  • Frequently Asked Questions
    Frequently Asked Questions What Types of Companies Are on the "Don't Test" List? This list includes companies that make cosmetics, personal-care products, household-cleaning products, and other common household products. All companies that are included on PETA's "don't test" list have signed our statement of assurance verifying that they and their ingredient suppliers don't conduct, commission, pay for, or allow any tests on animals for ingredients, formulations, or finished products anywhere in the world and will not do so in the future. We encourage consumers to support the companies on this list, since we know that they're committed to making products without harming animals. Companies on the "Do Test" list should be shunned until they implement a policy that prohibits animal testing. The "do test" list doesn't include companies that manufacture only products that are required by law to be tested on animals (e.g., pharmaceuticals and garden chemicals). Although PETA is opposed to all animal testing, our focus in those instances is less on the individual companies and more on the regulatory agencies that require animal testing. How Does a Company Get on PETA's Global Animal Test–Free List? In order to be listed as animal test–free by PETA's Beauty Without Bunnies program, a company or brand must submit a legally binding statement of assurance signed by its CEO verifying that it and its ingredient suppliers don't conduct, commission, pay for, or allow any tests on animals for ingredients, formulations, or finished products anywhere in the world and won't do so in the future.

  • Personalization Guidelines
    Personalization Guidelines Purpose Our personalization services are a very important part of the Thirty-One experience. We believe our personalization services set our products and our brand apart. Although we never want to disappoint you or our Customers, there are legal and policy limits to the personalization requests that we will fulfill. These Personalization Guidelines are intended to assist you in: • Helping our Customers understand what personalization requests we cannot fulfill; • Avoiding damage to the Thirty-One brand; • Avoiding the infringement of the trademarks of others; and • Reducing potential legal liability for both Thirty-One and our Customers. Our hope is that these Guidelines will help you to advise Customers of problematic personalization requests when Customers place their orders. Why Can’t Thirty-One Fulfill All Personalization Requests? Legal Reasons There are legal reasons why we cannot fulfill certain personalization requests. Sometimes companies (like Avon or Microsoft), sports teams (like the Cleveland Browns or the Ohio State Buckeyes), and famous people (like Jennifer Lopez) make a filing with the government to register their name, the name of a product (like Apple’s iPad) or a tag line (like Nike’s “Just Do It”). If we fulfill a request to personalize a Thirty-One product with a name or phrase that has been “trademarked,” then there is a risk we could face a legal claim for “trademark infringement.” Trademark infringement can occur when someone uses a name or phrase that causes confusion with someone else’s trademark. Here is an example. The word “Coach” could refer to a sports team’s coach or it could refer to the COACH brand of handbags.
