What organizations are collecting the information?

In addition to our direct collection of information, our third party service vendors (such as credit card companies, clearinghouses and banks and including amazon.com) who may provide such services as credit, insurance, escrow, and sales services may collect this information from our visitors and authorized customers. We do not control how these third parties use such information, but we do ask them to disclose how they use personal information provided to them from visitors and authorized customers. Some of these third parties may be intermediaries that act solely as links in the distribution chain, and do not store, retain, or use the information given to them.

We may also use personally identifiable information to contact visitors and authorized customers in response to specific inquiries, or to provide requested information.

With whom may the information be shared?

Personally identifiable information about authorized customers may be shared with other authorized customers who wish to evaluate potential transactions with other authorized customers. We may share aggregated information about our visitors, including the demographics of our visitors and authorized customers, with our affiliated agencies and third party vendors. We also offer the opportunity to "opt out" of receiving information or being contacted by us or by any agency acting on our behalf.

What partners or service providers have access to personally identifiable information from visitors and/or authorized customers on the site?

microdermabrasion.com has entered into and will continue to enter into partnerships and other affiliations with a number of vendors.

Disclosure of personally identifiable information to comply with law.

We will disclose personally identifiable information in order to comply with a court order or subpoena or a request from a law enforcement agency to release information. We will also disclose personally identifiable information when reasonably necessary to protect the safety of our visitors and authorized customers.

How does the site keep personally identifiable information secure?

All of our employees are familiar with our security policy and practices. The personally identifiable information of our visitors and authorized customers is only accessible to a limited number of qualified employees who are given a password in order to gain access to the information. We audit our security systems and processes on a regular basis. Sensitive information, such as credit card numbers or social security numbers, is protected by encryption protocols, in place to protect information sent over the internet. While we take commercially reasonable measures to maintain a secure site, electronic communications and databases are subject to errors, tampering and break-ins, and we cannot guarantee or warrant that such events will not take place and we will not be liable to visitors or authorized customers for any such occurrences.

How can visitors correct any inaccuracies in personally identifiable information?

Visitors and authorized customers may contact us to update personally identifiable information about them or to correct any inaccuracies by emailing us at admin@microdermabrasionadvice.com

Can a visitor delete or deactivate personally identifiable information collected by the site?

We provide visitors and authorized customers with a mechanism to delete/deactivate personally identifiable information from the site's database by contacting admin@microdermabrasionadvice.com. However, because of backups and records of deletions, it may be impossible to delete a visitor's entry without retaining some residual information. An individual who requests to have personally identifiable information deactivated will have this information functionally deleted, and we will not sell, transfer, or use personally identifiable information relating to that individual in any way moving forward.

What happens if the privacy policy changes?

We will let our visitors and authorized customers know about changes to our privacy policy by posting such changes on the site. However, if we are changing our privacy policy in a manner that might cause disclosure of personally identifiable information that a visitor or authorized customer has previously requested not be disclosed, we will contact such visitor or authorized customer to allow such visitor or authorized customer to prevent such disclosure.
