Hello Eyes is committed to working to protect your privacy. This Privacy Policy lets you know how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information about you when you interact with Hello Eyes through our website, however accessed, (“Website”) or mobile applications (“App”) (which we will refer to together as the “Site”) to use or obtain any of our products or services (the “Services”). This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect through the Site, how we use it, to whom we disclose it, the choices you have with respect to such collection, use and disclosure, and how you may access and correct your personal information. If you have questions about anything in our Privacy Policy, please contact us.

This Privacy Policy also sets forth our privacy practices with respect to any Apps or Services made available to you by us or our affiliates that link to this Privacy Policy. If a separate privacy policy applies to a specific App or third party provided service (which may include third party services that are utilized by or accessible through an App or Service), we will indicate that by posting that specific privacy policy, rather than this Privacy Policy, with respect to that App or third party provided service. If you have questions about which policy applies to the personal information you have submitted, please do not hesitate to contact us.

By using our Services, you acknowledge that the privacy practices described in this Privacy Policy will apply to you. If you do not agree with the privacy practices described in this Privacy Policy, please do not use our Site or our Services.  

Personal information we collect

“Personal information” means information about an identifiable individual as described under Canadian privacy laws. Generally, personal information does not include any business contact information that is solely used to communicate with you in relation to your employment, business or profession, such as your name, position name or title, work address, work telephone number, work fax number or work e-mail address.   
The type of personal information we collect from you varies, depending on the way you use our Services. We collect personal information about you in the ways described below. 

Personal information you provide to us

When you use our Site or Services, we collect personal information that you choose to share with us. This information may include: 

• Name
• Address
• Email address
• Telephone number
• Credit or debit card information
• Contact or glasses prescription information, and photos thereof
• Eyecare provider information
• Insurance information

We also collect any additional personal information you choose to provide to us. 

Social media information: If you use the option to log in with social media we will receive the information included in your public profile, such as your social media handle, your gender, age range, country, and language. 

Employment application information: We collect personal information such as your name, address, e-mail, and phone number when you apply for employment with us through the Site. In addition, we may collect information relating to your education and employment history when you submit that information as part of an employment application. Not all requested information is required, however, and we specifically indicate what information is required in order to submit your employment application. 

Geolocation information: Our App may utilize location services on your mobile device to collect and use location data, including the real-time geographic location of your device. If you consent to the App’s utilization of location services, we may use GPS, Bluetooth, your device’s unique identifier, and/or your IP Address, along with Wi-Fi and cell tower locations, and other technologies to determine your device’s geolocation. This location data is utilized to initiate notifications or deliver services requested by you. We will collect geolocation data only if you consent, and you can determine and choose whether the location services will be always running or only when the App is in use through your settings on your mobile device. You may choose to disable location services through our App, but if you do so, you will not receive any notifications or services that require a geolocation. Most mobile devices provide users with the ability to disable location services. These controls are generally located in the device’s settings menu. You can also contact your mobile service carrier or your device manufacturer for more information on disabling location services.

Aggregated or anonymized information

We may use your personal information to create aggregate or anonymized data. Aggregated or anonymized data is not considered personal information because it cannot be used to identify you. We use such data for our own purposes and may also share such data with third parties, such as advertisers. We do not limit these third-parties from using, selling, licensing, distributing, or disclosing aggregate or anonymized data for their own purposes.

How we use cookies and other tracking technologies

We and our service providers use cookies and other technologies, such as web beacons, web storage, and unique advertising identifiers, to collect information about your activity, browser, and device. Cookies are small amounts of data which are sent to your browser from a website’s computers and stored on your computer or device. We use information collected through cookies and other tracking technologies to:

• remember your preferences and allowing you to enter your username less frequently
• uniquely identify each user session when you access the services
• compile aggregated statistics to analyze how the Services are used
• present you and communicate to you information that is targeted to your interests, including our content presented on another website and across devices
• measure the effectiveness of our sites, services, content, communications and advertising, including by placing web beacons (sometimes called single-pixel gifs) which identify which emails and links have been opened by recipients

Most web browsers are set to accept cookies and similar tracking technologies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to disable cookies on your browser, but doing so may prevent you from using the full features of the Services. You can use controls in your internet browser to limit how the websites you visit are able to use cookies and to withdraw your consent by clearing or blocking cookies.  
We may let third parties use cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies on our Sites. They may collect information about how you use our Sites and other websites and online services over time and across different services. This information may be used to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content, and better understand your online activity.

