How SkinLuxes collects, stores, and protects clinical inquiry and tracking data.
We believe legal terms should answer real questions directly. This policy explains what happens when you submit an intake request, what tracking tags run when you click an ad, and how to exercise your privacy rights under North Carolina, US State, and European standards.
When did this privacy disclosure take effect?
This privacy policy took effect on October 17, 2026. It applies to all clinical booking inquiries, website visitor sessions, and advertising traffic delivered to skinluxes.click on or after that date.
Who operates this site and controls my information?
The data controller for all personal information collected on this website is Skinluxes, trading at skinluxes.click. Our registered clinical facility is located at 130 North Tryon Street, Charlotte, North Carolina 28202, Charlotte, North Carolina, United States.
Clinical practice operations and client record administration are overseen directly by practitioner Casey Finch, LE/LI. You may contact our administrative desk by telephone at +1 (307) 555-3072 or via email at office@skinluxes.click.
What personal data do you actually record?
We only record data necessary to manage clinical aesthetic inquiries and ensure legitimate technical website operation:
- Inquiry Form Submissions (coha4a2.php): Full legal name, telephone number (if provided), email address (if provided), mailing address or ZIP code (if provided), treatment kind, requested clinical specifications, client health notes or medication history, affirmative consent confirmation, and the specific referral source page.
- Technical and Server Transmission Data: The IP address from which the connection originated, browser user-agent string, referring URL, timestamp when the form was rendered on screen, and timestamp when submission occurred.
- Live Support Chat Records (pipe715.php): Clinical chat conversation messages and a locally stored browser authentication token that allows you to return to the active conversation thread.
- Consent Registry: The state of your cookie preference stored strictly in your browser under the local storage key
site_consent_v2. - Advertising Identifiers: Marketing click parameters appended to incoming URLs by paid advertising platforms, specifically gclid (Google Ads), msclkid (Microsoft Advertising), and fbclid (Meta Ads).
We do not create user accounts, require passwords, or store credit card payment details on this site. Our catalogue is strictly inquiry-based; no financial transactions are processed online.
Why do you need this information?
We use the information collected for specific, limited clinical and administrative objectives:
- To evaluate treatment candidacy, verify contraindications (such as recent isotretinoin use, facial injectables, or photosensitizing drugs), and prepare room equipment prior to your arrival.
- To reply to your questions regarding fee bands ($90–$1,880 USD), procedural pass counts, downtime expectations, and available appointment times.
- To maintain server integrity, block automated bot spam, and protect our clinical communication endpoints from unauthorized access.
- To measure the effectiveness of paid advertising campaigns on Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising, and Meta Ads so we do not waste marketing resources.
What are your legal grounds for processing my data?
Under applicable US privacy frameworks and the GDPR for international visitors, we process your information under three clear legal bases:
- Consent: When you check the affirmative consent box on our intake forms, initiate a support chat session, or click "Accept All" on our cookie consent banner. You may withdraw this consent at any time.
- Contractual Necessity: Processing your intake request is necessary to take preparatory steps prior to entering into a professional service agreement for clinical aesthetic treatments in our Charlotte facility.
- Legitimate Interests: Maintaining server security, diagnosing technical errors, preventing fraudulent inquiries, and assessing overall advertising attribution without overriding your fundamental privacy rights.
Which advertising platforms track visits to this site?
This website is an active destination for paid marketing traffic. We run paid campaigns across three specific networks:
- Google Ads: google ads attaches the unique click identifier
gclidto inbound links to measure ad conversions. - Microsoft Advertising: microsoft advertising appends the click identifier
msclkidto evaluate search campaign performance. - Meta Ads: Where campaigns run on Meta platforms (Facebook / Instagram), inbound links carry the identifier
fbclid.
We do not sell personal data to these platforms. They receive diagnostic ad interaction data solely to report campaign performance and attribute clinical inquiries to the corresponding advertisement.
How does Google Consent Mode v2 work on this website?
We operate consent mode under Google Consent Mode v2 standards. By default, before you take any action on our cookie consent banner, all four advertising and analytics consent signals are held in a denied state:
ad_storage='denied'ad_user_data='denied'ad_personalization='denied'analytics_storage='denied'
If you choose to click "Accept All", these signals update to granted for your browsing session. If you click "Decline Non-Essential" or close the banner, these four parameters remain or are explicitly set back to denied. No marketing cookies or personalization identifiers will be stored on your device without your affirmative consent.
