Notice of Financial Incentives

When you sign up to receive direct marketing from us, including via email, we may provide special offers, benefits, or discount coupons.  When you sign up, we typically ask for your name, email address, birthday month, or other information that we may collect in accordance with this Privacy Policy.  Because we collect personal information, this may be interpreted as a “financial incentive” program under California law or a “bona fide loyalty program” under Colorado law. Kendra Scott may share this personal information for the purposes described in our “Notice at Collection,” including for targeted advertising. Kendra Scott may share your personal information with third parties as described in our “Notice at Collection,” including advertising networks, data analytics providers, and social networks.

The terms applicable to our promotions are available in our Terms & Conditions found here under “Kendra Scott Insider and Birthday Discount” or provided to you when you sign up. You have the right to opt-out of direct marketing at any time by clicking the opt-out link at the bottom of email communications or by contacting us using the contact information provided below under “How to Contact Us.”

If you ask us to delete your personal information, we will not be able to provide you with these benefits. The value of your personal information that we collect is reasonably related to the expenses related to the discounts and other perks that we offer.

8.  LOCATION OF DATA PROCESSING

Because we are based in the United States, when you interact with us we will process and store your personal information in the United States.  Your personal information may be subject to data protection and other laws that may be different from those in your country of residence. 

For purchases made by customers located outside of the U.S., Kendra Scott uses a third-party merchant of record called Global-e. As an international customer, you may create an account with Global-e and provide payment information using their payment gateway. Use of Global-e is subject to the Global-e Privacy Policy. You can find Global-e’s Privacy Policy here .
