KEY POINTS
Please review our full Privacy Policy below before using our website, but here is a summary of some important information:
How Does Real Man in Red Use the Information it Collects?
When we collect or receive information about our users and customers, we primarily use this information in connection with your relationship with Real Man in Red, including making it possible for you to use the features of our website and to provide you with special offers and content we think will most interest you.
Does Real Man in Red Share Information with Other Third Parties?
Real Man in Red does not share your information with other third parties.
How Does Real Man in Red Work with Third-Party Analytics and Advertising Companies?
We work with online advertising and analytics providers to serve our ads online and provide us with information regarding traffic on the website. The companies with which we work may use information about your activities on the website – and other websites and services you visit across the various devices you use – to recognize you and your devices across the internet and to provide you targeted advertising based upon your interests. Some of these companies participate in self-regulatory programs that allow you to opt-out of having information about you used for targeted advertising purposes, and you may access those opt-outs at optout.networkadvertising.org and optout.aboutads.info
What if I am a Resident of California?
If you are a resident of California, please see “Your California Privacy Rights.”
INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Through various features on the Channels, we may collect personal information, which is information that is linked to a specific, identifiable individual (“Personal Information”), such as first and last name, email addresses, postal addresses, and telephone numbers. We may also collect other information about you, such as payment card data or other payment information, information about your purchases and other transactions with us, demographic information (e.g., your gender, ZIP code/postal code, or similar information), information about the device you are using to access our website, and information about your preferences and interests. We may also offer features through which you may choose to provide us with information that may be considered to include biometric identifiers (e.g., imaging used to help fit clothing). We may take your Personal Information and make it non-personally identifiable, either by combining it with information about other individuals and/or by hashing the information or otherwise removing characteristics that make the information personally identifiable directly to you.
If we combine demographic, preference or similar information with the Personal Information we collect, we will treat the combined information as Personal Information under this Privacy Policy. The information we collect may be provided by you, or may be collected automatically.
Information You Provide.
We may ask you to provide certain information to us (including your Personal Information) when you use the website. For example, you may give us your information when making a purchase or completing another transaction, interacting with customer service (including live chat), and through interactive features. You may choose not to provide certain information; however, choosing to do so may prevent you from being able to take advantage of some of our offered features or from conducting transactions.
Community Forums and User Submission
Our website may provide you the opportunity to submit information to us, through interactive features, and through other communication functionality (“Community Forums”). You may choose, through such features or otherwise, to submit or post “User Submissions” (which means any and all information and content that you submit or post to our website, including, without limitation, photos, audio, video, messages, text, files, or other content you provide us and as further described in our Terms of Use). Some features, such as user reviews, may be operated by a third party and your postings also may be subject to the third party’s privacy policy and terms of use.
Please note that certain information, such as your name and/or place of residence, may be publicly displayed on our website along with your User Submissions. Your use of any Community Forum is subject to our Terms of Use, including without limitation the “User Comments & Postings” section. Note that anything you submit through a public-facing Community Forum may be made public – others will have access to your User Submission and may use it or share it with third parties. We are not responsible for the actions of third parties and the use of your information and other User Submissions by such third parties is not subject to the protections of this Privacy Policy.
Social Networking Features
Functionality on the Channels may permit interactions that you initiate between our website and a third-party service such as Facebook (“Social Networking Features”). Examples of Social Networking Features include enabling you to “like” or “share” content from our website or to “like” or “share” our page on a third-party service; to automatically or selectively show your social media posts on our website; and to otherwise connect the our website to a third-party service. If you choose to share content or to otherwise post information through our website to a third-party service, or vice versa, that information may be publicly displayed. Similarly, if you post information on a third-party service that references us (for example, by using a hashtag associated with us in your post), your post may be published on our website or otherwise in accordance with the terms of that third party. Also, both we and the third party may have access to certain information about you and your use of our website and the third-party service. In addition, we may receive information about you if other users of a third-party service give us access to their profiles and you are one of their “connections” or information about you is otherwise accessible through your profile or similar page on a social networking or other third-party service. The information we collect in connection with Social Networking Features is subject to this Privacy Policy. The information collected and stored by the third party remains subject to the third party’s privacy practices, including whether the third party continues to share information with us, the types of information shared, and your choices with regard to what is visible to others on that third-party service.
If you submit User Submissions or use Social Networking Features, we may publish that information or content online or offline, including in connection with our advertising, marketing, publicity, and promotional activities.
Information Provided by Third Parties
We may obtain information, including Personal Information and demographic information about you from third parties, including our joint marketing partners, third-party websites, affiliate program service providers, the bank that operates our private label credit card program, users who provide us with information about others (i.e. purchasing a gift card for someone else), or other unrelated third parties. We may combine information about you that we have with information we obtain from business partners or other companies. In those cases, we will apply this Privacy Policy to the combined information.
Send-to-a-Friend Features
We may make available on our website a “send-to-a-friend,” “refer a friend,” “wishlist” or similar function that permits you to send website content directly to a third party through our website. If you send a friend a communication using such functionality, the information you provide about your friend (e.g., name and email address) is used to facilitate the communication and is not used for any other marketing purpose unless we obtain consent from that person.
