PRIVACY POLICY
Thank you for
visiting a WMP
("we" or "us") Web site. Your privacy is important to us. To better protect
your privacy, we provide this notice explaining our online information practices
and the choices you can make about the collection and use of the personal
information you submit on Web pages where this policy is posted.
As we operate
internationally, and many of our computer systems are currently based in the
United States,
your personal data will be processed by us in the U.S. where data protection and
privacy regulations may not offer the same level of protection as in other parts
of the world, such as the European Union. If you create a user account with this
site as a visitor from outside the United States, you consent to the collection
and/or processing in the United States of your personally identifiable
information, which includes the use of cookies as described below.
At some WMP Web sites, you can order products, enter contests, vote in polls or
otherwise express an opinion, subscribe to one of our services such as our
online newsletters, or participate in one of our online forums or communities.
The types of personally identifiable information that may be collected at these
pages include: name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, fax number,
credit card information, and information about your interests in and use of
various products, programs, and services.
At some other WMP
Web sites, you can submit information about other people. For example, you might
submit a person's name and e-mail address to send an electronic greeting card
and, if you order a gift online and want it sent directly to the recipient, you
might submit the recipient's name and address. The types of personally
identifiable information that may be collected about other people at these pages
include: recipient's name, address, e-mail address, and telephone number.
At certain parts
of some of our sites, only persons who provide us with the requested personally
identifiable information will be able to order products, programs, and services,
or otherwise participate in the site's activities and offerings. We also collect
certain non-personally identifiable information when you visit many of our Web
pages such as the type of browser you are using (e.g., Firefox, Internet
Explorer), the type of operating system you are using (e.g., Windows XP or Mac
OS), and the domain name of your Internet service provider (e.g., America
Online, Earthlink).
We use the information you provide about yourself to fulfill your requests for
our products, programs, and services, to respond to your inquiries about our
offerings, and to offer you other products, programs or services that we believe
may be of interest to you.
We use this
information to communicate with you, such as to notify you when you have won one
of our contests or when we make changes to our subscriber agreements, to fulfill
a request by you for an online newsletter, or to contact you about your account
with us.
We use the
information that you provide about others to enable us to send them your gifts
or cards. From time to time, we also may use this information to offer our
products, programs, or services to them.
The information
we collect in connection with our online forums and communities is used to
provide an interactive experience. We use this information to facilitate
participation in these online forums and communities and, from time to time, to
offer you products, programs, or services.
If you choose to
submit content for publication (e.g., a "letter to our editors"), we may publish
your screen name and other information you have provided to us. We use the
non-personally identifiable information that we collect to improve the design
and content of our sites and to enable us to personalize your Internet
experience. We also may use this information in the aggregate to analyze usage
of our sites, as well as to offer you products, programs, or services.
We may disclose
personally identifiable information in response to legal process, for example,
in response to a court order or a subpoena. We also may disclose such
information in response to a law enforcement agency's request or where we
believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding
illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to
the physical safety of any person, violations of our terms of use, or as
otherwise required by law. In addition, we may transfer information about you if
we or one of our business units are acquired by, sold to, or merged with another
company.
Agents and
contractors of WMP who have access to personally identifiable information are
required to protect this information in a manner that is consistent with this
Privacy Policy by, for example, not using the information for any purpose other
than to carry out the services they are performing for WMP.
Although we take
appropriate measures to safeguard against unauthorized disclosures of
information, we cannot assure you that personally identifiable information that
we collect will never be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with this
Privacy Policy.
At some places on
our Site, we may ask your permission to disclose personally identifiable
information about you to companies whose practices are not covered by this
Privacy Policy (e.g.,other marketers, magazine publishers, retailers,
participatory databases and non-profit organizations) that want to market
products or services to you. If at some point you grant us permission to
transfer your information for these purposes and later decide that you no longer
want us to do so, simply log into your profile if you have created an account
with us at one of our sites, or send us an email at privacy@thetrapdoormovie.com
, and we will edit your preferences accordingly.
We may, on
occasion, combine information we receive online with outside records to enhance
our ability to market to you those products or services that may be of interest
to you. We provide you with an opportunity to express your preferences with
respect to receiving details about other products and services from
WMP and
about products and services from selected third parties when you interact with
our sites. If you ever decide in the future that you would like to update these
preferences, you may log into your account if you have created one with us or
you may send us an email at privacy@thetrapdoormovie.com and
we will edit your preferences accordingly.
Finally, we will not use or transfer
personally identifiable information provided to us in ways unrelated to the ones
described above without also providing you with an opportunity to opt out of
these unrelated uses.
COLLECTION OF INFORMATION BY THIRD PARTY SITES AND SPONSORS
Some of our sites contain links to other sites whose information practices may
be different than ours. Visitors should consult the other sites' privacy
policies before submitting any information, as we have no control over
information that is submitted to, or collected by, these third parties.
