INFORMATION COLLECTED

When you use our Sites, we collect your Personal Information and non-Personal Information.

  • Usage Information: We may collect usage information passively, while you are visiting or interacting with the Sites. We call this “passive” collection since you may not know that this information is being collected when you visit or interact with the Sites. This information may consist of the following items: Site visitors’ IP address, IP address-related information, system Media Access Control address, network configuration information, network device information, browser plug-in type and versions, and operating system. Additionally, like any online site or service, our mobile application automatically collects certain information such as your IP address, device information (e.g., the unique identifier of your mobile device, hardware model, operating system version, mobile network information), and the URL from which you access our application.  You are not required to affirmatively submit any Personal Information to us in connection with the general use of our mobile application, unless you make a purchase through the application, in which case you must create an account.
  • Information from Other Websites, Including Mobile Applications and Social Media Platforms: If you use a social media platform or your mobile device (or other method of communication) to interact with the Sites, that platform or application may have a specific privacy policy that governs the use of Personal Information related to it. For example, if you use a mobile application and your mobile device’s settings allow it, we may collect mobile location information from your device. Our application may be designed to collect information even if you are not logged into the application or the Sites. If you have questions about the security and privacy settings of your mobile device, please refer to instructions from your mobile service provider or the manufacturer of your device to learn how to adjust your settings.  We do not control the data collection or privacy practices of the application stores from which you download our mobile application, or of any third-party platform through which you access our Sites or contact us. You should review the privacy policy and terms of use of any third-party site or mobile application store before using or downloading any application and review and use available controls and settings on your device to reflect your preferences.
  • Information from Other Sources: We also may obtain, collect and aggregate information (including Personal Information) provided to us by our marketing service providers and other vendors. That information may include information on current subscribers or customers, and is used for a number of things including enabling us to send you the most relevant, timely and exciting offers and announcements specifically tailored for you and your interests.

Virginia residents may also see the section entitled Your Virginia Privacy Rights)  We may obtain personal information about you from other sources and combine that with information we collect about you. For example, we collect personal information from the local postal services’ national change of address databases to verify and update mailing addresses. If you interact with us on social media, we will also collect personal information about you from those interactions.
  • Derivation.  We may derive personal information or draw inferences about you based on the other types of personal information we collect. For example, we may infer your location based on your IP address, or that you are interested in purchasing a certain type of clothing based on your browsing behavior on our Services.

COOKIES AND OTHER SESSION IDENTIFIERS

Like many sites, we, and third parties we allow, utilize a technology called "cookies." A cookie is a piece of information that is placed on your browser when you access the Sites. In many cases, the information collected using cookies (and related technologies) are used in non-identifiable ways, without any reference to Personal Information.

Cookies may be session cookies (i.e., last only for one browser session) or persistent cookies (i.e., continue in your browser until they are deleted or expire). Some of the cookies we use may be flash cookies or Adobe cookies.  While they are harmless, they may contain demographic information and depending on your browser these cookies may not normally be deleted when your cookies are deleted. Please check your browser to determine where these types of cookies are stored and how they may be deleted.

We want to speak with you where it’s best for you. We may share your contact information with other companies so we can reach you on their sites or social channels. If you choose to give others your data directly (like Google or Facebook) their rules apply to that data, not ours. We sometimes buy ads on other sites. Even if we don’t share (or have) your data, you might see those ads. We can’t always control how they choose to place our ads.

HOW WE USE THE INFORMATION COLLECTED

We may use the information we collect as necessary and to fulfill your requests, including without limitation in the following manner:

Aggregated Information: In an ongoing effort to better understand and to serve the users of the Sites, we (either directly or working in concert with our marketing services providers) may conduct research on our customer demographics, interests and behavior based on Personal Information and other information that has been provided or received by us. For example, we may combine information about visitors to the Sites to determine how best to target our marketing and the products that we offer in certain areas of the country. This research may be compiled and analyzed on an aggregate basis and this aggregate information does not identify you personally and is not classified or treated as Personal Information under this Privacy Policy.

HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION

We may share the information described herein to the following categories of third parties in the following circumstances:

Order Fulfillment and Fraud Protection:  If you choose to make a purchase on the Sites, we may collect from you your credit card number, billing address and other information related to such purchase, and we may use such collected information in order to fulfill your purchase.

In addition, we may share your Personal Information with fraud protection services to assist us in preventing fraud and protecting our customers from credit card fraud.

Business Transfers: As with any business, it is possible that as our business develops, we might sell, assign, buy, transfer or otherwise acquire or dispose of certain businesses or corporate assets. In the event of such or similar event, Personal Information may be part of the transferred assets. In the event that all or part of our assets are sold or acquired by another party, or in the event of a merger, you grant us the right to assign your Personal Information collected via the Sites, and you acknowledge and agree that any successor to or acquirer of us and/or our eCommerce service provider will continue to have the right to use your Personal Information and other information in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Subsidiaries and Affiliates: We may also share your Personal Information with our subsidiaries and/or affiliates. Our subsidiaries and affiliates will be bound to treat and to maintain any Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.  Affiliates are companies that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with us. We may share your data with our affiliates.

Agents, Consultants and Related Third Parties: As noted above with respect to our eCommerce service provider, we sometimes engage other companies to perform certain business-related functions on our behalf so that we can focus on our core business. Examples of these services include, but are not limited to, payment processing and authorization, fraud protection and credit risk reduction, product customization, order fulfillment and shipping, marketing and promotional material distribution, website evaluation, data analysis and, where applicable, data cleansing. In connection with services those partners provide for us, we may provide or otherwise give them access to certain Personal Information.

These third-party marketers, partners, and other third parties may use your Personal Information for their own purposes, or further disclose your information to other third parties. If you prefer that we not share your Personal Information with these types of parties, please inform us using the Contact Us form.  Third parties are unaffiliated companies that have not agreed to limit their use of your data only to provide the services in our contract and/or have not agreed not to “sell” your data. For example, they may need to use the data to provide you services directly that go beyond our contract with them (e.g. your credit card company). We share your data with “third parties” only as allowed by applicable law.

Legal Requirements: We may disclose your Personal Information if required to do so by law (including, without limitation, responding to a subpoena or request from law enforcement, court or government agency) or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary (i) to comply with a legal obligation, (ii) to protect or defend our rights, interests or property or that of other customers or users, (iii) to act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of the Sites or the public or (iv) to protect against legal liability or potential fraud, as determined in our sole discretion.

Virginia residents may also refer to the section entitled Your Virginia Privacy Rights.

STEPS TAKEN TO KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SECURE

Bad guys are tricky. They may pretend to be us to trick you into giving them your data. Don’t get tricked -- we do not ask you for your password, whether in email, on line chat, phone call, or in person.

We take commercially reasonable measures to ensure the security and confidentiality of your Personal Information. We have implemented information security measures that contain administrative, technical and physical controls that are designed to reasonably safeguard your Personal Information. Even though we have taken and will continue to take significant steps to protect this information, no company, including us, can fully eliminate all security risks associated with Personal Information. Please understand that no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. Understand that any information that you transfer to us is done at your own risk. We recommend that you take additional measures to protect yourself, including by installing anti-virus software, closing browsers after use, keeping your passwords confidential, and making sure that you regularly update software and apps. You also should not use the same password across multiple websites or apps because it makes your data much less safe, and it’s very hard for us to protect you from someone else’s breach.  If we learn of a data security system breach, we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps. By using the Sites or providing Personal Information to us, you agree that we can communicate with you electronically regarding security, privacy, and administrative issues relating to your use of the Sites. We may post a notice via the Sites if a security breach occurs. We may also send an email to you at the email address you have provided to us in these circumstances. Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive written notice of a data privacy or security breach. If you have reason to believe that your Personal Information that we have collected or our system security has been breached, please inform us by using the Contact Us form.