Information the Channels Automatically Collect When You Interact with Us.
Real Man in Red and our third-party service providers, including analytics providers, advertisers, and third-party content providers, may automatically or passively receive and record certain information about your use of our website whenever you visit or interact with the website, such as: your IP address, mobile device identifier, or similar device identifier; browser type; type of device you use to access our website; the domain name from which you arrived at the website; the time of day you visit our website; Location Data (defined below); and specific pages or areas of our website through which you navigate and how you interact with those pages or areas (“Usage Information”). This information helps us create a better experience for our users and provide you with targeted advertising. Please see the “Online Advertising and Analytics Providers” section below for more information about how to control the use of your Personal Information for the purposes of advertising.
We may capture and record or infer certain location data regarding your use of our website and your travels (“Location Data”). We may link that Location Data to other information that you provide to us or that may be accessed in connection with your use of our website. We may directly collect precise Location Data from the device you use to access the website if you have opted-in to such collection through our mobile application or your browser. You may be able to turn off the collection of precise Location Data through your device settings. However, please note that we may still be able to infer your approximate location through other information we collect, such as IP address.
The methods used to collect Usage Information may include:
Cookies and Local Storage. “Cookies” and local storage are pieces of information (data files) transferred to an individual’s browser on their device when the device is used to visit a Channel. These technologies are able to store a unique identifier for a device to allow a certain Internet site to recognize the device whenever the device is used to visit the site. These technologies may be used for many purposes by us and our third-party service providers, such as automatically collecting Usage Information, enabling features, remembering your preferences, and providing you with targeted advertising elsewhere online. If you do not want to accept cookies, you can block them by adjusting the settings on your Internet browser. You can find more information about cookies and how they work at www.allaboutcookies.org.
Certain browsers or browser add-ons, such as Adobe Flash, may provide additional local data storage mechanisms that are used in a manner similar to cookies, and some of the content included on our Channels may make use of this local storage. For example, a Flash cookie is a data file placed on a device via the Adobe Flash plug-in that may be built into or downloaded by you onto your device. Flash cookies may be used for various purposes, including, without limitation, enabling a Flash feature and remembering your preferences. For more information about Flash and the privacy choices Adobe offers, visit http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html. If you choose to disable cookies, to adjust your Flash privacy settings on your device, or to otherwise restrict local storage, some features of the Channels may not function properly, including the shopping cart and ordering processes.
Web Beacons. Small graphic images or other web programming code called web beacons (also known as “pixel tags,” “1×1 GIFs,” or “clear GIFs”) may be included in our web pages and email messages. Web beacons may be invisible to you, but any electronic image or other web programming code inserted into a web page or email can act as a web beacon. Web beacons or similar technologies may be used for a number of purposes, including, without limitation, to count visitors to a Channel, to monitor how users navigate the Channel, to count how many emails that were sent were actually opened or to count how many particular links were actually viewed.
Embedded Scripts. An embedded script is programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with the Channels, such as the links you click on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto your device from our server or a third-party service provider, is active only while you are connected to a Channel, and is deactivated or deleted thereafter.
In addition, we may use a variety of other technologies that collect similar information for security and fraud detection purposes.
CHILDREN
Our website in which posts this privacy policy is primarily e-commerce in nature and is intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children younger than the age of 13 unless doing so is in compliance with applicable law, including, for residents of the United States, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act.

We may share the information we have collected about you (including Personal Information) in the circumstances described below or elsewhere in this Privacy Policy, as disclosed at the time you provide information or otherwise with your consent.
Affiliated and Unaffiliated Third Parties for Direct Marketing
Real Man in Red will not share your personal Information with unaffiliated third parties as well (which may include advertising member networks and other data cooperatives) for their own direct marketing purposes and those of such unaffiliated third parties’ own clients.
Third Parties Providing Services on Our Behalf
We may use third-party service providers to perform certain services on our behalf, such as hosting our website or website features, delivering packages, processing credit card payments, processing transactions and fulfilling orders, removing repetitive information from customer lists, providing customer service, providing website usage analytics, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), providing targeted advertising, sending email, direct mail or other communications, providing marketing assistance and data analysis or enhancement, or performing other administrative services. We may give these service providers access to your information (including Personal Information) so that they can carry out the services they are performing for you or for Real Man in Red.
Business Transfers and Transitions
In the event Real Man in Red goes through a transition (such as a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy or sale of all or a portion of its assets, including, without limitation, during the course of any due diligence process), your information (including your Personal Information) will likely be among the assets transferred. By providing your Personal Information, you agree that we may transfer such information to the acquiring entity without your further consent.
