IN PARTNERSHIP WITH PERENNIALS

Privacy Policy

Perennials and Sutherland, LLC (“Perennials & Sutherland,” “us,” or “we”) take the privacy of personal information seriously. This Privacy Statement applies to all users (“you” or “your”) of Perennials & Sutherland websites, computer or mobile applications (collectively, and together with any updates thereto, the “Services”).

This Privacy Statement explains how Perennials & Sutherland collects and treats information we collect about you when you visit, access or otherwise use the Services. Your access and use of the Services may be accompanied by additional terms related to privacy and our collection and use of your personal information. By accessing and using the Services, you agree to such additional terms and the terms of this privacy statement (“Privacy Statement”), as may be revised by us from time to time in accordance with this Privacy Statement. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, you must immediately cease use of the Services.

If you are an EU national and reside in the EU, or are a non-EU national residing in the EU, the data controller (as defined under EU data protection law) will be Perennials & Sutherland or relevant affiliate you engage with.  Our representative for purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) is Mills & Reeve LLP and may be contacted using the contact information set forth under the “Contact Us” section below.

[If you are a California resident, please be sure to review the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) supplement to this Privacy Statement below, which provides additional information regarding your rights and our obligations to you under the CCPA.]

Information Collection and Use

  1. Information We Collect. We may collect information that that relates to identified or identifiable individuals (“Personal Information”), which are provided through use of the Services.  Such information and the means by which we may collect it may include without limitation the following:

    a. Information You Provide. As part of registering with or otherwise accessing and using the Services, you may be asked to provide certain Personal Information, including, but not limited to, your name, e-mail address, phone number, and mailing address. You may choose not to provide Personal Information, but some features of the Services may be unavailable.

    b. Information Collected Automatically. In addition to the Personal Information you provide, Perennials & Sutherland and its subsidiaries, affiliates, and agents may collect and use diagnostic, technical, and other usage information related to your use of the Services (“Non-Personal Information”). Non-Personal Information collected may include, without limitation, device information such as IP address, device ID, operating system, browser, and geo-location for any device you use to access the Services, and usage information such as clicks, interactions, pages or screens viewed, requests made, and features used.

    c. Cookies and Similar Technologies. Like most companies, Perennials & Sutherland collects information through cookies and related technologies. When you use our Services, cookies and related technologies, including web beacons, may collect information such as whether you have used the Services before, which pages you have chosen to visit, what search terms you entered, your IP address, your browser type and language, the date and time you access our Services and the website from which you linked to our Services.  We may also use such information to analyze trends and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.  You may also be able to save preferences for our Services if you have cookies enabled, which may expedite your use of our Services if you visit or otherwise use them frequently. If you disable cookies or related functions, certain features of our Services may not be accessible to you or may not function optimally. Please see our Cookie Notice and Disclosure page for more information and, where applicable, instructions on how to disable certain of these functions if you wish to do so.

    d. Perennials & Sutherland reserves the right to update and modify these Terms and Conditions at any time without prior notice. Those changes will go into effect on the Last Updated Date shown in the revised Terms and Conditions. By continuing to use the Sites, you are agreeing to the revised Terms and Conditions. For this reason, we encourage you to review these Terms and Conditions whenever you use our Sites.

    e. Do Not Track. Because of uncertainty in the industry surrounding the use of “do not track” signals that may be transmitted by some web browsers, at this time Perennials & Sutherland does not take action in response to these signals.

