receive.
When you do so Stylemine won't be able to send you any further information based on your consent.
We always want to exceed the expectations of our users. Only by providing the best user experience, we can stay relevant. For this reason, we may use your personal data to evaluate, develop and improve our products, services and systems.
This includes analysis to make our services more user-friendly, such as modifying the user interface to simplify the flow of information, to highlight features that are commonly used by you and to improve IT systems in order to increase the security for the users and in general.
Data used for the purpose of development and improvement of products, services and systems is used to develop new features, functionality, improve performance and security, and hence improving the overall users' experience.
We will only use personal data for a development and improvement purpose if it is strictly necessary and cannot be achieved with less invasive means. This means that we will protect and secure your data to the extent reasonably possible, for example by appropriate pseudonymisation and encryption techniques or by data anonymization.
In no event we analyse data for the development and improvement purposes on a level where your identity is traceable.
Only pseudonymised personal data may be shared within H&M Group whenever sharing is necessary to fulfil the intended processing objectives. For the same reason, personal data may be shared also with suppliers carrying out certain tasks on our behalf, such as external web-analytics companies to analyse online behaviour, software development or externally hosted development tools. The Stylemine team is always fully responsible for its suppliers.
We will never use personal data to identify individuals. All analysis is carried out on an aggregated data level.
Except as explicitly stated herein, we never pass on, sell or swap your data to any third parties.
The processing of your personal data for the purpose to develop and improve our services and products is limited to what is necessary to fulfil the Stylemine App Terms & Conditions.
We will process your personal data no more than necessary for us to fulfil the purpose. Thereafter the data will be immediately erased for this type of use.

We take the privacy of your personal information seriously and want to ensure that we provide only you or your authorized agent with your personal information. Applicable law also requires that we verify the identity of each person who makes a request to know what personal information we have about you or to delete the personal information we have about you. To verify your identity, we ask you to provide your:
We may verify your identity in a few different ways in order to balance the requirements of state law and our obligation to keep your information private. When you make your request, you will be asked to answer a few questions about yourself to help us validate your identity. This is a two step process using information unique to you, such as an order number, a product in an order, an address or email address, etc. Depending on your cache settings, device and operating system, you may have to enter your password a second time.
In some instances, we may ask you to provide other documentation to verify your identity. If this happens, we will reach out to you directly with this request.
If we can't verify your identity, we will not be able to process your request to know what personal information we have about you or to delete the personal information we have about you. If we are unable to verify your identity with a high degree of certainty, we will only be able to provide a report with category-level information and we may not be able to delete some of your information.
An authorized agent is a person or business who has authorization to request to know what personal information we have about you, to delete the personal information we have about you, or to opt out of the sale of personal information on behalf of a California, Virginia, or Colorado resident. Authorized agents use the same links described above to submit requests.
If you are submitting a request on behalf of another person, we require a valid power of attorney or other documentation demonstrating your authority to submit this request. This can be a letter or other documentation signed by the California, Virginia, or Colorado resident authorizing you to submit this request. You can download a sample letter from the request form.
If you submit a request via email at info@stylemine.com, you must include the appropriate above listed documentation in order for us to act on your request.

If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. Any disclosure we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request's receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
