Even if you do not send us any Personal Information, we collect certain non-Personal Information about how you use our Site. This information is used for statistical purposes and to provide personalized marketing content.

Our Site contains links to third-party websites, including websites of our business partners. We do not own, operate or control the websites of such third-parties. Accordingly, this Privacy Policy does not apply to any websites maintained or operated by third-parties for the collection, use, storage, disclosure, or other processing of your Personal Information. When you click on those links, you will go to a third-party website where you will be subject to that website’s privacy statement and we encourage you to read that policy statement.

3. Sharing of your Personal Information

Brooks Brothers does not sell your Personal Information to third parties, and will not sell your Personal Information to third parties. At times, we may share your Personal Information as follows:

• With our group of companies, affiliates, and subsidiaries;
• With third-party vendors, consultants, and other service providers who are working on our behalf and require access to your information to carry out that work, such as to process billing, provide customer support, etc. We process and share your Personal Information to fulfill your requests and meet our legitimate business and legal objectives. When we disclose Personal Information to external entities to perform support services for us, we establish by contract that they may access your Personal Information only for the purposes of performing those support services;
• With other persons with whom you have requested, we share information in order to fulfill services you request;
• With providers of data cooperative marketing services that serve vetted marketers, which we refer to as data cooperatives. Data cooperatives use the information provided, such as name, postal address and transaction data, by participating marketers to provide more relevant marketing to consumers and reduce wasted marketing expenses. We engage data cooperatives for the purpose of better marketing to existing and prospective customers. More specifically, we share this information with data cooperatives so that they can analyze buying patterns and determine what sort of products are likely to appeal to you and provide customization. We exclude sharing personal information of California residents to data cooperatives. If you do not wish us to share your information in this way for marketing purposes, please contact us through any of the various means set forth below.
• In connection with, or during the negotiation of, any merger, sale of company stock or assets, financing, acquisition, divestiture, or dissolution of all or a portion of our business;
• If we believe that disclosure is reasonably necessary (a) to comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request; (b) to enforce or comply with our Terms of Use or other applicable agreements or policies, (c) to protect our rights or property, or the security or integrity of our services, or (d) to protect us, users of our services or the public from harm or potentially prohibited or illegal activities; and
• With others, for any purpose allowed by law.

Location of Servers and Transfer of Information to the United States.

Our Site is hosted by servers in the United States and we operate our business globally. Some countries may not provide the same level of data protection as your home country. If you are located, for example, in European Economic Area or Switzerland (collectively, “Europe”), your Personal Information will be transferred to the United States and possibly to other jurisdictions (e.g., to the location of a property for which you have requested information), which are not considered to provide an adequate level of protection under your local data protection laws. We, therefore, provide appropriate protections for cross-border transfers as required by applicable law. For transfers from Europe to the United States, or other non-European jurisdictions, we have implemented the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, and other approved mechanisms to protect Personal Information, as required by applicable law. As permitted by data protection laws, you may request a copy of the suitable mechanisms we have in place by contacting us as detailed below.

4. Legal grounds for the collection, use, sharing, and other processing of Personal Information

Certain jurisdictions, including those in Europe, require the identification of the legal grounds for the collection, use, sharing, and other processing of Personal Information. Brooks Brothers relies on the following legal grounds for its collection, use, sharing, and other processing of Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy:

• Necessary to provide information or otherwise carry out the performance of a contract with you as an individual;
• Our legitimate interests, including:
• Performance of the contract with you;
• Implementation and operation of a group-wide matrix structure and group-wide information sharing;
• Customer relationship management and other forms of marketing and analytics;
• Fraud prevention, misuse of company IT systems, or money laundering;
• Whistleblower scheme operations;
• Physical, IT, and network perimeter security;
• Internal investigations; and
• Intended mergers and acquisitions.
• Compliance with legal obligations and/or defense against legal claims, including those in the area of labor law, social security, and data protection, tax, and corporate compliance laws;
• Protection of the vital interests of any individual;
• Performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in Brooks Brothers; and
• Consent, as permitted by applicable law.

