WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND WHY

When you book a treatment or shop online with The Fuel Stop, we collect your data in a variety of ways, including when you choose to share it with us.

When you purchase at a The Fuel Stop shop, we may ask you for the following information to contact you about your purchase or send you a receipt via email. We do not issue paper receipts. You have the option to agree with or deny sharing this information with us.

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Phone number

When you book a facial or make a purchase on The Fuel Stop’s website, we will ask for the following information. This information is necessary to collect payment, process & ship your order, and to communicate order status.

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Shipping & Billing Address
  • Phone number
  • Payment details

Booking a facial will result in creating an account in Booker, our third-party booking software, and shopping online will result in creating an account via Shopify, our e-commerce provider. If you choose to create an account, we will create a profile containing your order history & stored addresses for easy access. All of your order histories are stored within our system, so creating an account simply provides you with access to that information.

MOBILE MESSAGING

By inputting your mobile number while booking your appointment, you are eligible to receive a text reminder about an upcoming appointment. You may opt-out from receiving these SMS by responding to STOP or by emailing us at contact@thefuelstop.com.

NEWSLETTER

  • Email

  • Geography for localized updates
  • Preferred Topics

You can choose to stop receiving The Fuel Stop emails at any time, by clicking “unsubscribe” at the bottom of any The Fuel Stop marketing email. The Fuel Stop appointment emails (i.e., confirmations, cancellations) and post-treatment review emails (i.e., 5-star rating emails) must be unsubscribed separately from marketing emails.

When you contact us via email or phone, we will ask for information to identify you in our system. This is needed to provide timely assistance. We may also ask for your feedback on shopping or communicating with us to improve our services.

When you visit our website, the following technical information will be collected, in order to protect your data and our website. We also use this information to improve our shopping experience, products and services provided.

  • Your browser type
  • Your operation system
  • Your browse behavior on our website, such as product pages visited
  • Shopping behavior on our website, utilized for delivery of re-marketing and promotional offers

We also use ‘cookies’ to collect data on pages you view on our site, as well as to power the delivery of re-marketing and promotional offers.

ADS ON OTHER SITES

If you choose to give other sites your data (such as Google or Facebook) their rules apply to that data, not ours. We do purchase ads on these sites, so if you have provided them with your data, then you will likely see our ads on these sites. If you do not wish to see these ads, you will have to contact the other sites directly.

WHAT DO WE DO WITH YOUR INFORMATION?

When you book a facial, receive a facial, purchase something from our store or online shop, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you give us such as your name, address and email address.

When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address in order to provide us with information that helps us learn about your browser and operating system. With your permission, we may send you emails about skincare information, new products, and other brand updates.

We may share your data within the Heyday company. We may also share it with others who help us serve you. Because we work with Shopify, we will share your data with Shopify and some supporting companies to help us process data, host our digital channels, process payments, send communications, fulfill orders, or provide us or you with services while shopping with us. These companies are required by law to protect your data and cannot use your data with the exception of helping us provide you with products and services or as allowed by the privacy law and our contracts.

Shopify Inc. uses a combination of data centers and cloud service providers to store your personal data in the United States and Canada. When personal data is transferred to the United States, it is either done so through the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield, for Shopify’s own storage or through contractual data protection addenda (DPAs) with third-party service providers. The EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shields are also considered adequate under the GDPR. Shopify’s Privacy Shield certification statement can be found on PrivacyShield.gov.

When you provide us with personal information to book an appointment, complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only.

By using this site and/or by accepting our policies, you represent that you are above the age of 16. If you are below the age of 16, then a parent or legal guardian must consent on your behalf. If we learn that we have collected any data for someone aged under 16, then we will delete it.

If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, at any time, by contacting us at contact@thefuelstop.com.

DISCLOSURE

We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.

SHOPIFY

Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you. Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage, databases and the general Shopify application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.

PAYMENT

If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Shopify stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.

All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.

SHOPIFY DISCLOSURES TO THIRD PARTIES

Shopify will never independently sell personal data for commercial purposes. However, Shopify does disclose personal data to third parties or allow third parties to access personal data to help provide services—for example, to:

  • Store platform data
  • Operate the forums and other portions of Shopify’s website
  • Respond to and manage support inquiries

Additionally, Shopify may provide personal data, where permitted to prevent, investigate, or respond to:

  • Potential fraud
