• Service providers and other third parties under contract who help with our business operations (such as, but not limited to, site analytics and operations).

• Government or law enforcement agencies in order to respond to lawful requests, including where disclosure is required by applicable laws, court orders, or government regulations.
• Affiliated or unaffiliated third parties on an anonymous, aggregate basis. While this information will not identify you personally, in some instances these third parties may be able to combine this aggregate information with other data they have about you, or that they receive from third parties, in a manner that allows them to identify you personally.

How Do We Use Your Information?
We may use the information we collect from you when you surf the Web Site or use certain other site features in the following ways:
• To personalize your site experience and to allow us to deliver the type of content and product offerings in which you are most interested.
• To allow us to better service you in responding to your customer service requests.
• To administer a site feature.
How Do We Protect Personal Information?
We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your Personal Information. Your Personal Information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep such information confidential.
Memoire has internal policies and controls in place in an effort to ensure that your information is not lost, accidentally destroyed, misused or disclosed, and is not accessed except by its employees in the performance of their duties for Memoire. Personal Information may be stored in a variety of different storage locations, including in Memoire’s servers and IT systems (including Memoire’s email system).
Where Memoire engages third parties to process Personal Information on its behalf, your Personal Information is provided to the third parties pursuant to written contracts, which obligate them to implement appropriate technical safeguards to maintain the security of the information in an effort to ensure that your Personal Information is not lost, accidentally destroyed, misused or disclosed.
Memoire retains Personal Information for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it was processed. For more information on where and how long your Personal Information is stored, and for more information on your rights to be forgotten/of erasure, please contact us at perfectionstylist@heartsonfire.com.
Will Memoire Transfer My Personal Information Across Borders?
Memoire may transfer certain Personal Information across geographical borders to other Memoire locations or outside companies working with us or on our behalf. Memoire may also store Personal Information in a jurisdiction other than where you are based and such jurisdiction may not provide the same level of protection for your Personal Information as your home country. Memoire will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and no transfer of your data will take place to an organization or a country unless there are adequate controls in place including the security of your data and other Personal Information. By providing your information to Memoire, you are consenting to this transfer and/or storage of your Personal Information across borders.
Do We Use “Cookies”?
Yes. “Cookies” are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer's hard drive through your web browser (if you allow) that enables the site's or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For instance, we use “cookies” to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use “cookies” to help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.
We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our site visitor. These service providers are not permitted to sell the information collected on our behalf except to help Memoire conduct and improve its business. The companies use “cookies” to gather anonymous data about our visitors on behalf of Memoire. They do not collect Personal Information like e-mail, credit card number, phone number, or name.
You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a “cookie” is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser (like Internet Explorer or Mozilla) settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your browser's Help Menu to learn the correct way to modify your “cookie” settings. If you turn off “cookies,” you won't have access to many features that make your site experience more efficient and some of our services will not function properly.
Do We Disclose the Information We Collect to Outside Parties?
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your Personal Information, except as described in the Privacy Policy. The term “outside parties” does not include Memoire wholly-owned companies. It also does not include Web Site hosting partners or other parties who assist us in operating our Web Site, conducting Memoire's business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our Web Site policies, or protect ours or others' rights, property, or safety.
Social Media Platforms
At various times, Memoire may host blogs, forums, crowd-sourcing and other applications or services (collectively, “Social Media Platforms”). Any information you share on these Social Media Platforms may become public on the internet and we cannot prevent further use of this information. You can control what data you share through privacy settings available on some Social Media Platforms. Please refer to those third-party sites’ privacy policies and terms of use to learn more about their privacy practices, which we do not control.
