Item 1. Business.

Overview

Torrid Holdings Inc. (“Torrid,” “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company”) is a direct-to-consumer brand in North America dedicated to offering a diverse assortment of stylish apparel, intimates, and accessories skillfully designed for curvy women. Specializing in sizes 10 to 30, our primary focus is on providing fashionable, comfortable, and affordable options that meet the unique needs of our customers. Our extensive collection features high quality merchandise, including tops, bottoms, denim, dresses, intimates, activewear, footwear, and accessories. Our products are exclusive to us, and each product is meticulously crafted to cater to the needs of the curvy woman, empowering her to love the way she looks and feels. Our collections are artfully curated to suit all aspects of our customers’ lives, including casual weekends, work, dressy and special occasions. Understanding the importance of affordability, we aim to keep our prices reasonable without compromising on quality. This allows us to build a meaningful connection with our customers, distinguishing us from other brands that often overlook plus- and mid-size consumers. Our brand experience and product offerings establish us as a differentiated and reliable choice for plus- and mid-size customers, which we believe sets us apart in the market. We strive to be everything our customer needs in her closet, consistently delivering products that make her feel confident and stylish.

The Torrid Approach

We have developed a proprietary approach to designing stylish, commercially relevant apparel and intimates that resonates with a diverse range of customers and appeals broadly to their sense of style. Our loyal customer base provides us with valuable insights that enable us to refine our products and experience. This creates a self-reinforcing cycle that solidifies our leadership in the plus- and mid-size apparel markets.

Our diverse assortment caters to the curvy woman’s unique needs, offering:

•A tailored fit she rarely has access to that meets all of her individual style aspirations;

•A rigorous design process where every single article of clothing is fitted on a real woman, and not simply “grading up” non-plus-size apparel;

•A proprietary sizing process constantly updated through continuous customer feedback and data, until we fit to perfection; and

•An expanded brand that provides a fusion of trendy and on-point style with exceptional tailoring that satisfies the unique needs of the curvy woman.

Product

Product Offering

We offer a comprehensive product line that inspires our customers with new and exciting options for her entire closet. Our assortment spans tops, bottoms, denim, dresses, intimates, activewear, footwear and accessories that we believe embody the attitude and style that enable our customers to comfortably and confidently dress like their non-plus-size friends. Combined with an unparalleled fit, we believe our products make us a destination for our customers to shop for every occasion, from casual to dressy, and everything in between.

While we aim to bring her current styles and trends, we also bring her offerings built on a foundation of timeless year-round styles and colors (“Basics”) that are constantly replenished. Our core offerings include products that are on-trend interpretations of our Basics merchandise (“Core”) that we update with new fabrics, prints, embellishments or features. For example, the Harper Blouse represents a Basics item with Core iterations that feature different lengths and sleeve designs. Our trend-driven items incorporate fresh styles available in the broader market to excite and engage our customer but are bought narrowly and reordered as demand dictates to minimize inventory risk.

Our focus on bottoms and intimates, both attractive growth categories where technical expertise is critical, drives customer loyalty and serves as an entry point to the Torrid brand. Our intimates line is designed to inspire confidence and allows our customer to move in effortless comfort throughout her day while feeling confident and sexy. We offer a full range of bra frames, sizes and solutions, continually testing new innovations. Over the course of approximately two decades, Torrid has developed the requisite design and engineering expertise for the highly technical bra category through a rigorous in-house research and development process.

Product Design and Development

We are dedicated to creating youthful, sexy and commercially relevant products that cater specifically to the woman in our size range. Our in-house design, development and merchandising teams work tirelessly to bring our vision to life under our portfolio of brands, including Torrid®, Torrid Curve®, CURV®, and Lovesick®. Our products are exclusive to us and provide a consistent quality and fit that we believe she cannot find elsewhere. Our product development is led by a team of highly skilled designers, artists and product engineers. Our core competency is our differentiated, market-leading fit that we achieve through the following strategies:

•Laser focus on fit across our entire organization;

•Differentiated technical fit created through building and continuously refining a database of fit specifications derived from testing, measuring and cataloging garments on our fit models;

•Proprietary fabrics specifically engineered to enhance the fit;

•Fit all of our products on fit models and our staff, not mannequins; and

•We often test new fabrics, new silhouettes and new product lines on our staff and community of loyal customers before launch.

Additionally, we employ a data-driven approach to design and product development, proactively and quickly incorporating sales and operational performance information alongside customer feedback from thousands of product reviews, and our ongoing dialogue with customers through social media and customer surveys.

