Who Is Responsible for Your Personal Information?

Gegevensbescherming is belangrijk voor ons. We aim to collect only the information reasonably necessary to communicate with customers, evaluate custom denim projects and provide manufacturing services.

For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, the organization responsible for determining how personal information is collected and used is:

Depending on the applicable law, we may be described as the “data controller,” “business,” or “personal information handler.”

What Legal Bases Do We Rely On?

Where applicable data-protection law requires a legal basis, we may process personal information on one or more of the following grounds:

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing that was lawful before consent was withdrawn.

Orders, Invoices and Payment Information

When a custom manufacturing order is confirmed, payment may be arranged separately through an agreed bank, payment institution or other authorized payment channel.

The financial institution or payment provider may process payment information under its own privacy policy. We may retain limited transaction information such as:

• Payer or company name.
• Invoice number and purchase-order reference.
• Payment amount and currency.
• Payment date and transaction reference.
• Bank-transfer confirmation or proof of payment.

We use this information for order confirmation, accounting, contract administration and dispute prevention.

Do We Use Cookies and Similar Technologies?

Ja. Cookies are small text files stored on your device or in your browser. They may help the website function correctly, remember preferences, maintain security and understand general website usage.

Where required by applicable law, we request consent before placing non-essential analytics or marketing cookies. Strictly necessary cookies may operate because they are required to provide the website or maintain its security.

You may control or delete cookies using your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect language selection, contact forms or other website functions.

Do We Share Information With Outside Parties?

Information may be shared with the following categories:

• Website hosting, server, security and content-delivery providers.
• Contact-form, email and business communication providers.
• Analytics providers where analytics services are enabled.
• Translation, website maintenance and technical-support providers.

• Banks and payment providers for confirmed business orders.
• Accountants, legal advisers, insurers and professional consultants.
• Government authorities where disclosure is legally required.
• A buyer or successor in connection with a legitimate business transfer.

Service providers should receive only the information reasonably necessary for their assigned task and should be required to protect it appropriately.

International Data Transfers

LUOKUGG works with international customers while operating from China. As a result, information submitted through Luxappare.com may be accessed, processed or stored in China and in other countries where our service providers operate.

Data-protection laws may differ between countries. Where applicable law requires additional safeguards for an international transfer, we will use appropriate contractual, organizational or other legally recognized measures.

Business files may also be shared with relevant production, inspection or logistics partners when necessary to complete your requested manufacturing service.

How Long Do We Keep Your Information?

We do not intend to store every category of personal information indefinitely. Retention depends on the purpose of collection, the business relationship and applicable legal requirements.

When information is no longer required, we may delete it, anonymize it or securely restrict further use, subject to technical and legal limitations.

How Do We Protect Your Information?

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal and business information against unauthorized access, verlies, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Customers should also protect their own email accounts, devices and communication credentials.

If you believe information sent to us has been accessed or used improperly, contact us promptly at support@luxappare.com .

• Stof, wash and customization information.
• Low MOQ or private-label manufacturing services.

To protect your information, we may request reasonable verification before completing a privacy request. We may also retain limited information where required by law or necessary for legal claims, fraud prevention or contractual records.

Third-Party Links and Communication Platforms

Our website may include links to WhatsApp, social media platforms, shipping providers or other third-party websites. When you leave Luxappare.com, the third party may collect and process information according to its own privacy policy.

For example, when you contact us through WhatsApp, the platform provider may process your account details, device information and message metadata independently from us.

We encourage you to review the privacy information of external services before submitting personal or confidential business information through them.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of independent third-party websites or platforms that we do not control.
