Affiliated businesses:

We work closely with our affiliated businesses, such as tradeshows, we occasionally share our customers with fashion, textile, and design industry trade shows, where we will be exhibiting at, so our customers can visit the show, gain up-to-date industry information, and visit us personally.
Agents: We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments, and providing customer service.

In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that Fashiondex, Inc., or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will be one of the transferred assets.
