This Policy also describes how your personal data is used (processed), shared and protected, and our legal basis for doing these things. It also explains the choices you have relating to your personal data and how you can contact us.
I. WHO is Responsible for the Processing of Your Personal Data?
For the purposes of UK and EU data protection laws, the data controller is Marchon Europe B.V, trading as Dragon Alliance (“Dragon”), located at Deccaweg 33, 1042 AE, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
II. WHAT Personal Data We Collect and WHEN
We ask you for certain personal data in order to provide you with the products or services you request.

This personal data includes your:
We use additional personal data in order to enable particular features within our site and Apps or services. For example, we request access to your social network credentials in order to post content from an App to a social network. This personal data includes your:
• Photos, contacts and calendar information
• Social network information, including credentials and any information from your public posts about Dragon or your communications with us.
When you use our Apps, we inform you about our collection of your data in app stores, mobile operating systems, and in the App experience. We also prompt you for your consent where necessary.
When interacting with our site and Apps, data is automatically collected and shared with Dragon by the technology platforms providing the experience.

More information about these practices is included in the Cookies and Pixel Tags section below. This data includes:

• Cookies, IP addresses, referrer headers, data identifying your web browser and version, and web beacons and tags
III. Tools to Manage What We Collect
In many cases, your web browser or mobile device platform will provide additional tools to allow you to control when your device collects or shares particular categories of information. For example, your mobile device or web browser may offer tools to allow you to manage cookie usage or location sharing. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with and use the tools available on your devices.
IV. WHY and HOW We Use (Process) Your Personal Data
We use the personal data we collect from you in the following ways:
To Process your Orders
We gather this information to allow us to process your registration, process any orders you may make, provide the products requested and deliver them to you. The relevant information is then used by us, our agents and sub-contractors to communicate with you on any matter relating to the conduct of your account and the provision of the goods or services in general. Our legal basis for processing this data is to perform the contract with you.
To Conduct Data Checks
When you send us your order, we (or our agents and sub-contractors) may run some checks on it before it is fulfilled. These checks may include verifying your address, fraud checks and checks run in order to comply with US and EU financial sanctions programs. As to fraud checks: we run partly automated checks on all purchases to filter out unusual or suspect transactions, or transactions which can be identified as susceptible to fraud. Suspected fraud on the site will be investigated and if necessary prosecuted. Processing this data is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interest in preventing non-payment or fraud. As to sanctions checks: again we run partly automated checks on all orders.
To Provide the Features of the Site, Apps, and Services You Request
When you use our site and Apps, we will use your data to provide the product or service you have selected. For example, if you make a purchase on http://europe.dragonalliance.com/, or participate in an event or promotion, we will use the contact information you give us to communicate with you about the purchase, event or promotion. Your consent provides the legal basis for processing this data. If you use our Apps, we will collect the data you provide and store it so that you can review it in the App. We may use this data to calculate further information, so that the calculated information can be provided to you as part of the functionality of the App. Your consent is the legal basis for processing this data in this way.
In many cases, to use particular features within our site, Apps, and services you may need to provide Dragon with additional data and/or additional consent to use particular data in a certain way. For example, to share content on social media, you may be required to provide your social media account credentials.
You can withdraw your consent to the processing of your information in any of these ways through the App settings at any time.
To Communicate Information about our Products, Services, Events and for Other Promotional Purposes
When you create a Dragon user account, we may use the information you provide, as well as information from other Dragon sources, such as your use of Dragon’s site and Apps and your participation in Dragon events and competitions (possibly through other Dragon affiliates), to send you personalized communications on products and services that may be interesting for you.
You can withdraw your consent to receiving these communications at any time through your account settings.
To Operate, Improve and Maintain our Business, Products and Services
When you make a purchase, we may use that information for accounting, auditing and other internal functions. We may also use data about how you use our products and services to enhance your user experience and to help us diagnose technical and service problems and administer our site and Apps. If you add product reviews to our site, we may use that information to improve our products and the customer experience. Our legal basis for processing this data is that it is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate business interests as described above.
To Protect Our or Others' Rights, Property or Safety
We may also use data about how you use our site and Apps to prevent or detect fraud, abuse, illegal uses and violations of our Terms of Use (where necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests) and to comply with court orders, governmental request or applicable law.
For General Research and Analysis Purposes
We use data about how our visitors use our site, Apps and Services to understand customer behavior or preferences. For example, we may use information about how visitors to http://europe.dragonalliance.com/ search for and find products, to better understand the best ways to organize and present product offerings in our site. We use Google Analytics for this, and the customer data is anonymised.
Use (Processing) of Prescription or other Medical Data

As this information is considered sensitive personal data in the EU and certain other jurisdictions, we need your explicit consent to use it for this purpose, and we take appropriate measures to protect it. The company which operates the site will collect the prescription on our behalf and will send it and your order number to a manufacturer of prescription lenses in Switzerland. We will not disclose your prescription data to any other party.
