SkinBase Privacy Policy

Your Privacy Matters

Information is collected at several points from users of the SkinBase site. SkinBase is the sole owner of this information and will not sell or disclose it to any third party.

How We Collect Information

Cookies

SkinBase uses cookies to help make each user's visit easier and more interactive. By storing a cookie, the user does not have to log in to the site each time they visit and can use features such as the messageboard and online chat. Cookies are in no way linked to the personal information disclosed at signup.

IP Logging

SkinBase also logs IP addresses to help administer the website and track user's actions on the website. These details do not contain any personally identifiable information.

Sharing of Information

SkinBase will only share information with third parties if required to do so by law, or if by doing so we can protect the SkinBase website and/or its users. If you do not wish for others to know your personal details (for example - name and email address), it is recommended that you do not apply for membership.

External Links & Safety

Third-Party Links

SkinBase links to several other websites. SkinBase does not control the content of any outside websites and cannot be held accountable for their content. We also are not in control of the privacy policies of these sites and recommend that all members carefully read the privacy policies of other websites that collect personally identifiable information.

Children Under the Age of 13

Important: As SkinBase is a general-audience website, we cannot allow children under the age of 13 to sign up for membership (in accordance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act). We ask that parents instead sign up for membership and monitor their children's activity on the website.

Advertising & Analytics

Third-Party Advertising

We allow third-party companies to serve ads and/or collect certain anonymous information when you visit our website. These companies may use non-personally identifiable information (e.g., click stream information, browser type, time and date, subject of advertisements clicked or scrolled over) during your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of greater interest to you.

These companies typically use a cookie or third party web beacon to collect this information. To learn more about this behavioral advertising practice or to opt-out of this type of advertising, you can visit networkadvertising.org.

Policy Updates & Contact

Changes to the Privacy Policy

If we make changes to this policy, we will let members know by posting mention of the changes on the homepage of the SkinBase website. If we decide to use the personal details collected at membership signup (or during any other stage of a user's onsite activity) in any manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will let the user know via email. Users will be given a choice as to whether they want their information used in a different manner.
