All Content and Code are included within the meaning of the term "Site" and the Site is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. We require users to respect all laws and regulations that apply to our Site, just as we respect the rights of others. We will act expeditiously to remove content on the Site that we are notified infringes the copyright of others and, without limiting our remedies or actions, we have the right to block and disable use of our Site by anyone who repeatedly infringes the rights of others or violates this Agreement. We take protection of rights, our own and others, very seriously and we employ multiple measures to prevent infringement on our Site and to attempt to promptly end any infringement when it comes to our attention.

THIRD-PARTY CONTENT AND WEBSITES
This Site may contain references, URLs, links and other material related to or associated with websites, content, information and/or material of third parties, and third-party sites, such as Facebook, may host and display our branded social media fan pages. You should understand that we do not control, are not responsible for, do not monitor or endorse, and, simply put, have no obligation or responsibility, and do not incur or accept any liability for them, including, without limitation any information submitted by you or any other individual to one of our social media fan pages. These third parties, not us, are solely responsible for their websites, content, information and materials and their terms and conditions, including any privacy policies or statements, and all of their goods and services even if any one or more of our logos or sponsorship identification may be used by them, whether as part of a co-branding or promotional arrangement or otherwise.

PRICING, AVAILABILITY, ORDERING AND SHIPPING
Prices on our Site are in U.S. dollars, for U.S. purchasers only. We cannot ship to addresses outside the U.S. possessions and territories and APO and FPO (Air/Army Post Office or Fleet Post Office) boxes, and purchases are subject to applicable taxes to be paid by the purchaser, and prices do not include shipping and handling. Title (i.e., ownership) and risk of loss for all goods ordered, pass to you when we deliver the goods to the carrier for shipment.

You acknowledge and agree there may be unintentional inaccuracies, omissions or errors regarding price, offers, descriptions, promotions, availability or other matters and except as provided by law, we will not be held liable for these, but we will promptly correct them when brought to our attention. Goods may be out-of-stock or discontinued and prices are subject to change and, of course, we must reserve the right to limit the quantity of items purchased, to change and update information, as well as simply cancel orders you may have submitted (even if you received an automated confirmation), if information on the Site is found to be inaccurate. The Hanesbrands' products described in this Site may not be available in your region. We do not claim that the information in the Site is appropriate to your jurisdiction or that the products described in our Site will be available for purchase in all jurisdictions.

Product information is for information purposes only and although we make every effort to display products (including their colors) as accurately as possible, sometimes your computer and monitor settings can affect what you see when you look at the Site. Consequently, we cannot guarantee you will accurately be able to see the actual colors and specific features in every case.

SUBMISSION OF IDEAS
Don't send us any of your original ideas (each, an "Idea"). If you do, you are agreeing that your submission is entirely voluntary, non-confidential, gratuitous, and non-committal. We have no obligation to treat any Idea as confidential or proprietary and we have the right to use or disregard, in whole or in part, any Ideas. We will not be liable for the use of any Ideas nor will we incur or accept any liability, even if we adopt, use or implement anything that is similar or even identical to any Idea you submit.
