Privacy Policy

LAST UPDATED: 5/24/2022

This Privacy Policy (or “Policy”) tells you how Laura Mercier Cosmetics (“Laura Mercier”, “we,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects (“Processes”) information obtained from and about our customers (“you”). For the purposes of this Policy, Personal Information means any information about you or another identifiable individual. This Policy also tells you how you can access and update your Personal Information and make certain choices about how your Personal Information is used (your “Data Subject Rights”).

Laura Mercier only collects, uses, and shares Personal Information that is necessary to maintain and improve our commercial relationship with you and meet our legitimate business needs. This Policy covers both our online and offline data collection activities, including Personal Information that we collect through our various websites and applications, as well as our offline programs and events. By using a Laura Mercier website or by otherwise giving us your Personal Information, you agree to the terms of this Policy. If you do not agree to this Policy, you must not use our websites or applications or give us any of your Personal Information. If we want to change the way we Process your Personal Information, we will post those changes in this Privacy Policy. For material changes (i.e., substantially new practices you wouldn’t expect from us or that we didn’t previously tell you about), we may decide to notify you more prominently and/or give you prior choice. We reserve the right to make changes to our practices and this Policy at any time, provided that we follow the procedures above.

THIS PRIVACY POLICY ANSWERS THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:

Q: HOW DO WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION FROM YOU?

This Privacy Policy applies to Personal Information that we, Laura Mercier, collect from or about our customers through the methods described below. We may combine Personal Information collected via one method (e.g., a Laura Mercier website) with Personal Information collected via another method (e.g., a Laura Mercier offline program or event). We do this to get a more complete view of our customers, which, in turn, allows us to serve you better and with more personalization. Also note that not all of the methods listed below may be relevant to you.

LAURA MERCIER WEBSITES AND APPLICATIONS

We may collect Personal Information from you through one of our Canadian or international websites or applications. This could include (a) any site that we own and control under our own domain (such as lauramercier.ca, or some other domain name that redirects you to one of these sites), or (b) any site or web application that we may develop and run on a third party social network such as Facebook. This could also include any site or application that we specifically design for use on a cell phone or other mobile device, such as a mobile-enabled site (i.e., WAP site) or mobile application (e.g., iPad/iPhone app). This Policy will only apply if it is posted or linked to on the website or application which you are using.

LAURA MERCIER STORE COUNTERS

We may collect Personal Information from you at one of our store counters located within department stores. This may take the form of a printed registration card or electronic registration, or other Personal Information collected during checkout.

LAURA MERCIER TEXT MESSAGING PROGRAMS

We may collect Personal Information from you through one of our inbound text messaging programs. For example, periodically we may allow customers to send us inbound text messages using a short code that we create and advertise in connection with a special offer or promotion. These programs might be advertised in one of our store boutiques or on one of our websites or applications. If you choose to participate in one of these programs, Personal Information about your physical geo-location may be collected and used for marketing purposes.

CALL CENTER ORDERS

We may collect Personal Information from you through our call centers, for example if you place an order over the phone. By email, or through live chat to our customer service department. These methods of ordering are available in Canada and in some locations outside of Canada. Our call centers may also collect Personal Information from you to respond to your question or comment or other follow-up request.

EMAIL CORRESPONDENCE

We may collect Personal Information from you if you correspond with us via email. For example, if you send an email to our customer service department, we may obtain certain Personal Information about you (such as your contact email address) and use it to follow up.

DATA COLLECTED FROM OTHER SOURCES

Occasionally, we may obtain Personal Information about you from other sources. For example, we may hire a third party data aggregator or vendor to provide us additional Personal Information about our existing customers (this is known as “data appending”), including Personal Information from your profile or postings on a third party social network. We may also receive Personal Information from third party co-sponsors who we may partner with occasionally to run special promotions or giveaways. We may also receive Personal Information about customers in the event we acquire other companies. We may also receive Personal Information from other methods that are not inconsistent with this Policy.