DATA RETENTION

We will retain your information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy or as necessary to provide our services to you. We will retain and use your information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (including record retention), to resolve disputes, to enforce our agreements, and as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. When the Company determines your information is no longer needed, or after legal authority to retain it has expired, your information will be destroyed in accordance with applicable laws and pursuant to procedures established in relation to each Company system or process.

YOUR CHOICES AND INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS

You have several choices available when it comes to your Personal Information. We will honor the choices you make regarding your Personal Information. If you have created and maintained a user account on the Sites, you will be able to sign in and update your account (including contact) information. You may also write to us at the address provided in this policy to update your contact information or to change your subscription preferences. In addition, you may:

Limit the  Personal Information You Provide: You can use the Sites and limit the Personal Information you provide either by disabling cookies or by not registering an account with us. If you choose to limit the Personal Information you provide and/or to disable cookies, you may not be able to use certain functionalities of the Sites. For instance, in order to purchase goods and services on the Sites, payment and shipping information must necessarily be provided.

Manage Your Subscription Preferences: We may send your information by email or text message. If you provide your mobile phone number and ask to receive information by text message, we may provide information in that manner. Additionally, we may send automated text messages (if you provide consent). Where you consent to receive automated text messages from us, please note that your consent includes consent to receive both autodialed and/or pre-recorded telemarketing text messages or non-automated messages from or on behalf of the Company and its affiliated companies at the telephone number you provided. You further understand that consent is not a condition of purchase and that message and data rates may apply. Additional terms and conditions, including message frequency, are provided at sign-up for any automated messages.

Opt-Out of Marketing Emails and Texts: For email marketing, you will have an opportunity to change your subscription preferences by clicking on an "unsubscribe" hyperlink contained in all promotional emails sent by us or on our behalf. Please note that while we honor all subscription requests as timely as possible, it may take up to ten (10) business days to become effective. Please be aware that even if you opt-out of receiving future promotional communications, you may, if you utilize the eCommerce features of the Sites, be sent certain transactional communications related to the purchase or shipment of items purchased. This means if you order online, we will send you an email confirming your order and may need to contact you by phone, email or regular mail if we have questions about your order. Additionally, an opt-out will not remove you from messages that we are required to send under relevant laws or regulations. You may ask us not to contact you by text message at any time by responding to a text message after it is received. For automated text messages, you will have the opportunity to opt-out by replying “STOP” to any message received. Please note that you hereby consent to receiving a confirmatory message in response to any opt-out request. We will process your unsubscribe request as soon as possible, but please be aware that in some circumstances you may receive a few more messages until the unsubscribe request is processed.

Technical limitations on opt out. Please note that there are technical limits to our ability to identify data related to you and, if you opt out, to prevent the “sale” of that information to other parties. Where we can reasonably determine that information relates to you and you have opted out, we will not “sell” it to “third parties” (except as allowed by the law). However, we may not be able to determine that information relates to you. In that case, the information may be “sold” to a third party. Opting out is not unsubscribe.

  • Opting out of the “sale” of personal information will not prevent you from receiving marketing messages from us. If you wish to unsubscribe from our emails, please follow the unsubscribe link in one of our emails. If you wish to unsubscribe from text messages, please follow the unsubscribe process for the program you opted into.
  • Opting-out multiple email addresses If you want multiple email addresses opted out, you must provide each address to us. This is because we have no reasonable way to use a single address you give us to link to other addresses you may have.

