Beethoven collects individually identifiable information, and other information that can be associated with an identifier. This information is collected to provide information and services to website users, and to allow Beethoven to (i) analyze and monitor consumer and customer activity; (ii) promote and support Wolverine products; and (iii) develop a knowledge base regarding its Web site users and customers.

As is commonly done on retail websites, Beethoven may use "cookies" or similar technology to keep track of its customers and the goods or services they are ordering. For example, we use cookies to keep track of items that you might wish to store in your Shopping Cart between visits. If you do not wish to accept cookies, the "help" selection on your browser's toolbar will likely tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting cookies, how to have the browser alert you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. If you disable cookies, however, you will not be able to take advantage of all of the features on this Web site; therefore we recommend that you leave them turned on |

We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our behalf. These companies may employ cookies and action tags (also known as single pixel gifs or web beacons) to measure advertising effectiveness. Any informa-tion that these third parties collect via cookies and action tags is completely anonymous. |

| 4. |
When we ask for your personal information, it is so that we can provide a prod-uct or service to you and to communicate with you about those products and services. This may require us to share information with our business partners.

When we ask for your personal information, we also give you an option to opt out of additional uses of your personal information for marketing purposes. For example, we may from time to time send you an e-mail message informing you of on-line sales that you may be interested in hearing about. If you do not wish to receive such messages, please click on the appropriate box when providing your personal information. We do not sell or share identifiable information to any third party outside Wolverine World Wide, Inc. You will only receive communica-tion from the branded Web site you purchased or requested information from. |
| |
|
| 6. |
Beethoven may be required to disclose personal information without prior notice in response to law enforcement activity or other governmental request, to enforce its contract or property rights, or when otherwise required by law. Infor-mation we collect may also be transferred in connection with any sale or merger of the company or any division or business line of the company to which the in-formation relates. |

To improve the products and services offered, Beethoven may share data collected with business partners such as designers, manufacturers and distribu-tors and may furnish data to parties that provide support services for Hush Pup-pies websites.
