Some of the information above is collected on our websites through web browser cookies and other technologies (web beacons/gifs, pixels, page tags, script) that receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us or third parties that may direct you to our websites. We may use similar technologies to collect information when you use our applications. We use these tools for a variety of reasons, including to analyze and improve our websites and applications, or to remember your preferences and provide more personalized advertising. PAC uses third party advertising companies to display ads tailored to you based on how you browse and shop online, a practice commonly referred to as “interest-based” or “behavioral” advertising. We allow these third parties to collect certain information when you visit our websites or use our applications, including non-personally identifiable information (browser type, subject of advertisements clicks on, session IDs) and personal data (such as static IP address). These third parties typically use cookies or tracking technologies to collect this information on websites and applications owned by us or third parties. PAC endeavors to adhere to the transparency and choice principles set forth in the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (DAA) Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising. To learn more about interest-based/behavioral advertising or to opt-out of this service, which is managed by the third parties, visit the Network Advertising Initiative Website or the Digital Advertising Alliance Website.

PAC utilizes services and technology that may result in your data being used for analytics, customer service and other operational purposes. We do not allow your personal data to be used for cross-brand marketing by any third party or in any other way that violates our Privacy Policy.

We may share your information with our third party service providers that work on our behalf, including by providing or fulfilling the products and services you request, authorizing and processing your payments, performing fraud protection and credit risk reduction, product customization, marketing and promotional material distribution, website and application evaluation, data analysis, website improvements, and, where applicable, data cleansing, marketing, promotions and other services performed on our behalf or on behalf of our parent or affiliates.

In addition, we may share or transfer information about you to unrelated third parties:

  • when you engage in activities that are sponsored by third parties (e.g. cobranded offerings)
  • as required by law or a legal process, including investigating a potential crime
  • when we believe it is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of PAC.

We may also share your data in the event of an actual or potential sale, merger, acquisition or transfer of our business or assets.

We may use or share information that does not reasonably identify you with any third party and for any purpose.

5. WHAT CHOICES CAN YOU MAKE ABOUT YOUR DATA

If you no longer wish to receive promotional emails or direct mail from PAC, you can contact Customer Service at sales@platinumathleticcollections.com. A request to opt-out may take three to five business days to take effect. If you have a member account with us, you may still receive communications related to your account, loyalty points or special officers (such as birthday discounts). An opt-out request will also not stop transactional emails related to your purchases.

At PAC, we do not share your personal data directly with third parties for their own marketing purposes in exchange for monetary consideration. However, as mentioned in this policy, we do engage in Interest-Based Advertising, where we allow third parties to place cookies, pixels, and trackers on our site to provide you with personalized ads.

6. HOW DO WE PROTECT YOUR DATA

In addition to contractual safeguards, we use commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and physical security measures to protect the information that we collect or receive. Despite these measures, please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. If you believe that you were the victim of a financial scam related to the use of PAC website and associated technology, fraudulent dispute charges need to be filed with your financial institution.

PAC is concerned about the safety of children when they use the Internet. Our websites and applications are not directed to children under the age of 13. If we become aware that a user is under the age of 13 and has registered without prior verifiable parental consent, we will remove their information from our files. If a parent or guardian discovers that a child under the age of 13 has provided us with information, we ask that they contact us at sales@platinumathleticcollections.com.

7. SPECIAL NOTICE FOR CANADIAN AND INTERNATIONAL USERS

We may store or process your personal information on servers in jurisdictions outside of Canada or your country of residence.
