The Movie Insider is committed to protecting the privacy and security of our
users. The following privacy policy describes what kind of information
we collect and how it is used. We believe that this policy will enable
our visitors to protect their privacy while enjoying at our site.
The Movie Insider regularly tracks general
data about our site, such as the number of visitors, to improve and
enhance our site and its features. The Movie Insider uses this general
demographic information to tailor our services and features to our
users’ needs and preferences. We may share this general data with
third parties from time to time.
In addition, The Movie Insider also collects
certain personally identifiable information from its users. This
information is specific to the user and is used for a variety of
purposes as set forth below. The following describes the kinds of
personally identifiable information that we collect and how it is used.
The Movie Insider
requests personally identifying information about you and your interests
when you register within the The Movie Insider site. Such information may
include, but is not limited to, name, address, e-mail address, gender
and age. The Movie Insider
uses this information to track the overall demographics of our user
base. We also use the personal information internally to determine what
kinds of features and information to offer our users, to enhance the
design and layout of our site, and to inform users of new features,
products or offerings on our site. The Movie Insider
currently does not share this registration information with any third
parties. This may change in the future; if this does change we would
require such third parties to use the information only to the extent
necessary to provide you their services or to notify you of new products
and services. We will also require such third parties to take reasonable
measures to protect the security and privacy of this information and to
allow our users to request that they not be contacted with unsolicited
emails or other communications.
The
newsletter and email updates will provide links to new information on
the The Movie Insider web site as well as other information or services that
may be of interest to our users, such as special offers and features.. The Movie Insider
does not currently rent or sell its newsletter subscriber lists to third
parties. However, the newsletters may contain advertisements and
promotions on behalf of third party sponsors or advertisers and we may
send you notices on behalf of those sponsors or advertisers. We may also
notify our third party sponsors or advertisers of your email address if
you have indicated an interest in finding out more about their products
and services. We will require our third party sponsors or advertisers to
take reasonable measures to protect the security and privacy of your
e-mail address. If
you want to update your e-mail address or want to request that you stop
receiving e-mail newsletters or e-mail announcements, you will find
details to the end the email that we have sent to you.
The Movie Insider
also requests personally identifiable information about you when you
enter one of our contests, sweepstakes or promotions. We may share the
personally identifiable information with third parties in the same
manner as we share registration information. If you enter a contest or
sweepstakes, there will often be a separate set of rules that will
govern your participation in such events. You should also review the
contest rules for any special arrangements that might apply to that
contest. For example, we may notify third parties of your name and
address so that they can send you the prize.
The Movie Insider
may conduct user surveys or polls from time to time. You are not
required to respond to such surveys or polls. We may share the general
aggregate data from such polls with third parties to better understand
the needs of our users and the effectiveness of the services and
advertising on the The Movie Insider site. We will not share personally
identifiable information from such polls with third parties, although we
may store such information on our systems for use in developing services
and features that suit our users’ needs and interests.