Interest-based advertising

We may engage in interest-based advertising (also known as targeted or behavioural advertising) in connection with your use of our Site. Other companies may use information collected on our Site to deliver advertisements on behalf of us or other companies, targeted to your interests and preferences, on our Site or on other websites or applications you may visit, on your various devices, or on your social media feed and to gauge their effectiveness.

You can understand which third parties have currently enabled cookies for your browser or mobile device and how to opt-out of some of those cookies by accessing the Network Advertising Initiative’s website at http://optout.networkadvertising.org/#!/ or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s website at http://optout.aboutads.info/#!/ . For more information on mobile specific opt-out choices, please visit http://www.networkadvertising.org/mobile-choices and from your mobile device.

On your mobile device you may have features that allow you to opt out of some targeted advertising (“Limit Ad Tracking” on iOS devices or “Opt out of Interest-Based Ads” on Android devices). To learn more about how these opt-out features work, please review your device settings.

Even if you disable the tracking, keep in mind that you may still receive interest-based advertising based on information that had been previously disclosed and you may still receive advertising from us that is not based on your interests and preferences.

How we use Adobe Analytics

For web analytics, we use Adobe Experience Cloud solutions, such as Adobe Analytics, provided by Adobe Systems Inc. (“Adobe”). Adobe may set cookies on your browser or mobile device or read cookies that are already there to collect information, such as clicks you make when visiting our Site.

You can learn more about your choices for opting out of having your Site visits tracked by Adobe, on our behalf, by visiting Adobe Privacy Choices. For more information about the privacy policies of Adobe, please refer to Adobe Experience Cloud Privacy.

How we protect your personal information

We take reasonable precautions to protect your personal information. We have implemented physical, organizational, contractual, and technological security measures in an effort to protect your personal information from loss or theft, unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. For example:

• we train our employees and agents on the importance of safeguarding personal information
• we restrict access to your personal information to those employees or agents who need access for authorized purposes
• we protect personal information in electronic form using technological means such as firewalls, access controls, and encryption

Please keep in mind that the Internet is not a 100% secure medium for communication, and despite these measures, we cannot guarantee that your personal information will always remain private when using our Services. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

We may also require that you assist us in safeguarding your personal information. For example, if you create an account through our Site, you should use a unique and strong password and not share your password with others. If you have reason to believe that your personal information is no longer secure, please contact us immediately.

Accessing and updating your personal information

We expect you to supply us with updates to your personal information, when required. We will not routinely update your personal information unless such a process is necessary.

You can access and correct most of your account information on our Site by clicking on “My Account”. You may make a request to access, correct or delete other personal information that we have collected, used or disclosed by contacting us, and we will respond to such requests in accordance with Canadian privacy laws.

To protect your privacy, before we respond to your request, we may we may ask you to verify your identity or provide additional information. We will try to respond to such requests for free, but if it would require a disproportionate effort on our part, we may charge a fee. We will disclose the fee before we comply with your request. We may reject an access, correction or deletion request for a number of reasons, including, for example, if the request risks the privacy of other users, requires technical efforts that are disproportionate to the request, is repetitive, or is unlawful.

 You can stop receiving email communications – such as our newsletter – from us by clicking on the “unsubscribe link” provided in the email communications. You can also change your communication preferences by accessing “My Account” or by contacting us. We will retain your email address in order to be able to abide by your opt out choice.
