Use and Disclosure of Information
If you do voluntarily provide personal data through our Site or Services, we may use this information to provide you the business service or to respond to your requests (including to consider you for employment). Furthermore, we may send you communications in order to provide other information that we think may be of interest to you. Please see below the “Marketing Communications” section for more information on your options for such communications. We may process personal data in order to fulfil legal obligations relevant to us.
Facet does not sell personal data as it is defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
To the extent permitted by applicable local law, we may provide your personal information to other entities – which can process your data as our processors or as autonomous controllers – as described in this section:
We may provide your personal information to our parent, subsidiary, and affiliate entities within our corporate family and our partner entities that are not within our corporate family.
In the United States, we may use your personal information to communicate with you via email or share with vendors and service agencies that we may engage to assist us in providing our Services to you.
We reserve the right to release contained personal information concerning any user when that user partakes (or is reasonably suspected of partaking) in any illegal activity where permitted by applicable local law. If permitted by applicable law in your jurisdiction, we may make such disclosures without a subpoena, warrant, or other court order, and we may also make such disclosures when we suspect a user is in violation of our Terms of Use or other published guidelines.
We may release any information, including personal information, in response to court and governmental orders, civil subpoenas, or discovery requests where permitted by applicable local law, and as otherwise required by law. We cooperate with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who may be using our servers or services for illegal activities. We also reserve the right to report any suspected illegal activity to law enforcement entities for investigation or prosecution.
We may transfer your personal information to a successor entity in connection with a merger, acquisition, consolidation, or other corporate reorganization in which Facet participates or to a purchaser of all or substantially all of Facet’s assets to which this Site relates, including a sale in bankruptcy where permitted by applicable local law.
We may also share your personal information with your consent, such as if we ask your permission to use your testimonial in our advertising. You can withdraw such consent at any time.
You may request for us to provide an accurate list of our processors by writing to the email contact below.

At any time, you may revoke your consent for the receipt of communications that Facet sends to you by following the unsubscribe process or contacting us at contact@facetmed.com . Please follow the instructions in our emails to unsubscribe from receiving future marketing communications from us.
Please note that even if you unsubscribe from newsletters and promotional emails, we may still need to contact you with important transactional information about your account or your equipment.
Legal Basis for the Processing
Facet will only process (i.e., use) your personal data when the law allows us to, that is, when we have a legal basis for processing.
We use your personal data in the following circumstances:
Performance of a contract: where we need to perform a contract which we are about to enter into or have entered into with you as a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract;
Legal or regulatory obligation: where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation that we are subject to;
Legitimate interests: where necessary for our interests (or those of a third party), provided that your fundamental rights do not override such interests. We make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights before we process your personal data for our legitimate interests; and
Consent and explicit consent: where you have provided your consent to processing your personal data.
Facet does not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law).
We only rely on consent as the legal basis for processing your personal data where it is required by applicable local law (for instance, in relation to some of our electronic marketing). You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. When you withdraw your consent, we will stop the data processing.
Data Retention Period
Facet will keep your personal data for as long as is reasonably necessary or required by law for the purpose of the processing.
Purpose Limitation and Data Integrity
Facet will only process personal information in a way that is compatible with and relevant to the purpose for which it was collected or authorized for by the individual. Facet will take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information is accurate, complete, current, secure, and reliable for its intended use.
Depending on where you permanently reside, your data access rights may include those below :
Facet respects your rights concerning your personal information. Accordingly, you have the right, subject to necessary validation of your identity, to:

Object to Facet’s processing of your personal data for direct marketing;

We may continue to process your personal data, even if you have opposed the processing, if we have compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which overrides your privacy interest.
Request (under certain circumstances) the restriction of the processing of your personal data; and
If applicable, lodge a complaint with a Data Protection Authority if you have concerns about our practices regarding the processing of personal data.
Additionally, you have the right to access your personal information. You may request a copy of your personal data, which, upon proper verification of your identity, Facet will provide in a structured format and, if technically feasible, transfer the data to another data controller (data portability). You may also request:
The categories of personal information we collected about you;

Furthermore, you have the right to request that we delete your personal information. Depending on the nature of the data, deletion may consist of erasing, aggregating, or anonymizing your information. After we receive and validate your request, we will delete and direct our service providers to delete your personal information, unless an exception applies. We may deny your deletion request, in whole or in part, if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:
Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform a contract with you;
Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities;
Debug to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;
Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with your expectations based on your relationship with us or make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it; or
Comply with a legal obligation.

You may, without charge, request to review, know, correct, update, delete, or restrict or object to the processing of your personal information at any time by calling 800-526-2387 or emailing us at contact@facetmed.com.
Only you or an authorized agent may make a request to access your personal information. The request must:
Provide sufficient information for us to reasonably verify you are the person or an authorized representative of the person about whom we collected the personal information; and
Describe your request with sufficient detail for us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
For your safety and the safety of your information, we cannot fulfill a request to provide or to delete personal information if we cannot:
Verify your identity or your authority to make the request; and
Confirm the personal information relates to you or to an individual for whom you are a lawful agent.
We may require additional verification before deleting or disclosing particularly sensitive information. We will not use the verification information you provide for any purpose other than verifying your identity or authority to make the request.
Submitting a request does not require you to create an account with us. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that specific account.
