6. Lawful bases for processing

Depending on the situation, Aurivia relies on one or more of the following lawful bases:

Contract: Processing is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you, such as processing and delivering your order.

Legal obligation: Processing is necessary to meet legal, tax, accounting, regulatory, or consumer-protection obligations.

Legitimate interests: Processing is necessary for Aurivia’s legitimate business interests, provided those interests do not override your rights and freedoms. These interests may include fraud prevention, website security, customer support, business administration, and improving our services.

Consent: You have given clear consent for a particular purpose, such as certain marketing, analytics, or advertising activities. You may withdraw consent at any time.

Legal claims: Information may be processed where necessary to establish, exercise, or defend a legal claim.

7. Cookies and similar technologies

Aurivia may use cookies, pixels, tags, scripts, local storage, and similar technologies.

  • Account login and security.
  • Remembering customer preferences.
  • Fraud prevention.

You may stop receiving marketing communications at any time by:

  • Selecting the unsubscribe link in a marketing email.

Unsubscribing from marketing will not prevent Aurivia from sending essential messages relating to orders, payments, delivery, returns, refunds, security, or customer-service requests.

16. Children’s privacy

Aurivia’s website is intended for customers who are legally able to enter into online purchase agreements.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children without appropriate authorisation.

If you believe that a child has submitted personal information without appropriate permission, contact support@aurivia.store so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.

17. Automated decision-making

Aurivia does not ordinarily use personal information to make solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

Payment and fraud-prevention providers may use automated systems to evaluate transactions. This may result in a payment being delayed, declined, or referred for further review.

You may contact us for more information if you believe a transaction was affected by an automated assessment.

18. Third-party websites

Aurivia’s website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.
