What Our Privacy Policy Covers

This privacy policy discusses the “personal information” that KoKo Royale obtains from you on kokoroyale.com, in store, and in connection with the Beauty Insider Program (“BI Membership”).

This privacy policy does not cover information that you submit on other websites, even if we communicate with you on those sites. For example, if you post something on Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube, that information is governed by the privacy policies on those websites and is not governed by this policy.
