By visiting the Company’s website and the domain name www.melrummelhoffbeauty.com, and any other linked pages, features, content, or mobile application services offered from time to time by the Company in connection therewith (collectively, the “Website”), or using any of our services, you acknowledge that you accept the practices and policies outlined in this Privacy Policy.
The Privacy Policy covers the Company’s treatment of personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) that the Company gathers when you are accessing the Company’s Website and when you use Company services.
Your Personal Information We Collect
The information we gather from customers enables us to personalize and improve our services, and to allow our users to set up a user profile and make purchases via the Website. In general, we use the personal information we collect from you to fulfill your order, send you an order confirmation, send you requested product or service information, respond to customer service requests, improve our Website and marketing efforts, display content based upon your interests and administer your account.
When you register or log in, you supply your email address and a password, or your Facebook or Google account. This allows us to provide you access to your account every time you visit the Website. Before completing your first purchase, we also ask you for your name, phone number, email address, billing and shipping addresses. This information, along with your credit or debit card number or payment method information, is necessary to fulfill your order. This information may be disclosed to specific members of our staff and to select third parties (such as our payment processor and party or parties shipping products you have ordered) involved in the completion of your transaction and delivery of your order. You can choose not to provide us with certain information, but then you may not be able to take advantage of many of our special features, and you may not be able to complete a purchase through the Website.
When you receive an e-mail from us, clicking on it or opening it shall constitute an affirmative opt-in to receive further emails from us. However, you can always opt-out for any reason at any time by following the instructions set forth below.
We may use your email address to notify you about deals offered by the Company (such as daily deals, special events or information, generally) or to inform you of your order placement, order status, and/or shipping information if you have opted-in. Emails are sent only to users who have chosen to receive them (opted-in) or who have made a purchase on the Website. At any time, you can notify us to opt-out from receiving these emails (see “Opt-Out” Section below). In addition, we keep a record of your past purchases, returns, and credits. We may also ask you for information regarding your personal preferences and demographics to help us better meet your needs and improve the overall shopping experience on the Website.
We may also display personal testimonials of satisfied customers on our Website and/or our social media accounts in addition to other endorsements. With your consent we may post your testimonial along with your name. If you wish to update or delete your testimonial, you can contact us using the information below.
The Website is not intended for individuals under the age of 18. Additionally, if we learn that a user is under 18 years of age, we will promptly delete any Personal Information we have collected about that user.
Automatically Collected Information
Upon engaging the Website or Company services, the Company automatically receives and records information on our server logs from your browser, including your IP address, the type of browser being used, cookie information, the page you requested, duration of activity on our site, and any items you may purchase. This information may be used to customize the content you see on our Website or to communicate with you about special offers. These statistics do not identify you personally, but provide us with information regarding the type of user who is accessing our Website and certain browsing activities of that user. We may make extensive use of this data at an aggregated level in order to understand how our Website is being used.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
Like most other transactional websites, we use “cookies” to improve your shopping experience and to save you time. Cookies are little tags that are placed onto your computer. We assign a cookie to your computer when you first visit us in order to enable us to recognize you each time you return. Cookies allow us to customize our Website to your individual preferences in order to create a more personalized shopping experience. Please note that the cookies we use for our Website or email campaigns do not store personally identifiable information about your finances. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” directory. If you reject cookies, you may still use our Website, but your ability to use some areas of our Website, such as the shopping cart, will be limited.
When we partner with a third party ad network to either display advertising on our Website or to manage our advertising on other sites, our ad network partners use cookies and Web Beacons to collect non-personally identifiable information about your activities on the Website and other sites to provide you with targeted advertising based upon your interests. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We do not tie the information gathered by clear gifs to our customers’ personally identifiable information.
The use of tracking technologies by our service providers, technology partners, or other third party assets (such as social media) on the Website is not covered by this Privacy Policy. These third parties may use cookies, clear gifs, images, and scripts to help them better manage their content on our Website. We do not have access to or control over these technologies. We do not tie the information gathered to our customers’ or users’ personally identifiable information.
Sharing of Personal Information
We neither rent nor sell your Personal Information to anyone. We share your Personal Information only in instances as described in this Privacy Policy.
We employ other companies and people to perform tasks on our behalf and need to share your information with them to provide products or services to you, such as shipping your order, processing a payment, or offering customer service. Unless we tell you differently, the Company’s agents do not have any right to use Personal Information we share with them beyond what is necessary to assist us.
We restrict access to your Personal Information to those employees who need to know that information to provide products or services to you. At all times, we take the utmost care to protect your Personal Information.
The Company may be forced to disclose information in order to comply with a subpoena, court order, administrative, or governmental order, or any other requirement of law, or when the Company, in its sole discretion, deems it necessary in order to protect its rights or the rights of others, to prevent harm to persons or property, to fight fraud and credit risk, or to enforce or apply the Company’s Website Terms & Conditions.
If the Company is involved in a merger, acquisition or sale of all or a portion of its assets, you will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our Website of any change in ownership or uses of your Personal Information, as well as any choices you may have regarding your Personal Information.
Secure Shopping for All Mel Rummelhoff Beauty Customers
The Company endeavors to protect user information to ensure that user account information is kept private. Your Company account Personal Information is protected by a password (if you sign up with your Facebook or Google account, such account’s password) for your privacy and security. You need to prevent unauthorized access to your account and Personal Information by selecting and protecting your password appropriately and limiting access to your computer and browser by signing off after you have finished accessing your account.
When the Company’s order form asks users to enter Personal Information such as a credit or debit card number, that information is encrypted with industry-standard Secure Socket Layers (“SSL”) encryption to keep your online order safe and secure. The Company also maintains physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect your Personal Information. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, however. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on our Website, you can contact us at info@melrummelhoffbeauty.com.
