These tracking technologies may collect information about your browser, device, and browsing activity, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, unique IDs assigned to your device, the date and time of your visit to the Platform, the site from which you came and the site that you visit after leaving the Platform, and information about the way you engage with the Platform and our content (e.g., the pages on the Platform that you visit, how frequently you access the Platform, whether you open emails or click the links contained in emails sent by us or on our behalf, whether you access the Platform from multiple devices, the products you view and click on, and similar actions you take on the Platform).

Interest-Based Advertising

We engage in interest-based advertising to deliver online, relevant advertising to you. We also permit third-party online advertising networks, social media companies, and other third-party services to collect information about your use of the Platform over time so that they may display advertisements tailored to you both on the Platform and on third-party online services and across the devices you may use.

Typically, though not always, the information used for interest-based advertising is collected through cookies or other similar tracking technologies. We may also provide certain identifiers (such as an email address or user ID) or hashed data to our third-party advertising partners to help identify you across devices or serve you relevant advertisements on social media platforms you may use. In addition to serving interest-based advertisements, our third-party partners may use personal information to deliver certain advertising-related services, such as reporting, attribution, analytics, and market research.

Some web browsers, websites/platforms, and mobile devices allow you to exercise certain choices with respect to interest-based advertising, as described below.

  • Web browser opt-out: You may be able to opt out of receiving interest-based advertisements using the browser opt-out tools and consumer choice mechanisms provided by interest-based advertising self-regulatory groups by following the links below:

    • The DAA offers a tool for opting out of the collection of cross-app data on a mobile device for interest-based advertising. To exercise your choices with respect to participating companies, please download the AppChoices tool at www.aboutads.info/appchoices.

You will need to opt out separately on all of your browsers and devices, as each opt-out will apply only to the specific browser or device from which you opt out. If you delete or reset your cookies or mobile identifiers, change browsers, or use a different device, any opt-out cookie or tool may no longer work and you will have to opt out again. Even if you choose to opt out of receiving interest-based advertising, you may still receive advertising, but the advertisements may be less relevant.

Some of our partners may provide you with additional choices with respect to interest-based advertising. For example, certain social media platforms allow you to control your advertising preferences directly through their services. Please review the privacy notices of the third-party services you use for more information.

Depending on your U.S. state residency, our use and disclosure of information for interest-based advertising purposes constitutes the processing of personal information for “targeted advertising” under applicable law. Details on how to exercise your legal rights with respect to “targeted advertising” can be found in the “Your Choices and Legal Rights” section below.

As detailed in the “How We Disclose Personal Information” section above, we disclose personal information to fulfill the purposes described. We will also disclose certain categories of personal information to competent governmental and public authorities and other third parties as necessary or appropriate, including when we have a legal or contractual obligation to disclose the information.

Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

As detailed in the chart above, we “sell” and “share” (as such terms are defined in the CCPA), certain categories of personal information to and with third parties and have “sold” and “shared” certain categories of personal information in the past twelve (12) months. Please refer to the chart above for additional details.

We do not “sell” or “share” the personal information of individuals we know to be under 16 years of age.

Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information

As detailed in the chart above, we collect certain “sensitive personal information” (as defined in the CCPA). However, we do not use or disclose such information for any purpose outside of the limited permissible purposes set forth in the regulations implementing the CCPA. Such purposes include providing the Services and our products; preventing, detecting, and investigating security incidents; and verifying, maintaining the quality of, and improving the Services.

Your Legal Rights

You have the right to request that we:

  • Disclose to you the following information covering the twelve (12) months preceding your request:
    • the categories of personal information we have collected about you and the categories of sources from which we collected such information;
    • the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you;
    • the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing personal information about you;
    • the categories of third parties to whom we disclosed such personal information; and
    • if we sold, shared, or disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, two separate lists disclosing:
      • sales and shares, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient received; and
      • disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained.
  • Correct inaccurate personal information that we maintain about you, taking into account the nature of the personal information and the purposes of the processing.
  • Delete the personal information that we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions.

We will not discriminate against you if you decide to exercise your rights under the CCPA. Please note that certain rights are subject to applicable exceptions under the CCPA.

If you are a California resident and interested in exercising any of the above-listed rights, you can do so by:

  • Sending an email to privacy@tatcha.com with the subject line “Privacy Rights Request.”
  • Filling out our Data Request Form
  • Calling us at 1-877-322-8633.

To protect your privacy, we will require the matching of up to three pieces of personal information provided with your request with information we maintain to verify that it is you making the request. Where applicable, we will use the requested information for verification purposes only. Please note that we may decline a request where we are unable to verify your identity and confirm the personal information we maintain relates to you.

Exercising your rights does not require you to create an account with us.

Authorized Agents

You may authorize someone to submit a privacy rights request on your behalf (an “authorized agent”). An authorized agent will need to demonstrate that you’ve authorized them to act on your behalf, unless you have provided the agent with power of attorney pursuant to applicable probate law. Depending on the evidence provided, we may also contact you to verify your identity with us or request confirmation from you that the agent is authorized to submit the request on your behalf.

