SECTION 2 – BEHAVIORAL TRACKING; CALIFORNIA DO NOT TRACK NOTICE

Behavioral Tracking/California Users

California law requires website and online service operators to disclose whether they and/or third-parties may collect personal information about their users’ online activities over time and across different sites when the users use the applicable operator’s website or service. Luxe Beauty, Inc., as well as third-parties that have content or services on the Site (as further detailed below), such as a social feature, analytics service or an advertising network partner, may obtain information about your browsing or usage habits but this information does not include personal information. These third parties do not necessarily change their tracking practices in response to “do-not-track” signals from your web browser and we do not obligate these third parties to honor “do-not-track” signals.  To learn more about browser tracking signals and “Do Not Track,” please visit http://allaboutdnt.org.

California law also requires that website and online service operators are required to disclose how they respond to web browser “do not track” signals or other similar mechanisms that provide consumers with the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection and use of personal information about a consumer’s online activities over time and across third-party websites.  We currently do not change our tracking practices in response to “do-not-track” signals or other similar mechanisms.

Third Party Activity

As mentioned above, we allow third-party companies to collect certain information when you visit the Site. These companies may utilize cookies, pixels or other technologies to collect and use both personally identifiable information (e.g., your name, phone number, physical or electronic address, etc.) and non-personally identifiable information (e.g., click stream information, browser type, time and date, subject of advertisements clicked or scrolled over, etc.) during your visits to the Site, as well as when you visit other websites, in order to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of greater interest to you. To the greatest extent permissible under applicable law, we are not responsible for the tracking practices of third parties in connection with the Site.

Users may be able to disable some, but not all, of this tracking activity by utilizing the “Do Not Track” setting or similar options within most major Internet browsers. To learn more about this behavioral advertising practice, as well as to learn about other options for opting-out of this type of advertising, you can visit the websites of the Digital Advertising Alliance at www.aboutads.info and/or Networking Advertising Initiative at www.networkadvertising.org/choices.

Without limiting the foregoing, Google Inc. (“Google®”), in its capacity as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to: (a) track user activity on our Site (including session length, pages visited, actions taken, etc.); and (b) serve ads on our Site and other online venues, based on users’ visits to our Site and/or other websites on the Internet.  Luxe Beauty, Inc.  and Google® may use the cookie data, and other data collected, as permitted under this Privacy Policy. You may opt-out of Google’s® tracking as set forth below:

Where you provide “prior express written consent” within the meaning of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (47 USC § 227), and its implementing regulations adopted by the Federal Communications Commission (47 CFR § 64.1200), as amended from time-to-time (“TCPA”), you consent to receive, from Luxe Beauty, inc., telephone calls, including artificial voice calls, pre-recorded messages and/or calls (including SMS text messages) delivered via automated technology, to the telephone number(s) that you provided.  Please note that you are not required to provide this consent in order to obtain access to the Site Offerings or purchase Products, and your consent simply allows Luxe Beauty, Inc. to contact you via these means.  Please be advised that by agreeing to this Privacy Statement, you are obligated to immediately inform us if and when the telephone number that you have previously provided to us changes.  Without limiting the foregoing, if you: (i) have your telephone number reassigned to another person or entity; (ii) give up your telephone number so that it is no longer used by you; (iii) port your telephone number to a landline or vice versa; or (iv) otherwise stop using that telephone number for any reason (collectively “Phone Number Change”), you agree that you shall promptly notify us of the Phone Number Change via e-mail at: hello@luxebeauty.com, or by using one of the methods set forth in the “Contact Us” section below.

SECTION 9 - THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES/SERVICE PROVIDERS; INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

This Site may contain links to third-party owned and/or operated websites including, without limitation, the Social Media Websites.  Luxe Beauty, Inc. is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites.  Once you leave our Site or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Statement or our Terms of Service.

These third-party websites have separate privacy and data collection practices and Luxe Beauty, Inc. has no responsibility or liability relating to them.  In addition, the third-party service providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services that they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies with respect to the information that we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so that you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers. In particular, remember that certain service providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or Luxe Beauty, Inc.  If you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, please be advised that your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located. For example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Without limiting the foregoing, if you are visiting the Site from a country other than the country in which our servers are located, your communications with us may result in the transfer of information across international boundaries.  By visiting the Site, and/or otherwise communicating electronically with us, you consent to such transfers.  Even if your jurisdiction does not have the same privacy laws as the jurisdiction where our servers are located, we will treat your information as subject to the protections described in this Privacy Statement.

SECTION 11 - SECURITY

We endeavor to safeguard and protect our users’ personal information.  When users make personal information available to us, their personal information is protected both online and offline (to the extent that we maintain any personal information offline).  Where we ask users to enter Sensitive Information, if ever, and when we store and transmit such Sensitive Information, that information is encrypted with advanced TLS (Transport Layer Security).   

Access to your personal information is strictly limited, and we take reasonable measures to ensure that your personal information is not accessible to the public.  All of our users’ personal information is restricted in our offices, as well as the offices of our third-party service providers.  Only employees or third-party agents who need user personal information to perform a specific job are granted access to user personal information.  Our employees are dedicated to ensuring the security and privacy of all user personal information.  Employees not adhering to our firm policies are subject to disciplinary action.  The servers that we store user personal information on are kept in a secure physical environment.  We also have security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of personal information under our control. 

Please be advised, however, that while we take every reasonable precaution available to protect your data, no storage facility, technology, software, security protocols or data transmission over the Internet or via wireless networks can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.  Computer hackers that circumvent our security measures may gain access to certain portions of your personal information, and technological bugs, errors and glitches may cause inadvertent disclosures of your personal information; provided, however, that any attempt to breach the security of the network, our servers, databases or other hardware or software may constitute a crime punishable by law.  For the reasons mentioned above, we cannot warrant that your personal information will be absolutely secure.  Any transmission of data at or through the Site, other Site Offerings or otherwise via the Internet or wireless networks, is done at your own risk.

In compliance with applicable federal and state laws, we shall notify you and any applicable regulatory agencies in the event that we learn of an information security breach with respect to your personal information.  You will be notified via e-mail in the event of such a breach.  Please be advised that notice may be delayed in order to address the needs of law enforcement, determine the scope of network damage, and to engage in remedial measures.

SECTION 12 - DELETING, MODIFYING AND UPDATING YOUR INFORMATION

At your request, we will: (a) inform you of what personal information we have on file for you; (b) amend the personal information that we have on file for you; and/or (c) remove personal information that you have provided to us, or that we have collected.  You may do so by e-mailing us at: hello@luxebeauty.com  We ask individual users to identify themselves and the information requested to be accessed, corrected or removed before processing such requests, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, we may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup tapes).

Please be advised that deleting your personal information may terminate your access to certain of the Site Offerings.  If you wish to continue using the full complement of Site Offerings, you may not be able to delete all of the personal information that we have on file for you.
