PRIVACY POLICY

Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
Société Santé, operated by Confetti Couture Inc. d/b/a Société Santé, together with its affiliates where applicable ("Société Santé," "Company," "we," "our," or "us"), respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect Personal Information when you visit our website, use our online platforms, apply for or maintain a membership, register for or attend events, participate in our member community, submit inquiries, engage with us as a partner or prospective partner, or otherwise interact with our services.
This Privacy Policy applies to our website, partner portal, online community, event registration tools, email communications, and related services (collectively, the "Services").
By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with it, do not use the Services.
2. Our Services and Business Context
Société Santé is a luxury event host, private professional association, and curated networking platform for licensed medical aesthetic professionals and approved commercial partners. Our Services may include Société Dinners, Santé MasterClasses, Santé Summits, members-only experiences, online community access, newsletters, partner engagement opportunities, and related website functionality.
Société Santé is not a healthcare provider, clinical training organization, continuing medical education provider, or medical advice service. Our Services are designed for community curation, event hosting, professional networking, and related business operations.
Because of this business model:
we may collect professional credential and licensure information to evaluate eligibility and maintain the integrity of our community;
we may collect event registration, attendance, and partner engagement information;
we may facilitate introductions or sponsored opportunities involving third-party partners; and
we do not ask users to provide, nor permit receipt of, patient records, treatment files, or other protected health information for use of the Services.
3. Definitions
For purposes of this Privacy Policy:
"Personal Information" means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked with an individual or household, or other comparable term under applicable privacy law.
"Member" means an individual who applies for, holds, or participates in a Société Santé membership.
"Partner" means a brand partner, sponsor, collaborator, vendor, or other commercial entity that applies for or participates in a partnership opportunity with Société Santé.
"Services" has the meaning set forth in Section 1 of this Privacy Policy.
"Sensitive Personal Information" means information treated as sensitive under applicable privacy law, which may include account credentials, payment card information, precise geolocation, government-issued identifiers, racial or ethnic origin, health-related information, biometric information, or professional license information, depending on the context and applicable law.
4. Children and Age Restrictions
Our Services are not directed to children. Membership is limited to adults, and Société Santé is intended for licensed professionals and adult business contacts.
We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from individuals under 18 through the Société Santé membership experience. If you believe an individual under 18 has provided Personal Information to us, contact us and we will review and delete the information as appropriate.

you request or consent to the disclosure;
the disclosure is reasonably necessary to administer the event or opportunity you elected to join;

Except as permitted above or under a separate arrangement, Société Santé does not provide its member list or member contact information to Partners for their independent use.

in connection with an actual or proposed merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, sale of assets, bankruptcy, or similar corporate transaction.

E. Deidentified and Aggregated Information
We may use and disclose deidentified, anonymized, or aggregated information that does not reasonably identify an individual, subject to applicable law.
12. Sale, Sharing, and Targeted Advertising
Société Santé does not sell Personal Information for money.
We also do not disclose Personal Information to Partners for their independent marketing use except as described in this Privacy Policy, at your direction, with your consent, or pursuant to a specific event or relationship you knowingly elect to participate in.
Like many websites, we may use analytics and advertising technologies that could be treated under some state laws as "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising. Where applicable, you may exercise available opt-out rights using the methods described in this Privacy Policy.
13. Sensitive Personal Information
Depending on your interaction with us, we may collect or process categories of Sensitive Personal Information such as:
payment card information;
account credentials;
professional license and credential information;
dietary or accessibility information you voluntarily provide for event accommodations;
We use Sensitive Personal Information only for permitted business and operational purposes, to provide requested services, to administer memberships and events, to prevent fraud and secure the Services, to comply with law, or as otherwise disclosed to you and permitted by applicable law.

14. Data Retention
We retain Personal Information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to:
provide the Services;
maintain membership and partner records;
administer events and transactions;
preserve business and financial records;
comply with legal, tax, accounting, and reporting obligations;
resolve disputes; and
enforce our agreements.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, the nature of the relationship, and applicable legal requirements.
15. Data Security
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect Personal Information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. These measures may include secure hosting environments, access controls, encryption for payment-related transactions where supported by our providers, vendor diligence, and other security practices appropriate to the nature of the information. No method of transmission over the internet or method of storage is completely secure. For that reason, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
16. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live and subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:
know whether we process your Personal Information;
access Personal Information we hold about you;
correct inaccurate Personal Information;
delete Personal Information;
obtain a copy of certain Personal Information in a portable format;
opt out of the sale of Personal Information, sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising, targeted advertising, or certain profiling activities;
limit certain uses of Sensitive Personal Information, where applicable;
withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and
appeal a decision relating to a privacy request where required by applicable law.

We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising applicable privacy rights.
To exercise a privacy right, contact us using the information in Section 20. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request. You may also designate an authorized agent where permitted by law.
If applicable law provides a right to appeal a denial of a request, you may do so by replying to our response or emailing us with "Privacy Rights Appeal" in the subject line.

17. State-Specific U.S. Privacy Disclosures
Residents of certain U.S. states may have additional privacy rights under applicable state privacy laws. Société Santé intends this Privacy Policy to address disclosures commonly required under those laws, including disclosures about:
categories of Personal Information collected;
purposes for processing;
categories of Personal Information disclosed to third parties;
categories of third parties receiving the data;
rights to access, delete, correct, and obtain copies of data; and
rights to opt out of certain processing activities, where applicable.
If you are a resident of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Oregon, Utah, Virginia, Texas, New Jersey, Delaware, Iowa, Nebraska, Montana, Tennessee, Indiana, Kentucky, Rhode Island, or another state with an applicable privacy law, you may have rights available under that law depending on your relationship with us and the type of data at issue. Some state laws exempt certain business contact information, employment-related information, nonprofit activities, HIPAA-regulated data, GLBA-regulated data, and other categories. Your rights may therefore vary by context.

18. Do Not Track and Opt-Out Preference Signals
Our website may recognize browser-based opt-out preference signals, where required by applicable law and where technically supported for the relevant processing activity. Because Do Not Track browser settings are not governed by a uniform industry standard, our response to traditional Do Not Track signals may vary. Where state law requires recognition of an opt-out preference signal, we will process that signal in accordance with the law.
19. International Users
Société Santé is based in the United States. If you access the Services from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States or other jurisdictions where our service providers operate.
By using the Services, you understand that your information may be processed in jurisdictions that may have privacy laws different from those in your jurisdiction.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will post the updated version on the website and update the "Last Modified" date above. Where required by law, we will provide additional notice.
