Lush Model Privacy Policy

This privacy policy sets out how Lush Model uses and protects any information that you give Lush Model when you use this website.

Lush Model is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Should we ask you to provide certain information by which you can be identified when using this website, then you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully which should be read together with our website Terms of Service.

This policy is effective from 8th October 2007.

1. What we collect

Information is gathered in two ways: (1) indirectly (for example, through our website's technology); and (2) directly (for example, when you provide information on various pages of the website).

One example of information we collect indirectly is through Internet access logs. We use access logs generated by our web servers to analyse website usage and statistics but the files do not identify any personal information. Log file analysis helps us to understand usage patterns on our website and to make improvements to our service.

We collect information directly from you in a number of ways, one of which is through the use of cookies. We use cookies for security purposes so that you can access and edit your registered details and to remember you when you visit this website. (see section 4. How we use cookies)

We also collect information when you voluntarily submit it to us. On our website, we provide you with the opportunity to register for various services. If you decide to register we may collect information including, but not limited to:

- your name and date of birth
- contact information including email address
- demographic information such as location and gender
- other information relevant to your profile and preferences

We only collect such information when you choose to supply it to us and never collect sensitive information about you without your consent.

2. Use of your information

We require this information to understand your needs, provide you with a better service and primarily to publically display your profile to both registered and non-registered users of the website. As such, users of the website are able to contact you by email and other electronic means that may be used to send you unsolicited communications. Lush Model accepts no responsibility for this.

We may contact you by email or by other electronic means with offers of goods and services or information that may be of interest to you. If you do not want to receive marketing information from us you can notify us of this as part of the registration process. You can stop receiving this information at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions on the correspondence you receive, by amending your marketing preferences, or by contacting us and providing your email address and details of the information you no longer wish to receive.

3. Disclosing your information

We may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or in good-faith believing such action is necessary to comply with the law. We will not sell or otherwise share your personal information with third parties without your consent except in the following instances:

- unless required by applicable law or if we are ordered to do so by a court or other similar body;
- as we may think necessary to protect our legal rights, a registered user or third party, or to prevent personal injury; and/or
- where we are approached by a potential buyer of our business and/or assets or in relation to any joint venture or other business arrangement. In such circumstances we will be able to pass on your personal information to such third party's advisors and to any prospective buyer, as well as to any other relevant parties.

4. How we use cookies

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

The information in a cookie does not contain any personally identifiable information you submit to our website. Cookies help us provide you with a better website. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. However, switching off cookies may restrict your use of the website and/or delay or affect the way in which the website operates.

5. Security

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

The password you provide when registering with the website is encrypted to ensure protection against unauthorised access to your personal information. However, no data transmission over the Internet can be entirely secure, and therefore we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information and/or use of the website. Any information that you send is at your own risk and may be read by others.

6. Where we store your personal information

The personal information that we collect from you may be sent and stored outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"). By registering on the website or sending us your personal information by other means, you are indicating your consent for your personal information to be sent and stored outside the EEA.

Lush Model may change this policy from time to time by updating this page. You should check this page from time to time to ensure that you are happy with any changes.
