Use of cookies

This website uses cookies to improve your shopping experience. Cookies are pieces of computer code stored on your computer or other mobile/handheld device when you visit certain pages of this website. Cookies do not contain any personally identifiable information and are not harmful to your computer but can be used to ‘remember’ previous visits to our website.

Linking to other websites?

The website contains hyperlinks to websites owned and operated by third parties. These websites have their own privacy policies and we urge you to review them. They will govern the use of Personal Information you submit whilst visiting these websites. We do not accept any responsibility or liability for the privacy practices of such third-party websites and your use of such websites is at your own risk.

Security

Personal Information stored electronically is password-protected. Encryption technology is used on our secured web areas. Our computer systems are placed in restricted areas. YVES ROCHER HK only permits authorised employees to access Personal Information. These employees are trained on our Privacy Policy.

IP Addresses

We study visitor trends since we are interested in the successful dissemination of information through the websites. Our server creates log files of information such as the Internet Protocol (IP) address from your network, what pages were explored and the length of your visit. Analysis software is used to generate reports which help us to learn more about how we can enhance your experience with the website. This information is not used to develop a personal profile of you. The log files are regularly deleted. An IP address is a number designated for your computer by your Internet service provider to provide access to the Internet. Generally, an IP address will change every time your computer connects to the Internet. However, if you have a broadband connection, it is possible that the IP address that we may gather may contain information that may be deemed Personal Information. This could occur due to the fact that by using certain broadband connections, your IP address would not change and could be associated with your personal computer. We may use your IP address to gather aggregate information on use. But we will only be able to identify you individually if we have the means of linking the IP address to you as a particular user. This usually requires access to additional information which we do not seek.

Your rights concerning your Personal Information

In accordance with applicable law, you have the right to request access to the Personal Information that we hold on you, to have any errors in that information corrected, to request that the Personal Information is deleted as well as to object, on request and free of charge, to the processing of your Personal Information for direct marketing purposes.

Please address by mail to 501, 9 Chong Yip Street, Ngau Tau Kok, Hong Kong or by email. We will address your queries in accordance with the regime established by the applicable legislation.
