HOW WE COLLECT INFORMATION
You always remain in control of the information you provide to Fruit of the Loom (postal address, telephone, fax, mobile number, e-mail address, etc).


We collect two types of information about visitors:
- Personal information such as name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, and other personal information which you have voluntarily submitted to us; and
- Aggregate information such as information about how many visitors log on to our sites, the pages they access, etc.


a) Personal Information
In general, you can visit our website without telling us who you are or revealing personal information about yourself, although you may then not be able to participate in certain promotions or receive product information.
We will not collect any personal information about you (including, but not limited, to your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address), unless you provide it to us voluntarily for the purposes mentioned in this statement.
If you opt not to provide us with personal information you can still access our websites; however you may be unable to participate in certain promotions or receive product information offered through Fruit of the Loom websites.


b) Aggregate and Statistical Data
Fruit of the Loom may collect certain aggregate data called web log information (such as your web browser, operating system, pages visited, etc.) and use cookies when you visit many of our webpages. For instance, when you visit one of our websites, our webserver will automatically recognize some non-personal information, including, but not limited to, the date and time you visited our site, the pages you visited, the referrer (the website you came from), the type of browser you are using (e.g., Netscape, Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you are using (e.g., Windows '95 or Mac OS), and the domain name and address of your Internet service provider (e.g., AOL).

Neither our cookies nor web log information collects any personal information. They do not contain personal information such as your name or e-mail address.

In some cases we may also collect information about you that you voluntarily submit and which is not personal, such as general statistical information like age, gender, household size, zip/postal code, preferences and interests (pseudonymous information or profiles).

If you do not agree with setting of cookies on your computer or on the Fruit of the Loom servers or with pseudonymous profiles, you may opt out by sending us an e-mail by clicking here (link to a page with options 1. No cookies 2. No pseudonymous profiling).


ACCESS TO YOUR INFORMATION
Fruit of the Loom does not require visitors to our websites to provide personal information in order to obtain access to any of our sites. Fruit of the Loom collects personal information (including, but not limited to, your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address) from our visitors only on a voluntary basis.

We attempt to keep your files complete, up-to-date and accurate.

You are in control of the personal information you provide to Fruit of the Loom online. You can:

1. Ask for a copy of your personal information;
2. Ask for your personal information to be corrected or updated; or
3. Ask us to remove your personal information from our records.

HOW WE USE THE INFORMATION
a) Personal Information
We collect, process, maintain and use personal information you have voluntarily submitted to contact you, including via e-mail, to respond to your comments or requests for information. In addition, we may use personal information to provide you the most helpful and targeted products and services to meet your needs and respond to your inquiries. To better meet your needs, we may supplement the information we collect with data obtained from third parties for the same purposes.

We also use personal information about you to improve our marketing and promotional efforts; to statistically analyze site usage; to improve our content and product offerings; and to customize our sites' content, layout and services. We may also use your information to deliver information to you that, in some cases, is targeted to your interests, such as new products/services and promotions. We believe these uses allow us to improve our site and better tailor it to meet our visitors' needs. Fruit of the Loom does not collect personal information automatically, but we may combine non personal information collected automatically (e.g., through cookies) with your previously submitted personal information.

Fruit of the Loom may send visitors who have opted-in e-mails describing new products, promotions or events. These services are optional and you may opt-out of these services completely, at any time. We will only store your personal information for a reasonable period of time.


b) Aggregate and Statistical Data
Fruit of the Loom uses web log information (such as your web browser, operating system, pages visited, etc.) to help us design our website, to identify popular features, and for other managerial purposes. However, web logs may be used if necessary to help identify any person attempting to break into or damage our website. We may share web log information with law enforcement agencies if we believe that we have evidence of a violation of computer security or related laws.


DATA SHARING AND TRANSFER
Fruit of the Loom will not trade, sell or share your personal information for use by any business, other than the brand to which you submitted your information and other Fruit of the Loom brands, without your consent, unless required by law or as disclosed to you when the information is collected. If you do provide us with consent to share your information with other companies, we may share your information with companies who offer products and services that may be of interest to you. These companies may then contact you directly with product or sample offers, personalized offers and information, or to ask for your feedback on products and programs that they think may be of interest to you.

Your personal information will generally be stored in the Fruit of the Loom databases, which are located mainly in the United States or Europe. Specific information is provided on the web site's consent or registration form, where needed. For easier processing of e-mail campaigns or other marketing purposes, however, your personal information may be sent, usually on a temporary basis, to countries outside the United States or Europe. Nonetheless, our policy is to ensure that your information is always granted the same level of protection no matter where it is stored.