Merchandise Planning

Our strategy is built around a consistent and stable base of Core products that provide our customer with year-round style. At the same time, we introduce new lines of merchandise approximately 16 times per year, thus providing a consistent flow of fresh merchandise to keep our customer engaged, encourage repeat business and attract new customers.

We regularly use the depth and breadth of our data to assess sales, market trends and new product development to inform purchasing decisions. As a result, we have the flexibility to react quickly to product performance, make in-season inventory purchasing adjustments where possible and to respond to the latest sales trends by ordering or re-ordering as appropriate. Further, we utilize a read-and-react testing approach, with small purchase quantities, to introduce our new product offering, minimizing fashion risk. This strategy also allows us to mitigate inventory risk, particularly for new products or styles, while simultaneously providing our customers access to current fashion.

Customers

Our typical customer is an employed, youthful woman between the ages of approximately 30 and 44 years old with above-average annual household income, and wears sizes 10 to 30 (average of size 18). Approximately half of our customers are under 40 years old and the ethnic composition of our customer base largely parallels that of the U.S. population. She leads a busy life, is short on time and wants a curated presentation of quality apparel, intimates and accessories that are on trend and fit her well.

Torrid Loyalty and Torrid Credit Card Programs

We drive customer loyalty and engagement through our three-tier loyalty program, Torrid Rewards. Members earn one point for every dollar spent and receive a reward for every 250 points collected. The program is tiered by annual customer spend and offers incremental perks with each tier. Torrid Insider members are those who spend up to $499 annually, while members of Torrid Loyalist spend $500+ annually and Torrid VIP spend $1,000+ annually. We inspire loyalty by continuously engaging with our loyalty members through birthday gifts, social media, dedicated customer service lines and exclusive events. Members of the top two tiers of our loyalty program, Torrid VIP and Loyalist, are our most loyal customers who purchase from us more often and spend significantly more than the average customer, accounting for an outsized share of net sales.

Additionally, we provide our customers with access to our Torrid Credit Card Program through which customers receive points, discounts and other perks. Torrid Credit Card holders are among our most loyal and valuable customers. Our credit card program encourages customer loyalty, serves as a valuable source for data and allows us to further invest in marketing efforts while limiting exposure to incremental credit risk as our bank partner substantially manages all administrative processes, including underwriting, and bears a portion of the credit balance risk.

Torrid Rewards and our Torrid Credit Card program provide us with a strong ability to attribute sales and behavioral data to individual customers, which informs our decision-making process.

Unified Commerce Platform

Through our unified commerce platform, which includes our e-Commerce and retail stores, we deliver a seamless brand experience to our customers wherever and whenever she chooses to shop. We are agnostic to the channel where our customers choose to shop, as we are highly profitable across both e-Commerce and store channels. We deliver a consistent brand message by coordinating our strategies across channels, which we believe influences our customers’ buying decisions. This customer-centric strategy enhances customer acquisition, retention and customer lifetime value. Our e-Commerce and store channels complement and drive traffic to one another, creating more loyal omni-channel customers.

e-Commerce

Our e-Commerce channel is central to our unified commerce platform. Our online platform provides customers with a highly engaging shopping experience featuring access to our full product assortment, an aesthetically rich and easily navigable website, and seamless ordering and fulfillment. Additionally, we successfully use our e-Commerce platform to expand our selection of styles, colors and merchandise meaningfully beyond what is available in our stores, making the online shopping experience highly engaging and additive to our in-store experience. Our website and mobile app feature updates on new collections, guidance on how to wear and put together outfits and a selection of web-only exclusives, all of which facilitate customer engagement and interaction.

We aim to be wherever she is and make the transaction process as convenient as possible. As a result, a majority of our e-Commerce orders and a material portion of all orders are placed directly from her phone. The functionality and features of our mobile app enable us to deliver enhanced personalization such as allowing her to find her recommended size while suggesting complementary items to expedite purchase decisions and increase frequency and order size.

Stores

Even as we optimize our store footprint, we continue to believe that our stores are highly valuable strategic assets that play an important role in our customer acquisition strategy as many of our new customer relationships begin in our stores. We believe our remaining stores are located in the most impactful locations and enhance brand awareness, drive traffic to our e-Commerce platform and encourage customers to shop across multiple channels of our unified commerce platform. We provide a sophisticated presentation of products that has an emphasis on outfits, which presents creative styling ideas to our customer and encourages incremental spend. Our stores include large, comfortable fitting rooms with features, such as cooling fans, that are specifically suited for our customers’ needs. Additionally, our stores offer customers the opportunity to connect with a like-minded community, through exclusive in-store events and interactions with our store associates, who act as brand ambassadors and are often customers themselves.

