Privacy Policy
At Ideal Vision Center, we’re all about helping you see things a little more clearly. And we believe that you have a right to know what information we collect from you and how we protect your privacy. So we’ve created this Privacy Policy to let you know what to expect when you interact with us. This Privacy Policy applies to your use of our retail locations, as well as any of our website features that contain a link to this Privacy Policy (together the retail locations and our website are referred to as the “Services”).
By using our Services, you agree to the collection, use, disclosure, and procedures this Privacy Policy describes. Please note that this Privacy Policy does not apply to third party websites (“Third Party Services”), such as Facebook, Instagram, and Google+, that we do not own or control, even if you access them through our Services. We try to work only with Third Party Services that share our respect for your privacy, but we cannot take responsibility for their practices, content, or privacy policies. We encourage you to carefully review the privacy policies of any Third Party Services you access so that you know how they will collect, use, and share your information.
If you have any questions, you may reach out to us at hello@idealvision.ph.
- What Information does Ideal Vision Center Collect?
Information you provide us:
When you create an account. When you create an account with us, you provide a name, email address, address, birth date, gender and password.
When you make a purchase or use our Services. If you make a purchase, we request information from you to facilitate the transaction and get you the goods. This information may include (i) your shipping address, (ii) prescription information, including any images of prescriptions you may provide to us, and (iii) information about the products you purchase. If you provide us with an image of your prescription, we obtain any information that appears on the prescription form. You may also provide us with information when you apply for a job through our Jobs page.
When you make a purchase, we ask you to provide payment information, which may include payment card information (such as credit card number, type, and expiration date), billing address, and shipping address. Our payment processor, which is required by credit card issuers to meet specific security requirements, will collect, store, and process your credit card and other payment information on our behalf using industry-standard security measures. We do not store any payment card information.
When you contact us. We do everything possible to make sure you have an exceptional shopping experience. If you contact us in person, by phone (calling or texting), email, instant message (including Facebook Messenger), live chat, through social media, or by some other means, we may keep a record of your contact information and the content of the communication for later reference. When we send you emails, we may track whether you open them to learn how to deliver a better customer experience and improve our Services. We receive responses to any survey that you choose to complete for us.
Information we collect from third parties:
Information from third party services. Some parts of our Services can be linked to other accounts you have with Third Party Services (“Third Party Accounts”) or you may be able to register for an account on our Services with your Third Party Account. If you connect a Third Party Account to our Services or interact with us through a Third Party Account, we may receive information about you, including your Third Party Account profile information and your photo, and your use of the Third Party Account (for example, if you select an Ideal Vision Center product to purchase through the account). If you mention us through your Third Party Account, we may collect publicly available information and content related to your comment. If you wish to limit the information available to us, you should visit the privacy settings of your Third Party Accounts to learn about your options.
Information from other third parties. We may collect information about you from other third parties, including demographic information, and combine this information with other information we collect about you.
Information we automatically collect:
Web logs and usage information. We record certain information and store it in log files when you interact with our Services. This information may include device and browser information, internet protocol (IP) address, URLs of referring/exit pages, and search terms.
Information from cookies and other technologies. Like most websites, our Services may incorporate technology such as “pixel tags” and “cookies” that allow us and our service providers to collect information about your actions on our Services. Our service providers may collect information about your online activities over time and across different online services. Cookies (not to be confused with the sugary morsel) are small files that web servers may place on your computer when you visit a website. You may be able to set your web browser to reject cookies entirely or require that it request permission from you before accepting each new cookie. You can also delete cookies from your web browser once you leave a website.
Information from in-store technologies. We may also collect information when you are visiting our stores. Like most retailers, we have in-store video cameras and customer / patient records that, in addition to serving a security function, help us understand customer behavior within our physical spaces.
