2. Collecting personal information

We may collect, store and use the following kinds of personal information:

(a) Information that you provide to us for the purpose of booking an appointment.

(b) Information relating to any purchases you make of our goods (including your name, delivery address, payment address, telephone numbers, email address); All payments are processed via a third party integration called Stripe, completely secure, PCI compliant and SSL enabled. Stripe has certain data processing activities for which it acts as a data controller, and others for which it acts as a data processor. A good illustration of this dual role is when Stripe processes credit card transactions. Facilitating a transaction requires the processing of personal data, such as the cardholder’s name, credit card number, the credit card expiry date, and CVC code. The cardholder’s data is sent from the Stripe user to Stripe via the Stripe API (or by some other integration method, such as Stripe Elements). Stripe then uses the data to complete the transaction within the systems of the credit card networks, which is a function that Stripe performs as a data processor. However, Stripe also uses the data to comply with its regulatory obligations (such as Know Your Customer (“KYC”) and Anti Money Laundering (“AML”), and in this role Stripe is a data controller.