Q: WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT FROM YOU?

Depending on how you interact with Laura Mercier (online, in-store, on the phone, etc.), we may collect from you various types of Personal Information, which are described in more detail below. In some instances (and unless we say otherwise below), we may combine one type of Personal Information with another type of Personal Information, and store them together in our records. In all cases, however, we strive to limit the amount of Personal Information we collect and store to that which is necessary to provide you the relevant services.

PERSONAL CONTACT INFORMATION

This includes any Personal Information that would allow us to personally contact you, such as your name, home or mailing address, phone number, or email address. In some cases, this could include Personal Information that you give us about someone else (for example, if you ask us to ship a Laura Mercier product to a friend).

This Personal Information may also be collected using third party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) that collect data in aggregate (such as number of visits to a particular page or the amount of time spent on a site).

OTHER PERSONAL INFORMATION (DEPENDING ON CONTEXT)

This refers to any other Personal Information that we might need to collect for a specific Laura Mercier form, feature, or other service that you use or request. What this Personal Information might include will vary depending on the method of collection and the specific purpose(s) for which the Personal Information is being collected. Please see the section “How do we use your information?” below for more specific examples.


Q: HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

The following paragraphs describe the various purposes and features for which we might collect and use your Personal Information, and the different types of Personal Information that might be collected for each. Please note that not all of the uses listed below will be relevant to every customer.

ORDER FULFILLMENT

We may collect and use your Personal Information to process and ship your orders, to inform you about the status of your orders, and to follow up with you about your satisfaction with the ordered products. Depending on how you make a purchase (e.g., online, in-store, call center, etc.), this could involve the collection and use of certain personal contact information, payment information, account login information, and/or Personal Information related to your purchase (such as products ordered). This could also involve the ongoing storage of your payment information to allow for easier checkout on future purchases.

Please note that there are many independent e-commerce sites that sell Laura Mercier products but that are not controlled or operated by Laura Mercier. Because these sites may have different privacy and security practices than we do, we recommend that you read their privacy policies before making any purchases on those sites.

ACCOUNT MAINTENANCE

We may use your Personal Information to maintain your accounts with us, including administering any customer loyalty or rewards programs associated with such accounts. This typically involves the use of the information that was originally collected to set up your account (e.g., personal contact information, payment information, account login information, demographic information, etc.).

CUSTOMER SERVICE

We may collect and use your Personal Information to provide you customer service, including responses to your inquiries. This typically requires the collection and use of certain personal contact information (such as your name, email address) and information regarding the reason for your inquiry (e.g., order status, technical issue, product question, general question, etc.). Customer service may be provided through various forms of communication, such as email correspondence and call center support.

PRODUCT IMPROVEMENT AND CUSTOMIZATION

We may collect and use your Personal Information so we can constantly improve our products, tailor them to your needs, and come up with new product ideas. This mostly involves the collection and use of demographic information and customer feedback.

PERSONALIZED PRODUCT RECOMMENDATIONS

We may use your Personal Information to provide you with Laura Mercier product recommendations, offers, and rewards that are tailored to your interests and profile. This mostly involves the use of your previous order history (including online, boutique, and call center purchases), as well as certain demographic information (such as your favorite look, unique facial attributes, birth date, etc.).

CONTESTS AND PROMOTIONS

We may collect and use your Personal Information to administer a contest, sweepstakes, giveaway, competition, or other similar marketing campaign or promotion. These events typically require the collection and use of personal contact information (for prize fulfillment), limited demographic information (for eligibility), and, in some cases, customer-generated content. Some promotions with customer-generated content or a social networking component will be run on third party social networks such as Facebook (e.g., on Laura Mercier’ Facebook fan page or application). To comply with sweepstakes laws, we may publish or share limited Personal Information about promotion winners (such as name and city of residence). For more information about our contests and other promotions, please see the official rules or details posted with each promotion.

MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS

We may collect and use your Personal Information to send you marketing communications, such as email communications, mobile messages (including text and/or push notifications), and postal mailings. These communications may inform you about new products, store events, special discounts and coupons, beauty tips, and other news and special offers. On occasion, these communications may also contain information or offers about third party products.

Sending you marketing communications mostly requires the collection and use of certain personal contact information and/or demographic information. In some instances (such as for mobile messages), this may involve the use of technical information or precise geo-location information obtained from your mobile device. This allows us to send you messages directly to your mobile device, including offers and coupons based on your location.

You can always opt-out from receiving marketing communications either by following the unsubscribe instructions provided in each such communications or by updating your device settings for mobile messages. If you have an online account with us, you may be given the option to change some of your communication preferences under the relevant “My Account” section of our site or by calling Customer Service. Please note that even if you opt-out from receiving marketing communications, you may still receive other communications from us, such as order confirmations, notifications about account activities (e.g., account confirmations, password changes, website community postings, etc.), and other important announcements (e.g., product recalls, privacy policy changes, etc.).

WEBSITE PERSONALIZATION AND CONVENIENCE

We may collect and use your Personal Information to personalize your experience and save you time when you visit our websites and applications. This is typically done through the use of automated technologies (such as cookies) that collect and remember certain account login information, technical information, and/or previous website usage information. For example, we might remember your login ID or username so you can quickly login the next time you visit our site or so you can easily retrieve the items you previously placed in your shopping cart. Based on this type of Personal Information, we might also show you specific Laura Mercier content or offers that are more relevant to your interests.

WEBSITE COMMUNITY FEATURES

We may collect and use your Personal Information to give you access to our website community features, such as features that may allow you to upload and share ratings, reviews, questions/answers, stories, pictures, videos, or other content. This typically involves the collection, use, and (in some instances) public display of certain personal contact information, account login information, demographic information, and/or customer-generated content. Because these types of features are “communal” in nature, Personal Information you post in these areas may be visible to others. Please use caution when using these features or uploading content to a Laura Mercier site or application. For some community features, you may have the ability to control whether some parts of your profile can be seen by others and whether we send you notifications about certain community activities (like the fact that one of your questions has been answered). To access these settings, go to the “My Account” section of our site and login to the relevant community account. For community features that are integrated with third party social networks such as Facebook, see separate section on “Third party social networking” below.

WEBSITE VIRAL FEATURES (E.G., TELL-A-FRIEND)

Where permissible under applicable law, we may request and use your Personal Information so you can use our website viral features, such as tell-a-friend. These features allow you to easily share certain Laura Mercier news, product information, promotions, wish list items, or other content with family members and friends. These features typically require the collection and use of certain personal contact information (such as email addresses and names) so that the selected message or content can be delivered to the proper recipients. In some instances, this Personal Information may be stored in our records so we can track and reward our customers for their referrals. For tell-a-friend or other viral features offered by third party social networks (such as Facebook “Share” and “Like” features), see separate paragraph on “Third party social networking” below.

THIRD PARTY SOCIAL NETWORKING

We may collect and use your Personal Information when you interact with third party social networking features, such as Facebook Connect, Facebook Like ((https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/previous), Pinterest (https://policy.pinterest.com/en/privacy-policy), and Instagram (https://help.instagram.com/519522125107875/?helpref=uf_share). These tools may be embedded into our sites or applications for the purpose of running contests, allowing you to share content (such as beauty tips, articles, stories, etc.), allowing you to sign up for certain Laura Mercier accounts, or for other stated purposes. If you use these tools, we may have the ability to obtain certain Personal Information about you from your social networking profile (see the section “Social network information” above). You can learn more about how these features work, and the profile data we may obtain about you, by visiting the website of the relevant third party social network.