    Perennials & Sutherland is entitled to process your personal information as necessary for the performance of the engagement with you in connection with the Services, or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into an engagement.  Our legal basis for such processing includes performance of contract. Apart from this, the information we collect upon your use of our Services is collected based on our legitimate interest to provide the Services and our online services to you. A legitimate interest is when we have a business or commercial reason to use your information, so long as this is not overridden by your own rights and interests.
  2. Uses of Information. We may use or disclose your Personal Information and Non-Personal Information for the following purposes:

    a. To fulfill or meet the reason for which the information is provided;

    b. to administer, develop, or improve our Services;

    c. To carry out our obligations and enforce our rights arising from any contracts entered into between you and us, including for billing and collections.

    d. to better understand how users and customers are using our Services;

    e. As described to you when collecting your personal information or as otherwise set forth in applicable law.

    f. to prevent or investigate fraud and other prohibited or illegal activities and to otherwise comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements and industry standards;

    g. to protect the rights, safety, security and integrity of the Services, our property and our customers, employees and others;

    h. to respond to specific user requests;

    i. to provide the services and products you have ordered or purchased;

    j. to evaluate or conduct a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which Personal Information and/or Non-Personal Information held by us is among the assets

    k. transferred; for our legitimate interests or those of a third party;

    l. where you have otherwise given consent; and

    m. to enforce the Terms of Use and this Privacy Statement.
  3. Promotional Communications.  In addition to the foregoing, we may use your Personal information to send you updates (by email, text message, telephone or post) about our products or services, including promotions or new products or services.  We have a legitimate interest in processing your Personal Information for promotional purposes. 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 or share it with other organizations outside of Perennials & Sutherland or its affiliates for marketing purposes. 

    You have the right to opt out of receiving promotional communications at any time by:

    – Contacting us at info@perennialsfabrics.com;

    – Using the “unsubscribe” link in emails; or

    – updating your marketing preferences in your account with us.

    We may ask you to confirm or update your marketing preferences if you instruct us to provide further products or services in the future, or if there are changes in the law, regulation, or the structure of our business.
  4. Sharing and Transfer of Information. Except as described below and as otherwise necessary to perform the activities described in Section 2 of this Privacy Statement (which may include outsourcing one or more of the functions described above), Perennials & Sutherland will not share the Personal Information that you provide to us with any third parties.

    a. Update of Personal Information.  We may disclose Personal Information to confirm or update information provided by you.

    b. Legal Requirements. We may disclose Personal Information if required to do so by law or legal process or in connection with legal requests by law enforcement or government officials. We also may disclose Personal Information if we reasonably believe disclosure is urgently required to prevent harm to persons or property or in connection with investigations of fraud or suspected illegal activity.

    c. Business Transactions Affecting Perennials & Sutherland. We may transfer any Personal Information in the event of a sale, merger, acquisition or other transfer of all or any portion of our business or assets.

    d. Security and Protection. Perennials & Sutherland uses reasonable measures to protect the Personal Information we collect, but no online transmission of data can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Therefore, you accept and assume the inherent risks of online communication, including without limitation the risks of interception, unauthorized access, data loss or corruption, or viruses and other harmful programs.

    In cases where information is shared, we will seek assurances where practicable that the receiving party has implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure the security of your personal data.  Such sharing could also include sharing your Personal Information outside of your country (which could include outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”)) to another country that does not have similar data protection legislation and may provide a lower level of protection for your information.  Such transfers could include, for example:

    – Transfers to our affiliates whose offices are outside of the EEA;

    – With your and our service providers located outside of the EEA;

    – If you are based outside the EEA; or

    These transfers are subject to special rules under European and UK data protection law.  These non-EEA countries may not have the same data protection laws as the United Kingdom and EEA.  We will, however, take steps where practicable to ensure the transfer complies with data protection law and all personal information will be secure.

    The legal basis for the transfer of your Personal Information under data protection legislation will be that it is necessary for the fulfillment of our engagement, or necessary for the purpose of our legitimate interest to provide you with our Services in the most efficient way.
  5. Where Your Personal Information is Held. Information may be held at our offices and those of our, affiliates, third party agencies, service providers, representatives and agents as described above (see above: “Sharing and Transfer of Information”). 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 above: “Sharing and Transfer of Information”.
  6. How Long Your Personal Information Will Be Kept. We will keep your Personal Information while you have an account with us or while we are providing products and/or 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; or

    – To keep records required by law.

    We will not retain your personal information for longer than necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Statement. Different retention periods apply for different types of personal information.
