Personal Information Collected

The personal information collected may include your name, mailing or residential address, date of birth, telephone number(s), email address, payment information and other transaction and registration details.

Any permitted handling of personal information under any exemptions under the Act will take priority over this Privacy Policy to the extent of any inconsistency.

 

If you visit this website to read or download information, we will record your server address, domain name, the date and time of your visit and the information downloaded. This information is used for statistical and site development purposes only.

 

Our Use of Cookies

Like many websites, our website may use ‘cookies’ from time to time to help you personalise your online experience. A cookie is a small text file that is placed within the memory of a computer and can be later retrieved by web page servers. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. We use cookies to enhance your interaction and convenience with the website and do not use cookies to record any personal information. Cookies may record non-personal information about your visit, including the date, time, duration of your visit, type of browser and operating system you use, the previous site you visited, your server’s IP address, the pages you access and the information downloaded by you. While this anonymous statistical data may be aggregated and used in broader statistical analysis by us and our web monitoring service provider to improve our services, at no time can we personally identify you as the source of that data.

 

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the webserver that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalise AF Aesthetics pages, or register with AF Aesthetics site or services, a cookie helps AF Aesthetics to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same AF Aesthetics website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the AF Aesthetics features that you customized.

 

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the AF Aesthetics services or websites you visit.

 

Securing Your Personal Information

We take security seriously and we have implemented appropriate physical, electronic and managerial security procedures in order to protect personal information from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction. Access to your personal information is limited to those who specifically need it to conduct their responsibilities.

 

We will take reasonable steps to destroy or permanently de-identify your personal information where it is no longer required (as may be required by law) and to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, disclosure, loss, misuse and alteration. However, we accept no responsibility for any loss, misuse, unauthorised access or disclosure, alteration or destruction of personal information which you submit to us.

 

Credit Card Details

When credit card details are transmitted to other websites, they are protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. Credit Card details are only stored for the processing of payment and will be deleted once payment is processed.

 

Accuracy and Access to Personal Information

We take all reasonable precautions to ensure that the personal information we hold about you is accurate, complete and up-to-date. To assist us to do this, please provide us with the correct information and inform us if your details change. You may update your details at any time by contacting our customer support team.

 

If we deny you access to your personal information, we will provide you with the reason for such denial. We may recover from you our reasonable costs of supplying you with access to this information.

 

Upon request, we will take reasonable steps to let you know, generally, what sort of personal information we hold, for what purposes and how we collect, use and disclose that information.

If you (i) log onto our website with your login credentials from a social networking site (such as Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn) (“ Social Networking Site ”) or (ii) associate your account with your account at a Social Networking Site, we may receive information about you from such Social Networking Site, in accordance with such Social Networking Site’s terms of use and privacy policy (“ SNS Terms ”). We may add this information to the information we have already collected from you via the Service.

This website may contain links to websites which are owned or operated by other parties. You should make your own enquiries as to the privacy policies of these parties. We are not responsible for information on, content of, or the privacy practices of, such websites.

 

Transmission of Your Data

While great care is taken to protect your personal information on our website, unfortunately no data transmission over the Internet is guaranteed to be 100% secure. Accordingly, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you send to us or receive from us online.