Sweepstakes, Contests, & Promotions
We may offer sweepstakes, contests, and other promotions (any, a “Promotion”) that may require registration. By participating in a Promotion, you are agreeing to the provisions, conditions, or official rules that govern that Promotion, which may contain specific requirements of you (including, except where prohibited by law, allowing the sponsor(s) of the Promotion to use your name, voice, likeness or other indicia of persona in advertising or marketing materials). If you choose to enter a Promotion, Personal Information may be disclosed to third parties (including, without limitation, a co-sponsor) or the public in connection with the administration of such Promotion, including, without limitation, in connection with winner selection, prize fulfillment, and as required by law or permitted by the Promotion’s terms or official rules (such as on a winners list).
Administrative and Legal Reasons
Real Man in Red reserves the right to use or disclose any information (including Personal Information) as needed to satisfy any law, regulation or legal request; to protect the integrity of our website; to fulfill your requests; to cooperate in any law enforcement investigation, an investigation on a public safety matter, or an investigation into claims of intellectual-property infringement; to protect and defend the legal rights or property of Real Man in Red, our parent company, affiliates and shareholders, any website or its users, or any other party; or, in an emergency, to protect the health and safety of our users or the general public. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
THIRD-PARTY LINKS & CONTENT
Real Man in Red’s website may link to or incorporate websites, advertising or content hosted and served by third parties over which we have no control and which are governed by the privacy policies and business practices of those third parties, including the bank that operates our private-label credit card program. Real Man in Red is not responsible for the privacy practices or business practices of any third party.
ONLINE ADVERTISING AND ANALYTICS
We may work with network advertisers, ad agencies, analytics service providers, and other vendors to serve our advertisements on third-party websites, apps, and elsewhere online and to provide us with information regarding use of and traffic on our website (including without limitation the pages viewed and the actions users take when visiting our website) and the effectiveness of our advertisements. For example, if you click on an advertisement for Real Man in Red, our service provider(s) may be able to tell us the advertisement you clicked on and where you were viewing the advertisement. The advertisements you see may be served by one or more third parties, who may use information about your activities on the website, and other websites and services you visit across the various devices you use, to provide you targeted advertising based upon your interests. Our service providers may collect certain information about your visits to and activity on our website and other websites and services and may use this information to target advertising to you.
These service providers may set and access their own tracking technologies on your device (including without limitation cookies and web beacons) and may otherwise collect or have access to information about you (such as Usage Information and device identifier). Some of these parties may collect Personal Information over time when you visit our website or other online websites and services. Cookies and web beacons, including without limitation those set by third-party network advertisers, may be used to (among other things): target advertisements, prevent you from seeing the same advertisements too many times, and conduct research regarding the usefulness of certain advertisements to you. We may share certain information such as device identifiers, Usage Information, records of transactions you conduct on our website or offline, and de-identified information with third-party advertising companies, analytics providers, and other vendors for advertising and analytics purposes. In addition, we and our third-party service providers may use this information to perform matching with third-party cookies in order to provide targeted online marketing.
We use a variety of service providers to perform advertising and analytics services, and some of these companies may be members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) or Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”). You may wish to visit optout.networkadvertising.org, which provides information regarding targeted advertising and the opt-out procedures of NAI members. You may also want to visit optout.aboutads.info, which provides information regarding targeted advertising and offers an opt-out for DAA-participating companies.
We use Google Analytics, which uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze information about use of our website and report on activities and trends. This service may also collect information regarding the use of other websites, apps, and online resources. You can learn about Google’s practices by going to google.com/policies/privacy/partners, and opt out of them by downloading the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
In addition, we set our own cookie in coordination with our online advertising vendor (and its service providers) to assist us in determining which of our offers and advertisements to serve you on our website or elsewhere online. You may receive non-targeted advertisements while online.
HOW WE RESPOND TO “DO NOT TRACK” SIGNALS
Some Internet browsers may be configured to send “Do Not Track” signals to the online services that you visit. There is no consensus among industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context. Like many websites and online services, our website does not alter their practices when they receive a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit www.allaboutdnt.com.
SECURITY
We employ commercially reasonable security methods and technologies to help secure your Personal Information, including physical, technological, and organizational protections. However, no system can be guaranteed 100% secure. We therefore cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that you transmit to us, or that we transmit to you, or guarantee that it will be free from unauthorized access by third parties. You use the website and provide us with information at your own initiative and risk.

As a result, this information may be subject to access requests from governments, courts, or law enforcement in the United States and other countries according to laws in those jurisdictions.

We may require you to verify your identity before allowing you to access your Personal Information.
You can unsubscribe from our marketing emails through the opt-out mechanism included in each marketing email we send to you. You may also click here to opt-out of (a) our commercial email or direct-mail marketing messages, (b) having your Personal Information made available to affiliated companies for their direct marketing purposes, and/or (c) sharing of your Personal Information with unaffiliated third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

Note that we reserve the right to send you certain email or postal communications relating to your use of our website, service announcements, notices of changes to this Privacy Policy or our other terms, or similar administrative or transactional messages, and these transactional account messages may be unaffected if you choose to opt-out from marketing communications.
YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS
As stated above in this Privacy Policy, Real Man in Red does not share personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes (as defined by California Civil Code Section 1798.83) unless we give you choice (an opt-out) before sharing with those third parties.