Social Media & Other Public Platforms: You may also manage the sharing of certain Personal Information with us when you connect with us through a social media platform or application, such as through Facebook Connect. Please refer to the privacy settings of the social media website or application to determine how you may adjust your permissions and manage the interactivity between us and your social media platform(s) or application(s). That said, we want you to be aware that when you post information to public forums, including publicly viewable social media platforms, that information will become available to all who access such platform pages. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN DISCLOSING ANY INFORMATION IN CHAT ROOMS, FORUMS AND OTHER PUBLIC POSTING AREAS. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE USE BY OTHERS OF THE INFORMATION THAT YOU DISCLOSE IN CHAT ROOMS, FORUMS AND OTHER PUBLIC POSTING AREAS.

LINKING TO OR FROM ANOTHER WEBSITE

The Sites may contain links to other websites not operated or controlled by us (the "Third-Party Sites"). The policies and procedures set forth herein do not apply to any Third-Party Sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of such Third-Party Sites. We are not responsible for the actions of these Third-Party Sites; rather, the owners and operators of all Third-Party Sites are responsible for all Personal Information provided, collected, maintained, stored or otherwise disclosed on those sites, if any. The links on the Sites do not imply that we endorse or have reviewed the Third-Party Sites, including their privacy policies, if any. If you have any questions about how these Third-Party Sites’ use your Personal Information, we strongly encourage contacting those sites directly for information on their privacy policies and practices.

If you have accessed the Sites through a link from certain of our advertising or marketing partners, the Sites may include a frame of the applicable advertising or marketing partner. Nevertheless, the information you provide to us through these framed Web pages is collected by us, and our use of such information is governed by this Privacy Policy.

HOW WE RESPOND TO DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS

Do Not Track (DNT) is a privacy preference that users can set in some web browsers, allowing users to opt out of tracking by websites and online services.  At the present time, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has not yet established universal standards for recognizable DNT signals and therefore, we do not recognize DNT. Our Sites do not support “Do Not Track” browser settings and do not currently participate in any “Do Not Track” frameworks that would allow us to respond to signals or other mechanisms from you regarding the collection of your Personal Information.

CHILDREN, MINORS (i.e, those under the age of majority)

If you are under the age of 13, you should not provide any Personal Information to us.

While grossly errant governments and institutions presently allow all sorts of crazy and creepy things to be done mentally and physically to America’s children, we believe that if a child finds our Sites, it is important to protect their privacy.  A child’s sanctity and privacy is between their and their parents or guardians,  not others, including governments or institutions.  

The Site may include features or material that may be appealing to minors but does not knowingly seek to attract minors. We endeavor to keep our Sites rated G, but it possible that occasionally they may have material and features some believe to be unsuitable for minors and which are not necessarily monitored.

We do not sell products for purchase by children; we sell children's products for purchase by adults. If you are under 18, you may use our Sites only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.  In cases where a parent or guardian has authorized a minor to use our Sites,  they recognize that they are fully responsible for: (i) the online conduct of such minor; (ii) controlling the minor's access to and use of the Website; and (iii) the consequences of any misuse by the minor. They acknowledge that we have has no obligation to monitor the content accessible on or through the Sites.

If you believe a minor has provided Personal Information to us, please use the Contact Us form and we will take all such reasonable measures as we are able to remove that information and to not use it except where necessary to protect the safety of the child or others as required or allowed by law.  Technology makes it impossible to guarantee complete and comprehensive removal of that data from all systems, but we will do our best.

ACCESSING THE SITES FROM OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES

If you are visiting our Sites from outside the United States, please be aware that you are sending information (including Personal Information) to the United States where our servers are located. We will hold and process your Personal Information in accordance with privacy laws in the United States and this Privacy Policy. Please note that privacy laws in the United States may not be the same as, and in some cases may be considered less protective than, privacy laws in other countries. United States privacy laws may provide more limited recourse mechanisms, including dissimilar or, at times, weaker data protection rights. Therefore, by providing your Personal Information, you consent to the collection, use, and sharing of your Personal Information as set forth in this Privacy Policy and to the transfer of your Personal Information to the United States as indicated above, in accordance with applicable law.

In some cases, we also may send an email notifying registered users of upcoming changes.
