1. Information We Collect

We collect personal information you provide when submitting application forms, consultation requests, or contacting us. This includes your name, email, phone number, nationality, medical license information, and preferred training programs. If you use Mentorship Community, we also process your account details, membership status and access dates, posts, replies, uploaded files, and security and moderation records.

Payments (Mentorship Community membership, Aesthetic Fact Sheets and training): the name and email you enter, the item, amount and currency, PayPal order and payment IDs, the country of your PayPal account as reported by PayPal, and payment, refund and dispute status. We do not receive your card or bank details. Aesthetic Fact Sheets only: your consent to the sale terms and to immediate digital delivery, and the issue, expiry and download times of your personal copy.

2. How We Use Your Information

Your information is used to process training applications, schedule consultations, generate quotes and booking confirmations, issue certificates, and communicate about our programs. We also use account and membership information to control access to private community content, manage member requests and maintain security. We may use internal analytics to improve our services.

We use payment information to take payment, manage renewals, handle refunds and disputes, and keep the tax and transaction records the law requires. Aesthetic Fact Sheets only: we print your name, email and a Copy ID on your personal PDF copy, send and limit your download link, and use the Copy ID to trace unauthorised copies.

3. Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored securely using Google Workspace (Google Sheets, Google Drive) and our server infrastructure. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction. Community images and documents are kept in private server storage and a Google Drive sync folder. Videos are processed and streamed through Mux. Membership is checked before files or short-lived video playback tokens are provided; already issued video tokens may remain valid for up to 10 minutes.

Personal Aesthetic Fact Sheets copies are kept in private server storage and are only available through your expiring download link.

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services: Google Analytics (website analytics), Cal.com (appointment scheduling), Google Workspace (email, application records and file storage), Mux (video upload, processing and streaming), Cloudflare (website delivery and security), and PayPal (payment processing for memberships, Aesthetic Fact Sheets and training). Provider policies are available at Google, Cal.com, Mux, Cloudflare and PayPal.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with our faculty surgeons for training coordination, with partner clinics for procedure scheduling, and with service providers who assist in our operations. Posts, replies and attachments shared in Mentorship Community are visible to members who have access to that content and to authorized administrators. Do not upload identifiable patient information or material you lack permission to share.

13. Professional Licence Verification (Mentorship Community)

When you apply for the Mentorship Community, we ask for the number of a professional licence, or a qualification issued or officially accredited by a government body (training or course certificates are not accepted), the issuing country or authority, and a copy of it (image or PDF) — for example a medical, nursing or state esthetician licence. We use them only to confirm your professional eligibility for membership.

The uploaded file is stored privately, is seen only by OLA's reviewing administrator, and is deleted as soon as the review is done (approved or declined). If the review is not completed within 30 days, the file is deleted and we ask you to upload it again. After the file is deleted we keep only a short text record of the check: the name and licence number as shown, the issuing country or authority, the expiry date if shown, how it was checked (the document itself or a public licence registry, with its address), who checked it and when.
