Service providers, third parties who perform services on our behalf, are contractually restricted from using your information in any manner other than in helping us to provide you with the products and services available from AAFE Sleep. We may also, in certain instances, disclose your personal information when we have reason to believe that it is necessary to identify you, contact you, to advise you of a product recall, detect and protect you or us from fraud or theft, manage information security or bring legal action to protect your rights or the rights of AAFE Sleep or others.

Mobile Privacy

AAFE Sleep offers mobile applications (commonly known as “apps”) that allow you to shop online, check product availability, learn about store events, or receive other information from AAFE Sleep. All personal information collected by AAFE Sleep via our mobile application is protected by this Privacy Policy.

Although you do not have to provide your location information to AAFE Sleep to use our mobile applications, many specific services such as find-a-facial-esthetics-provider require a zip code to function. You may manually enter a zip code and we will save your zip code(s) for future reference. Alternatively, when you download our mobile application, you may choose to allow it to obtain your precise location from your mobile device when you click the “near me” button. In this case, we will determine your zip code from the precise location data received from your mobile device. We do not store precise location data; we only store the zip code associated with the location. We may also update our mobile applications to offer automatic (or “push”) notifications. We will provide push notifications only to those customers who opt-in to receive such notifications from AAFE Sleep. If you have questions about location and notification privacy, please contact your mobile service provider or the manufacturer of you device to learn how to adjust your settings.

In the future, we may offer updated or enhanced versions of our mobile applications that include additional features created by us or using third party functionality. Our applications or the third party may automatically collect information about your precise location from your device, but only if you allow it.

Cookies, Web Beacons, and Other Similar Technologies

Our website uses “cookie” and “web beacon” technology. We use cookies and web beacons to identify your device, provide website user authentication, conduct fraud prevention and management services, distinguish you from other visitors, record your IP address and understand your use of our site, and identify the name of the Web site from which you linked to AAFE Sleep. This information is used for fulfilling contracts with our business partners, and to help us serve you better by improving our website design, as well as our products, services, and promotions. We do not otherwise track any information about your use of other websites. Information obtained through cookies and web beacons may be shared with or obtained by service providers on our behalf.

A cookie is a small data file that is placed on the hard drive of your computer when you visit a website. A “session cookie” expires immediately when you end your session (i.e., close your browser). A “persistent cookie” stores information on the hard drive so when you end your session and return to the same website at a later date, the cookie information is still available. A web beacon is a small string of code that represents a clear graphic image and is used in conjunction with a cookie.

When you visit our website, we may use both a session and a persistent cookie. This AAFE Sleep-placed cookie may contain information (such as a unique user ID) that is used to track your usage of our website and in some cases, your e-mail address. Your e-mail address is only saved in this AAFE Sleep-placed cookie if you register with us. A web beacon allows us to capture certain additional types of information about a visitor’s actions on a web site, such as a visitor’s cookie number, the time, date, duration and number of page views, a description of the page where the Web beacon is placed, and details about any items that were purchased.

If you register with us, this AAFE Sleep-placed cookie allows us to recognize you when you return to our website and provides you with access to your account information. If you save your information with or order from us, we may also use cookies to monitor and maintain information about your use of our website. If you have not saved your information with or ordered from us, we may monitor and maintain information about your use of our website in a manner that does not identify you. You can disable cookies at any time by using your browser options; however, if you turn off cookies, we will not be able to track your order or enable you to make a purchase from our website. In addition, we will not be able to recognize you as a registered user to allow you access to your account information.

We may use Flash Cookies (also known as Local Stored Objects) or other similar technologies. A Flash cookie is a small data file placed on a computer using Adobe Flash technology that may be built into your computer or downloaded by you to your computer. We use these technologies to personalize and enhance your online experience, facilitate processes, personalize and store your settings. Flash cookies may help our website visitors to, for example, set volume preference associated with a video experience, play games and perform surveys. They help us improve our sites by measuring which areas are of greatest interest to customers. We do not use Flash cookies for marketing or behavioral targeting purposes. Flash cookies are different from browser cookies and the cookie management tools provided by your browser will not remove Flash cookies. Learn how to manage privacy and storage settings for Flash cookies. If you disable Flash cookies or other similar technologies, please be aware that you may not have access to certain features and services that make your online experience more efficient and enjoyable.

Third-Party Advertising Partners

We use third-party service providers to serve advertisements (banners or links) on our behalf across the Internet.
These advertising service providers may collect non-identifiable information about your visits to our website, and your interactions with our products and services. Such non-identifiable information does not include your name, address, e-mail address or other personal information. The information is collected through the use of cookies and pixel tags (also known as action tags), which is industry-standard technology used by most major websites.

In addition to the information about your visits to our website, our service providers may also use the information about your visits to other websites to target advertisements for products and services available from AAFE Sleep.

Currently, we use third party-placed tracking pixels and cookies from the following advertising delivery partner: Google. In the future we may partner with other companies to provide interest-based advertising, both on and off <a href=”www.facialesthetics.org” target=”_blank”>www.facialesthetics.org</a>. If this occurs, AAFE Sleep provides you with an opportunity to opt out when these advertisements are served. You may manage your third-party advertising preferences by clicking here.

If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices for not having this information used by third-party service providers, please visit this page.

Facebook Custom Audience Ads from AAFE Sleep
We may display interest-based ads to you when you are using Facebook through a tool offered by Facebook called the Custom Audience Tool. This tool allows us to personalize our ads based on your shopping experience with us. We do not share any of your personal information, including your shopping history, with Facebook. The tool lets AAFE Sleep convert your e-mail address to a unique number that Facebook uses to match to unique numbers Facebook generates from e-mail addresses of its users. You may opt-out of Facebook Custom Audience ads from emailing the AAFE Sleep by clicking here.

Social Media Interactions

AAFE Sleep invites you to socialize and share your inspiration, finds and purchases with your friends using Social Media tools such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram. If you choose to use these tools, you may be sharing certain profile elements, including your comments. This sharing is subject to each social media program’s privacy policies. We also use Facebook Social Plugins to allow Facebook to share information and friends’ activities with its members while they are on our website. For example, Social Plugins allow Facebook to show you and your friends’ “Likes” on our product pages if you are logged into Facebook while shopping at FacialEsthetics.org. AAFE Sleep does not receive or control any of the content from Facebook Social Plugins. To remove a Facebook “Like” through AAFE Sleep, place your cursor in the “grayed out” Like button and click on the “X” that appears. This removes the “Like” from your Facebook Page, as well as from AAFE Sleep’s websites. You can also delete comments made while at Facialesthetics.org from your Facebook Page.

For more information about Facebook Social Plugins and other social media tools, click here.

We may allow you to sign in to your Facialesthetics.org account using Facebook Connect. If you choose to do this, we may collect information necessary to facilitate social interactions such as friend lists, birthday, check-ins, basic profile information and your profile picture but only if the privacy settings you and your friends set within Facebook allow it. We will use the information we collect to create and facilitate an interactive social experience and to bring you products, services and programs from AAFE Sleep. AAFE Sleep will always comply both with its privacy policy as well as with Facebook Connect terms regarding use of Facebook profile information.
