Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to our information gathering and dissemination practices for beautybyearth.com (“Site”), which is owned by Beauty by Earth (“us”, “we” and “our”).

Our privacy policy is easy to read because it’s simple. It’s simple because it’s based on elementary values like honesty and integrity. Momma raised us right!

Bottom line? Except as necessary to process your orders, we won’t share your information with anyone – period.
