Website Privacy Policy

Protecting the privacy and confidentiality of personal information is a top priority for United Shades of Skin. We collect, use, and disclose personal information in a responsible and ethical manner. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use your personal data.

At United Shades of Skin, we value your privacy and only collect your personal information when you complete a form to book an appointment with us. The personal information we collect includes your name, email address, and phone number. We treat your business information, including our own, with the same level of confidentiality, privacy, and respect as personal information.

To ensure optimal performance when delivering our services, we collect additional information, such as metadata, log files, cookie/device IDs, page load time, server response time, approximate location information, and error data. We also use cookies and similar technologies on our websites to track information like your browsing behaviour, the links you click, and your device type. This information helps us measure website performance, improve our systems, and provide you with more relevant product offerings.

We may share your information with trusted third parties like Janeapp, the medical software we use to book your appointment and record your medical information digitally. If we collect information from you in connection with a co-branded offer, it will be clear at the point of collection who is collecting the information and whose privacy policy applies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party sites.

We follow generally accepted standards to store and protect the personal information we collect, including encryption where appropriate. We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to provide the services you have requested and for a variety of legitimate legal or business purposes.
