What our Privacy Policy Covers
This Privacy Policy covers any personal information that Hymed Skin Care obtains from you when you use services or features on the sites we own and control, including www.hymedskincare.com (the “Sites”). We may add additional Sites from time to time as we expand our skin care offerings and this policy will govern those new Sites when added. You may be accessing our Sites from a computer or mobile phone device (through an iPhone application, for example) and this policy governs your use of our Sites regardless of the means of access. This policy does not cover the privacy practices of Third-Party Sites, or of companies that Hymed Skin Care does not own or control, or the actions of people that Hymed Skin Care does not employ or manage. You should check the privacy policies of those third parties when providing personally identifiable information through Third Party Sites. Our terms of use for the Sites give you more information about how we can interact with you via Third Party Sites. Our Privacy Policy may change in the future. We invite you to check back periodically to see if we have made any changes. If we make any material changes, we will post a notice on our home page and will obtain your consent if the material changes affect the way we use the personally identifiable information we have already collected from you. By using the Sites, you agree to the terms of our Privacy Policy. If you do not like the terms of our Privacy Policy, you should not use our Sites. For more information about the terms of use for this site, please visit our legal page.
When Personal Information is Collected
Hymed Skin Care will ask you for information, including some personal information if you use one of several services:
Becoming a registered user.
In order to register, you need to share some personal information, such as your name and e-mail address. You do not have to be a registered user to visit the Sites. But you will have to register if you want to place orders or make full use of our services. Once you register, you will have an account with Hymed Skin Care and a password to access that account. You may never use another person’s account without permission and you may not use anyone else’s password. You should keep your registration current and complete. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password. Please also let us know if there is any unauthorized use of your account or password. We recommend that you always log out from your account at the end of a session with us to prevent other people from accessing your account without your permission.
Making a purchase
When you buy something on hymedskincare.com, you have to supply a billing address, phone number, shipping address, and credit card information. By making a purchase, you become a registered user of hymedskincare.com. You can choose to store information needed to make a purchase, such as your credit card number, shipping and billing addresses in the My Account page. If you change your mind about storing this information, you can amend or delete it by going to the relevant area of the My Account page and following the instructions. You can access this section using your registration password.
Sweepstakes, Contests and Surveys. If you enter a sweepstakes or contest, or answer a survey, you will become a registered user (if you aren’t one already). We may also ask you for some demographic information, such as your age. If you choose not to answer, you probably will not be able to participate in the sweepstakes, contest or survey.
Our interactive services
We have a number of ways to hear your opinions and feedback. We like to answer your questions. We may offer other interactive services in the future and this Privacy Policy will govern your use of those services. If you want to use any of these interactive services, you will become a registered user (if you aren’t already one) and any personal information you submit will become part of your profile, as maintained by Hymed Skin Care. Please review our terms of use for the Sites because they explain the way you can participate in our interactive services in more detail.
Our Ratings & Reviews services
When you use the Ratings & Reviews service you will become a registered user (if you aren’t already one) and any personal information you submit will become part of your profile, as maintained by Hymed Skin Care.
Public Information
Please note that if you choose to share information about yourself in an open format, such as through a Third-Party Site like Facebook or Twitter or in the user- generated content elements of our own Sites, we consider that information to be public information – and not personal information.
How Hymed Skin care Protects Your Information
We realize that our customers trust us to protect their personal information. We take that task seriously. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your personal information. For example:
We use industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (“SSL”) authentication to guarantee the confidentiality of online transactions made on our site. SSL authentication and encryption of the information that you send to us over the Internet help protect your online transaction information from third party interception.
We never display your full credit card number once it has been entered. We will only reveal the last four digits of your credit card for verification purposes • We urge you to protect your own privacy. We recommend that you do not share your password with anyone or share your password in an unsolicited phone call or e-mail.
Unfortunately, despite all of our efforts, there is always a risk that third parties may unlawfully intercept transmissions. For example, we cannot ensure the security of your data during transmission to us or the security of your data on an iPhone (or other telephone device that can use iPhone applications) or on your Twitter page or on another computer. This reality is true of all Internet or data transmission use. As a result, we cannot ensure the security of any information you transmit, and you transmit all information at your own risk.
How Hymed Skin care Uses Your Personal Information
We use e-mail addresses to send out newsletters and other announcements with information about Hymed Skin Care’s new products, gifts and special features. When you register, you can choose not to receive these announcements by opting-out of delivery. If you receive an e-mail and want to avoid further messages, look at the end of the e-mail for instructions on how to remove yourself from the mailing list. You can also edit your e-mail preferences at Hymed Skin Care’s My Account.
Hymed Skin Care collects personal information primarily to make our services more rewarding for you to use. We usually use this information for internal purposes, such as studying our customers’ preferences. We may also use your information to contact you for account and promotional purposes. In the event that another company buys the assets or stock of Hymed Skin Care, your personal information may then belong to another entity.

