Securing Your Information |

Additionally all orders are then screened for suspect information.

Log Files / IP Addresses
When you visit our Site, we automatically log your IP address (the unique address which identifies your computer on the internet) which is automatically recognised by our web server. We use IP addresses to help us administer this web site and to collect broad demographic information for aggregate use. We do not link IP addresses to personally identifiable information.
Information Placed On Your Computer
We may store some information (commonly known as a "cookie") on your computer when you look at our web site. This information facilitates your use of our web site and helps us to understand how our web site is used. You can erase or block cookies from your computer if you want to (your help screen or manual should tell you how to do this), but certain Maidenform services may not work correctly or at all if you set your browser not to accept cookies.
Keeping Our Records Accurate
We aim to keep our information about you as accurate as possible. If you would like to review or change the details you have supplied us with you may do so at any time by using the contact us page on this web site.
Third Party Sites
We cannot be responsible for the privacy policies and practices of other third party sites even if you access them using links from this web site and recommend that you check the policy of each site you visit. In addition, if you linked to this web site from a third party site, we cannot be responsible for the privacy policies and practices of the owners or operators of that third party site and recommend that you check the policy of that third party site and contact its owner or operator if you have any concerns or questions.
Transferring Your Personal Information Outside the European Economic Area
We may need, as part of the services offered to you though this web site, to communicate your details outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"). By way of example, this may happen if any of our servers are from time to time located in a country outside of the EEA or one of our service providers is located in a country outside of the EEA. As we are part of an international group of companies we may also need to share information between our group companies which are located in countries worldwide. These countries may not have similar data protection laws to the EEA. If we do transfer your information outside of the EEA in this way, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that your privacy rights continue to be protected.
In addition, if you use our services while you are outside the EEA, your information may be transferred outside the EEA in order to provide you with those services.
Disclosing Your Information to Others
Other than the disclosures referred to in this policy, we will not disclose any personal information without your permission unless we are legally entitled or obliged to do so (for example, if required to do so by Court order or for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime).
We will only disclose your personal information to a third party either as part of a reorganisation or a sale of the assets of a Maidenform group company, or having ensured that steps have first been taken to ensure that your privacy rights continue to be protected.

If at any time you would like to contact us with your views about our privacy practices, or with any enquiry relating to your personal information, you can do so by sending an e-mail to us at orders@maidenform.co.uk.
