5. Sharing of Personal Data

We do not sell your personal data. We share information only when necessary, with appropriate safeguards, and in line with this Privacy Policy.

5.1 Service providers and partners

To operate our e‑commerce platform and deliver your orders, we may share personal data with trusted third parties that act on our behalf, such as:

  • Payment processors – to securely process payments and prevent fraud. These providers handle sensitive card or banking data in accordance with industry standards.
  • Logistics and delivery partners – to deliver your purchases, enable shipment tracking, and handle returns and exchanges.
  • IT, hosting, and infrastructure providers – to host the Domlumo website, maintain our databases, and ensure reliable and secure operation.
  • Analytics and marketing partners – to help us analyze website usage, improve our services, and present relevant recommendations and offers.

These third parties are required to process personal data only in accordance with our instructions, to implement suitable security measures, and to comply with applicable data protection laws.

5.2 Legal requirements and protection

We may disclose your information when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to:

  • Comply with a legal obligation, court order, or request from a competent authority.
  • Protect the rights, property, or safety of Domlumo, our customers, or others.
  • Detect, prevent, or address fraud, security issues, or technical problems.

5.3 Business transfers

In the context of a reorganization, merger, acquisition, or transfer of all or part of our business, personal data may be transferred as part of the transaction, subject to appropriate confidentiality and data protection safeguards. In such cases, we will take steps to ensure your rights continue to be protected.

6. Data Security Measures

We implement technical, organizational, and administrative safeguards designed to protect your personal data.

We take the security of your personal information seriously and apply reasonable measures to protect it against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. These measures include, where appropriate:

  • Technical safeguards – such as encryption in transit, secure server configurations, access controls, and monitoring of our systems for potential vulnerabilities and incidents.
  • Organizational safeguards – including policies that limit access to personal data to employees and service providers that need it for specific purposes, and confidentiality obligations for those who handle such data.
  • Administrative safeguards – such as incident response procedures, vendor due diligence, and regular reviews of our privacy and security practices.

While we strive to protect your personal data, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is entirely risk‑free. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and for using unique, strong passwords for your Domlumo account.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Under applicable Dutch and EU data protection laws, you have a range of rights over your personal data.

Subject to certain conditions and limitations, you may have the following rights with respect to the personal data we hold about you:

  • Right of access – to obtain confirmation as to whether we process your personal data and to receive a copy of that data.
  • Right to rectification – to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information.
  • Right to erasure – to request deletion of your personal data where there is no valid reason for us to continue processing it.
  • Right to restriction of processing – to request that we temporarily or permanently restrict the processing of your personal data under specific circumstances.
  • Right to object – to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing based on our legitimate interests, including profiling. You also have an absolute right to object to direct marketing.
  • Right to data portability – to receive personal data you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine‑readable format, and to transmit that data to another controller where technically feasible.
  • Rights related to consent – where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal.

7.1 Exercising your rights

You can exercise your rights or ask questions about your privacy by contacting us using the details provided in the Contact and Updates section or via our Contact Us page. To help protect your privacy, we may need to verify your identity before responding to your request.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the EU Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. In the Netherlands, this is the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).

7.2 Marketing preferences and cookies

You can control your marketing preferences by following the unsubscribe instructions included in our marketing emails or by contacting us to update your choices. Your cookie preferences can be managed through your browser settings and as described in our Cookie Policy.

8. International Data Transfers

We may process and store your personal data outside your country of residence, with appropriate protection measures in place.

Domlumo is based in the Netherlands and serves customers primarily within the EU. However, some of our service providers and partners may be located or may process data in countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), which may have different data protection standards.

Where personal data is transferred to a country outside the EEA that has not been recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of data protection, we implement appropriate safeguards to protect your information, such as:

  • Entering into contracts based on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent legal mechanisms.
  • Requiring recipients to implement robust technical and organizational security measures.
  • Performing risk assessments and, where appropriate, supplementing safeguards in line with EU guidance.

If you would like more information about the safeguards we apply to international data transfers that affect your personal data, you can contact us using the details in the next section.