Cookies, Pixel Tags and Tracking
Hymed Skin Care wants to give you the best possible experience when you visit hymedskincare.com and our other Sites. We like to constantly update and improve the features on our Sites, we like to personalize your browsing and shopping experience and we like to recognize you when you return to hymedskincare.com. We have a variety of ways of doing this.
We use pixel tags (also called web beacons or “clear” gifs) on our Sites. They help us analyze what our clients like to do on our Sites and the effectiveness of our features and advertising. They can also help us customize your browsing and shopping experience. We may use information collected through pixel tags or tracked links in combination with your personally identifiable information. We may also combine personally identifiable information you provide to Hymed Skin Care with other personal information (such as purchase history and demographic information). We often work with other companies to help us track, collect and analyze this information but they are prohibited from using this information for any other purpose.
Hymed Skin Care also works with advertising partners (like Google) that use cookies, pixel tags and other tracking technologies to serve advertisements on behalf of their retail clients, including Hymed Skin Care, across the Internet, including to you after you have visited our Sites. These advertising partners engage in remarketing, online behavioral advertising and ad delivery and reporting. With respect to Hymed Skin Care, these advertising partners may collect anonymous information about your browser as it makes visits to websites across the Internet (including our Sites) and your interaction with our advertising and email communications. This anonymous information may also be used to tailor advertising for you and others elsewhere on the Internet. Hymed Skin Care will have access to the information collected by these advertising partners and can then use it in combination with personally identifiable information provided by you to Hymed Skin Care to enhance your experience on our Sites. We will not share that personally identifiable information with these advertising partners. If you would like more information about this practice or would like to know your choices about not having your information used by these companies, please visit https://www.networkadvertising.org/ managing/opt_out.asp.

By making a purchase, you become a registered user of hymedskincare.com. You can choose to store information needed to make a purchase, such as your credit card number, shipping and billing addresses in the My Account page.

Children Under 13
We comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998. If you are under the age of 13, you can look at our Sites, but you cannot make a purchase. You also cannot become a registered user or use any service on our Sites that asks for personal information. Our Sites are not designed for children. We do not wish to collect personal information from children under 13. This policy is designed to protect children. Federal law requires us to take special steps to safeguard children’s privacy. For more information about this federal law and about children’s privacy, click here. If you register with us and we discover that you are under 13, we will delete your registration. We will send you a message if we do this. If you are under 13 and want to make a purchase, please ask a parent to place the order for you.
Social Commerce and Other Third Parties
We work with trusted third parties, including social network sites like Facebook, and with application developers who specialize in social commerce, so we can connect to your social networks. Other social networks we use include Twitter, Delicious and Digg. All of these companies operate Third-Party Sites. We provide access to our Sites by third parties and business partners, so we can generate interest in our products among members of your social networks and to allow you to share product interests with friends in your network. The use of any features made available to you on our Sites by a third party may result in information being collected or shared about you by us or by the third party. Information collected or shared through any such third-party features is considered “public information” by us because the Third-Party Sites made it publicly available. If you do not want us to be able to access information about you from Third-Party Sites, you must instruct Third-Party Sites not to share the information. We cannot control how your data is collected, stored, used or shared by Third-Party Sites or to whom it is disclosed. Please be sure to review the privacy policies and privacy settings on your social networking sites to make sure you understand the information they are sharing. If you do not want a Third-Party Site to share information about you, you must contact that site and determine whether it gives you the opportunity to opt out of sharing such information. Hymed Skin Care is not responsible for how these third parties may use information collected from or about you. However, we do identify any areas on our Sites where third parties share information about you. Facebook’s “Like” feature is a good example. (Other third parties have or may have similar ways for you to express positive opinions about our products – now or in the future.) We have agreed to allow Facebook’s “Like” feature to run alongside images of our products, so you can “like” one of our products and to see how many other Facebook users “like” each of our products. You should know that Facebook may collect or register the fact that you “like” a product and may post that information to your “News Feed” on Facebook and to your Facebook profile’s “Wall” and “Info” pages. So, the fact that you “like” one or more of our products may be made known to members of your Facebook network. This would be true for your friends too. If they “like” one of our products, you will see it on his or her News Feed, Wall or Info pages. Finally, by “liking” one of our products, you consent to the display of that information by us. If you do not wish this to happen, you should not click that you “like” a product and you should review your privacy settings on Facebook (or similar Third-Party Site). Note that we are not obligated to display someone’s name, profile photo or other “public” Facebook profile information on our website even if that Facebook user “likes” one of our products. We reserve the right to remove the information of any person which we deem to be inconsistent with our ideals or otherwise inappropriate for public association with our company. We may remove from our Sites, in our sole discretion, any product offering or any photo or product description relating thereto. We may decide to operate a Friends Store through Facebook (or comparable store on another Third-Party Site) in the future. If we operate a Friends Store, and you “connect” with Facebook (using Facebook Connect or other connecting application) to the Friends Store on the Sites, you will be able to browse to discover which products are “liked” by your Facebook friends and by the larger Facebook community. If you are a Facebook user and you say that you “like” a product on our Sites or that you “like” Hymed Skin Care, Hymed Skin Care may then request that Facebook make your name, Facebook photo and other public profile information under the terms of Facebook’s privacy policy available to the Friends Store. This information may then be displayed alongside the product in the Friends Store on our Sites to indicate that you “like” the product. The actual information that may be displayed in the Friends Store will vary depending on what information is made publicly available on Facebook.com. Hymed Skin Care will collect and keep your Facebook profile identification only as long as is needed to operate the Friends Store.
