This information includes your name (first and last name), email address, country of residence, postal address (including city of residence and postcode), language preferences, gender and date of birth.

This link will only be created when the new member completes the registration process. Purpose of processing (how and why we use your personal data):
We process your personal data to administer your Fashion Club membership and to be able to provide you with access to the various benefits of the Fashion Club. These benefits include our newsletter, the ability to make savings at participating retailers’ stores by accruing credits on your purchases and access to special offers, promotions and discounts. We also process your personal data to ensure that the information we hold about you is kept up to date and accurate.
We rely on the use of personal data to build a clearer picture of our members both as a group and as individuals, including by analysing your shopping behavior (the date/time), the benefits of the Fashion Club which you choose to take up or participate in, and the different ways in which you choose to interact with us. This helps us to provide you with a seamless, relevant and consistent service and also to work out how we can improve the Fashion Club and the information technology systems (including security) that are used to operate it.

Legal basis for processing:

We process your personal data after obtaining your consent to do so for the purpose of sending you marketing communications, which may include invitations to take part in special events, surveys and/or focus groups, about the benefits of the Fashion Club.

3.B. Fashion Club: Marketing communications and automated decision-making (including profiling)

Accepted Answer

Types of personal data we collect:

As part of the Fashion Club, we also gather information about the purchases you make at the Centre, including the stores you shop in and transaction details. When you use our online platform, we also collect information on purchased items, frequency of purchasing and transaction details (including the date, time and value of the transaction). We gather this information when you scan or enter in your unique code membership email, Fashion Club membership card or Fashion Club app at a Centre store or online when making a purchase (we gather this information in order to offer you all the benefits of the Fashion Club). This helps us to build a profile of your preferred brands and products.

Purpose of processing (how and why we use your personal data):

By interacting with our services, we are able to use the data you have provided to find out what products, brands and styles you are interested in and profiling helps us to build a profile of your preferred brands and products. With this profile, we are able to send you offers that are tailored to your specific preferences, based on your previous transaction activity. It also means that we don’t send the same offers to all members of our Fashion Club, so you may not be made the same offers as another Fashion Club member.
We gather information about the purchases you make at the Centre and your use of our online services and your visits to the Centre (location data) so that we can give you all the benefits of the Fashion Club and to provide you with useful information that corresponds to your needs and interests. When we have information about your purchases, we can tailor our benefits to your preferences, based on your purchasing activities and learn more about your favourite stores so that we can make sure you are sent the kinds of offers that you will be most interested in. We may also use your personal data to analyse the effectiveness of our marketing communications so that we can improve the relevance of the marketing communications we provide to you and other members over time.
We send you such offers by automated means. This means processing using, for example, software code or an algorithm, which does not require human intervention. Legal basis for processing:
We only send you personalized offers with your consent.
If you want to withdraw your consent and opt out of receiving personalized offers based on profiling and automatic decision-making, you can unsubscribe via the link provided in each newsletter.
If you don’t agree with an automated decision that our technology has made in relation to you, you can contact us and we will look into it for you (see the section “How you can contact us”).
If you opt-out of receiving personalized offers, we will not target and/or profile your data, but we will still collect your information as part of your membership of the Fashion Club and in order to provide our services as mentioned in the section “Fashion Club: Registration” above. Please also see the section “Analytics, surveys and focus groups (market research) and Advertising” which sets out how we use your data for market research and analytic purposes.

Question 6

3.C. Fashion Club: Geo-fencing

Accepted Answer

Types of personal data we collect:

We process location data of Fashion Club members using a geo-fencing service. Geo-fencing is a location-based service which establishes a virtual fence around, or within, our shopping centres. If you are a Fashion Club member (or use the Fashion Club app) and you have consented to location tracking within the Fashion Club app on your mobile device, our geo-fencing service will detect and record when you enter and leave that geo-fenced location within our centres and how long you stay in a specific area of the centre.
Geo-fencing cannot pinpoint your exact location or entry into a particular store.
No personal data is shared with the retail outlets or brands you visit.

Purpose of processing (how and why we use your personal data):

The geo-location data is combined with data from your Fashion Club loyalty scheme card data if you use it in the Centre to collect rewards to determine the spend value and the brand/store. On the basis of this information, we determine which (future) rewards, discounts and/or vouchers to offer to you as a Fashion Club Member.
We can also determine when you visited the Centre without making any transaction or without using your loyalty scheme card in order to send you offers or information about the Centre and/or brands.
We may also use the geo-location data to send Fashion Club members who visited the Centre a survey after their visit.
We may send you the above through push notification during or after your visit to the Centre. For more information on our marketing communications, please read “Fashion Club: Marketing communications and automated decision-making (including profiling)” and “Push Notifications”.

