WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DOES NASSIFMD COLLECT?
The information we gather from users enables us to personalize and improve the Service and any offerings. We collect the following types of information from our users:
Personal Information You Provide to Us: In order to use certain features of the Service or make purchases, you may be required to provide personal information about yourself. We receive and may store any information you enter via the Service or which is provided to us in any other way. Some of the information we collect and store could be personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) which may include your address, name, physical or mailing address, email address, phone number, credit card and/or other payment information, IP address, browser information, use information, username, password, and any other information necessary for us to provide the Service.
You can choose not to provide us with certain information, but then you may not be able to take advantage of our features. The Personal Information you provide is used for such purposes as answering questions, sending product updates, and communicating with you about NassifMD's products and Service, including specials and new features or offerings.
Personal Information Collected Automatically:
- We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with the Service. NassifMD automatically receives and records information on our server logs from your browser including your IP address, cookie information, and the page you requested.
- Generally, the Service automatically collects usage information, such as the numbers and frequency of visitors to the Service and its components. We only use this data in aggregate form, that is, as a statistical measure, and not in a manner that would identify you personally. This type of aggregate data enables us to figure out how often users use parts of the Service so that we can make the Service appealing to as many users as possible and improve the Service. As part of this use of information, we may provide aggregate information to our partners about how our users, collectively, use the Service. We may share this type of statistical data so that our partners also understand how often people use the Service, so that they, too, may provide you with an optimal online experience. Again, NassifMD never discloses aggregate information to a partner in a manner that would identify you personally.
E-mail Communications: We often receive a confirmation when you open an email from NassifMD if your computer supports this type of program. NassifMD uses this confirmation to help us make emails more interesting and helpful. We also compare our user list to lists received from other companies, in an effort to avoid sending unnecessary messages to our users. When you receive e-mail from NassifMD, you can opt out of receiving further e-mails by following the included instructions to unsubscribe.
We partner with Microsoft Clarity and Microsoft Advertising to capture how you use and interact with our website through behavioral metrics, heatmaps, and session replay to improve and market our products/services. Website usage data is captured using first and third-party cookies and other tracking technologies to determine the popularity of products/services and online activity. Additionally, we use this information for site optimization, fraud/security purposes, and advertising. For more information about how Microsoft collects and uses your data, visit the Microsoft Privacy Statement."
WHAT ABOUT COOKIES?
- Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and tell us how and when pages in our Site are visited and by how many people. Please note that we may use cookies to enhance visitors' experiences, to learn more about their use of the Service and to improve quality.
- Most browsers have an option for turning off the cookie feature, which will prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, as well as (depending on the sophistication of your browser software) allowing you to decide on acceptance of each new cookie in a variety of ways. We strongly recommend that you leave the cookies activated, however, because cookies enable you to take advantage of some of the Service’s most attractive features.
WHAT ABOUT SMS/MMS MESSAGING?
We respect your privacy. We will only use information you provide through the Service to transmit your mobile messages and respond to you, if necessary. This includes, but is not limited to, sharing information with platform providers, phone companies, and other vendors who assist us in the delivery of mobile messages. WE DO NOT SELL, RENT, LOAN, TRADE, LEASE, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER FOR PROFIT ANY PHONE NUMBERS OR CUSTOMER INFORMATION COLLECTED THROUGH THE SERVICE TO ANY THIRD PARTY. Nonetheless, we reserve the right at all times to disclose any information as necessary to satisfy any law, regulation or governmental request, to avoid liability, or to protect our rights or property. When you complete forms online or otherwise provide us information in connection with the Service, you agree to provide accurate, complete, and true information. You agree not to use a false or misleading name or a name that you are not authorized to use. If, in our sole discretion, we believe that any such information is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, or you have opted into the Service for an ulterior purpose, we may refuse you access to the Service and pursue any appropriate legal remedies.

This Privacy Policy is strictly limited to the Service and has no effect on any other privacy policy(ies) that may govern the relationship between you and us in other contexts.
WILL NASSIFMD SHARE ANY OF THE PERSONAL INFORMATION IT RECEIVES?
Personal Information about our users is an integral part of our business. We neither rent nor sell your Personal Information to anyone. We share your Personal Information only as described below. We may disclose aggregated information about our users, and information that does not identify any individual, without restriction.
Affiliated Businesses We Do Not Control: We anticipate that we may become affiliated with a variety of businesses and work closely with them. In certain situations, these businesses may sell items to you through the Service. In other situations, NassifMD may provide the Service, or sell products jointly with affiliated businesses. You can easily recognize when an affiliated business is associated with your transaction, and we will share your Personal Information that is related to such transactions with that affiliated business.
Contractors: We engage with other companies and individuals to perform tasks on our behalf and may need to share your information with them to provide products or the Service to you. Unless we tell you differently, NassifMD’s suppliers do not have any right to use your Personal Information we share with them beyond what is necessary to assist us. You hereby consent to our sharing of your Personal Information for the above purposes.
User profiles: User profile information including user’s name, email address, and other information you enter ("User Submissions") may be displayed to other users to facilitate user interaction within the Service. Email addresses are used to add new User Submissions to user profiles and to communicate through User Submissions. Users' email addresses will not be directly revealed to other users by NassifMD, except, when the user is "connected" to another user via a shared group membership, or an invitation, or if the user has chosen to include their email address in their user profile.
Communication in response to User Submissions: As part of the Service, you will receive from NassifMD email and other communication relating to your User Submissions. You acknowledge and agree that by posting such User Submissions, NassifMD may send you email and other communication that it determines in its sole discretion relate to your User Submissions.
Promotional Offers: We may send offers to you on behalf of other businesses. However, when we do so, we do not give the other business your name and address. If you do not wish to receive these offers, please send an email with your request to customercare@drnassifskincare.
Business Transfers: NassifMD may go through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of our assets. In these types of transactions, user information is typically one of the business assets that are transferred. Moreover, if NassifMD, or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that NassifMD goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third-party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of NassifMD may continue to use your Personal Information as set forth in this Privacy Policy or as subject to the acquirer’s policy.
Protection of NassifMD and Others: We may release Personal Information when we believe in good faith that release is necessary to comply with the law; enforce or apply our conditions of use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of NassifMD, our employees, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. You acknowledge and consent to such disclosure.
Compliance with the Agreement: We may use Personal Information to the extent it is required to enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other Agreements, including for billing and collection purposes.
With Your Consent: Except as set forth above, you will be notified when your Personal Information may be shared with third-parties and will be able to prevent the sharing of this information.
IS PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT ME SECURE?
Your Personal Information associated with your account is protected for your privacy and security. We have implemented measures designed to secure your Personal Information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure.

Unfortunately, be aware that the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. NassifMD cannot guarantee the security of user account information and unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of your user information at any time.
