PRIVACY POLICY
December 26, 2007
At ACT we recognize that privacy is important. This Policy applies to all of the products and services offered by Advanced Cosmetic Technologies LLC (ACT) or its subsidiaries or affiliated companies (collectively, ACT's "services").
If you have any questions about this Policy, please feel free to contact us through our website
Information we collect and how we use it:
| |
Information you provide - When you purchase products from our store, we ask you for personal information (such as your name, email address and mailing address).
Tracking cookies - When you visit our website, we (and/or third parties such as Google Analytics and Yahoo! Store) send one or more cookies - a small file containing a string of characters - to your computer that uniquely identifies your browser. We use cookies to improve the quality of our service by storing user preferences and tracking user trends, such as what pages you navigate through and what products you put into your shopping cart. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some ACT website features and services may not function properly if your cookies are disabled.
Log information - When you use ACT websites, our servers automatically record information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website. These server logs may include information such as your web request, Internet Protocol address, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request and one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser.
User communications - When you send email or other communication to ACT, we may retain those communications in order to process your inquiries, respond to your requests and improve our services.
Affiliated sites - We offer some of our services in connection with other web sites such as Yahoo! Store. Personal information that you provide to those sites may be sent to ACT in order to deliver the service. We process such information in accordance with this Policy. The affiliated sites may have different privacy practices and we encourage you to read their privacy policies.
Links - ACT may present links in a format that enables us to keep track of whether these links have been followed. We use this information to improve the quality of our services and provide customized content.
|
ACT only processes personal information for the purposes described in the Privacy Policy. In addition to the above, such purposes include:
| |
Providing our products and services to users, including the display of customized content;
Auditing, research and analysis in order to maintain, protect and improve our services;
Ensuring the technical functioning of our websites; and
Developing new services. |
You can decline to submit personal information when you order products from our online store, in which case ACT may not be able to process those orders.
Information sharing
ACT only shares personal information with other companies or individuals outside of ACT in the following limited circumstances:
| |
We provide such information to our subsidiaries, affiliated companies or other trusted businesses or persons for the purpose of processing personal information on our behalf. We require that these parties agree to process such information based on our instructions and in compliance with this Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
We have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to (a) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request, (b) enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations thereof, (c) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, or (d) protect against imminent harm to the rights, property or safety of ACT, its users or the public as required or permitted by law. |
If ACT becomes involved in a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale of some or all of its assets, we will provide notice before personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
Please contact us at the address below for any additional questions about the management or use of personal data.
Data integrity
ACT processes personal information only for the purposes for which it was collected and in accordance with this Policy or any applicable service-specific privacy notice. We review our data collection, storage and processing practices to ensure that we only collect, store and process the personal information needed to provide or improve our services. We take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we process is accurate, complete, and current, but we depend on our users to update or correct their personal information whenever necessary.
Changes to this policy
Please note that this Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We will post any Policy changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice (including, for certain services, email notification of Policy changes).
If you have any additional questions or concerns about this Policy, please feel free to contact us any time through this web site.