THIRD PARTY ONLINE ADVERTISING

We may allow third party ad networks, such as Facebook and Google, to collect and use your Personal Information to show you ads that are targeted to reach people (or people similar to people) who have visited our website or are identified in one or more of our databases ("Matched Ads"), including Laura Mercier ads on our sites or on other sites. This is done by Laura Mercier uploading a customer list to the third party ad network or incorporating a pixel from the third party ad network on our website, and the third party ad network matching common factors between our data and their data. Some of these ads may entice you to come back and revisit our site for new offers and promotions. This type of advertising typically involves an ad network collecting and tracking certain technical information (such as your IP address) and website usage information (such as your browsing history) on our sites and across many other sites on the Internet. To opt-out of receiving Matched Ads, please contact the applicable third party ad network, or you can opt-out from this type of third party tracking at any time by going to: https://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp. If we use Facebook Custom Audiences to serve Matched Ads on Facebook services, you should be able to hover over the box in the right corner of such Facebook ads and find out how to opt-out. We are not responsible for such third party ad network’s failure to comply with your opt-out instructions.

OTHER GENERAL PURPOSES (E.G., WEBSITE SECURITY, INTERNAL RESEARCH)

We may collect and use your Personal Information for other general business purposes, such as to maintain the day-to-day operation and security of our websites and applications and to conduct internal marketing and demographic studies. These activities mostly require the collection and use of certain Personal Information, demographic information, technical computer information, website usage information, and customer feedback.

This is when we may need to share your Personal Information for law enforcement or other legal purposes. This type of sharing may be necessary in connection with a lawsuit, claim or investigation, governmental inquiry, court order, enforcement of legal rights (e.g., contract terms, intellectual property rights, etc.), safety issue, or other similar legal or security matter. Sharing your Personal Information for these reasons is not a regular event, but could arise from time to time. We will strive to limit the types and amount of Personal Information we may need to share for legal purposes to that which is reasonably necessary.

BUSINESS TRANSFERS (E.G., SALE OR ACQUISITION OF COMPANY)

We may share (or receive) Personal Information about you, including personal contact information, in the event of an acquisition, merger, sale, corporate restructuring, bankruptcy, or other similar event that involves Laura Mercier or its parent or affiliated companies.

Laura Mercier uses reasonable efforts to ensure that your Personal Information is kept as accurate, complete and up to date as possible.

Q: HOW LONG DO WE RETAIN YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION AND HOW DO WE DISPOSE OF IT?

Laura Mercier will not retain Personal Information longer than is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements and, where required for us to assert or defend against legal claims, until the end of the relevant retention period or until the claims in question have been settled. As this purpose varies depending upon the Personal Information involved, we invite you to contact our CPO for any inquiries pertaining specifically to you.

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period we will securely destroy your Personal Information in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and with our document retention policy.

Q: HOW DO WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We use a variety of standard methods (described below) to keep customer Personal Information confidential and secure. Please note, however, that these protections do not apply to any Personal Information you choose to share in public areas such as our website community features or other social areas.

SECURE OPERATING ENVIRONMENTS

We store your Personal Information in secure operating environments that are protected from the public and that we only allow authorized Laura Mercier employees and agents/contractors to access on a need-to-know basis.

ENCRYPTION FOR PAYMENT INFORMATION

We use industry-standard encryption to provide greater protection for sensitive financial information, such as your credit card information or other payment information, when such information is sent to us over the web. For example, encryption is used when you make payments through our online store, as well as if you choose to have your payment information stored with us for future online purchases.

OTHER SECURITY MEASURES

In addition to the methods above, we may take other measures to protect your Personal Information, depending on the sensitivity of the data and other considerations (such as how the information is collected and where it is stored). These measures may include (among other things) additional access restrictions, password requirements, physical protections (e.g., secure data centers, etc.), and employee training.

MEASURES YOU CAN TAKE

Despite all of our efforts, no security safeguards or standards are guaranteed to provide 100% security. It is also important for you to play a role in keeping your Personal Information safe and secure. When signing up for an online account, please be sure to choose an account password that is hard for others to guess and never to reveal it to anyone else. If you use a shared or public computer, never choose to have your login ID or password remembered and make sure to log out of your account every time you leave the computer.
