In the course of our business and providing our Services to you, we may collect your Personal Information in the following circumstances:

  • Directly from you: From time to time we may collect your information (such as when you purchase or order a product, subscribe to a service, register to receive newsletter, or to participate in contests, sweepstakes or promotions, etc.), directly from you, when you provide certain contact information about yourself, such as your name, shipping/billing address, telephone number, email address, social media user name, credit card information, birth date, gender, occupation, personal interests, and other information. We may also maintain a record of your product purchases.

    Whether or not you provide such information is completely your own choice. But if you choose not to provide the information we request, you may be unable to purchase products, or access certain services, offers and content on our Websites or from our Services. In addition, we may need to contact you via phone, email or mail to address questions or issues specific to your order, entry, etc., even if you have opted to not receive marketing communications from us. 
  • Automatically: We may collect certain information automatically as you navigate through our Websites, such as tracking the internet domain addresses from which you visit our Websites, other electronic markers and identifiers and other information about our site and mobile app traffic. We may analyze this data for preferences, trends, Website usage statistics and to recognize you. We may also receive usage data from your mobile phone or other Device you use to access our Websites or our Services, which we may also combine with other information.

Some of the Tracking Technologies we use include: Cookies and Clear GIFs.

Cookies are pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer’s hard drive. Cookies make web surfing easier for you by saving your customer identification information (i.e., username, password, shopping cart information, etc.) while you are visiting our Websites. Cookies also track where you travel on a site and what you look at and purchase. A clear GIF is typically a one-pixel, transparent image (although it can be a visible image as well), located on a web page or in an e-mail or other type of message, which is retrieved from a remote site on the internet enabling the verification of an individual’s viewing or receipt of a web page or message. You can learn more about how third party advertising companies use cookies and clear GIFs, including how to opt-out, by clicking here2.

  • The right to know. You have the right to request to know (i) the specific pieces of Personal Information we have about you; (ii) the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you in the last 12 months; (iii) the categories of sources from which that Personal Information was collected; (iv) the categories of your Personal Information that we sold or disclosed in the last 12 months; (v) the categories of third parties to whom your Personal Information was sold or disclosed in the last 12 months; and (vi) the purpose for collecting and selling your Personal Information. 
  • The right to deletion. You have the right to request that we delete the Personal Information that we have collected or maintain about you. We may deny your request under certain circumstances, such as if we need to comply with our legal obligations or complete a transaction for which your Personal Information was collected. If we deny your request for deletion, we will let you know the reason why. 
  • The right to equal service. If you choose to exercise any of these rights, we will not discriminate against you in any way. If you exercise certain rights, understand that you may be unable to use or access certain features of our Websites or our Services.

You may exercise your right to know and your right to deletion twice a year, free of charge. To exercise your right to know or your right to deletion, you may use the CCPA Privacy Request Form here. You may also submit your request by contacting us through the methods described in Section 15 below (“Contact Information”). 

We will take steps to verify your identity before processing your request to know or request to delete. We will not fulfill your request unless you have provided sufficient information for us to verify you are the individual about whom we collected Personal Information. If you have an account with us, we will use our existing account authentication practices to verify your identity. If you do not have an account with us, we may request additional information about you to verify your identity. We will only use the Personal Information provided in the verification process to verify your identity or authority to make a request and to track and document request responses, unless you initially provided the information for another purpose.

You may use an authorized agent to submit a request to know or a request to delete. When we verify your agent’s request, we may verify both your and your agent’s identity and request a signed document from you that authorizes your agent to make the request on your behalf. To protect your Personal Information, we reserve the right to deny a request from an agent that does not submit proof that they have been authorized by you to act on their behalf.

       c. Shine the Light

Under the California “Shine the Light” law, codified in California Civil Code Section 1798.83, California residents may opt-out of Pierre Fabre’s disclosure of Personal Information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. Any California resident may choose to opt-out of the sharing of such Personal Information with third parties for marketing purposes at any time by directing such request to customerservice@ducrayusa.com.
