  • SHOPIFY

The Site is hosted on Shopify. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you. Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage, databases and the general Shopify application. Shopify stores your data on a secure server behind a firewall. If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Shopify stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted. All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by the Site and its service providers.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies, so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers. Once you leave the Site or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Service.

  • SOUTH AFRICAN PRIVACY RIGHTS

Under South African law, there exist certain requirements governing an operator of a website or online service that collects personally identifiable information about consumers in South Africa. South African law requires such operators to disclose how the operator responds to web browser "do not track" signals or other mechanisms that provide consumers the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of personally identifiable information about an individual consumer's online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services, if the operator engages in that collection. At this time, we do not track our customers' personal information over time and across third-party websites and, therefore, we are not able to respond to “do not track” requests. South African law also requires such operators to disclose whether third parties may collect personal information about their users' online activities over time and across different sites when the users use the operator's website or service. Third parties that have content or services on the Site (such as a social feature, analytics service, or an advertising network partner) may obtain information about your browsing or usage habits but this information does not include personal information. We do not knowingly permit such third parties to collect any personal information from the Site, for direct marketing purposes or otherwise, unless you directly provide it to us and we provide it to them with your consent.


  • USE OF FACEBOOK PIXEL AND FACEBOOK CONVERSIONS API

We use the “visitor action pixels” from Facebook Inc. (1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA, or if you are a resident of the EU, Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland) (“Facebook”) on our website.

This allows your behavior to be tracked after you have been redirected to our website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This enables us to measure the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes. The data collected in this way is anonymous to us, and we do not see the personal data of individual users. 

We also use Facebook’s Conversions API. Data is shared using your web browser and from Shopify’s servers, and is sent directly to Facebook’s servers. Data sent from server to server cannot be blocked by browser-based ad blockers. Your personal information will be used to match users on Facebook’s network. The information collected using this setting includes your name, location, email address, and phone number, as well as your browsing behavior on our online store. Anasa Skin uses this information for its legitimate interests to measure customer actions, improve the accuracy of information sent for targeting, measurement, and optimization, and for more control over data sharing.  You agree that Anasa Skin can collect this data through the Facebook Conversions API platform for these purposes.

The data described under this section is also stored and processed by Facebook.  Facebook may link this information to your Facebook account and also use it for its own promotional purposes, in accordance with Facebook’s Data Usage Policy, located at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy.  You can allow Facebook and its partners to place ads on and off Facebook.  Facebook may use cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to collect or receive information from this website and your browsing activities elsewhere on the internet.

The legal basis for this use is Article 6, paragraph 1, sentence 1, letter f of the GDPR.  You can object to the collection of your data by Facebook pixel, or to the use of your data for the purpose of displaying Facebook ads by contacting the following address:  https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads.

Facebook is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacyshield) and thus guarantees compliance with European data protection legislation.

You may object to the use of cookies for measuring range and advertising purposes via the Network Advertising Initiative’s deactivation page (https://optout.networkadvertising.org) and additionally via the U.S. website (https://www.aboutads.info/choices) or the European website (https://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices).  Note, however, that the Facebook Conversions API does not use cookies, and so you must opt out directly with Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads.

 

  • INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFER 

We may transfer information that we collect about you, including personal information, to affiliated entities, or to other third parties (as provided herein) across borders and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world. If you are located in the European Union or other regions with laws governing data collection and use that may differ from laws of South Africa and state law, please note that you are transferring information, including personal information, to a country and jurisdiction that does not have the same data protection laws as your jurisdiction, and you consent to the transfer of information to South Africa and the use and disclosure of information about you, including personal information, as described in this Privacy Policy.


  • CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We may change our Privacy Policy from time to time at our discretion and will post any such changes on the Site. At the time of any change, we will change the date of the Privacy Policy at the bottom of this Privacy Policy.

We encourage you to check our Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Your continued use of the Site following the posting of changes to our Privacy Policy will mean you accept those changes and they will be binding on you.


  • IMPACT OF SALE OR MERGER

In such a transaction, as the owner of your information, we may disclose or sell the information as an asset of Anasa Skin in conjunction with the sale of Anasa Skin or the sale of a portion of our assets to a third-party. While we will endeavor to require the successor company to maintain this Privacy Policy, we cannot guarantee that this Privacy Policy will remain in effect.

Use of the Site signifies your consent to this Privacy Policy, including the collection and use of information by Anasa Skin, as described herein, and also signifies your agreement to the Terms of Service.
