Introduction

rufousqeec B.V. ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy and personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, process, and safeguard your information when you use our virtual skincare consultation platform and services. We comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other applicable data protection laws in the European Union.

Data Controller

rufousqeec B.V. is the data controller for the personal information collected through our platform. Our registered office is located at Nieuwstraat 150, 1048 TR Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands. Company registration number: B632025933, VAT number: NL81025632B04.

Data Collection

The data we collect includes personal information such as your name, email address, phone number, billing address, and payment information when you register for our services. We also collect health-related information about your skin condition, fitness routine, skincare concerns, and lifestyle factors that are relevant to providing personalized skincare consultations. During video consultations, we may record sessions with your explicit consent for quality assurance and reference purposes. Additionally, we automatically collect technical information such as IP addresses, browser type, device information, and usage patterns when you interact with our website and platform.

Legal Basis for Processing

Under GDPR, we process your personal data based on the following legal grounds: performance of contract when providing our consultation services, legitimate interests for improving our services and platform functionality, consent for marketing communications and optional data processing, and legal obligation for compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

How We Use Your Information

We explain how we use your information to provide and deliver our virtual skincare consultation services, including scheduling appointments, conducting video consultations, and providing personalized skincare recommendations. We use your data to process payments and manage billing for our services, communicate with you about appointments, service updates, and respond to your inquiries. We analyze usage patterns to improve our platform functionality and service quality, ensure the security and integrity of our platform, and comply with legal and regulatory requirements. With your consent, we may send you marketing communications about new services, promotions, and skincare tips relevant to your interests.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share your data with trusted service providers who assist us in operating our platform and delivering our services, including payment processors, cloud hosting providers, and video conferencing platforms. These providers are contractually bound to protect your data and use it only for specified purposes. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect our rights and safety, or in connection with a business transaction such as a merger or acquisition.

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. This includes encryption of data in transit and at rest, secure access controls, regular security assessments, and staff training on data protection. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy and comply with legal requirements. Consultation records and health information are typically retained for 7 years after your last consultation for medical and legal compliance purposes. Account information is retained while your account is active and for 3 years after account closure. Marketing preferences are retained until you withdraw consent or request deletion. Payment information is retained as required for tax and accounting purposes, typically 7 years.
