As a matter of course, we will delete your identifiable information if you have not undertaken business with us after 2 years.

We collect the very minimum personal information to run our business effectively. We collect telephone numbers and names, We do need to keep details on services you have had with us such as  colour formulations, your preferred stylist, sometimes we may need to document any information we obtain about prior medical history that would stop us from delivering a service to our client, this would be with consent via yourself.  This information is deleted after 2 years of no business with us. We consider you have provided consent for us to store personally identifying information and information about your services based on your receiving services from us. Of course if you want, you can opt out at any time.

Appointment confirmations and reminders:

We will contact you via phone, email or SMS to confirm appointments booked and remind you of upcoming appointments. We consider your having made the appointment as consent to undertake this activity but, if you want, you may opt-out at any time.

Marketing:

We will not undertake phone, mail, email or SMS marketing without you first providing consent for us to do so. Our marketing campaigns are automated and use rules based on services and products purchased and information we collect from you. For example, we may send marketing campaigns, the fact we miss you (you have not visited for 3 months) and other special days like Valentine’s Day and Christmas. Of course, you may opt out of receiving marketing material at any time.
