recording internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type use, internet service

Cookies, web beacons, and advertisers

a website to identify you. The use of cookies is a common practice on many

interact with the pages and content on the pages of a web site.
This web site may serve third party advertisements that may also use cookies
and web beacons in the course of ads being served on our website, to ascertain

vendors (such as credit card companies, clearinghouses and banks and including

sales services may collect this information from our visitors and authorized
customers. We do not control how these third parties use such information,
but we do ask them to disclose how they use personal information provided
to them
from visitors and authorized customers. Some of these third parties may be
intermediaries that act solely as links in the distribution chain, and do
not store, retain,
or use the information given to them.

We use personally identifiable information to customize the site, to make
appropriate service offerings, and to fulfill buying and selling requests

and authorized customers in response to specific inquiries, or to provide
requested information.
With whom may the information be shared?
Personally identifiable information about authorized customers may be shared
with other authorized customers who wish to evaluate potential transactions
with other authorized customers. We may share aggregated information about

offer the opportunity
to "opt out" of receiving information or being contacted by us or by any
agency acting on our behalf.

stored and is not accessible to third parties or employees of dermatitisfacts.com
except for use as indicated above.
What choices are available to visitors regarding collection, use and

What partners or service providers have access to personally identifiable

dermatitisfacts.com has entered into and will continue to enter into partnerships

Disclosure of personally identifiable information to comply with law.
We will disclose personally identifiable information in order to comply with
a court order or subpoena or a request from a law enforcement agency to release
information. We will also disclose personally identifiable information when
reasonably necessary to protect the safety of our visitors and authorized
customers.
How does the site keep personally identifiable information secure?
All of our employees are familiar with our security policy and practices.
The personally identifiable information of our visitors and authorized customers
is only accessible to a limited number of qualified employees who are given
a password in order to gain access to the information. We audit our security
systems and processes on a regular basis. Sensitive information, such as
credit
card numbers or social security numbers, is protected by encryption protocols,
in place to protect information sent over the internet. While we take commercially
reasonable measures to maintain a secure site, electronic communications
and databases are subject to errors, tampering and break-ins, and we cannot
guarantee
or warrant that such events will not take place and we will not be liable
to visitors or authorized customers for any such occurrences.
How can visitors correct any inaccuracies in personally identifiable
information?
Visitors and authorized customers may contact us to update personally identifiable
information about them or to correct any inaccuracies by emailing us
at admin @ dermatitisfacts.com
Can a visitor delete or deactivate personally identifiable information
collected by the site?
We provide visitors and authorized customers with a mechanism to delete/deactivate
personally identifiable information from the site's database by contacting
admin @ dermatitisfacts.com. However, because of backups and records of deletions,
it
may be impossible to delete a visitor's entry without retaining some residual
information. An individual who requests to have personally identifiable information
deactivated will have this information functionally deleted, and we will
not sell, transfer, or use personally identifiable information relating to
that
individual in any way moving
forward.
What happens if the privacy policy changes?
We will let our visitors and authorized customers know about changes to our
privacy policy by posting such changes on the site. However, if we are changing
our privacy policy in a manner that might cause disclosure of personally
identifiable information that a visitor or authorized customer has previously
requested not
be disclosed, we will contact such visitor or authorized customer to allow
such visitor or authorized customer to prevent such disclosure.

This site is not directed at children. Visitors and authorized customers
