Information we Collect
We may collect both “Non-Personal Information” and “Personal Information” about you. “Non-Personal Information” includes information that cannot be used to personally identify you, such as anonymous usage data, general demographic information we may collect, referring/exit pages and URLs, platform types, preferences you submit and preferences that are generated based on the data you submit and number of clicks. “Personal Information” includes information that can be used to personally identify you, such as your name, address and email address.

We track this information using cookies, or small text files which include an anonymous unique identifier.

Data usage and sharing
Personal Information:
In general, we do not sell, trade, rent or otherwise share your Personal Information with third parties without your consent. We may share your Personal Information with vendors and other third-party providers who are performing services for the Company. In general, the vendors and third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide for the Company. For example, when you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery, or return a purchase, you consent to our collecting and using such personal information for that specific purpose, including by transmitting such information to our vendors (and their service providers) performing these services for the Company.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment processors, have their own privacy policies in respect of the information that we are required to provide to them in order to use their services. For these third-party service providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so that you can understand the manner in which your Personal Information will be handled by such providers.
In addition, we may disclose your Personal Information if required to do so by law or if you violate our Terms of Use.
Non-Personal Information:
In general, we use Non-Personal Information to help us improve the Service and customize the user experience. We also aggregate Non-Personal Information in order to track trends and analyze use patterns of the Service. This Privacy Policy does not limit in any way our use or disclosure of Non-Personal Information and we reserve the right to use and disclose such Non-Personal Information to our partners, advertisers and other third parties at our sole discretion.
How and why do we use personal data?

- To process your consultation/treatment requests. Sometimes, we will need to share your details with a third party who is providing a service (such as the clinic in which we are performing your consultation, or the pharmacy from which we are ordering a prescribed treatment). Information is held solely for the purpose of your health and wellbeing and will only be shared with practitioners and agencies involved in your treatment and care.

- The organisation actively implements and regularly audits security measures, to ensure your information is safe
Who might we share your personal data with?
As mentioned above, it is sometimes necessary to share your personal data with trusted third parties. This is never for marketing purposes and we only provide the information they need to perform their specific services.
Examples of the ways in which we work with third parties are:
- Providing your name to the clinic reception in which we are operating, such that they can greet you for your appointment
- Providing a prescription to the pharmacy from which we order our products (Wigmore Medical and Health Xchange) which will require your name, date of birth and address
- Reporting adverse events to the manufacturers of the products we use, or the Aesthetics Complications Expert (ACE) Group
- For fraud management, we may share information about fraudulent or potentially fraudulent activity, which may include sharing data about individuals with law enforcement bodies.
- We may also be required to disclose your personal data to the police or other enforcement, regulatory or Government body, in your country of origin or elsewhere, upon a valid request to do so. These requests are assessed on a case-by-case basis
