The information Sportchief collects about you is used to personalize and constantly improve the services during your visits to this website. This information is as follows:
INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE YOURSELF
Sportchief receives and stores all information you enter on this website or otherwise provide to it.

PROTECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Sportchief has implemented state-of-the-art security measures to protect you against the loss or unauthorized use of information about you that will be under the control of Sportchief, including information relating to your credit card.
No information related to the order, including your name, civic address and credit card number, circulates openly on the Web.
In addition, Sportchief's servers are protected by firewall-type technology. Sportchief is committed to ensuring that its equipment is always at the cutting edge of technology in order to allow you at all times to carry out secure transactions on this website.

Sportchief accepts no responsibility for the disclosure of such confidential information about you, except in cases of negligence on the part of Sportchief.
Sportchief reserves the right to modify this policy at any time. Sportchief also reserves the right to transmit personal information concerning you insofar as the law would require it to do so or in order to protect its rights of ownership of this website or those of its users, sponsors, advertisers or suppliers.
USE OF COOKIES

Sportchief uses cookies in order to establish the traffic of the website, to transmit information that will prove eminently useful to its marketing department, and to personalize the future use that you will make of the website. This technology does not systematically provide Sportchief with personal information about you.
