6. Online Advertising & Retargeting
Gorgeous Within may use cookies, pixels, or similar technologies to measure advertising performance or display advertisements based on previous interactions with our website.
Under certain state privacy laws, the use of these technologies may be considered “selling,” “sharing,” or processing personal information for targeted advertising, even when no money is exchanged.

7. Do Not Track & Global Privacy Control
Some internet browsers provide a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is currently no universally accepted standard for responding to Do Not Track signals, our website may not respond to all such signals.
Where required by applicable law and supported by our website technology, Gorgeous Within will recognize legally valid browser-based opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information or its use for targeted advertising.

9. Photographs, Videos & Before-and-After Images
Gorgeous Within may take photographs, videos, or other recordings in connection with services. Images needed for internal documentation, service planning, or progress tracking will be treated as private information and used only for legitimate business or service-related purposes.
Gorgeous Within will obtain separate permission before using an identifiable client photograph, video, name, likeness, or before-and-after image for advertising, social media, educational materials, website content, or other public promotional purposes.
Consent to promotional use is voluntary and is not a condition of receiving services. A client may withdraw permission for future use by contacting Gorgeous Within. Withdrawal will not necessarily apply to materials already printed, distributed, published, or otherwise used before the request was received.
Gorgeous Within does not use client photographs to create facial-recognition templates or other biometric identifiers unless such use is separately disclosed and legally required consent is obtained.

Gorgeous Within may publish testimonials, reviews, or client stories only with permission or when the client has independently posted the information publicly.
Testimonials may include a client’s name, photograph, service experience, or other details authorized for publication. Participation is voluntary, and declining to provide a testimonial will not affect access to services.
You may request that Gorgeous Within discontinue future use of a testimonial by contacting us. We will make reasonable efforts to remove the testimonial from platforms under our direct control. We may not be able to remove content from previously distributed materials, archived pages, search-engine results, or third-party websites outside our control.

If the website allows you to create an account, you are responsible for:
Maintaining the confidentiality of your username and password
Using a strong and unique password
Restricting access to your device and account
Providing accurate and current account information
Notifying Gorgeous Within promptly of suspected unauthorized access
Gorgeous Within is not responsible for account activity resulting from your failure to protect login credentials, except where otherwise required by law.
12. Health Information & HIPAA
Information voluntarily provided to Gorgeous Within may include health, beauty, wellness, lifestyle, treatment, or service-preference information.
Unless you are specifically instructed to use a secure form or portal, ordinary email, text messaging, and general website contact forms should not be used to communicate highly sensitive medical information.
HIPAA applies only to certain healthcare providers, health plans, clearinghouses, and business associates. If and to the extent Gorgeous Within is legally subject to HIPAA, protected health information will also be handled according to applicable HIPAA requirements and any separate Notice of Privacy Practices provided to you.
If there is a conflict between this Privacy Policy and an applicable Notice of Privacy Practices, the Notice of Privacy Practices will govern protected health information.
13. Third-Party Websites & Services
Our website may contain links to outside websites, social-media platforms, scheduling systems, payment systems, retailers, laboratories, or other third-party services.
Gorgeous Within does not control and is not responsible for the privacy, security, availability, content, products, or practices of third-party websites or services. You should review the privacy policy and terms of any outside service before providing personal information.
14. Data Security
Gorgeous Within uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, destruction, or disclosure.
However, no website, electronic transmission, email system, or data-storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You provide information electronically at your own risk.
15. Data Breach Notification
If Gorgeous Within discovers a security incident involving personal information, we will investigate the incident and take reasonable steps to contain and address it.
