We may change our privacy practices and this Privacy Policy at any time and multiple times because of changes in relevant and applicable legal or regulatory requirements, our business practices, or in our attempts to better serve your needs and those of our other customers. At the time of such changes to our privacy practices and this Privacy Policy, a revised Privacy Policy will be posted on the Site.

 

Thank you for visiting our website www.simpaticodentalstudio.com (collectively, “Simpatico Dental Studio”, “The Site”). The Site is operated by Simpatico Dental Studio, Inc (collectively, “Simpatico Dental Studio,” “we,” “our,”or “us”). At Simpatico Dental Studio we are serious about protecting your privacy. We understand your concerns with regard to how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This Privacy Policy describes what information we collect about you, how we collect it, how we use it, with whom we may share it, and what choices you have regarding it. This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and is a part of our Terms and Conditions. By accessing and using the Site, you agree that you have read and understand this Privacy Policy, and you accept and consent to the privacy practices (and any uses and disclosures of information about you) that are described in this Privacy Policy.

 

What Information Do We Collect?

In order to purchase and return our products, we will create an account for you. At this stage, we collect personally identifiable information about you (“Personal Information”), which may include, but is not limited to your: first name, last name, business name, license number, email address, business address, telephone and/or mobile number, shipping address, billing address and payment information i.e. bank accounts or credit card information. You should know that we may also receive and may store all personal information (whether written or oral) that you provide to us. This includes personal information provided to us through any means, including, without limitation, through our Site, via e-mail, over the telephone, and through a social media service (for example Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest).

If you do not provide all the required information we reserve the right to choose whether we will open or not an account for you. An account is a prerequisite to engage in commercial transactions with our customers.

As with many other Web sites, the Web servers used to operate the Site may collect certain data pertaining to you and the equipment and communications method that you use to access the Internet and the Site.

Your information will be stored and processed in the United States; other countries may not have the same data protection laws as the United States. If you are entering and using the Site from another country and submitting information to Simpatico Dental Studio, your personal information and all related data pertaining to you or your activity will be transferred to the United States where it will be protected as described in this Privacy Policy. You consent to any such transfer of information outside of your country.

For security reasons and to confirm the integrity of our data, we may combine components of this data with other sources of information which may identify you. Unless otherwise described in this Privacy Policy or our Terms and Conditions, such identifying information will be used for our internal business purposes. In addition, the information we collect may reveal such things as the Internet protocol (“IP”) address assigned to your computer, specific pages that you accessed on the Site or immediately prior to visiting the Site, and the length of time you spent at the Site. The purposes for which this information is collected and used include facilitating Site operation and system administration, generating aggregate, non-identifiable statistical information, monitoring and analyzing Site traffic and usage patterns, and improving the content and content delivery with regard to the Site and the online media, content, materials, opportunities and services that we describe or make available on the Site. Like many other Web sites, our Site may at any time, in our discretion, use “cookies” or other tracking mechanisms to help us recognize visitors when they return to the Site or as they move among the different portions of the Site or to collect personal or individually identifiable information. Collectively, the type of information described in this paragraph is referred to as “Usage Data” and together with your Personal Information, as “Collected Information.”

 

The Site provides you with several opportunities to agree to receive communications about special offers or programs from us, and any of our affiliated brands or divisions (“Opt-In”). If you provide your email address via a channel that does not include a mechanism for you to affirmatively Opt-In, such as by email, you agree that by providing your email address, you are completing an Opt-In and that you will be responsible for opting-out of receiving any future communications about special offers or programs by clicking on the link provided at the bottom of each email communication (each an “Opt-Out”).

 

Special Consideration for Payment Information

If you provide credit card information to complete a purchase, it is our policy to use party payment processing systems that comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS), which is an industry wide security standard designed to protect the confidentiality and security of your credit card information, by encryption using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and storage with AES-256 encryption. We charge process most credit cards offline by manually inputting data into our merchant processing terminal. We reserve to enable our site’s capability to process billing through the client portal at our discretion; although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards. If we use a third party payment processor, your credit card information will also be subject to that processor’s privacy policy in addition to ours. 

Please read the privacy policy on the website of any payment processor that you are directed to regarding the use, storage and protection of your credit card information before submitting any credit card information.

 

All information that you provide to our third party payment processor or us must be accurate, current and complete. In the event of a dispute, we may issue you with a provisional credit to your card or an account credit until the dispute is resolved. If we issue a provisional credit and the dispute is resolved and the charges were correct, we shall recharge your debit or credit card to reverse this provisional credit. If we issue an account credit and the dispute is resolved in your favor, we will convert the account credit into a full refund on your debit card or credit card at your request. You expressly consent to this reversal if you falsely or incorrectly dispute a charge. If you wish to dispute a charge by mail or telephone please contact us at info@simpaticodentalstudio.com. If we elect at any time to charge any convenience fee for making a payment via a debit card, credit card, or electronic check, these fees will be stated at the time of payment before you finalize your charge. In the event of an unauthorized charge using a debit card or electronic check, please consult your bank’s rules regarding refunds and reversals. Simpatico Dental Studios complies with all legal requirements of your State’s applicable laws regarding providing refunds for unauthorized charges. When you make a charge through our site or we process one offline, we shall display a completed charge screen or alternately provide a payment receipt. You should print or save this electronic receipt for your records.

You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use any credit cards, debit cards or other payment means used to initiate any transaction.
