KC GROUP PTE LTD PRIVACY POLICY

Your privacy is important to us. We respect your right to protect your personal data. This Personal Data Protection policy sets out the policies and practices for KC GROUP PTE LTD and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “KC Group”, “Kskin”, “we”, or “us”), with respect to how Kskin collects, uses, discloses, and otherwise process personal data of our customers in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act (“PDPA”). This notice applies to personal data collected by Kskin  via this website and other websites operated or provided by Kskin , mobile applications provided by Kskin, and by any other means in the course of providing the Products and/or Services, including personal data in the possession of organisations which we have engaged to collect, use, disclose or process personal data for Kskin.

PERSONAL DATA COLLECTION

Kskin may collect personal data from you, when you register on our website, subscribe to our newsletter, complete our survey form, fill out any form (via our website or face-to-face), enter into any agreement with us, when you send us queries, requests and feedback to us, when your images are captured by us via in-store cameras while you are using our service or photographs or videos taken by us or our representatives when you attend events, roadshows, contests and promotions hosted by us, when you download or use Kskin’ mobile applications, or when you submit your Personal Data to us for any other reason.

 

Facial Data Collection and AI Skin Analysis

After you provide consent, our app provides AI-powered skin analysis and personalised skincare recommendations using a photo captured through your device’s front facing camera. This section describes what facial data we collect, how it is used, who it is shared with, where it is stored, and how long it is kept. It supplements the rest of this Privacy Policy and prevails over it in the event of any conflict regarding facial data.

1.⁠ ⁠What facial data we collect
When you use the skin analysis feature, we collect:

• A facial image of you, captured through your device camera at the moment you start a scan. Skin analysis data derived from that image, which may include skin type, skin tone, perceived age, condition scores, and identified skin concerns (such as wrinkles, pigmentation, redness, hydration, pores, and similar attributes).
• A scan record linking the image and analysis to your account through an opaque internal identifier.
• We do not collect your name, email, phone number, date of birth, government ID, precise location, payment information, or any other contact or identity data as part of the skin analysis flow itself. Under applicable data protection laws (including the EU/UK GDPR), the facial image may be considered a special category of personal data. We process it only with your explicit consent.

2.⁠ ⁠Who we share facial data with
To perform the skin analysis, we share your facial image with one third party: Haut.AI OÜ (registry code 14494738, Telliskivi 60a/8, 10412 Tallinn, Estonia), a skin-analytics provider that acts as our data processor under a written data processing agreement.

When you run a scan:
Your facial image is transmitted directly from your device to Haut.AI.

The only identifier shared with Haut.AI is an opaque internal account ID used to label the analysis record. We do not share your name, email, phone number, address, or any other contact information with Haut.AI.
Haut.AI’s own privacy notice is available at https://haut.ai/privacy-policy/.

We do not share facial data with any other third party, except where required by law (for example, in response to a valid court order) or to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. We will not disclose facial data in response to a merger, acquisition, or sale of our business without first notifying you.

3.⁠ ⁠How we use facial data
We use your facial image and the derived skin analysis data only for the following purposes:

• To run the skin analysis and generate a skin report for you.
• To generate personalised skincare product, treatment, and routine recommendations.
• The skin analysis is performed entirely by Haut.AI’s face Skin Analysis 3.0 service. The results are informational and are not a medical diagnosis.

We do not use your facial data for:
• Identity verification, facial recognition, or matching you against any database (any device-level biometric unlock such as Face ID is handled entirely on your device and is unrelated to this feature).
• Advertising, marketing profiling, lookalike targeting, or ad measurement.
• Surveillance, law enforcement, or any purpose other than skin analysis and skincare recommendations.
• Sale or licensing to any third party.

4.⁠ ⁠How Haut.AI uses facial data
Haut.AI may use your facial image in an anonymised format to improve their services, including for AI training and conducting other research and development activities.

5.⁠ ⁠Where facial data is stored
Facial images and skin analysis results are stored by Haut.AI on their servers. An identifier linked to your facial image on Haut.AI and copy of your skin analysis results are also stored on Kskin servers. Your facial image is only stored on Haut.AI.

6.⁠ ⁠How long facial data is retained
Your facial image and skin analysis results are retained by Haut.AI for as long as necessary for the fulfilment of the objectives described above.

The identifier linked to your facial image on Haut.AI and a copy of your skin analysis results are retained on Kskin servers for as long as your Kskin mobile app account remains active.

7.⁠ ⁠Your consent and your choices
We collect your facial image and transmit it to Haut.AI only after you give explicit, opt-in consent within the app at the start of each scan flow.

You can use the rest of the app without ever taking a skin analysis scan.

You may withdraw consent for future scans at any time by stopping use of the feature. You may request deletion of past scans at any time by contacting us at hello@kskinfacial.com or by deleting your skin report through the app.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
