Lawful bases
We will only use personal information when the law allows us to (i.e., where we have a ‘lawful basis’). Most commonly, we will use your personal information in the following circumstances:
- Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party such as a local distribution partner) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests. For example, we have a legitimate interest in providing our services and furthering the development of our business;
- Where it is necessary for the performance of a contract with you; or
- Where it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation on us (for example, reporting to regulatory agencies and authorities).
In some circumstances, we may ask for your consent to use your personal information for a specific purpose. In particular, we may obtain your consent before we send you any email marketing, including newsletters, personalised offers and advertisements which we think might interest you.
You may unsubscribe from our email communications by following the instructions in any email that we send you, or you can withdraw your consent and request us to remove your personal information at any time by emailing us at info.gl@joiebaby.com.
Your personal information is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purposes for which it was collected. The criteria we use to determine the retention period of personal information are: (i) the respective statutory retention period; (ii) our contractual and/or business relationships with you; (iii) (potential) disputes; and (iv) any guidelines issued by relevant regulators. For example, due to commercial and tax regulations, we are obliged to save your address, payment data as far as processed by us, and data related to your order for a certain period of time.
However, we may continue to store your data after the appropriate retention periods expire if necessary for the fulfilment of a contract, the initiation of a contract or to protect or defend our position or that of a third party.
We review our retention periods for personal information on a regular basis. If you have any questions about our retention periods, please contact us by emailing us at info.gl@joiebaby.com. You may request erasure of your personal information at any time by contacting us as indicated below in the Your Privacy Rights section below.
Based on the purposes detailed in the above section “Why We Collect Personal Information,” your information may be passed on to the following categories of recipients:
- Joie-affiliated companies and distribution partners, depending on your location;

- pursuant to a court order, or other legal process or as otherwise required or requested by law, regulation, or government authority programmes, or to protect our rights or the rights or safety of third parties;
- with your consent or as otherwise disclosed at the time of data collection or sharing.
We will not sell or rent your personal information to third parties.
