PRIVACY POLICY  

INFORMATION KUDOSBEAUTY  MAY COLLECT FROM CUSTOMERS  

Kudosbeauty may collect and process the following data about Customers: 
a) information that Customers provide by filling in forms on the site at  www.kudosbeauty.ie  (“the Site”).  Kudosbeauty may also ask Customers for information when Customers report a problem with the Site; 

b) if Customers contact Kudosbeauty, Kudosbeauty may keep a record of that correspondence; 

c) details of transactions Customers carry out through the Site and of the fulfilment of Customers' orders; 

d) details of Customers' visits to the Site including, but not limited to, traffic data, location data, weblogs and other communication data, whether this is required for Kudosbeauty’s own billing purposes or otherwise and the resources that Customers access.  


 IP ADDRESSES AND COOKIES

 Kudosbeauty may collect information about Customers' computers, including where available Customers' IP addresses, operating systems and browser types, for system administration. This is statistical data about Kudosbeauty ‘s users„ browsing actions and patterns, and does not identify any individual. 
 
For the same reason, Kudosbeauty may obtain information about Customers' general internet usage by using a cookie file which is stored on the hard drive of the Customer's computer. Cookies contain information that is transferred to Customers' computer's hard drive. They help Kudosbeauty to improve the Site and to deliver a better and more personalised service. They enable Kudosbeauty: 
a) to estimate Kudosbeauty’s audience size and usage pattern; 

b) to store information about Customers' preferences, and so allow Kudosbeauty to customise the Site according to Customers' individual interests; 

c) to speed up Customers' searches; and 

d) to recognise Customers when they return to the Site.  

Customers may refuse to accept cookies by activating the setting on their browsers which allows them to refuse the setting of cookies. However, if Customers select this setting they may be unable to access certain parts of the Site. Unless Customers have adjusted their browser settings so that they will refuse cookies, Kudosbeauty ‘s system will issue cookies when Customers log on to the Site. 


WHERE KUDOSBEAUTY STORES CUSTOMERS’ PERSONAL DATA 

The data that Kudosbeauty collects from Customers may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for Kudosbeauty or for one of Kudosbeauty ‘s suppliers. Such staff maybe engaged in, among other things, the fulfilment of Customers' order,  and the provision of support services. By submitting their personal data, Customers agree to this transfer, storing or processing. Kudosbeauty will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that Customers' data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.
  
All information Customers provide to Kudosbeauty is stored on Kudosbeauty ‘s secure servers. Kudosbeauty does not process or store any customer financial information in connection with the Site. 
Where Kudosbeauty has given Customers (or where Customers have chosen) a password which enables them to access certain parts of the Site, they are responsible for keeping this password confidential. Kudosbeauty asks Customers not to share a password with anyone.  
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although Kudosbeauty will do its best to protect Customers' personal data, Kudosbeauty cannot guarantee the security of Customers' data transmitted to the Site; any transmission is at the Customers' own risk. Once Kudosbeauty has received Customers' information, Kudosbeauty will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
