Virtual Try-On Privacy Notice
This Virtual Try-On Privacy Notice (“VTO Privacy Notice”) applies to virtual try-on services (“VTO Services”) available on macys.com and in select Macy’s stores. VTO Services use augmented reality technology to allow you to submit either (i) an existing image from your computer or device or (ii) use the camera functionality in-store or on your device (collectively, “Image(s)”) from which Macy’s will virtually “apply” color to an Image of your face. Submitting an Image allows you to virtually try-on select beauty products. This VTO Privacy Notice describes Macy’s collection, use and disclosure of personal information through the VTO Services. Please Note: Macy’s may permit a third-party vendor (for example, a beauty brand) to provide virtual try-on services to Macy’s customers in store, however this VTO Privacy Notice will not apply to any third party’s virtual try-on services.
