Fraud Protection and Compliance with Law
We may disclose any information, including personally
identifiable information, we deem necessary, in our sole
discretion, to comply with any applicable law, regulation,

information, including personally identifiable information,
with other companies and organizations for credit fraud

We may retain other companies and individuals to perform
functions consistent with our Privacy Policy on our behalf.
Examples include customer support specialists, web hosting
companies, fulfillment companies (e.g., companies that
fill product orders or coordinate mailings), data analysis
firms and email service providers. Such third parties
may be provided with access to personally identifiable
information needed to perform their functions, but may
not use such information for any other purpose.

If you elect to participate in any promotions, sweepstakes,
surveys, questionnaires or other events during your visit

5. Cookies, IP Addresses, Pixel Tags and Tracking Technology
We may place a "cookie" on your computer's hard
drive so we can recognize you as a return user and personalize
your experience. A cookie is a piece of data that enables
us to track and target your preferences. The cookie will be
stored on your computer's hard drive until you remove it.
We may also use temporary or "session" cookies to
help you shop. These cookies will expire when you place an
order. You can have your browser notify you of, or automatically
reject, cookies. If you reject our cookies, you may still
use the Site, but you may be limited in the use of some of
the features. Some of our business partners may also use cookies
on the Site. However, we have no access to, or control over,
these cookies and do not accept any responsibility for such
use. In addition, we may use IP addresses to analyze trends,
administer the Site, track traffic patterns, and gather demographic
information for aggregate use, as well as in combination with
your personally identifiable information for credit fraud
protection and risk reduction.
Similarly, when you visit this Site or view one of our emails,
we may use pixel tags (also called "clear" gifs),
tracking links and/or similar technology to note some of the
pages you visit on our Site and personalize your experience.
We may also use pixel tags to determine what types of email
your browser supports. We may use the information collected
through pixel tags, tracking links and similar technology
in combination with your personally identifiable information.
6. Use of Aggregate Information
We may use the information you provide in aggregate (non-personally
identifiable) form for internal business purposes, such as
generating statistics and developing marketing plans. We may
collect, store or accumulate certain non-personally identifiable
information concerning your use of the Site, such as information
regarding which of our pages are most popular. We may share
or transfer non-personally identifiable information with or
to our affiliates, licensees and partners.
7. Links
This Privacy Policy applies only to the information collected
on this Site. Our Site may contain links to or from other
websites and you should be aware that we are not responsible
for the privacy practices of other websites. We encourage
you to read the privacy policies of other websites linked
to the Site.
8. Security
LATHER seeks to protect the security of your personal information
both online and offline. All credit card transactions are
secure. Every on-line order is encrypted and sent through
a secure server, using SSL technology to prevent information
from being intercepted.
Confidential information such as your credit card number will
be used only to fulfill your order. To protect your privacy,
we will ask you to enter your credit card number and expiration
date each time you place an order with us. This way, even
if someone else accesses the account information stored on
your computer, they won't be able to use your credit card.
9. Notification of Policy Changes
LATHER reserves the right to revise this Privacy Policy in
the future by posting changes at this location and we may
make changes at any time without notification. Please note
that LATHER’s guidelines for using your personally identifiable
