Third parties and customer data

Under no circumstances do we ever share, sell or trade any form of information regarding our customers to any third party for commercial benefit. The only cases we share customer information with third parties are when; 1. A customer places an order to be shipped using a courier, in which case we share customer name, mobile phone number, e-mail address and postal address with the transportation company (DHL) in order to fulfill the delivery and notifications. 2. A customer signs up to receive newsletters from Galoppshopen.se. In that case the customer e-mail address is stored in our external mailing systems for electronic newsletter mailings (MailChimp) but is still under our control and is never shared with other third parties beyond that. No personal data, other than the e-mail address, is submitted to MailChimp unless the visitor have previously created an account at MailChimp, in which case that existing account will be used to link to the Galoppshopen.se newsletter. For further information on MailChimp's privacy policy, please refer to the MailChimp website (http://www.mailchimp.com/)
