Information We Collect
We collect personal and non-personal in the course of the User using our Sites. The personal information that we collect or you provide via the Sites is collected pursuant to our legitimate business purpose of providing you, the User, with high quality products and services. Such personal information includes your name, salon, phone number, email address, state-issued cosmetology license number, shipping address, billing address, log-in information, IP address, and any other personal information that may be requested or that you may provide.
Other personal information may be requested of the user in order to facilitate other legitimate business purposes such as providing product information, services, or subscribing to marketing or other support materials or services. We may also use the personal information provided by the User to contact the User about the product and services that the User may have expressed interest in, subject to the User providing the proper consent to be contacted in accordance with applicable laws. In order to purchase a product or service from us, we will request certain information from the User, which will be used for contract performance purposes, including contact information and financial information (such as credit card number, billing address, expiration date, etc.).
Financial information collected from the User is used only to bill the User for the products and services that the User has purchased. If we collect credit card information from the User, we only use this information for payment processing and fraud prevention. Credit card information and other similar sensitive personal data are not used for any other purpose by us without the User’s express consent. We do not retain your credit card information after processing a payment unless the User grants us permission to retain your credit card information for future purposes, such as by providing us with a Credit Card Authorization Form or other permission for future purposes.
The non-personal information that we may collect via the Sites includes location data, time of access to the Sites, how the User accessed the Sites (e.g., Google or other search engine), the method by which the User accessed the Sites (e.g., mobile phone or desktop), operating system information, internet browser information (e.g., Safari, Internet Explorer, etc.), which content the User interacted with on the Sites, time spent on the Sites or parts of the Sites, and search words used to find the Sites, or other non-personal information. The non-personal information is not used by us to personally identify the User and is not readily usable for that purpose. We aggregate this information for reporting about the Sites to analyze trends, diagnose problems with our server, administer the Website, to track User movement and use, and to gather broad demographic information. In addition, if you communicate with us regarding the Sites or any of our services or products, we collect any information that you provide to us during the course of our communication. We may use analytic and reporting technologies to record information such as Internet domain and host names, Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser software, operating system types, click patterns, and the dates and times that the Sites and our services are accessed by you. We may contract with a third party to help us manage, monitor and optimize our Sites and measure the effectiveness of our advertising, communications and use of the Sites. We may use web beacons, cookies, or other tracking systems (described below) for this purpose. We hold the information that we collect indefinitely, unless we are requested by the User to alter or delete the information.
We may also receive personal and non-personal information about you from third party sources. For example, we may receive personal information through the referral program, or we may receive personal information if a customer wants to ship product to another person who was not purchased goods from us previously.
Our Use of Information for Internal Purposes
We use the User’s information primarily for our own internal purposes, such as providing, maintaining, evaluating, and improving our Sites and the products and services we offer and to provide the User with requested information related to our products, education, seminars, events, and other information that the User may request from time to time. Our collection of the User’s salon and cosmetology license number ensures that we are providing information available only to industry professionals. We use the non-personal information we collect to track the use of the Sites and to assist us in providing, maintaining, evaluating, and improving our Sites and the services and products we offer and sell.
Our Disclosure of Personal Information to Third Parties and Affiliates

We may also use third party contractors to help us measure the effectiveness of our advertising and communications. We require commercially reasonable covenants of confidentiality and non-disclosure from third parties to whom we provide access to your personal information. We require such parties to protect the User’s information to the same degree that we protect such information and as required under applicable law, and we prohibit them from using or disclosing the User’s personal information except for the purpose of providing services or to comply with applicable law. We intend to take commercially reasonable steps to enforce such non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements if and when we become aware of any violations. Further, we provide IDC related companies (ex. subsidiaries, parent, or sister companies) access to customer information in order to better provide goods and services to the Customer.
We may disclose your personal information to protect or enforce our legal rights and policies, to protect or enforce the legal rights of a third party, or as we in good faith believe we are required to do so by law (e.g., to comply with a subpoena or court order).

Our Use of Cookies or Other Storage Technologies

However, if you disable cookies, you may not be able to access the Sites certain parts of the Sites. Some browsers have a “Do Not Track” feature that allows you to tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. These browser features are not uniform, so we are not currently set up to respond to those signals.
How We Protect Your Personal Information
Protecting the security of our User’s personal information is very important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we do not guarantee absolute security. We are not responsible for the unauthorized acts of others and we assume no liability for any disclosure of information due to errors in transmission, unauthorized third party access (such as through hacking) or other acts of third parties, or acts or omissions beyond our reasonable control.
