privacy policy
beauty-lasers’ Privacy and Security Policy is intended to protect your privacy and ensure that your personal information is handled in a protected and responsible manner.
Last revised February 10, 2010
All personal information collected and used from the beauty-lasers site will be processed in accordance with the 1998 Data Protection Act.
Disclaimer
beauty-lasers does not store any of your financial information such as your credit or debit card details.
As we use PayPal as our payment processor, we do not store or have access to your financial or Credit Card information. We do not keep your payment information on file. In case you need to reorder, your payment will have to go through PayPal processing once again. As we don’t have your financial information on file, we cannot offer Express Checkout at the moment. This is advantageous to our customers as it provides protection and security.
If a problem arises with your order, we may use your name and email address or phone number to contact you.

The type of information beauty-lasers.com collects about you
beauty-lasers.com collects information that you provide to us or that we learn about you from your use of beauty-lasers.com. We receive and store information you enter on beauty-lasers.com or give to us in any other way. For example, you may provide information to beauty-lasers.com when you register, sign in, search, add items to your shopping cart, participate in a survey, request our e-mail newsletters, or communicate with beauty-lasers.com's Client Services department. As a result of those actions, you might supply us with such information as your name, address, phone number, e-mail address, and personal shopping and product preferences. We also automatically receive and store certain types of information whenever you visit beauty-lasers.com. We might also receive information about you from other sources, such as in providing you special offers that we think will be of interest, and we may add that information to our account information.
How beauty-lasers.com uses information about you
We use information we have collected about you to provide you with the very best health and beauty news, products and services, and shopping experience. We do not sell your personal information to third parties for any reason. We do not disclose your personal information to unaffiliated third parties who may want to offer you their own products and services unless you have requested or authorised us to do so.
We may share your personal information with third parties or affiliates of beauty-lasers.com where it is necessary for us to complete a transaction or do something you have asked us to do.
We may share your personal information to third parties or affiliates of beauty-lasers.com with whom we have contracted to perform services on our behalf. All companies that act on our behalf are contractually obligated to keep the personal information we provide to them confidential and to use the personal information we share only to provide the services we ask them to perform.
We may disclose personal information about our customers as permitted or required by law, such as in connection with a subpoena or similar legal process, or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or bankruptcy, as discussed further below.
We try to provide you with the information you need to make informed, reasonable choices with respect to how beauty-lasers.com uses or shares your information. beauty-lasers.com collects and uses personal information from you in several ways:
Website usage
beauty-lasers.com or its authorised service providers may observe activities, preferences and transactional data (such as your IP address, browser type and operating system) relating to your use of beauty-lasers.com. We may use this collected or logged information in order to provide better service, to facilitate our customers' use of the website, to track usage of the website, and to address security hazards. beauty-lasers.com, or its authorised service providers, may use this information to track aggregate traffic patterns throughout beauty-lasers.com. We may use aggregated, statistical information to describe our customer audience, products, and services, and to develop partnerships with third parties to offer products and services in which we believe our customers will be interested.
Online transactions
We collect information about you when you use our website. To open an account with us, you will need to provide us with certain information, including your name, address, phone number, and e-mail address. If necessary, we will assist you in creating a user ID and a password to protect your account information. At this time, when you request to purchase items in your shopping cart, we will forward your request and basic account information to the e-commerce service provider. When you provide personal financial and other personally identifiable information to the service providers featured through beauty-lasers.com, the sales transaction will occur on the service provider's site and not on beauty-lasers.com. As such, the financial and personally identifiable information you provide in placing your order is controlled by that service provider.
Our security practices
Our internal data security policies restrict access to customers' personal information to authorised employees. Authorised employees may use our customers' personal information for beauty-lasers.com business purposes only. Our employees are bound by beauty-lasers.com policies that require them to maintain the confidentiality of our customers' personal information. Employees who violate these requirements are subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination.
We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that are designed to guard our customers' personal information. For example, for the security of your online visit to beauty-lasers.com, we may make use of firewall barriers, encryption techniques, and/or authentication procedures. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be absolutely secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, beauty-lasers.com cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. In the event of a breach of the confidentiality or security of your personal information, we will notify you as necessary so you can take appropriate protective steps. Unless you indicate otherwise, we may notify you under such circumstances using the e-mail address you provided to us when you registered with beauty-lasers.com.
What are cookies and how does beauty-lasers.com use them?
We may use cookies to collect or log certain information. A cookie is a small piece of information that a website stores on a personal computer and which it can later retrieve. We may use cookies for some administrative purposes, for example, to store our customers' preferences for certain kinds of products or to store a password so that you do not have to input it every time you visit our website. The cookies will not contain information that will enable anyone to contact our customers via telephone, email, or any other means. If our customers are uncomfortable with the use of cookie technology, they can set their browsers to refuse cookies. Certain services, however, could be dependent on cookies and our customers may disable those services by refusing cookies.

Mergers, acquisitions and bankruptcy
If beauty-lasers.com should ever file for bankruptcy or merge with another company, or if beauty-lasers.com should decide to buy another business, or sell or reorganise part or all of beauty-lasers.com's business, beauty-lasers.com may be required to disclose your personal information to prospective or actual purchasers and other parties. It is beauty-lasers.com's practice to obtain appropriate protections for information disclosed in these types of transactions. beauty-lasers.com cannot, however, guarantee that beauty-lasers.com's Privacy and Security Policy will remain unchanged if beauty-lasers.com is sold or merges with another company.
beauty-lasers.com is not for use by children
Children are not eligible to use beauty-lasers.com. We ask that minors (under the age of 18) only use beauty-lasers.com in conjunction with parents or guardians.

If a child under 13 submits information through any part of beauty-lasers.com, and beauty-lasers.com becomes aware that the person submitting the information is a child, we will attempt to delete this information as soon as possible. Because we do not knowingly collect any personal information about children under 13, we do not use or disclose such information to third parties.
