Effective Date: 1.1.25

Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy, we provide this notice explaining our online and in-store information practices. To make this notice easy to find, we make it available throughout our site and upon request in-store.

Information We Collect

This policy applies to all information collected or submitted on the Skeffington’s Formal Wear website and in-store systems. On some pages, you may be able to schedule appointments, request information, or sign up to receive promotions. The types of personal information collected may include:

  • Name

  • Address

  • Email address

  • Phone number

  • Event details (e.g. wedding date, prom, etc.)

  • Measurements and fitting preferences

How We Use Information

Skeffington’s Formal Wear uses the data we collect to provide the products and services you’ve requested, including:

  • Scheduling and managing appointments

  • Fulfilling rental or purchase orders

  • Sending transactional updates (e.g. “Your tux is ready for pickup”)

  • Providing customer service

  • Sending promotional communications (if you’ve opted in)

We may also use non-identifying and aggregate information to improve our website and marketing strategies. For example, we might track how many users visited a certain page, but we do not share anything that could identify individuals.

You may opt out of marketing messages at any time by clicking “unsubscribe” in our emails or replying STOP to SMS messages. Message and data rates may apply for SMS.

We will never sell or share your contact information with third-party marketers. Your consent is not a condition of purchase.

Third-Party Services

We may share limited data with trusted vendors who help us deliver services, such as email and SMS providers. These vendors are required to protect your data and only use it to assist Skeffington’s operations.

We may also use anonymous data to inform advertising through search engines or social media platforms. This does not include any personally identifiable information.

Data Security

To prevent unauthorized access and ensure proper use of information, we maintain appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial safeguards to secure the information we collect.

Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 13. Our website is not intended for children, and we take precautions to avoid engaging with users under this age.