5. Your rights concerning your Personal Information

You have the following choices regarding our use and disclosure of your Personal Information:

• Marketing Communications. If you no longer wish to receive any marketing communications, remain on a mailing list to which you previously subscribed or receive any other communication from Brooks Brothers, please follow the unsubscribe link in the relevant communications or contact us using the link at the bottom of the message. Even after you opt-out or update your marketing preferences, however, we may still contact you for transactional or informational purposes. These include, for example, customer service issues, returns or product-related inquiries, surveys or recalls, or any questions regarding a specific order.
• Cookies and Similar Technologies. Please review your browser or computer settings for certain cookies and see below to exercise certain choices regarding cookies.

Privacy Notice for California Residents

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) additionally affords rights to you with respect to your Personal Information. Please note that other sections of this Privacy Policy apply to California residents, and this notice supplements the information contained in the Privacy Policy. Please read the Privacy Policy in its entirety.

Your Rights under the CCPA

• California residents have the right, following a verifiable request, to access (twice in a 12-month period, free of charge) the categories and specific pieces of Personal Information Brooks Brothers has collected about you, the categories of sources from which the Personal Information is collected, and the business purpose for collecting the Personal Information for the 12-month period prior to the request (“Right to Know”).
• California residents have the right to request that we delete their Personal Information we have collected or maintained, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the CCPA (“Right to Request Deletion”). Please note that we may not be able to honor deletion requests in all cases, including when your Personal Information is subject to a statutory exception. Those exceptions include, for example, when we need to retain the information to: (i) complete a transaction or otherwise perform a contract between us and the consumer; (ii) detect or protect against security incidents or fraud; (iii) comply with legal obligations; and/or (iv) as otherwise set forth as an applicable exception under the CCPA or other relevant privacy laws.

Brooks Brothers will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights afforded by the CCPA, which is further in accordance with California residents’ rights under that title. Brooks Brothers’ loyalty program, My Brooks Rewards, is in compliance with the CCPA, including because (1) participation is voluntary; (2) the program is not unjust, unreasonable, coercive, or usurious in nature; and (3) we do not sell the Personal Information of consumers, including the Personal Information collected as part of our loyalty program. You have a Right to Request Deletion and opt out of our loyalty program at any time.

Personal Information Collection and Purposes of Use

The chart below describes the categories of Personal Information we have collected from California residents and, for each such category, the categories of sources of the information, the business or commercial purposes for collection and the categories of third parties with whom we share the information. This chart is meant to be read along with the entirety of the Privacy Policy.

We have not sold any California residents’ Personal Information to third parties in the preceding 12 months. As of January 1, 2020, we do not and will not sell California residents’ Personal Information.

Exercising California Residents’ Privacy Rights

California residents can submit a data request to exercise these various rights (including the Right to Know and the Right to Request Deletion) in any of the following manners:

1. via phone at (800) 274-1815
2. via email at service@brooksbrothers.com
3. The web form accessible here.
4. In participating retail stores

Process for Verifying a Consumer’s Request

We will verify any consumer’s request to exercise the Right to Know or the Right to Request Deletion. In order to adequately protect your Personal Information, we will verify your identity either by using a third-party identification verification service or matching the identifying information provided by you to the Personal Information that we maintain already on our systems. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. If we are able to verify your request, we will provide a response within 45 days, or notify you that we require a further 45-day extension in order to provide the requested information.

You may also authorize an agent to submit a request on your behalf, so long as you provide the authorized agent written permission to request on your behalf, and your authorized agent is able to provide appropriate verification with our third-party identification service. If your authorized agent does not submit proof that they have been authorized by you to submit verified requests for disclosure and deletion, we reserve the right to deny such a request that we have received and will explain to your authorized agent why we have denied such request.

Should you need access to this policy in an alternative format due to a disability, please contact us through the methods provided above.

European Union and European Economic Area Privacy Rights

Europe and certain other non-US jurisdictions maintain local data protection regulations that confer certain data protection rights on individuals. Brooks Brothers will address those rights where required by applicable laws. If applicable, and you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us as set out below.