We sometimes may offer content or
programs (e.g., contests, sweepstakes, or promotions) that are sponsored by or
co-branded with identified third parties. By virtue of these relationships, the
third parties may obtain personally identifiable information that visitors
voluntarily submit to participate in the site activity. We have no control over
these third parties' use of this information.
The site will notify you at the time
of requesting personally identifiable information if these third parties will
obtain such information.
At some WMP Web sites, reputable third parties may present or serve the
advertisements, provide us with data collection, reporting and ad response
measurement, as well as assist with delivery of relevant marketing messages and
advertisements. These third parties may view, edit, or set their own cookies.
The use of these technologies by these third parties is subject to their own
privacy policies and is not covered by this privacy statement. For more
information about third party ad servers at our sites and your ability to
opt-out of targeted advertising from such third parties, please click
here and also visit the Network
Advertising Initiative.
COOKIES AND OTHER TECHNICAL INFORMATION
We, our third party service providers, and our partners may send "cookies" to
your computer or use similar technologies to enhance your online experience at
our sites and across the Internet. "Cookies" are files that can identify you as
a unique customer and store your personal preferences as well as technical
information (including click through and click stream data). Cookies manage and
measure the performance of advertisements displayed on or delivered by or
through WMP
and/or other networks or sites. Cookies can either be permanent (i.e., they
remain on your computer until you delete them) or temporary (i.e., they last
only until you close your browser). We may also use "Web beacons" that monitor
your use of our sites. Web beacons (or Web bugs) are small strings of code that
provide a method for delivering a graphic image on a Web page for the purpose of
transferring data, such as the IP (Internet Protocol) address of the computer
that downloaded the page on which the Web beacon appears, the URL (Uniform
Resource Locator) of the page on which the Web beacon appears, the time the page
containing the Web beacon was viewed, the types of browser that fetched the Web
beacon and the identification number of any cookie on the computer previously
placed by that server.
When corresponding with you via HTML
capable e-mail, Web beacons let us know whether you received and opened our
e-mail.
On their own, cookies or Web beacons
do not contain or reveal any personally identifiable information. However, if
you choose to furnish personally identifiable information, this information can
be linked to the data stored in the cookies/Web beacons.
By accepting this Privacy Policy, you
specifically agree to our use of cookies and Web beacons as described herein.
You may adjust your browser to reject cookies from us or from any other Web
site. Additionally, by setting your Web browser to display HTML e-mails as text
only, you may be able to prevent the use of some Web beacons. Please consult the
"Help" section of your browser for more information. However, certain areas of
our sites can only be accessed in conjunction with cookies or similar devices
and you should be aware that disabling cookies or similar devices might prevent
you from accessing some of our content.
OUR COMMITMENT TO SECURITY
We have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures
to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and
correctly use the information we collect online.
HOW YOU CAN ACCESS OR CORRECT INFORMATION
To access the personally identifiable information that this WMP Web site has
collected about you online from the pages on which this Privacy Policy is
posted, to correct factual errors in such information, or to update your
interests, preferences or other portions of your user profile, please log into
your profile if you have created one with us or send an email to privacy@thetrapdoormovie.com.
To protect your privacy and security,
we will take reasonable steps to help verify your identity before granting
access or making corrections.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
Visitors to this site may participate in many activities without providing any
personally identifiable information. However, if a user wants to participate in
certain of our interactive features, we ask the user to register and provide us
with the following information: the user's e-mail address and age information.
When the person who registers indicates that he or she is under 13 years old, we
will either (i) collect no personally identifiable information from that
individual, (ii) inform the child that a parent's verifiable consent is
required, or (iii) collect the e-mail address of the user's parent in addition
to the user's e-mail address. We use the parent's e-mail address to seek the
parent's verifiable consent or notify the parent of his/her child's online
activities and enable the parent to unsubscribe his/her child from a newsletter
or other similar activity. If a user is under 13, we will not condition his/her
participation in an online activity on the disclosure of more information than
is reasonably necessary to participate in the activity. We do not share
children's information with outside third parties not bound by this Privacy
Policy for their own marketing purposes. If you would like to review any
personally identifiable information that we have collected online from your
child, have this information deleted, and/or request that there be no further
collection or use of your child's information or if you have questions about
these information practices, you may contact us at
privacy@thetrapdoormovie.com , or at WMP, C/O Hi Point Studios, 5907 Pico
Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90019.
NOTIFICATION REGARDING UPDATES
From time to time, we may update this privacy notice. We will notify you about
material changes in the way we treat personally identifiable information by
placing a notice on our site. We encourage you to periodically check back and
review this policy so that you always will know what information we collect, how
we use it, and to whom we disclose it.
HOW TO CONTACT US
If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy or its
implementation you may contact us at
