6) Financial Incentives Disclosure (Rewards Programs / Communications Channels)
From time to time, Fruit of the Loom provides special offers and benefits ("Financial Incentives") to consumers who participate in our "Rewards Programs" (e.g. Spalding MVP, The Athletic Club, Fruit Family Rewards, Feel Fabulous Rewards) or opt to receive communications from us via email, text, chat, and social media ("Communications Channels"). The information we request from consumers when they sign up may include email address, name, phone number, birthday, gender, product preferences, city / state, or other information that allows us to personalize our communications. Consumers may opt in online and can opt out of the programs or communications at any time by contacting our Customer Service team or by using the unsubscribe methods provided in a communication channel, such as unsubscribe links in email communications or replying "Stop" to text messages.
Consumers who participate in a Rewards Program or opt to receive communications from us via Communication Channels may receive Financial Incentives, such as discounts on products, discounts on shipping, and notices of new products and sales promotions, depending on the program they are participating in. We do not assign a monetary value to the personal information participants provide us by enrolling in Financial Incentive programs, but a good faith estimate of the value is the comparison of the numbers and amounts of purchases made by Rewards Program members and enrollees in Communication Channels to similarly situated customers who do not participate in the Financial Incentive programs. The value of an individual participant's information will vary depending on whether the participant takes advantage of a Financial Incentive. For example, a percentage discount offer will be valued differently depending on how much a customer purchases with the discount.

Fruit of the Loom will respond to requests in accordance with applicable law if it can verify the identity of the individual submitting the request. California Consumers can exercise their rights in the following ways:
To opt out of the "selling and sharing" of your Personal Information for targeted social media and online advertising ("cross context advertising"), click the Privacy Preferences link located at the bottom of the Site's homepage. Your opt-out request may be processed differently depending on whether you are logged into your account. If you are logged in on a consumer-focused Site, your preference will be associated with your account, and the device on which you exercised your choice. When you log in from another browser, it too will be automatically opted out. If you are not logged into your account or are on a business-focused Site, your request will only be associated with that one browser. After opting out of the selling and sharing of your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, you may still see ads from us; however, they will not be tailored to you.
We follow the processes described below to verify the person making a request to know or a request to delete is the person about whom we have collected personal information.
The verification process that we follow will depend on the nature of your request as described below.
We have implemented the following additional procedures when verifying the identity of requestors:
Consumers have the right not to be subject to discriminatory treatment by Fruit of the Loom for exercising their privacy rights under applicable law, and Fruit of the Loom will not discriminate on that basis. However, Fruit of the Loom may charge a consumer a different price or rate or provide a different level or quality of goods if the difference is reasonably related to the value provided to the consumer by the consumer's Personal Information (see Financial Incentives Disclosure above).
You may designate an authorized agent to exercise your right to know or your right to delete by submitting to us a completed "Authorized Agent Designation" form. You can obtain the designation form by contacting us at DataPrivacy@fotlinc.com.
If an authorized agent submits a request to know or a request to delete on your behalf, the authorized agent must submit with the request either (a) a power of attorney that is valid under California law, or (b) a document signed by you that authorizes the authorized agent to submit the request on your behalf. In addition, we may ask you to follow the applicable process described above for verifying your identity.
Under California law, California Consumers can request information from us whether we have disclosed Personal Information to any third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes. We will not sell your Personal Information to, or share it with, third-party companies for their direct marketing purposes without your consent. California Consumers desiring to request further information about our compliance with these laws or who have questions or concerns about our privacy practices and policies are welcome to contact us using the contact information below.
We do not honor Do Not Track requests; however, certain third party companies that assist us with website analytics may do so. If you notify us of your privacy preferences through a Global Privacy Control ("GPC"), we will honor your request each time it is received with respect to the browser that sends us the signal.
We do not engage in the collection of Personal Information about your online activities over time across third-party websites or online services.

We work with third party companies to assist us with website analytics, such as evaluating the use and operation of our Sites so that we can continue to enhance the Sites and the information contained within.
Please note that our online and email advertising-related vendors, including but not limited to, Facebook, Google, PayPal, TikTok, and Twitter, may use cookies, pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFs, or other similar technologies in connection with the Sites to help manage our online and email advertising campaigns and strengthen the effectiveness of such campaigns. For example, if a vendor has placed a unique cookie on your computer, the vendor may use pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFs or other similar technologies to recognize the cookie during your visit to the Sites and to learn which of our online advertisements may have brought you to our Sites, and the vendor may provide us with such other information for our use.
We may use third-party advertising companies to target advertisements to you on our Sites, across the web, on your mobile device and on any of your other devices, based on the personal and other information we have collected from and about you, as well as information relating to your and other users' visits to this and other websites and online services. To do so, these companies may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser (including through the use of pixel tags) or recognize an identifier associated with your mobile device.

The security of your Personal Information is important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the Personal Information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it, and to guard that information against loss, misuse or alteration. When you enter Personal Information on our registration or order forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). Other than the verification process prompted by your request, we do not send e-mails asking you to provide or confirm Personal Information. If you receive such an e-mail, please forward it to DataPrivacy@fotlinc.com immediately and then delete it.
Please note, however, that no usage or method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we use commercially reasonable means to protect your Personal Information, we are mindful of the pervasiveness and dangers of spyware, adware, and other threats, so cannot guarantee the absolute security of Personal Information.