1. Right of access:?You have the right to obtain from us confirmation as to whether or not Personal Information concerning you is processed, and, to request access to the Personal Information. The access information includes, among other things, the purposes of the processing, the categories of Personal Information concerned, and the recipients or categories of recipient to whom the Personal Information have been or will be disclosed. This is not, however, an absolute right, and the interests of other individuals may restrict your right of access. You may have the right to obtain a copy of their Personal Information undergoing processing.
2. Right to rectification:?You have the right to obtain from us the rectification of inaccurate Personal Information about you. Depending on the purposes of the processing, you may have the right to have incomplete Personal Information completed, including by means of providing a supplementary statement.
3. Right to erasure (right to be forgotten):?Under certain circumstances, you have the right to obtain from us the erasure of Personal Information concerning you, and we may be obligated to erase that Personal Information.
4. Right to restriction of processing:?Under certain circumstances, you have the right to obtain from us restriction of processing your Personal Information. In that case, your data will be marked and may only be processed by us for certain limited purposes. As Brooks Brothers processes and uses your Personal Information primarily for purposes of carrying out the contract for a services relationship with your employer, Brooks Brothers will have a legitimate interest for the processing which will override your restriction request, unless the restriction request relates to marketing activities.
5. Right to data portability:?Under certain circumstances, you have the right to receive the Personal Information about you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and you have the right to transmit that data to another entity without hindrance from us.
6. Right to object:?Under certain circumstances, you have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of your Personal Information by us, and we can be required to no longer process your Personal Information.

Where permitted by applicable law, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

6. Security

The security and confidentiality of your Personal Information matters to us. That’s why we have adequate technical, administrative, and physical controls in place to protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, and disclosure. For example, we provide the option to encrypt all information you submit to us using Secure Sockets Layer (“SSL”) technology that helps protect information during transport to our Site. We also review our security procedures periodically to consider appropriate new technology and updated methods. Even so, despite our reasonable efforts, no security measure is ever perfect or impenetrable, and we urge you to similarly take efforts to protect your personal information.

7. Data Retention

Depending on the Service you require, we will retain your Personal Information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy or as set out in our contracts with our business partners, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by a law that applies to us.

8. Children

This Site is not intended or directed to children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect any Personal Information, or knowingly track the use of our Site, from children. If Brooks Brothers has actual knowledge that Personal Information about a child under 16 years old has been collected, then Brooks Brothers will take the appropriate steps to delete such Personal Information. If you believe that a child under age 16 (or other age applicable in a different jurisdiction) has provided Personal Information to us on this Site without the consent of a parent or guardian, or if you wish to delete your child’s Personal Information collected from this Site, please notify us at service@brooksbrothers.com.

You can change your cookie settings at any time. Some browsers have a “Do Not Track” feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. These browser features are still not uniform, so we are not currently set up to respond to those signals.

This may also include ads served on other companies’ websites. These ads may be based on information collected by us or third parties.

19. Security of Personal Information

We have implemented measures in an effort to safeguard the personal information in our custody and control, including only providing access to personal information to employees and authorized service providers who require such information for the purposes described in this Security & Privacy Statement. We maintain reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards in an effort to protect against unauthorized access, use, modification and disclosure of personal information in our custody and control.

To provide you with an increased level of security, online access to certain personal information may be protected with a password you select. We strongly recommend that you do not disclose your password to anyone. We will never ask you for your password in any unsolicited communication.

When you place an order on our Website, Brooks Brothers encrypts your order and registration information by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. SSL is designed to avoid the decoding of your information by anyone other than Brooks Brothers.

Your personal information is maintained in electronic records on our servers located in the United States. We only keep your personal information as long as necessary for the purposes we collected it, or as otherwise required by law.

20. Children's Privacy

We will never knowingly request personal information from anyone under the age of 13 without prior verifiable parental consent. If we become aware that a subscriber is under the age of 13 and has registered without prior verifiable parental consent, we will remove his or her personally identifiable registration information from our files. Please note: we may nevertheless maintain a record of that person's name and address in a "do not register" file to avoid subsequent registration by a child under the age of 13.

21. Changes to this Statement

Brooks Brothers may update this Security & Privacy Statement from time to time. When we make changes, we will post them here. We will treat your personal information in accordance with the Security & Privacy Statement in place at the time of collection, or as you otherwise consent.