As of January 31, 2026, we operated 483 stores in the U.S., Puerto Rico and Canada. Our stores are located primarily in premium malls, shopping plazas, lifestyle centers and outlet locations. Our stores are designed to deliver an immersive fit discovery experience and serve as desirable customer destinations. Our average store size is approximately 3,200 square feet.

People and Culture

Our management is committed to attracting, developing and retaining talent, and supporting a company culture of belonging where our associates and customers feel valued. Our work environment is open and collaborative with an organizational structure that facilitates efficient decision making. Many of our employees are also customers who believe in our mission to empower curvy women to love the way they look and feel. We strive to promote a welcoming and inclusive culture throughout our Company.

Torrid Holdings Inc. | FY 2025 Form 10-K | 3

Table of Contents

The goal of creating a welcoming and supportive environment spans our full organization from our headquarters and distribution center to our stores. We remain committed to a work environment rooted in mutual respect and inclusion and will continue to encourage different ideas and points of view. We believe that diverse perspectives and experiences are important to help inform management of risks, business strategies and opportunities. We believe that our in-store brand ambassadors are critical to our success and often represent the face of our organization to our customers. We empower our managers and in-store brand ambassadors to deliver a superior shopping experience. We provide thorough product- and fit-oriented training that aims to strengthen our brand experience in the store. We also provide our in-store brand ambassadors with sales and key performance data that help them optimize their store’s performance and foster a culture of accountability. Communications with our store associates is a critical channel for valuable product and customer feedback. We believe we have established effective two-way lines of communication throughout our organization, including using technologies to communicate with stores in real time and routinely synthesize store insights and customer feedback from the field to influence decision making.

As of January 31, 2026, we employed approximately 1,530 full-time and 4,155 part-time employees. Of these employees, approximately 590 are assigned to our headquarters in City of Industry, California and approximately 5,095 are employed in our stores and distribution center. Our number of employees, particularly part-time employees, fluctuates depending upon seasonal needs. Our employees are not represented by a labor union and are not party to a collective bargaining agreement.

Our talent strategy is to attract, engage and retain the best and most qualified talent. We offer competitive compensation packages that are based on market-specific data for comparable roles and geographic locations. We believe in rewarding high performance and seek to design plans and programs to support this culture. To further support the advancement of our employees, we invest in a wide range of training and development opportunities at all levels across the organization, including through both online and instructor-led internal programs, as well as third-party programs. We regularly collect feedback from our employees to better understand and improve our learning and development offerings to meet their needs. To ensure we provide a rich and rewarding experience for our employees, we monitor culture and engagement to build on the competencies that are important for our future success. We routinely hold employee engagement events and virtual and on-demand learning sessions for our associates’ development.

Employee safety remains a priority. We develop and administer company-wide policies to ensure the safety of each team member and compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards and local requirements.

An important part of our culture is our focus on giving back to the community, which we do primarily through our Torrid Foundation that we established in 2017. The mission of the Torrid Foundation is to support various nonprofit organizations dedicated to helping women and changing lives for our customers and their communities. The funds utilized in these efforts are raised from customer donations, including whole-dollar sale round-ups and proceeds from a portion of total sales during specific campaign periods.

Data Analytics

We have a significant volume of customer and transaction data, collected from a variety of sources, including e-Commerce and in-store interactions, our loyalty program, social media and customer surveys. For example, we have the ability to track page views, search history, clicks, linger time and purchase route for visitors to our e-Commerce platform. We use our data to drive decision making across the organization. This customer data is largely based on information provided by customers who have opted-in to be part of our loyalty program. Our extensive database contains valuable customer information that helps us better market to our customers.

We have significant visibility into our customers’ transaction behavior, including purchases made across our channels. We use our customer database to acquire, develop and retain customers. We can identify customers who purchase products regardless of whether they shop on our e-Commerce platform or in-store. We leverage this customer database to drive data analysis and insights that we use in managing our business. For example, to grow the penetration of intimates sales, we are able to offer a promotion targeted at customers who have bought our apparel but not our intimates, which will encourage shopping across categories.

