How Lumè handles information on the marketing site and inside the CRM. Effective May 15, 2026.
Who we are
Lumè CRM ("Lumè", "we", "us", or "our") operates the marketing site at lumècrm.com and the medical-spa CRM at tenant subdomains of lumècrm.com. Our customers are medical spas; their clients receive treatments at those spas and may interact with Lumè-hosted forms or booking pages.
For protected health information ("PHI") collected and processed inside the CRM, Lumè acts as a Business Associate of the customer (the spa), as defined under HIPAA. The spa is the Covered Entity. The terms of that relationship live in a signed Business Associate Agreement, summarized on /baa.
Information collected on the marketing site
The public marketing site collects two things:
- Demo-request submissions. When you fill out the form at /demo, we receive your name, work email, phone number (if you provide one), spa name, location count, provider count, the platform you currently use, and any message you include. These submissions are emailed to a small internal inbox and used to schedule a demo with you. We do not sell, share, or syndicate this information.
- Anonymized analytics. We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-first analytics service. Plausible does not set cookies, does not collect personal data, and does not track visitors across sites. The information collected is aggregate (page views, referrers, browser type, screen size, country) and cannot be used to identify you. See plausible.io/data-policy for the underlying practices.
The marketing site does not use any third-party advertising, retargeting, social-media tracking pixels, or session-replay tools.
Information collected inside the CRM
The CRM stores the data customers enter to operate their medical spa: appointment records, client charts (contact information, treatment history, allergies, signed consent forms, provider notes), invoices, payment records, staff schedules, and audit logs of every PHI access.
All PHI inside the CRM is governed by the signed Business Associate Agreement between Lumè and the customer (the spa). Lumè does not use PHI for any purpose other than providing the CRM service to the customer, as permitted by HIPAA §164.504(e) and described in the BAA.
Clients of a Lumè customer (the spa's patients) who interact with a tokenized form-fill page or online booking page submit information directly into the spa's tenant of the CRM. The spa is the data controller for that information; Lumè processes it as a Business Associate.
How we use information
Demo-request information is used to schedule a walkthrough, send a quote, and follow up with you about Lumè. We retain demo submissions for up to twenty-four months and then delete them unless you become a customer or ask us to delete sooner.
CRM data is used to provide the service to the customer. Specifically, Lumè uses the data to render the customer's calendar, charts, forms, invoices, and reports; to send transactional messages (appointment reminders, signed-form copies) that the customer has configured; and to generate the audit trail required by HIPAA §164.312(b).
We do not sell any information collected through the marketing site or the CRM. We do not use customer PHI to train artificial-intelligence models, advertising systems, or analytics products.
Sharing and subprocessors
We share information only with the subprocessors below, each under contractual confidentiality and security obligations. Each is also covered by a BAA where PHI is processed.
- Amazon Web Services (AWS). Hosting, compute, storage, encryption-at-rest, and email delivery (SES). Operates under a signed BAA with Lumè.
- Twilio. SMS delivery for appointment reminders, confirmations, and form-fill links. Operates under a signed BAA with Lumè.
- Payment processor. Card-payment processing for transactions inside the CRM. PCI DSS Level 1 compliant. Operates under a signed BAA with Lumè where the processor handles PHI alongside transaction data.
- Resend. Transactional email delivery for marketing-site forms only. Does not process PHI.
- Plausible Analytics. Anonymized marketing-site analytics. Does not process PHI or personal data.
We do not share information with law-enforcement agencies absent a valid subpoena, court order, or other legal process. We will challenge requests we believe to be overbroad. Where legally permissible, we will notify the affected customer before producing data in response to government demand.
Cookies and tracking
The marketing site does not set advertising or analytics cookies. The only cookies Lumè may set on the marketing site are functional (e.g., to remember a CSRF token on the demo form). The CRM uses a session cookie to keep authenticated operators logged in; that cookie is HTTPS-only, HttpOnly, and SameSite-strict.
Data retention
Demo-request submissions are retained for up to twenty-four months. Customer data inside the CRM is retained for the duration of the contract; upon termination, the customer may request export or destruction of their tenant data per the BAA's return and destruction provisions. Backups are encrypted and rotated on a schedule defined in our internal data retention policy; backup copies of deleted data are purged within thirty days.
Your rights
If you submitted a demo request, you can ask us to access, correct, or delete that submission at any time. Email legal@lumecrm.com and we will respond within thirty days.
If you are a patient of a Lumè customer (the spa), your access, correction, and deletion rights run through the spa as the Covered Entity, in accordance with HIPAA's Privacy Rule and applicable state law. Lumè will support the spa in fulfilling any such request you make to them.
Residents of California, the EEA, the UK, and other jurisdictions with comprehensive data-protection frameworks may have additional rights — for example, the right to data portability or to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Email us and we will accommodate those rights to the extent required by applicable law.
Security
Lumè's security posture is summarized on /security and includes tenant isolation at the database layer, role-based permissions resolved per request, append-only audit logging on every PHI access, and AWS infrastructure under a signed Business Associate Agreement. SOC 2 Type II is in progress.
In the event of a breach involving unsecured PHI, Lumè will notify affected customers without unreasonable delay and no later than sixty days following discovery, consistent with the BAA and HIPAA §164.410.
International transfers
Lumè's production infrastructure runs in the United States. If you access the service from another country, your information will be transferred to and processed in the U.S. Where required, Lumè relies on Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent transfer mechanisms.
Children
The marketing site is not directed at children. The CRM may store information about minors when the customer (the spa) treats minors and is authorized to do so by a parent or guardian; that handling is governed by the customer's own policies and the BAA, not by this notice.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. If a change is material, we will give customers reasonable notice before the change takes effect — by email to the operator's admin contact and an in-CRM notice. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the current version.
