provided by our Affiliates and/or Marketing Partners for the same purposes.

How We Use Your Information
We generally use your information only to operate the site and make your experience more
efficient, effective and enjoyable.
As a general practice, we do not sell, rent or otherwise give user submitted information to any
other party, except in limited circumstances such as compliance with law or with your
permission, as noted below. Thus, we would not sell your name, email address or other
personal information to mass marketers. If skinX is acquired or becomes part of another
organization, we retain the right to transfer all exclusive control over that data to our new
operating entity.
Most uses we make of your information are for site administration of your use of the site, such
as processing and tracking of orders, diagnosing problems with our server, identification,
security and billing. We may also use this information to contact you for operational purposes,
such as notifying you of new products and promos.
We sometimes share aggregated data with some of our partners and for opinion and market
research. However, none of this information identifies you in any way without your consent. For
example, we may share data that shows that a certain percentage of our users buy a certain
product, but there would be no identification of specific users.
There are circumstances where we may need to provide individual information to others. For
example, we may disclose information if we, in good faith believe, it is necessary to identify,
contact or bring legal action against someone who is violating the terms and conditions of the
Website, breaking the law, causing injury to or interference with others or otherwise violating the
rights of others. We may also disclose information to the extent we believe in good faith it is
required by law or for administrative and other purposes we deem necessary to maintain,
service and improve our products and service. In all such circumstances, we will limit what
information we disclose to the extent we believe it to be appropriate.
We offer some services in connection with other websites. Personal information that you provide
to those sites may be sent to Us in order to deliver these services. We process such information
in accordance with this privacy policy.
We may also use third-party payment service providers (PSP), offering payment transaction
services to Us in order to sell a product or service through the website. You explicitly consent
that We may provide personal information collected from you to a PSP for the purpose of
offering payment transaction service whenever you buy something from the website and that
such PSP may use such data for (statistical) analysis of payment transactions. We shall be
allowed to notify a PSP regarding a user that engages in (or who a party believes has engaged
in) any activity that is illegal, that violates any person’s rights or that led to such user’s
suspension or termination of use of the Website.
Third-Party Service Providers
The Service of the website may be used in conjunction with services provided through a variety
of third parties. We may share personal information with these third parties to facilitate joint
services that you request where such services are provided by Us and a third party. These third
parties will use your personal information only for the purpose of providing such joint service.