Marketing and Advertising

We promote a message of inclusivity that empowers all women to love the way they look and feel. Our brand inspires women to feel confident, sexy and youthful like they never have before. We believe our brand messaging built around fashion and fit resonates with the attitudes of younger generations who are frustrated with being ignored by other brands. Our marketing collateral intentionally represents the diversity of our customer base, including curvy women of all sizes from 10 to 30, and communicates the confidence and sexiness our product is intended to deliver.

We use a variety of marketing and advertising mediums to increase brand awareness, acquire new customers, and drive repeat purchases across our channels. These programs include our online marketing, such as paid search and social media, product listing ads and retargeting, combined with direct mail, store marketing and public relations initiatives. Further, we have a multiple brand strategy, including niche concepts like Festi, Nightfall and Retro Chic. This enables us to reach new customers and increase our brand awareness. We strengthen the connection with our most engaged customers through special events, like Casting Call, which feature plus- and mid-size models, celebrities, bloggers and other influencers. We use our customer database to strategically optimize the value of our marketing investments across our customer base and channels. This enables us to efficiently acquire new customers, effectively market to repeat customers and reactivate lapsed customers.

Our investments in digital and physical marketing drive customer acquisition and engagement across all of our channels. We coordinate the introduction of our collections across our e-Commerce platform and stores, allowing a customer to experience a consistent brand message wherever and whenever she chooses to shop. We have a large and growing following on our social media channels, including Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, YouTube and TikTok. We use these channels to communicate with our customers, disseminate our outbound marketing messages and collect feedback about their lifestyles and product preferences.

Sourcing and Production

We outsource the manufacturing of our products, which eliminates the need to own or operate manufacturing facilities. Thus, our product sourcing is not dependent on any one manufacturing facility, enabling a flexible and agile approach to sourcing. We internally design and develop the vast majority of our products, a model we describe as vertical sourcing, which gives us control to deliver consistent fit, quality and cost across our products.

We have a diversified vendor base. No single supplier accounted for more than 10% of merchandise purchased in fiscal year 2025. Substantially all of our product receipts in fiscal year 2025 were sourced internationally, primarily from Asia. We plan to continue diversifying our vendor bases by both vendor and geography. We continue to reduce our exposure to factories located within China. Though we are working towards decreasing our share of product manufactured in China, our manufacturing partners may source their own raw materials from third-party suppliers in other countries, including China. We maintain compliance guidelines for our vendors that dictate various standards including product quality, manufacturing practices, labor compliance and legal compliance. Through third parties, we periodically monitor our factories and suppliers to ensure compliance with these guidelines.

Distribution and Fulfillment

Our unified commerce business model is serviced by our distribution facility located in West Jefferson, Ohio. This 750,000 square foot facility is highly automated and capable of handling our existing and future needs. The West Jefferson facility is equipped with omni-channel capabilities that enable global direct-to-customer e-Commerce, U.S. and Canada retail store order fulfillment, including buy-online-pickup-in-store (“BOPIS”) and ship-to-store fulfillment. Our store omni-channel offerings also include ship-from-store, ship-to-store and BOPIS in the U.S. and Canada. During 2025, our distribution facility also began support of third-party marketplace fulfillment of our products.

Our distribution facility also oversees customer and store returns to drive efficient online returns processing, allowing us to seamlessly execute our unified commerce strategy. We outsource our U.S. returns operations to a third-party returns specialist. International returns are processed at the West Jefferson facility.

Torrid Holdings Inc. | FY 2025 Form 10-K | 5

Table of Contents

Our supply chain team manages the inbound transportation, receipt, quality assurance, regulatory compliance, storage, sorting, picking, packing and distribution of merchandise for our e-Commerce platform and store channels. Stores are typically replenished at least once per week from this facility, which provides our stores with a steady flow of both new inventory and basics replenishment that helps maintain product freshness and in-stock availability. Distribution for e-Commerce customers and retail stores is performed by third-party parcel delivery services that optimize cost and service.

Information Systems

We utilize a full range of third-party management information systems to support our store, e-Commerce, merchandising, customer data, financial and real estate business teams. We utilize these systems to provide us with various functions, including customer relationship management, point-of-sales, inventory management, merchandising support systems, financial reporting, e-Commerce solutions and other systems.

Seasonality

While the apparel industry is generally seasonal in nature, we have not historically experienced significant seasonal fluctuations in our sales. In fiscal year 2025, no single quarter contributed more than 27% of Torrid net sales. We believe this is partly attributable to our broad merchandise offering that encourages purchasing across seasons. We believe our reduced seasonality is also attributable to the behavior of our customer, who is generally purchasing products for herself, not as gifts.

