Purposes of Data Processing
We process your personal information exclusively for the following specified business purposes:
- Preparing and delivering direct, non-binding wholesale and retail price quotes for cosmetic sets and daily skincare items.
- Responding to container longevity questions, ingredient inquiries, and refill cartridge guidance through our direct studio desk.
- Fulfilling sample shipments and coordinating dispatch staging from our Charlotte facility.
- Measuring advertising channel efficiency and campaign attribution across paid ad networks without creating medical or behavioral profiles.
- Diagnosing server infrastructure errors, defending against automated bot submissions, and safeguarding network integrity.
Legal Bases for Processing
Under applicable US and European data protection standards, each data processing operation relies on a defined lawful basis:
- Consent: Storing ad attribution parameters, analytics storage, marketing personalization signals, and optional cookie storage requires your explicit affirmative action via our cookie banner.
- Contractual / Pre-Contractual Steps: Processing your name, contact information, delivery destination, and product specifications submitted in the inquiry form is necessary to quote product orders and answer pre-purchase inquiries.
- Legitimate Interests: Logging IP addresses and technical server requests is necessary to maintain website security, prevent spam, and protect server performance.
Advertising Platform Disclosure & Click Identifiers
This website is an active destination for paid commercial traffic. Today, campaigns run across major advertising networks to introduce our Charlotte skincare catalog to interested consumers and wholesale buyers. Specifically:
- Google Ads: We receive traffic directed through google ads campaigns. Inbound clicks carry the Google click identifier parameter (gclid) appended to the target URL for conversion tracking and campaign attribution.
- Microsoft Advertising: We receive traffic directed through microsoft advertising (Bing Ads). Inbound clicks carry the Microsoft click identifier parameter (msclkid) for ad attribution.
- Meta Ads: We receive traffic directed through Meta Ads platforms (Facebook and Instagram). Inbound links carry the Meta click identifier parameter (fbclid).
We do not use advertising tools to infer sensitive medical conditions, track health outcomes, or target individuals under 18 years of age. Neither Google, Microsoft, nor Meta has reviewed, approved, or verified the formulas, pricing, or statements displayed on this website.
Google Consent Mode v2 Implementation
Beautyrituals has deployed Google Consent Mode v2 in strict accordance with global technical specifications. Upon your initial arrival at beautyrituals.click, the following four consent signals are held denied by default before any advertising or analytical tag executes:
ad_storage— set to denied until explicit consent is granted.ad_user_data— set to denied until explicit consent is granted.ad_personalization— set to denied until explicit consent is granted.analytics_storage— set to denied until explicit consent is granted.
If you click "Reject Optional" or dismiss the banner, these four parameters remain strictly denied. If you grant consent and subsequently withdraw it using the "Consent Preferences" control in the website footer, all four signals are immediately set back to denied, preventing future marketing storage or tracking cookie persistence.
