---

## 1. Introduction
Welcome to our website. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy details how we collect, use, and process your personal information when you visit our website, book an appointment, or interact with our digital services.

## 2. Information We Collect
We collect information that identifies or could reasonably be associated with you ("Personal Data"). 

We may collect the following categories of Personal Data:
- **Identifiers:** First and last name, email address, postal address, phone number.
- **Commercial Information:** Products, treatments, or services you have inquired about or purchased.
- **Internet Activity:** Browsing history, IP address, device information, and interactions with our website.
- **Sensitive Data (NDPA):** Under the Nebraska Data Privacy Act, data revealing your medical history, mental or physical health condition, or diagnosis is considered "sensitive data." If we collect this prior to formal clinical intake via web forms, we do so ONLY with your explicit, affirmative, opt-in consent.

## 3. Strict Prohibitions on Sensitive Data
In accordance with the NDPA:
- **We DO NOT process your Sensitive Data** for general marketing or tracking purposes without first obtaining your explicit, separate opt-in consent.
- You have the right to withdraw this consent freely at any time.

## 4. Use of Personal Information
We use the personal information we collect for the following business purposes:
- To provide our aesthetic services and respond to your direct inquiries.
- To process your payments securely.
- To improve our website and customer service.
- To send administrative information and, subject to your consent, marketing communications.

## 5. Your Rights Under the Nebraska Data Privacy Act (NDPA)
If you are a resident of Nebraska, and our business operations align with the guidelines set by the NDPA (effective January 1, 2025), you are granted robust rights regarding your personal data:
- **Broad Applicability:** Uniquely, the NDPA applies to entities doing business in Nebraska regardless of whether they meet standard consumer volume thresholds (such as 35,000 or 100,000 users) or particular revenue percentiles. As long as the business engages in processing personal data and is not strictly classified as a small business under federal SBA definitions, these consumer rights apply.
- **Right to Know/Access:** You have the right to confirm whether we process your personal data and to access such data.
- **Right to Correct:** You have the right to correct inaccuracies in your personal data.
- **Right to Delete:** You have the right to delete personal data provided by or obtained about you.
- **Right to Data Portability:** You have the right to obtain a copy of your personal data in a portable, readily usable format.
- **Right to Opt-Out:** You have the right to opt-out of the processing of your personal data for purposes of targeted advertising, the sale of personal data, or certain profiling practices. We honor recognized Universal Opt-Out Mechanisms (UOOMs).

To exercise these rights, please contact us using the information provided on our contact page. We will authenticate your request and respond promptly.

## 6. Data Security & Breach Notification
We safeguard your personal data through industry-standard administrative, technical, and physical security measures. 
- **Notification Timeframe:** In the event of a security breach involving your computerized, unencrypted personal information, we will notify you in compliance with Nebraska law (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 87-803). Notice will be provided without unreasonable delay following the determination that a breach occurred.

## 7. Exemption for Medical Information
Please note that "protected health information" (PHI) collected by our actual clinic acting as a covered entity governed by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), is subject to specific medical privacy laws that interact with and supersede general website data privacy rules. The broad rights provided by the NDPA generally do not apply to clinical PHI.

If you are a patient receiving medical aesthetic treatments, the privacy of your clinical and health information is governed by our separate Notice of Privacy Practices (NPP).

## 8. Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to comply with changes in state or federal regulations. The updated version will be indicated by an updated "Effective Date."

*Effective Date: January 1, 2025*
