Frequently Asked Questions

[Pages:82]Frequently Asked Questions

What types of companies are on the "Don't Test" list?

The list includes companies that make cosmetics, personal-care products, household-cleaning products, and other common household products. In the U.S., no law requires that these types of products be tested on animals, and companies can choose not to sell their products in countries such as China, where tests on animals are required for cosmetics and other products. Companies on this list should be supported for their commitment to manufacturing products without harming any animals. Companies that aren

t on this list should be boycotted until they implement a policy that prohibits animal testing.

All companies that are included on PETA

s cruelty-free list have signed PETA

s statement of assurance verifying that they and their ingredient suppliers do not 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.

The list does not 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 quarrel in those instances is less with the individual companies and more with the regulatory agencies that require animal testing. Nonetheless, it is important to let companies know that it is their responsibility to convince the regulatory agencies that there are better ways to determine product safety.

How does a company get on the list?

In order to be listed as cruelty-free by PETAk?s Beauty Without Bunnies Program, all companies and brands must submit a legally-binding Statement of Assurance signed by their CEO verifying that they and their ingredient suppliers do not 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. Companies applying to the program must also submit detailed paperwork that describes how the companies test their products, where they are sold, what kinds of products they offer, and what kinds of ingredients they use. We also require all companies to have agreements in place with their suppliers that no animal testing is done at any stage on any of the ingredients or raw materials they supply to the company for its products.

How does a company license PETA's cruelty-free bunny logo?

Once certified as cruelty-free, companies also have the opportunity to share their cruelty-free commitment with consumers by licensing our cruelty-free bunny logo for use on product labels and promotional materials. This step helps consumers identify cruelty-free products at a glance while shopping. For a one-time licensing fee of $100, our logo may be used on companies' products, literature, in-store displays, and websites. To meet individual design needs, the logo may be used in any color combination or in black and white. For companies that sell an entirely vegan product line, a version that reads, "Cruelty-Free and Vegan," is also available.

For more information or to request the necessary paperwork, please e-mail BeautyWithoutBunnies@.

How do I know that these companies really don't test on animals?

PETA has a team of scientists, regulatory specialists, and lawyers working together to end the use of tests on animals worldwide. PETA works directly with companiesk? CEOs, management teams, research and development specialists, and global sustainability officers to ensure that all of the information we receive is 100% accurate and complete, from the top down.

We require that the Statement of Assurances be signed by the CEO of the company, and the statement is a legally-binding document, not just a mere promise that they wonk?t test on animals or a form response given by a customer service representative. Companies are putting their integrity on the line when they post and share their policies and respond to consumer inquires. A company that has publicly announced an end to tests on animals and states in writing that it doesn

t test on animals would face a public relations disaster and potential lawsuits if it was caught lying.

What about a product whose label says, "No Animal Testing," but whose manufacturing company is not on PETA's "Don't Test" list?

Labels can be deceptive, so be careful. No specific laws exist regarding cruelty-free labeling of products, and companies may not have the same high standards as PETA when labeling their products. PETA's requirements include ingredients, ingredient suppliers, formulations, and finished products. A company that claims not to test on animals but that doesn't appear on PETA's list may have eliminated tests on animals for finished products but not for ingredients. If you communicate with a company that claims to be cruelty-free but is not on our list, please ask for a statement in writing and send a copy of the statement to PETA. We will contact the company to see whether it meets our cruelty-free criteria. Meanwhile, PETA recommends purchasing only products made by companies on our "Don't Test" list.

What if a company isn't on either of PETA's lists?

Some companies have refused to respond to specific questions about their testing practices. It appears likely that these companies do test on animals at some stage of product development, and their refusal to clarify their testing policies appears to be an attempt to mislead consumers.

Other companies may be new. If you find a company not included on our lists, please share the company's contact information with PETA so that we can contact the company directly.

Why do some companies' product labels say, "No Animal Ingredients," when, in fact, the products contain beeswax, lanolin, whey, etc.?

Some companies are not educated about or sensitive to the suffering of animals in the production of certain products that do not involve the actual slaughter of animals. PETA attempts to educate these companies, but some have persisted in inaccurately labeling their products as free of animal ingredients, even though honey, lanolin, etc., are animal products. Please read the entire label before believing such a statement. We also encourage you to voice a complaint to these companies. For our list of animal ingredients and their alternatives, please visit living/vegetarian-living/animal-ingredient-guide.aspx.

How often are PETA's product lists updated?

PETA's online "Do Test" and "Don't Test" lists are updated frequently to reflect additions (e.g., if we are informed of a new company's policy prohibiting animal testing), deletions (e.g., if a company that doesn't test on animals is purchased by a company that tests on animals or if a company goes out of business), changes in contact information, etc.

PETA's printed version of the Cruelty-Free Shopping Guide is updated approximately twice a year and is based on the most current information available at the time of printing. The animal testing policies of companies can change after any given edition is printed.

PETA reserves the right to choose which companies will be included, based on companies' policies. Inclusion on any list is not an endorsement by PETA of a company or any of its products. Please contact PETA if you have any questions about the status of companies that are listed or if you know the address of a company that is not listed.

**** The following companies manufacture products that are not tested on animals. Those marked with an asterisk (*) manufacture strictly vegan products made without animal ingredients, such as milk and egg byproducts, slaughterhouse byproducts, lanolin from sheep, honey, or beeswax. (For a list of animal ingredients and their alternatives, please contact PETA or visit living.) Companies without an asterisk might offer some vegan products.

Some of the company names are followed by the name of their parent or subsidiary companies or by examples of products manufactured by that company.

To shop for cruelty-free products from many companies on our list, please visit the online PETA Mall at . For every purchase that you make, PETA will receive 5 to 10 percent at no additional cost to you. Thank you for your commitment to being and buying cruelty-free!

V - The company makes or sells strictly vegan products.
