  • From Social Networking sites when you connect with us on such social networking sites or use a social network login to access our services;

Like many websites, we use "cookies" to enhance your experience and gather information about visitors and visits to our websites. Please refer to the "Do we use 'cookies'?" section below for information about cookies and how we use them.

How and why we use your Personal Information?

We may use the information we collect from you when you register, purchase products, enter a contest or promotion, respond to a survey or marketing communication, surf the website, or use certain other site features in the following ways:

  • To personalize your site experience and to allow us to deliver the type of content and product offerings in which you are most interested.
  • To allow us to better service you in responding to your customer service requests.
  • To quickly process your transactions and for the performance of our contract with you (or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract), including updating and enhancing our customer records.
  • To administer a contest, promotion, survey or other site feature.
  • To comply with our legal obligations including when we conduct checks to identify our customers and verify their identity.
  • For our or a third party’s legitimate interests including:
    • to prevent and detect fraud against you or State and Liberty Clothing;
    • to ensure business policies are adhered to;
    • for operational reasons such as improving efficiency, training and quality control;
    • to ensure the confidentiality of commercially sensitive information;
    • for statistical analysis to help us manage our business;
    • to prevent unauthorized access and modification to a system; and
    • for marketing our products (and those of selected third parties) to existing and former customers, third parties who have previously expressed an interest in our services, and third parties with whom we have had no previous dealings.
  • Where you have given consent.

A legitimate interest is when we have a business or commercial reason to use your information, so long as this is not overridden by your own rights and interests.

Promotional Communications

If you have opted-in to receive our e-mail newsletter, we may send you periodic e-mails about our products, including exclusive offers, promotions or new products. We have a legitimate interest in processing your Personal Information for promotional purposes (see above “How and why we use your Personal Information”).

We will always treat your Personal Information with the utmost respect and never sell or share it with other organizations outside State and Liberty Clothing for marketing purposes.

If you would no longer like to receive promotional e-mail from us, please refer to the "How can you opt-out, remove or modify information you have provided to us?" Section below. If you have not opted-in to receive e-mail newsletters, you will not receive these e-mails. Visitors who register or participate in other site features such as marketing programs and 'members-only' content will be given a choice whether they would like to be on our e-mail list and receive e-mail communications from us.

How do we protect visitor information?

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your Personal Information. Your Personal Information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential. When you place orders or access your Personal Information, we offer the use of a secure server. All sensitive/credit information you supply is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our databases to be only accessed as stated above.

If you receive an e-mail that looks like it is from us asking you for your Personal Information, do not respond. We will never request your password, username, credit card information, or other Personal Information through e-mail.

While we strive to safeguard your Personal Information, due to many reasons, including the inherent security flaws in the internet, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us and, as such, you agree that your disclosure of such information is at your own risk.

Do we use "cookies"?

Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables the site's or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. We use cookies to:

  • help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart.
  • help us understand your preferences based on previous or current site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services.
  • help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.

We may also contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business.

We also may use automatic data collection technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking).  We do not currently respond to browser do-not-track signals. However, if you do not wish for us to collect information about you through other automatic data collection technologies, such as cookies, you can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser (like Netscape Navigator, Google Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Internet Explorer) settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your browser Help menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies. If you turn cookies off, you won't have access to many features that make your Website experience more efficient and some of our Website will not function properly. Also, if you use a different browser or computer, you will have to make this same selection again. However, you can still place orders over the telephone by contacting our customer service.

Do we disclose the information we collect?

We routinely share Personal Information with:

  • Service providers we use to help deliver our products to you, such as payment service providers, warehouses and delivery companies;
  • Other third parties we use to help us run our business, such as marketing agencies or website hosts;
  • Third parties approved by you, including social media sites you choose to link your account to or third-party payment providers;

We only allow our service providers to handle your Personal Information if we are satisfied they take appropriate measures to protect your Personal Information. We also impose contractual obligations on service providers relating to ensure they can only use your Personal Information to provide services to us and to you.

We may also disclose, exchange and release your Personal Information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others' rights, property, or safety. We may also need to share some Personal Information with other parties, such as potential buyers of some or all of our business or during a re-structuring. We will typically anonymize information, but this may not always be possible. The recipient of the information will be bound by confidentiality obligations.

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your Personal Information to any other third party unless we provide you with advance notice, except as described in this Policy. However, non-Personal Information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
