Information that we collect from third parties will generally consist of publicly-available profile information (such as your preferences and interests), for example from public social media posts.

For what purposes do we use information about you, and on what legal basis?

In this section, we describe the purposes for which we use personal information. However, this is a global notice, and where the laws of a country restrict or prohibit certain activities described in this notice, we will not use information about you for those purposes in that country.

Subject to the above, we use information about you for the following purposes:

• To comply with regulatory obligations, such as verifying your age and status as a user of our products

• To sell our products to you, including fulfilling your orders, processing your payments

• To provide sales-related services to you, including dealing with your inquiries and requests, and providing warranty services

• To market our products (where permitted by law), including administering loyalty programs, product improvement, market research, developing marketing strategies, administering marketing campaigns, and customizing your experiences at outlets that sell PMI products and at events

• For us or our business partners to inform you of potential opportunities to get involved in marketing PMI products (where permitted by law)

• To support all the above, including administering your accounts, enabling you to use Consumer touchpoints, corresponding with you, managing your appointments with us or with someone supporting our products or services (for example, regarding a new product, or after-sales service), customizing your experiences of Consumer touchpoints, and administration and troubleshooting

• For business analytics and improvements, including improving PMI products, outlets and events, and the information that we provide to our customers

• For other purposes that we notify you of, or will be clear from the context, at the point information about you is first collected

The legal basis for our use of information about you is one of the following:

• compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject;

• the performance of a contract to which you are a party;

• a legitimate business interest that is not overridden by interests you have to protect the information;

• where none of the above applies, or where law requires it, your consent (which we will ask for before we process the information).

The purposes for which we use information about you, with corresponding methods of collection and legal basis for use, are:

Where we do not base our use of information about you on one of the above legal bases, or where law requires it, we will ask for your consent before we process the information (these cases will be clear from the context).

In some instances, we may use information about you in ways that are not described above. Where this is the case, we will provide a supplemental privacy notice that explains such use. You should read any supplemental notice in conjunction with this notice.

Who do we share your information with, and for what purposes?

We may share information about you with:

• PMI affiliates;

• third parties who provide Gulf Taleed, PMI affiliates or you with products or services;

• Gulf Taleed’s or PMI affiliates’ carefully selected business partners and advertisers (in areas connected with our products, or consistent with their style and image) so that they can contact you with offers that they think may interest you, in accordance with your preferences; and

• other third parties, where required or permitted by law.

We share information about you with others only in accordance with applicable laws. Thus, where law requires your consent, we will first ask for it.

Sharing data with PMI affiliates

• Information about you will be shared with Philip Morris Products S.A. (based in Neuchâtel, Switzerland), which is the place of central administration of personal data processing for PMI affiliates. Philip Morris Products S.A. processes the information about you for all the purposes described in this notice.

• Information about you may be shared with the PMI affiliate that is responsible for the country in which you live (if it wasn’t the PMI affiliate that first collected the information) for all the purposes described in this notice.

• Information about you may be shared with any other PMI affiliate that you contact (for example, if you travel and you want to know where to buy PMI products in a new country, or where to find service or support for PMI products) in order to enhance our service to you.

Details of PMI affiliates and the countries in which they are established are available here .

Sharing data with Third Parties

• To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may share information about you with third parties who provide Gulf Taleed, PMI affiliates or you with products or services (such as advisers, payment service providers, delivery providers, retailers, product coaches, information services providers and age verification providers).

• To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may share information about you with Gulf Taleed’s and/or PMI affiliates’ carefully-selected third party business partners and advertisers (in line with the kind of thing you might associate with our products, for example because they have similar or complementary image, style, or functionality) so that they can contact you with products, services and promotions that they think may interest you, in accordance with your preferences.

• We may share information about you with other third parties, where required or permitted by law, for example: regulatory authorities; government departments; in response to a request from law enforcement authorities or other government officials; when we consider disclosure to be necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss or in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal activity; and in the context of organizational restructuring.

Where might information about you be sent?

As with any multinational organization, PMI affiliates transfer information globally once shared with PMI affiliates. Accordingly, information about you may be transferred globally (for example, if you are in the European Economic Area (“ EEA ”), your information may be transferred outside the EEA).

When using information as described in this notice, information about you may be transferred either within or outside the country or territory where it was collected, including to a country or territory that may not have equivalent data protection standards.

For example, PMI affiliates within the EEA may transfer personal information to PMI affiliates outside the EEA. In all such cases, the transfer will be:

• on the basis of a European Commission adequacy decision ;

• subject to appropriate safeguards, for example the EU Model Contracts ; or

• necessary to discharge obligations under a contract between you and us (or the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken at your request) or for the conclusion or performance of a contract concluded in your interest between us and a third party, such as in relation to travel arrangements.

In all cases, appropriate security measures for the protection of personal information will be applied in those countries or territories, in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

How do we protect information about you?

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal information that we hold from unauthorized disclosure, use, alteration or destruction. Where appropriate, we use encryption and other technologies that can assist in securing the information you provide. We also require our service providers to comply with strict data privacy and security requirements.

How long will information about you be kept?

We will retain information about you for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes for which the information was collected. After that, we will delete it. The period will vary depending on the purposes for which the information was collected. Note that in some circumstances, you have the right to request us to delete the information. Also, we are sometimes legally obliged to retain the information, for example, for tax and accounting purposes.

Typically, we retain data based on the criteria described in the table below:

What rights and options do you have?

You may have some or all of the following rights in respect of information about you that we hold:

• request us to give you access to it;

• request us to rectify it, update it, or erase it;

• request us to restrict our using it, in certain circumstances;

• object to our using it, in certain circumstances;

• withdraw your consent to our using it;

• data portability, in certain circumstances;

• opt out from our using it for direct marketing; and

• lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in your country (if there is one).

We offer you easy ways to exercise these rights, such as “unsubscribe” links, or through our contact address provided for on the website.

Some mobile applications we offer might also send you push messages, for instance about new products or services. You can disable these messages through the settings in your phone or the application.

The rights you have depend on the laws of your country. If you are in the European Economic Area, you will have the rights set out in the table below. If you are elsewhere, you can contact us (see the paragraph “who should you contact with questions?” at the end of this notice) to find out more.

Who should you contact with questions?

If you have any questions, or wish to exercise any of your rights, you can send an email to  contact.sa@iqos.com . 

If your country has a data protection authority, you have a right to contact it with any questions or concerns. If we cannot resolve your questions or concerns, you also have the right to seek judicial remedy before a national court.

Changes to this notice

We may update this notice (and any supplemental privacy notice), from time to time. We will notify you of the changes where required by law to do so. We may announce the update on the website or via any other mean, we deem suitable.
