In addition to this Privacy Policy, please read our terms of use for our websites. By accepting them when registering on our websites you agree to their terms and conditions.
Changes to Our Privacy Policy
Because we continuously develop our websites and take advantage of technologies to improve the services we provide, our Privacy Policies may change from time to time. We will publish any amended privacy policy on our websites. We encourage you to refer to this Privacy Policy from time to time to stay abreast of our most current privacy policy practices. If you are a registered user of our websites, we will notify you by email of any changes to our Privacy Policy using the most current email address you have provided to us. All changes or revisions to our Privacy Policy will take effect immediately for new users, and 30 days after they have been communicated to you as a registered user, unless you dissent within this period. Your continued access and use of our websites will constitute your acceptance of any changes or revisions to our Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, process and protect your personal data as you interact with us online and through our customer and technical support. This Privacy Policy explains:
You can visit our websites without having to disclose your personal data. Forever 21 collects data that you provide to us or that we learn about you from your use of our websites or shopping at our stores. We receive and store data you enter on our websites, provide to us at our stores, or give to us in any other way. For example, you may provide data to us when you register on our websites or sign-in, search, add items to your shopping cart, pay for an item, participate in a survey, contest or promotion, apply for a job, request to receive our marketing materials, or communicate with Forever 21's customer service. As a result of those actions, you might supply us with such personal data as your name, address, phone number, email address, payment information or personal shopping and product preferences. When you apply for a job with us, you may provide to us your name, address, phone number, email address, previous work experience, references and other personal data about your background and experience.
We also automatically receive and store certain types of data about the interaction with our websites, the services and advertising, including your shortened IP address, browser type and operation system as well as clickstream and weblog information whenever you visit our websites.
We might also receive information about you from other sources, such as in providing you special offers from selected third parties (if you consented to this) that we think will be of interest to you, and we may add that information to your account information.
We use data we have collected about you to provide you with our services, the utmost shopping experience, the most up to date fashion and accessories, and personal style news. If you apply for a job with us, we use the data to evaluate your application and consider you for employment. If you participate in a survey, contest, or promotion, we use the data you provide to improve our services and determine your eligibility for any prizes. We will not sell your personal data to any third party. We do not disclose your personal data to unaffiliated third parties or to our affiliates which may want to offer you their own products and services unless you have requested or authorized us to do so.
We may share your personal data with third parties or affiliates of Forever 21 where it is necessary for us to complete a transaction or perform some other activity requested by you.
We may disclose your personal data to third parties or affiliates of Forever 21 with whom we have contracted to perform services on our behalf. All companies that act on our behalf are contractually obligated to keep the personal data we provide to them confidential and to use the personal data we share only to provide the services we ask them to perform.
We may disclose personal data of our customers as permitted or required by law, such as in connection with a subpoena or similar legal proceedings or in required reports to government (prosecution) authorities within the framework of financial audits, and insurance and risk management records, or in connection with a merger, acquisition or insolvency, as specified below. We may disclose your data to prevent fraud and other crimes and to assert rights under our contracts with you.
We try to provide you with the information you need about the way our websites use your data and how the data is shared to enable you to make informed reasonable choices with respect to any interaction. Forever 21 collects and uses your personal data in several ways:
Our internal data security policies restrict access to customers' personal data to authorized employees and approved contractors. Authorized employees and approved contractors may use our customers' personal data for Forever 21's business purposes only. Our employees are bound by Forever 21's policies that require them to maintain the confidentiality of our customers' personal data. Employees who violate these requirements are subject to disciplinary action which may even include a termination.
We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural security measures that are designed to protect our customers' personal data. For example, for the security of your online visit to our websites, we make use of firewalls, encryption techniques and/or authentication procedures. The details of your payment method are handled according to the respective industry security standards. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be absolutely secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal data, Forever 21 cannot ensure or warrant the security of any data you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. In the event of a breach of the confidentiality or security of your personal data, we will notify you as necessary and to the extent possible so you can take appropriate protective steps. Unless you indicate otherwise, we may notify you in such cases using the email address you provided to us when you registered with our websites.
We may use "cookies" to collect or store certain data. A cookie is a small piece of information that a website stores on a personal computer and which it can later retrieve. There are two types of cookies. Session cookies are deleted from your computer when you close your web browser. Persistent cookies remain stored on your computer even after your web browser is closed. We may use cookies for administrative purposes, for example, to store our customers' preferences for certain kinds of products or to store a password so that you do not have to enter it every time you visit our website in order to analyze the use of the website and thus to improve the quality of the website. The cookies will not contain data that enables anyone to contact our customers via telephone, email, or any other means.

The revocation period is observed by timely sending the declaration of revocation or dispatching the item.
The declaration of revocation shall be directed to the following address:

As an alternative, you may bring your claim in your local "small claims" court, if permitted by that small claims court's rules and as long as such matter is only pending in that court. You may bring claims only on your own behalf. Neither you nor Forever 21 will participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration for any claims covered by this agreement.

This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. In the event the American Arbitration Association is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within one hundred and sixty (160) days of filing the case, then either Forever 21 or you can elect to have the arbitration administered instead by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction.
