The Strand Online privacy policy
We Take Your Privacy Seriously
We've put a lot of thought into protecting the information you provide us and back it up with continued effort to ensure that this information is both stored securely and used only to service your needs and only directly by The Strand Online / The Strand Hair Salon and the Stylists / Hairdressers who operate in the Salon.
Your account password is encrypted and not visible to anyone under any circumstances. If you forget your password, you must use the account recovery utility found in the login panel at the top of every page and follow the steps including verification of account ownership through your email. 99% of all password and data theft occur from internal access. This access can be user access (like yourself), operator accesss (such as The Strand Online), or server access (like our website host service provider). In any case, an encrypted password is not decipherable by anyone who has access to your stored account information.
You can rest assured that now; and as we continue to develop our privacy policy, our primary focus is to respect your wishes. If at any time, you have any concerns about our privacy policy or the security of the information you've provided to us, you may contact us and we will do what ever you need done to satisfy your concerns up-to and including the removal of all your provided information from our systems.
