This Privacy Policy details Bayard Group’s commitments regarding the protection of your personal data as customer or web visitor and service user. It sets out how your personal data is collected and used, as well as your rights in this respect.
Bayard Group complies with the French Data Protection Act, no. 78 of 6 January 1978 as amended, the French “Trust and the Digital Economy” Act, no. 2004 – 575 of 21 June 2004 as well as the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 of 27 April 2016 (“GDPR”).
Bayard Group has appointed a Data Protection Officer who is responsible for properly applying the law and ensuring your rights to access, rectify, object, erase, restrict and portability created by the aforementioned texts ([email protected]).
Bayard Group’s Privacy Policy applies on top of the General Terms and Conditions of Usage and General Terms and Conditions of Sale of websites where they exist.
II. What personal data is collected on our websites and why ?
As Data controller under the French Data Protection Act and the GDPR, Bayard Group is responsible for the personal data it collects.
The data is collected to allow you, as client, prospect or ordinary user of our services, to receive personalised information, to manage your orders, as well as enable us to offer you tailored commercial offers and, where applicable, to pass on offers from our partners. This data also allows our departments to run and improve our marketing activities and services for our clients.
When collecting your personal data, you are advised when the requested information is required, in order to be able to enjoy a service, and when it is optional, as well as of the consequences of not providing us with a particular piece of information. You are also informed of how Bayard Group will use your data, of your right to access, rectify, object, erase, data portability and processing restrictions, and of the fate of your data after your death.
Self-reported data : Bayard Group collects the data needed to use the service of your choice, or to manage your order. The data collected for this purpose may include: your first names and surnames, your postal address, your email address, your telephone number and your date of birth. This may be supplemented by information on your household (number and age of children, areas of interest).
You may also be asked if you would like to receive commercial offers by emails from Bayard Group or its partners. Pursuant to the French “Trust and the Digital Economy” Act, you must clearly express your consent by ticking a box confirming your agreement, as the case may be. You may withdraw your consent at any time. You are informed that if you place an order with a Bayard group company, it may send you offers for products similar to what you have already ordered, on the legal basis of its legitimate interest. You will of course be able to object at any time and exercise your rights to access, erase your personal data or restrict the processing. However, you cannot call into question the legality of the processing prior to the removal.
When you give your mobile phone number to a Bayard group company when placing an order, it may inform you that you are likely to receive commercial offers by SMS for products similar to what you have already ordered. You are then informed how you can object to this at any time and upon collection of your telephone number.
If you agree to receive commercial offers from Bayard partners, your email address will never be transmitted to our partners. Those emails are sent by Bayard and the partners do not have access to your email address until you subscribe to the proposed offer.
All this data is stored in our customer database, in order to communicate with you and tailor offerings to your needs.
Behavioural data : you may fill out online surveys run by Bayard Group in your capacity as a customer and/or user of products or services. Such surveys are anonymous. However, we may ask for your agreement to retain self-reported behavioural data that is linked to your customer account. You are then advised of your rights to access, rectify, erase and object and how to exercise them.
Browsing data : We may also collect data concerning any interactions you have with Bayard Group services (page loads, button clicks, click rates on newsletters, banners, etc.) in order to provide tailored offerings, and in general improve our services in line with customer expectations. In such circumstances, we therefore collect and process this data with your agreement. You are then advised of your rights to access, rectify, object and erase, data portability and processing restrictions, and how to exercise them.
This data is then collected by trackers and/or cookies. A cookie is a small text file stored on your computer’s hard disk at the request of the server running the website visited. It contains information on browsing history on this website and facilitates subsequent usage of the website the next time you visit.

Here are our partners:
Whenever you place an order on the https://www.bayard-jeunesse.com/ or https://milan-jeunesse.com/ online stores, you can choose to send a referral to your friends, through the Mention Me window that will appear. You can also start the referral process via a landing page on the website. You are free to decide whether or not to send a referral. If you decide to do so, you can send a personally-created link to a friend via email, Facebook, Messenger, or WhatsApp. Subsequently, both you and the person to whom you have sent a referral will receive a referral reward, provided that they place an order on this website.
To this end, the Bayard Group will share your personal data (email address, name, and order details) in encrypted and pseudonymised form with Mention Me, so that you can participate in our “referral programme”. This enables us to determine which customer is the referrer of a new customer, and who should receive a reward for their referral. Only people who are not yet customers of Bayard or Milan Jeunesse can benefit from the discount offer as referees.
Your personal data will be processed by Mention Me on behalf of the Bayard Group on the legal basis of legitimate interest for the following purposes:
- Enrolling customers in our referral programme;
- Programme monitoring and protection against gambling or fraudulent use of the programme;
- Communicating with customers about the programme and promotional codes;
- Providing Bayard with reports and statistics on the operation of the programme.
If you agree to send a referral to a friend, their email address, name, and IP address will be processed. The referee’s email address and IP address will also be processed for this purpose, once they have freely entered their details in the “Referral” form. In both cases, data is exclusively shared in pseudonymised form.
Once you, or your friend, decide to take part in the programme, your data will be processed with your explicit consent only or on the basis of the consent of the referee. You or your friend may withdraw your consent at any time.
You can also access the referral programme via your Bayard customer account in the Referrals Area.
