Interest-Based Advertising:
We engage in interest-based advertising to deliver online, relevant advertising to you. We also permit third-party online advertising networks, social media companies, and other third-party services to collect information about your use of the Platform over time so that they may display advertisements tailored to you both on the Platform and on third-party online services and across the devices you may use.
Typically, though not always, the information used for interest-based advertising is collected through cookies or other similar tracking technologies. We may also provide certain identifiers (such as an email address or user ID) or hashed data to our third-party advertising partners to help identify you across devices or serve you relevant advertisements on social media platforms you may use. In addition to serving interest-based advertisements, our third-party partners may use personal information to deliver certain advertising-related services, such as reporting, attribution, analytics, and market research.
Some web browsers, websites/platforms, and mobile devices allow you to exercise certain choices with respect to interest-based advertising, as described below.
You will need to opt out separately on all of your browsers and devices, as each opt-out will apply only to the specific browser or device from which you opt out. If you delete or reset your cookies or mobile identifiers, change browsers, or use a different device, any opt-out cookie or tool may no longer work and you will have to opt out again. Even if you choose to opt out of receiving interest-based advertising, you may still receive advertising, but the advertisements may be less relevant.
Some of our partners may provide you with additional choices with respect to interest-based advertising. For example, certain social media platforms allow you to control your advertising preferences directly through their services. Please review the privacy notices of the third-party services you use for more information.
Google Analytics and Advertising:
We use Google Analytics to better understand how users interact with the Platform. We may also utilize certain forms of display advertising and other advanced features through Google Analytics, such as Remarketing with Google Analytics, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, the DoubleClick Campaign Manager Integration, and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting. These features enable us to use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick or Google Dynamic Remarketing advertising cookie) together to inform, optimize, and display advertisements based on your past visits to the Platform. You may control your advertising preferences or opt out of certain Google advertising products by visiting the Google Ads Preferences Manager, currently available at: https://google.com/ads/preferences or by visiting the NAI opt-out tool linked to above.
Our Do Not Track Policy:
- Some browsers have “do not track” features that allow you to tell a website not to track you. These features are not all uniform. We do not currently respond to those signals. If you block or reject cookies, not all of the tracking described here will stop.
- Options you select are browser and device specific.
SECURITY
The Internet is not 100% secure. Like all businesses, we cannot guarantee the security of the personal information you provide to us via the Platform. We have, however, taken certain steps designed to reduce the risk that the personal information you provide us will be subject to loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. We encourage you to use caution when using the Internet. A user id and a password are needed to access certain areas of the Platform. It is your responsibility to protect your username and password.
SKIN ANALYSIS PRIVACY STATEMENT
We pride ourselves in helping our customers find the right solutions for their skin. In furtherance of this goal, we offer our customers a free skin analysis designed to provide a personal skin assessment to help each customer discover products that target their most prominent skin concerns.
To use this free skin analysis, we ask customers to provide us with a real-time selfie image of their face. We use a combination of machine learning tools and statistical algorithms to perform facial analysis to generate a detailed report of the customer’s facial geometry and skin-related characteristics. In connection with this facial analysis, we disclose customer information, including the customer’s selfie image, to our trusted third-party service providers who process this data strictly in accordance with our contractual agreements.
We analyze these detailed facial reports to provide each customer a customized product recommendation and skincare regimen designed to target their most prominent skin concerns. We also use and process the information to further develop future product and skincare recommendations as well as to improve the face and skin mapping tools, technologies and services. For clarity, we do not use this face-related data for purposes of recognizing or identifying an individual customer.
We automatically delete and permanently destroy the facial geometry data we receive from our third-party service providers and any other information used to represent a customer’s detailed facial geometry promptly after it is used for the purposes of providing that customer their personalized skincare recommendations, generally within a short period of time after it is collected. However, we continue to retain the customer’s selfie image and the results of each customer’s personal skin assessment for up to three years from the date of collection for purposes of quality control and the development and improvement of our Skin Analysis and product recommendations.
Because we do not retain the facial geometry data after it is used for the purposes of providing each customer with their personalized skincare recommendations, we will repeat the facial analysis described above each time a customer requests to view their previously provided skincare recommendations.
LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
Our Platform may contain links to other third-party sites, plug-ins, applications or other online services. If you click on a link to a third-party site or other online service, you will be taken to a site or other online service we do not control and that is not governed by this Notice. We are not responsible for the privacy practices used by third-party sites and other online services. We suggest that you read the privacy policies of those sites and other online services carefully.
REVISIONS TO THIS PRIVACY NOTICE
We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change, modify, add, remove, or otherwise revise portions of this policy at any time. When we do, we will post the change(s) on our Services. Your continued use of our products and Services following the posting of changes to these terms means you accept these changes. If we change this policy in a material or substantive way, we will provide appropriate notice to you.
HOW TO CONTACT US
If you have any questions, comments or concerns with respect to our privacy practices or this Policy, or wish to update your information, please feel free to contact us at hotline@dermalogica.com.my or by telephone at +603 7809 6623 (Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM).
