YOUR DATA & DECATHLON
Find everything you need to know below
OUR COMMITMENTS
Your sporting data (i.e. the informated you have entrusted with us) will only be used by DECATHLON. We will ensure that your data is never sold or rented out: this is important to us. While we sometimes use outsourcers, they act only on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions.
On this page you will find all processes we carry out regarding your personal data: including where, wheen, how and why we process your data and also what your rights are.
Whatever your sport, whatever your passion, our aim is to support you as best we can in your sporting activities and choice of products. We won't offer you flippers and a swimsuit if you just bought a pair of skis, and we won't send you advice about yoga if you have just taken up judo.
HOW DO WE USE YOUR DATA?
Love buying new sports gear? Whether in the various sections of our stores or on the pages of our website, this is often the first step towards new sporting adventures.
But just when you can already imagine yourself with your new products in your hands (or on your feet), you have to fill out a data collection form! Have you experienced this situation? So have we. So what's the point of these forms? Let us explain:
We collect and process your personal data in order to manage your purchase (we may need your delivery address or invoicing address, for example) and to avoid fraudulent transactions (to prevent purchases made with a stolen bank card, for example). Finally, it goes without saying that we also process the data linked to your means of payment!
In order to offer you Klarna’s payment methods, we might in the checkout pass your personal data in the form of contact and order details to Klarna, in order for Klarna to assess whether you qualify for their payment methods and to tailor those payment methods for you. Your personal data transferred is processed in line with Klarna’s own privacy notice.

GOOD TO KNOW
Did you know? Your data may be transferred outside the European Union. Rest assured, such transfers are carried out very carefully. Let us explain...
Why do we transfer your data?
The data of your data outside the European Union is chiefly explained by the location of our outsourcers.
In effect, in order to offer you a high-quality service, we have decided to outsource certain operations to specialised service providers with extensive expertise in their fields (e.g. hosting). Some of these service providers are established outside the European Union.
How are these data transfers governed?
Irrespective of the countries in which our outsourcers are established, we always select them with the utmost care. This is particularly the case as regards the manner in which your data is kept secure. These outsourcers only act on DECATHLON's instructions and at no time use your data for anything other than to performs the services we hire them for. A contract is systematically signed between DECATHLON and the selected outsourcers.
Where our service providers are established outside the European Union, we seek to prioritise countries in which the legal system offers a satisfactory level of security. The list of such countries is available here https://www.cnil.fr/fr/la-protection-des-donnees-dans-le-monde
Where this is not possible, we manage such transfers using the appropriate legal mechanisms including, in particular, the signing of additional contractual clauses specifically designed for this type of transfer, or self-certification to the Privacy Shield (this system is only valid for service providers based in the United States).
https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/eu-us-privacy-shield/
How do you know if your data are transferred?
If you want to know if your data are transferred, you can refer to the section on "Transfers outside the EU" included in the description of the processing concerned.
Providing us with your data does not mean you lose control of them, on the contrary! Here's why:
You have a number of rights. Some apply to all data processing concerning you, while others depend on the type of processing concerned and, in particular, the legal grounds on which it is based (contract, legal obligation, consent, legitimate interest, etc.).
Please find below a brief description of these rights and how they are exercised.
For more detailed information on the rights associated with the data processing concerning you, please see the section on "Your rights" included in the description of the processing concerned.
Right of access:
The right enables you to question us as to the nature of the data processing concerning you (type of data, how they are collected, etc.). It also enables you to ask us for a copy of all information concerning you. This right applies regardless of the legal grounds for the processing concerning you.
Right of rectification:
Many situations may require you to update your data: moving house, marriage, new sport, etc. The right of rectification exists precisely for this reason. This right applies regardless of the legal grounds for the processing concerning you.
Right to object:
This is the right to say "no!", i.e. the right not to be included in data processing or the right to cease to be included. This right applies where the processing is based on Decathlon's "legitimate interest", provided this interest in not "compelling".
Right to erasure:
This is the right to be forgotten, and is perfectly normal. Decathlon has no reason to store your data when it is no longer necessary. All data concerning you are automatically erased on the expiry of the storage period indicated when the data are collected.
Where your data are subject to processing based on your consent or on the legitimate (but not compelling) interest of Decathlon, you can have your data erased early. How? Simply express your wish to withdraw your consent or exercise your right to object to the processing.
Right to portability:
This right entitles you to request to obtain the data concerning you where such data is subject to processing based on your consent or on a contractual relationship. How is this different from the right of access? We have an obligation to transmit the data in a format technically usable by yourself or by an entity other than Decathlon.
You can exercise your rights by contacting us at one of the following address:
- by e-mail: personaldata@decathlon.co.uk
- by post: Decathlon UK Ltd – Personal Data Protection – Canada Water Retail Park, Surrey Quays Road, London, SE16
To ensure your request is processed as efficiently as possible, don't forget:
- to indicate the type(s) of processing to which your request pertains
- to indicate the right(s) you wish to exercise
- to send us a copy of your ID (this data enables us to certify that the author of the request is indeed the person concerned by the processing).
If, despite all our efforts, you consider that your rights have not been respected, you may refer the matter to the ICO (The UK’s independent authority set up to uphold information rights in the public interest, promoting openness by public bodies and data privacy for individuals): https://ico.org.uk/