Exercising Your Sale and Sharing Opt-Out Right

As detailed in the chart above, we “sell” and “share” certain categories of personal information to and with third parties. If you are 16 years of age or older, in addition to the rights described above, you have the right to direct us to not “sell” or “share” your personal information at any time. To exercise your opt-out right, you may submit a request to us by:

  • Clicking “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” in the footer of our website and following the instructions on the window that pops up or
  • Sending an email to privacy@tatcha.com with the subject line “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.”

Alternatively, where available, you may choose to enable a tool that automatically communicates your opt-out preferences to all businesses that you interact with online. If you enable a browser-based opt-out preference signal that complies with the CCPA, such as the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”), upon receipt or detection, we will treat the signal as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information linked to that browser and any consumer profile we have associated with that browser. Please note that if you use different browsers or browser profiles, you will have to enable the signal on each one that you use.

An authorized agent may also use the methods described above to submit a request to opt out on your behalf if you provide the agent with signed permission to do so. Please note that we may request from the agent documentation demonstrating that they have your authority to act on your behalf.

Notice of Financial Incentive

We may provide discounts or promotions when you agree to receive marketing and promotional communications from us or claim a specific offer when you interact with us and/or the Platform (each, an “Offer”). The terms of each Offer will be provided to you when it is made available. You may opt out of marketing and promotional communications from us at any time as described in our messages to you and as described in the “Your Choices and Legal Rights” section above.

We collect and retain personal information to support and fulfill certain Offers, which may include information in the following categories:

  • Identifiers
  • Personal information categories listed in the California Customer Records statute
  • Commercial information
  • Internet or other electronic network activity information
  • Geolocation data
  • Inferences

Because we collect and retain personal information in connection with our administration of certain Offers, they may be considered “financial incentives” or “price or service differences” under California law, or a “bona fide loyalty program” under Colorado law. The personal information we collect and retain in connection with the Offers may also be used to make your account, to supplement your account information (where applicable), and for targeted advertising. Additional details regarding our use of personal information can be found in the “How We Use Personal Information” section above. We may sell or share your personal information with third parties as described in our California Privacy Rights “Personal Information Collection and Disclosure” section, including to analytics and advertising partners (including social media platforms). If you ask us to delete the personal information associated with the Offers, we will not be able to provide you with access to these programs.

The value of the personal information we collect will vary based on the Offer and is calculated based on expenses related to offering the Offer, which may include the costs associated with providing discounts or promotions, IP or marketing-related costs, and other related expenses.

You have the right to opt out of any Offer at any time in accordance with the terms of the Offer or by contacting us at privacy@tatcha.com.

Revisions To This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change, modify, add, remove, or otherwise revise portions of this policy at any time. When we do, we will post the change(s) on our Services. Your continued use of our products and Services following the posting of changes to these terms means you accept these changes. If we change this policy in a material or substantive way, we will provide appropriate notice to you.

INFORMATION SECURITY

We employ and maintain reasonable administrative, physical, and technical measures designed to safeguard and protect the personal information under our control from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

However, the Internet is not 100% secure. As a result, like all businesses, we cannot guarantee the security of the personal information you provide to us via the Platform. We encourage you to use caution when using the Internet. A username and a password are needed to access certain areas of the Platform. It is your responsibility to protect your username and password.

CROSS-BORDER TRANSFERS

The Platform is directed only to U.S. consumers. The Platform is not directed to consumers outside of the U.S. We will transfer and/or store personal information under our control in the United States and/or other countries where we have facilities or in which we engage service providers. As a result, your personal information may be transferred to other countries or regions.

If you live outside of the United States, you understand and agree that we may transfer your personal information to the United States. When we transfer your personal information outside of your country of residence, we do so in accordance with applicable law and take appropriate steps to ensure your information is protected. However, please note that while outside of the jurisdiction in which you reside, your personal information will be subject to applicable local laws (including those of the United States), which may not provide the same level of protections for personal information as those in your own country.

INFORMATION RETENTION

We will retain your personal information as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Notice, unless a longer retention period is required or allowed under law.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information; the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the personal information; the purposes for which we use the personal information; whether we can achieve the purposes through other means; and the applicable legal requirements.

If we de-identify information, we will maintain and use the information in de-identified form and not attempt to re-identify the information except as required or permitted by law.

LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

The Platform may contain links to third-party sites, plug-ins, applications, or other online services. If you click on a link to a third-party service, you will be taken to a service we do not control and that is not governed by this Notice. We are not responsible for third parties’ privacy practices. We suggest that you read the privacy notices of every service with which you interact carefully.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY NOTICE

From time to time, we may update this Notice to reflect changes in our practices with respect to the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information and/or changes in applicable law.

The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page indicates when this Notice was last revised. If we make changes, we will revise the date at the top of this page and, in the case of material changes, we will provide you with additional notice (in accordance with applicable law).

Unless otherwise stated, the current version of this Notice applies to all personal information under our control. We encourage you to review this Notice periodically to remain informed about our information handling and privacy practices.
