     • We also may share aggregated and anonymized information that does not specifically identify you or any individual user of our Services.

6. Cookies and other similar technologies

   • Digital cookies and similar technologies help us improve our Services, but they also help us make our Services more convenient for you to use by doing things like recognizing when you’ve signed in and analyzing how you use our Services so we can make them more useful to you, which provides you with a more personalized experience.

     When you interact with our Services, or open emails we send you, we obtain certain information using automated technologies, such as cookies, web server logs, web beacons and other technologies. A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon,” also known as an internet tag, pixel tag, or clear GIF, is a tiny graphic image that may be used in our websites or emails.

     We use these automated technologies to collect your device information, internet activity information, and inferences as described earlier in this Privacy Policy. These technologies help us to:

     • Remember your information so you do not have to re-enter it;
     • Track and understand how you use and interact with our online services and emails;
     • Tailor our Services to your preferences;
     • Measure how useful and effective our services and communications are to you; and
     • Otherwise manage and enhance our Services.

   • We set some of these automated technologies ourselves, but others are set by third parties who deliver services on our behalf. For example, we may use other companies’ web analytics services, which use automated technologies to help us evaluate how customers use our websites. Some of these technologies may also be set by third parties that help us advertise our Services to you as informed by your interests, based on information collected from your activity on the internet, including but not limited to, browsing or purchasing products on or through our websites or on third party websites, or your activity on mobile sites and applications. This advertising approach is called interest-based advertising or “targeted advertising.”

     Your browser can alert you when cookies are placed on your device, and how you can stop or disable them via your browser settings. More information on how to manage these settings on common browsers and devices are below.

     • Manage cookie settings in Chrome and Chrome Android and Chrome iOS
     • Manage cookie settings in Firefox
     • Manage cookie settings in Internet Explorer
     • Manage cookie settings in Microsoft Edge
     • Manage cookie settings in Safari and Safari iOS

7. Third-party advertising and analytics

   • We use third-party service providers to help us analyze our website, track metrics, and advertise to you. These service providers have their own policies that you should be aware of.

     We may use third-party analytics service providers to help us with our online services, such as but not limited to Google Analytics or Facebook. The analytics providers that administer these services use technologies such as cookies, web beacons, and web server logs to help us analyze how you use our online services.

8. How long we keep your information

   • Even after you deactivate your Beauty Books account, we may retain copies of information about you and any transactions or Services you may have used for a period of time that is consistent with applicable law, applicable statute of limitations, or as we believe is reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, to detect or prevent fraud, to collect fees owed, to resolve disputes, to address problems with various stakeholders.

9. Location information

   • In order to provide certain Services, we may request access to location information, including precise geolocation information collected from your device. If you do not consent to the collection of this information, certain Services will not function properly, and you will not be able to use those Services. You can stop our collection of location information at any time by changing the preferences on your device. If you do so, some of our software may no longer function at all or may no longer function properly.

10. Promotional communications

    • You can opt out of receiving promotional messages from us by following the instructions in those messages, or by changing your notification settings by logging into your Beauty Books account. You may only opt out of text messages from us by replying STOP. Opting out of receiving communications may impact your use of the Services. If you decide to opt out, we will still send you non-promotional (i.e., transactional) communications which are required for the operation of your Beauty Books account, such as digital receipts and messages about your account or our ongoing business relations.

      Due to privacy concerns and our inability to verify individual requests and contact information, we are unable to honor “opt out” requests made by a third party on your behalf. For removal from mailing lists, it may take up to 20 business days to process your request and, due to the fact that mailings are planned long in advance, 60 days to process your postal mail request.

11. Children’s privacy

    • We do not permit the use of this website by minors under the age of 14. A child’s parent or guardian should contact us if we have inadvertently collected information about that child without the parent or guardian’s authorization, so that we may delete such information from our files.

12. Changes to this privacy policy

    • We update this Privacy Policy when we believe it is necessary to protect our customers and to comply with a changing regulatory environment. We recommend that you check this Privacy Policy when you visit our website to be sure that you are aware of and understand our current policies. If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, or in how we use or collect your personal information, we will prominently post a link to such changes at least 10 days prior to implementing the change. Your continued use of our website and/or Services will constitute acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. If we make retroactive changes to the Privacy Policy, we will prominently post a link to such changes and we will email affected users at least 10 days prior to implementing the change.
