**ARTMONISM**, a simplified joint-stock company registered with the Paris Trade and Companies Register, with its headquarters at 6 Rue Pavée, 75004 Paris, specializing in retail furniture trade, collects personal data only in the context of its in-store sales or on its website available at www.artmonism.com.
In accordance with the GDPR, personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, whether directly or indirectly, including references to an identifier such as a name, identification number, location data, online identifier, or one or more specific elements related to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that person (“Personal Data”).
**Collection of Personal Data**
**ARTMONISM** (www.artmonism.com) collects user data on the website (“the Site”) and during in-store purchases at Caravane. The personal data that may be collected includes:
– User account data: first name, last name, billing and shipping address, email address, phone number;

– Navigation data;
This personal data is solely intended to enable **ARTMONISM** to identify the user and process transactions made on the Site. Simply browsing the Site does not require registration or identification with **ARTMONISM**. However, any online order requires prior registration and the creation of a personal account. By creating a personal account on the Site, the user agrees and authorizes **ARTMONISM** to process their personal data in accordance with this Privacy Policy. The user commits to providing complete and accurate information during the registration process. Creating a personal account will result in the recording and processing of personal data, including IP addresses, which will be communicated to **ARTMONISM**. This recording and processing are intended to facilitate order processing and ensure delivery to the customer.
The data is exclusively for **ARTMONISM**’s use but may also be shared with its partners when the customer has expressly consented to such disclosure by checking the appropriate box during the order process. In no case will this data be transferred to third parties. Payment method data is collected directly by our credit card provider and online payment provider. This data is also retained for security purposes and to comply with legal and regulatory obligations and to enable **ARTMONISM** to improve its Site.
**Purposes of Personal Data Collection**
**ARTMONISM** does not share any personal data for commercial purposes with third parties. Personal data collected through the use of the site and physical stores serves the following purposes:
– **Account Management**: Execution of the contract between a customer and **ARTMONISM**.

These partners comply with all applicable laws and regulations related to data protection.
The user is informed that data may be disclosed to third parties in compliance with a law, regulation, or decision by a competent regulatory or judicial authority. User data is hosted within the European Union or, if applicable, stored in countries recognized by the European Commission as providing adequate protection.

This withdrawal does not affect the legality of processing carried out before the withdrawal. However, in the event of opposition to data processing, no further orders can be placed.
In case of dispute, the customer or user has the right to file a complaint with the CNIL (www.cnil.fr).
**Archiving and Storage of Data**
