We have a legitimate interest in processing your personal information for promotional purposes (see above ‘How and why we use your personal information’). This means we do not usually need your consent to send you promotional communications. However, where consent is needed, we will ask for this consent separately and clearly.
We will always treat your personal information with the utmost respect and never sell it to other organisations outside the Cicli Pinarello group for marketing purposes.
We may share your personal information for marketing purposes with third parties but only where we have engaged such third parties to market on our behalf and only our products. They will only act upon our strict instructions and we will only allow them to handle your personal information if we are satisfied they take appropriate measures to protect your personal information.
You have the right to opt out of receiving promotional communications at any time by:
- contacting us at m.herety@pinarello.com

We routinely share personal information with:
- companies within the Pinarello group;
- third parties we use to help deliver our products, services, events or rides to you, for example, payment service providers, delivery companies, event or ride organisers/suppliers;
- providers of cycle to work scheme;
- other third parties we use to help us run our business, for example, marketing agencies, website hosts or administrative functions;

We may also need to share some personal information with other parties, such as potential buyers of some or all of our business or during a re-structuring. Usually, information will be anonymised but this may not always be possible. The recipient of the information will be bound by confidentiality obligations.
Where your personal information is held
Information may be held at our offices and stores and those of our group companies, third party agencies, service providers, representatives and agents as described above (see above: ‘Who we share your personal information with’).
Some of these third parties may be based outside the European Economic Area. For more information, including on how we safeguard your personal information when this occurs, see below: ‘Transferring your personal information out of the EEA’.
How long your personal information will be kept
We will keep your personal information while we are providing products and services to you. Thereafter, we will keep your personal information for as long as is necessary:
- to respond to any questions, complaints or claims made by you or on your behalf;
- to show that we treated you fairly;

Further details on this are available in our retention schedule which is available upon request by contacting us using our details below.
When it is no longer necessary to retain your personal information, we will delete or anonymise it.
Transferring your personal information out of the EEA
To deliver services to you, it is sometimes necessary for us to share your personal information outside the European Economic Area (EEA):
These transfers are subject to special rules under European and UK data protection law. We currently use a marketing platform based in the US, this may involve transfer of your email address to their servers based outside of the EEA. The US has different laws surrounding data protection than we do in this country, these laws may not offer the same level of protection as our laws. We therefore only use a marketing platform that has signed up to the Privacy Shield framework offering you the same level of protection as you can expect from us. Further details of this framework can be found at www.privacyshield.gov. If we use any provider who has not signed up to the Privacy Shield framework, we will ensure the transfer of any personal information complies with data protection law and all personal information will be secure. We will do this by using standard data protection contract clauses that have been approved by the European Commission. For further information on whether we have in place any of these clauses and to obtain a copy if we have please contact us using our contact details below.