Competition

We face competition across a variety of players within the broader apparel industry. Our competitors range from smaller, growing e-Commerce brands to considerably larger players with substantially greater financial, marketing and other resources. Further, we may face new competitors and increased competition from existing competitors as we expand into new markets and increase our presence in existing markets.

Our competition in the women’s plus- and mid-size apparel industry includes:

•Plus- and Mid-Size Focused Specialty Retailers. We compete with other specialty retailers that, like Torrid, focus on plus- and mid-size customers. We offer a fashion-first focus rooted in a great fit and a broad and stylish product assortment that is differentiated by our vertical sourcing capabilities. We target a younger, more fashion-minded consumer with a wide assortment that has broad appeal. We further differentiate ourselves based on the strength of our brand, industry-leading unified commerce business model and e-Commerce penetration, strong data capabilities, loyal customer base, customer-focused product assortment and highly experienced leadership team.

•Plus- and Mid-Size Focused Direct to Consumer Brands. We compete with other plus- and mid-size focused direct to consumer brands. We operate on a large scale, which allows us to offer a wide product assortment, high product quality and convenience to provide a better experience and acquire customers more efficiently.

•Local, National and International Retail Chains. We compete indirectly with department stores, specialty apparel players and mass merchandise retailers who also carry products in our size range and offer similar categories of merchandise to our customer segment. By maintaining a maniacal focus on fashion and fit, our proprietary product offering delivers a superior fit for the curvy woman that makes her love the way she looks and feels. Our sole focus on designing for our specific customer needs differentiate her experience when she shops with us.

Our distinct combination of first at fashion and fit design, service, product quality and value allows us to compete effectively within the women’s plus- and mid-size apparel market.

Intellectual Property

Our trademarks are important to our marketing efforts. We own or have the rights to use certain trademarks, service marks and trade names that are registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or other foreign trademark registration offices or exist under common law in the United States and other jurisdictions. Trademarks that are important in identifying and distinguishing our products and services include, but are not limited to, Torrid®, Torrid Curve®, CURV® and Lovesick®. Our rights to some of these trademarks may be limited to select markets. We also own domain names, including our website, www.torrid.com. Further, we have patents issued, as well as applications pending for our innovative technology featured in our most popular line of bras, the Reduced-Coverage Back Smoothing Brassiere, as well as the Wire-free Push-Up Brassiere with Hinge for Improved Support and Flexibility, and for our Power Mesh Panels for Tummy-Flattening Pants and Tummy-Covering Garments.

Regulation and Legislation

We are required to comply with numerous laws and regulations at the state, federal and international levels. For instance, we are subject to labor and employment, tax, environmental, privacy and anti-bribery laws. We are also subject to regulations, trade laws and customs, truth-in-advertising, consumer protection and zoning and occupancy laws and ordinances that regulate retailers generally and/or govern the importation, promotion and sale of merchandise and the operation of stores and warehouse facilities. We monitor changes in these laws and believe that we are in material compliance with applicable laws.

A substantial portion of our products are manufactured outside the United States. These products are imported and are subject to U.S. customs laws, which impose tariffs as well as import quota restrictions for textiles and apparel. Some of our imported products are eligible for duty-advantaged programs.

The current U.S. trade environment has introduced significant uncertainty for Torrid and other apparel importers. Beginning in early 2025, the U.S. government announced a series of broad import tariff increases, including new and expanded duties on goods imported from major sourcing countries that collectively supply a significant portion of U.S. apparel imports. The tariff environment has remained highly fluid, with executive orders, temporary pauses, partial reversals, and ongoing negotiations between the U.S. and its trading partners creating continuing uncertainty. On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling striking down certain tariffs previously imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) and following the Supreme Court’s decision, the U.S. presidential administration announced its intention to invoke other laws to collect tariffs and announced new tariffs on imports from all countries, in addition to any existing non-IEEPA tariffs. As a significant portion of our sourcing is from countries directly affected by the new and increased tariff rates, these developments have increased our cost of goods sold and impacted our gross margins. We are actively monitoring the tariff environment and taking steps to mitigate the impact of higher duties on our business. These steps include, but are not limited to, diversifying our sourcing network across additional countries and manufacturing partners, engaging with our vendor base to negotiate cost-sharing arrangements, evaluating potential adjustments to our product mix and pricing strategy, and accelerating review of duty-advantaged trade programs. There can be no assurance that these mitigation efforts will fully offset the impact of increased tariffs on our product costs, margins, or results of operations. While importation of goods from foreign countries from which we buy our products may be subject to embargo by U.S. customs authorities if shipments exceed quota limits, we closely monitor import quotas and believe we have the sourcing network to efficiently shift production to factories located in countries with available quotas. The existence of import quotas has, therefore, not had a material adverse effect on our business. For more information, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Government Regulation and Litigation—Changes in laws, including employment laws and laws related to our merchandise, could make conducting our business more expensive or otherwise change the way we do business” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Manufacturing, Processing and Supply of Our Products—The interruption of the flow of merchandise from international manufacturers could disrupt our supply chain, including as a result of the imposition of additional duties, tariffs, and other charges on imports and exports.”

