Who we share your data with

The website pacific-brands.com is committed to protecting the privacy of personal information provided by users of the website. The website will not sell, share, or rent this information to any third party, except as outlined in this privacy policy.

The website may collect personal information from users in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, when users visit the website, subscribe to the newsletter, and in connection with other activities, services, features, or resources made available on the website. Users may be asked for, as appropriate, name, email address, mailing address, phone number, or other information. Users may, however, visit the website anonymously.

The website will collect personal information from users only if they voluntarily submit such information. Users can always refuse to supply personal information, except that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that submit information on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

3rd party data

The website may use third-party service providers to help operate the website and to assist in the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information. These service providers are required to protect the privacy of personal information and are restricted from using or disclosing personal information for any purpose other than as directed by the website.
