Privacy
Policy Our Commitment to Privacy Our Privacy Policy was developed as an
extension of our commitment to combine the highest-quality products and
services with the highest level of integrity in dealing with our clients
and partners. The Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we
collect, use and safeguard the personal information you provide to us and
to assist you in making informed decisions when using our site and our
products and services. This statement will be continuously assessed
against new technologies, business practices and our customers' needs. What Information Do We Collect? When you visit our Web site you may
provide us with two types of information: personal information you
knowingly choose to disclose that is collected on an individual basis and
Web site use information collected on an aggregate basis as you and others
browse our Web site. 1. Personal Information You Choose to
Provide Credit Card Information If you choose to purchase products or
services from us or our partners, you may need to give personal
information and authorization to obtain information from various credit
services. For example, you may need to provide the following information: ·
Name ·
Mailing address
·
Email address ·
Credit card number ·
Home and business phone number
·
Other personal information
(i.e. mother’s maiden name) Email Information In addition to providing the foregoing
information to our partners, if you choose to correspond further with us
through email, we may retain the content of your email messages together
with your email address and our responses. We provide the same protections
for these electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance of
information received by mail and telephone. 2. Web Site Use Information Similar to other commercial Web sites,
our Web site utilizes a standard technology called "cookies"
(see explanation below, "What Are Cookies?") and Web server logs
to collect information about how our Web site is used. Information
gathered through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time
of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and the Web sites
visited just before and just after our Web site. This information is
collected on an aggregate basis. None of this information is associated
with you as an individual. How Do We Use the Information That You
Provide to Us? Broadly speaking, we use personal
information for purposes of administering our business activities,
providing customer service and making available other products and
services to our customers and prospective customers. Occasionally, we may
also use the information we collect to notify you about important
changes to our Web site, new services and special offers we think you will
find valuable. The lists used to send you product and service offers are
developed and managed under our traditional corporate standards designed
to safeguard the security and privacy of our customers’ personal
information. As a customer, you will be given the opportunity, at least
once annually, to notify us of your desire not to receive these offers. What Are Cookies? Cookies
are a feature of Web browser software that allows Web servers to recognize
the computer used to access a Web site. Cookies are small pieces of data
that are stored by a user’s Web browser on the user’s hard drive.
Cookies can remember what information a user accesses on one Web page to
simplify subsequent interactions with that Web site by the same user or to
use the information to streamline the user’s transactions on related Web
pages. This makes it easier for a user to move from Web page to Web page
and to complete commercial transactions over the Internet. Cookies should
make your online experience easier and more personalized. How Do We Use Information We Collect
from Cookies? We use Web site browser software tools
such as cookies and Web server logs to gather information about our Web
site users’ browsing activities, in order to constantly improve our Web
site and better serve our customers. This information assists us to design
and arrange our Web pages in the most user-friendly manner and to
continually improve our Web site to better meet the needs of our customers
and prospective customers. Cookies help us collect important
business and technical statistics. The information in the cookies lets us
trace the paths followed by users to our Web site as they move from one
page to another. Web server logs allow us to count how many people visit
our Web site and evaluate our Web site’s visitor capacity. We do not use
these technologies to capture your individual email address or any
personally identifying information about you although they do permit us to
send focused online banner advertisements or other such responses to you. Sharing Information with Affiliates From time to time you may notice offers
from outside companies advertised on our Web site. We take measures to
select product or service providers that are responsible and afford
privacy protections to their customers. However, we cannot make any
representations about the practices and policies of these companies. Sharing Information with Strategic
Partners We may enter into strategic marketing
alliances or partnerships with third parties who may be given access to
personal information including your name, address, telephone number and
email for the purpose of providing you information regarding products and
services that we think will be of interest to you. In connection with
strategic marketing alliances or partnerships, we will retain all
ownership rights to the information, and we will not share information
regarding your social security number or other personal financial data. Notice of New Services and Changes Occasionally, we may also use the
information we collect to notify you about important changes to our
Web site, new services and special offers we think you will find valuable.
As our client, you will be given the opportunity to notify us of your
desire not to receive these offers by clicking on a response box when you
receive such an offer or by sending us an email request at feedback@theatrechannel.com.
How Do We Secure Information
Transmissions? When you send confidential personal
credit card information to us on our Web site, a secure server software
which we have licensed encrypts all information you input before it is
sent to us. The information is scrambled en route and decoded once it
reaches our Web site. Other email that you may send to us may
not be secure unless we advise you that security measures will be in place
prior to your transmitting the information. For that reason, we ask that
you do not send confidential information such as Social Security or
account numbers to us through an unsecured email. How Do We Protect Your Information? Information Security. We utilize
encryption/security software to safeguard the confidentiality of personal
information we collect from unauthorized access or disclosure and
accidental loss, alteration or destruction. Evaluation of Information Protection
Practices. Periodically, our operations and business practices are
reviewed for compliance with corporate policies and procedures governing
the security, confidentiality and quality of our information. Employee Access, Training and
Expectations. Our corporate values, ethical standards, policies and
practices are committed to the protection of customer information. In
general, our business practices limit employee access to confidential
information, and limit the use and disclosure of such information to
authorized persons, processes and transactions. Do We Disclose Information to Outside
Parties? We may provide aggregate information
about our customers, sales, Web site traffic patterns and related Web site
information to our affiliates or reputable third parties, but this
information will not include personally identifying data, except as
otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy. What About Legally Compelled
Disclosure of Information? We may disclose information when legally
compelled to do so, in other words, when we, in good faith, believe that
the law requires it or for the protection of our legal rights. What About Other Web Sites Linked to
Our Web Site? We are not responsible for the practices
employed by Web sites linked to or from our Web site nor the information
or content contained therein. Often links to other Web sites are provided
solely as pointers to information on topics that may be useful to the
users of our Web site. Please remember that when you use a link
to go from our Web site to another Web site, our Privacy Policy is no
longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on any other Web site,
including Web sites which have a link on our Web site, is subject to that
Web site’s own rules and policies. Please read over those rules and
policies before proceeding. Your Consent By using our Web site you consent to our collection and use of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy. If we change our privacy policies and procedures, we will post those changes on our Web site to keep you aware of what information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we may disclose it. |