Legal basis for processing:

Geo-location data via a Fashion Club member’s mobile device is automatically collected by the device when you have consented to location tracking services on your device. As such, you remain in full control of location data collection.
You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future by consulting the settings on your device. Data retention period:
As a Fashion Club member your data will be kept for as long as you are an Active Fashion Club Member.
If you are not registered as a Fashion Club member, we do not store any geo-location of you. All data is stored locally on your device and is not accessible by us. If you enter a geo-fenced area, your device may automatically send you a push notification or in-app message (for more information, please read the section “Push Notification”).

If you are not registered as a Fashion Club member but still use the Fashion Club App, you will only receive push notifications based on geo-fencing data, if you have consented to such location tracking, and analytical data about your use of the Fashion Club App (i.e. what you have clicked on).

Legal basis for processing:

You will only receive push notifications if you have given us your consent.
At any time, you can manage your push notification preferences or deactivate these notifications at any time by turning off the notification settings in the App or in the device settings of your mobile device.

Data retention period:

Question 15

3.L. Footfall counter tracking via CCTV

Accepted Answer

(L) Footfall counter tracking via CCTV

Types of personal data we collect and how we use your personal data:

▪ We use technology that tracks multiple features via our CCTVs placed at the entrance of our centre (including the car park) and in the centre and stores. This paragraph specifies what personal data about you are processed by us, for which purpose(s) and, where required by applicable law, on which legal grounds we rely for the collection and processing of your personal data.

Through the CCTVs we automatically analyse our guests in real time in order to get statistical insights into the reactions and behaviour of our shopping audience, by estimating the following features:

▪ age (estimation)

▪ gender

▪ dwell time

Based on the estimated features above, we capture aggregated, statistical information about:

▪ the number of visits (entry and exit counts)

▪ guest demographics (gender and age)

▪ guest pathing for different floors

▪ occupancy of guest in specified areas

▪ same-day unique/repeat guests

▪ average time spent in zone

▪ cross-conversion data.

All data collected is stored and used anonymously for statistical and analytical purposes. No images are recorded or stored for this purpose, therefore no uniquely identifiable data can be extracted. Images from the camera sensors undergo real-time conversion into statistical data within a short period of time. This also means that your image is translated into a hash value (a unique numerical value) when the video stream is processed, and only the hash value is stored for 24 hours for repeat visitor processing. This means that the system is able to recognize the guests through the centre for a day. This is necessary to create and obtain a realistic picture of the number of visits to and walking routes in the Centre.

For the first two weeks that the AI system is functional, the video feed will be stored to conduct quality assurance and enhance the accuracy of the system. This is a one-time only procedure. Though facial images will be stored for a period of 14 days, the data processing will only take place for quality assurance and not for the purpose to identify or target you in any way whatsoever.

The processing of your personal data for this short period of time is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us, namely to create anonymous statistical and analytical data, to get insight in our shopping audience and to improve the shopping experience of our guests and once for quality assurance. For example, when we get insight on how our guests move through the centre and the average time spent at a certain location, we may improve the brand mix, position stores and facilities a certain way and provide entertainment at a specific location within the centre. With the anonymous statistical and aggregated data we cannot identify you or recreate any images of you. In addition, the data are not used to target you or any of our guests in any way whatsoever. If you wish to receive more information on the balancing test we performed in this context, please contact us.

Do we share your personal data with third parties?

The technology described above is provided to us by Deep North. In addition, we use an external hosting provider for the storage and management of the data. The processing by these service providers is governed by a so-called data processing agreement in which we have ensured that that the service provider shall only process the personal data on our instructions.

Deep North’s employees and contractors located in a country outside of Switzerland or the European Economic Area (EEA), potentially in a country worldwide, may need to access raw video footage for quality assurance purposes, in this case mainly the United States and India. To comply with applicable data protection laws around international data transfer, we only allow service providers outside of Switzerland or the EEA to process your personal data in accordance with a contract entered into between Via Outlets and the service provider, incorporating the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted or recognized by the competent body or authority, which ensure that adequate data protection arrangements are in place. For more information on where and how the relevant document may be accessed or obtained, please contact us.

What are your rights?

In general, you have a number of rights under the applicable data protection legislation with regard to your personal data and the processing thereof. Since the data processed by us, is stored and used anonymously and no images are recorded or stored, we will not be able to identify you should you invoke your rights. Due to this fact, you do not have any (further) data subject rights.

How long do we retain your personal data?

We shall retain personally identifiable information only as long as reasonably necessary to translate them into the anonymous, aggregated, statistical and analytical data. As mentioned above, no images are recorded or stored for longer than that. Therefore, no uniquely identifiable data can be extracted afterwards. Images from the camera sensors undergo real-time conversion into statistical data within a short period of time. The video image is discarded within 10 minutes without any storage of your facial images and all hash values are deleted within 24 hours.

See this link for an overview of applicable adequacy decisions. For example, if your personal data is accessed or processed from a territory outside the EEA, Switzerland or the UK which is not white listed, the appropriate safeguards may be provided by standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission and recognized by the Swiss Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) (known as ‘model clauses’).