Data Privacy and Security

We collect, process, store and use confidential, proprietary and personal information, including information about our customers, our employees and other third parties. Consequently, our business is subject to increasingly complex and rigorous, and sometimes conflicting laws, regulatory standards, industry standards, external and internal privacy and security policies, contracts and other obligations governing data privacy and security in the U.S. and other jurisdictions where we do business, including with respect to the collection, storage, use, transmission, sharing and protection of personal information and other consumer data.

For example, the European Union (“EU”) and United Kingdom (“UK”), have adopted strict data privacy and security regulations. The General Data Protection Regulation (EU 2016/679) (“EU GDPR”), effective May 2018, and the EU GDPR as it forms part of the laws of England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland by virtue of section 3 of the European Union Withdrawal Act 2018 (“UK GDPR” and together with the EU GDPR, the “GDPR”), have compliance obligations applicable to businesses without an establishment in the EU, the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or the UK, but that either (i) offer their goods or services to individuals located in the EU, EEA or UK, or (ii) monitor the behavior of individuals located in the EU, EEA or UK. As a result, it is possible the UK GDPR and/or EU GDPR may apply to us.

In addition, various federal and state legislative and regulatory bodies, or self-regulatory organizations, may expand current laws or regulations, enact new laws or regulations or issue revised rules or guidance regarding privacy, data protection, consumer protection, and advertising. For example, on January 1, 2023, the California Privacy Rights Act (the “CPRA”) amendments to the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”) came into force. Among other operational requirements for covered companies, the CCPA mandates that covered companies provide new disclosures to California consumers and afford such consumers data privacy rights that include, among other things, the right to request a copy from a covered company of the personal information collected about them, the right to request correction or deletion of such personal information, and the right to request to opt-out of certain sales, or disclosures for the purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising, of such personal information. The California Attorney General and a standalone California data privacy agency, the California Privacy Protection Agency, can enforce the CCPA, including seeking an injunction and civil penalties for violations. The CCPA also provides a private right of action for certain data breaches that is expected to increase data breach litigation. We continue to monitor and update our privacy policy and procedures as additional states implement new data privacy and security laws. This legislation may add additional complexity, variation in requirements, restrictions and potential legal risk, require additional investment in resources to compliance programs, and could impact strategies and availability of previously useful data and could result in increased compliance costs and/or changes in business practices and policies. Additionally, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and many state attorneys general are interpreting existing federal and state consumer protection laws to impose expanded standards for the online collection, use, dissemination and security of data.

We may publish privacy policies, marketing materials, and other statements, such as compliance with certain certifications or self-regulatory principles, regarding data privacy and security. If these policies, materials or statements are found to be deficient, lacking in transparency, deceptive, unfair or misrepresentative of our practices, we may be subject to investigation, enforcement actions by regulators or other adverse consequences. For example, our compliance with our privacy policies and our general consumer data privacy and security practices may be subject to review by the FTC, which may bring enforcement actions to challenge allegedly unfair and deceptive trade practices, including the violation of privacy policies and representations or material omissions therein.

Compliance with existing, proposed and recently enacted laws and regulations can be costly and time consuming, and any failure to comply with these regulatory standards could subject us to legal and reputational risks. Misuse of or failure to secure personal information could also result in violation of data privacy laws and regulations, proceedings against us by governmental entities or others, imposition of fines by governmental authorities and damage to our reputation and credibility and could have a negative impact on revenues and profits. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Government Regulation and Litigation—Failure to comply with federal and state laws and regulations and industry standards relating to privacy, data protection, advertising and consumer protection, or the expansion of current or the enactment of new laws, regulations or industry standards relating to privacy, data protection, advertising and consumer protection, could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.”
