4. Competitions and events
Living Essentials regularly organizes interesting competitions and events for its customers. In order to participate in a competition or event, we sometimes need certain personal information from you, such as your name, address, e-mail address and telephone number.

Transfer to third parties
Occasionally we call on an external processor to help us with certain services. These services may include delivery services, processing credit/debit card payments, marketing activities and providing customer service. This means, among other things, that we temporarily pass on personal data to third parties for certain tasks or research because they need it to provide the service to Living Essentials and ultimately to you. We always record this contractually with these processors and limit the data we share with third parties to only the purposes for which the other party needs it. This processor will never be allowed to use your data on its own initiative and your data must be deleted as soon as the processor has completed the assignment. Third parties are strictly controlled by Living Essentials to ensure that your privacy remains protected.

We may also, in rare cases, pass on your data if we are obliged to do so by certain laws, regulations and/or case law. Living Essentials may have to disclose your personal data pursuant to a court order or to comply with other mandatory laws or regulations. In that case, we will make reasonable efforts to inform you in advance, unless this is subject to legal restrictions.

We may also pass on your data in the event that our organization or part of it is sold and the buyer needs your data to continue the service to you. In the event of a complete or partial reorganization or transfer of Living Essentials activities, whereby the business activities are reorganized, transferred or discontinued, or if Living Essentials goes bankrupt, this may mean that your data is transferred to new entities or third parties. We will make reasonable efforts to inform you in advance of the fact that Living Essentials will disclose your data to the said third party, but you also acknowledge that this is not technically or commercially feasible under all circumstances.
