This Privacy Policy was last updated on Feb 4th, 2008.

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how MediaZone.com, Inc. ('MediaZone') treats Personal Information that MediaZone collects and receives, including Personal Information related to your use of the MediaZone service. This policy applies to all Personal Information collected or submitted through the MediaZone website, e-mail communications between you and MediaZone or other means.

The term 'Personal Information' means information about an individual that is personally identifiable and not publicly available, such as one's name, contact details, and credit card information, as well as the products and services in which one expresses an interest and/or which one purchases.

Collection of Personal Information

In order to create an account with MediaZone and/or order and access certain services, products and areas provided by MediaZone (collectively, the "Services"), you are required to provide certain Personal Information requested by the online registration feature, ordering feature and/or other pages or functions within the Services. This information may include your legal name, personal address, personal phone number, personal e-mail address, subscriber name or "screen name" and password used to access the Services. The Company reserves the right to request any additional information necessary to establish and maintain your account for use of any of the materials, goods or services available in connection with the Services.

If you choose not to provide requested Personal Information, you will not be able to register with MediaZone, subscribe to the Services, make any purchases or other transactions through the Service, or obtain other services or benefits that require such disclosure.
MediaZone is the sole owner of all Personal Information provided to it, subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy. In the event MediaZone is acquired by, is merged into or is otherwise succeeded by another company, MediaZone reserves the right to transfer its ownership of such Personal Information to such other company without notice to you. In the event of such a transfer, the privacy policy of the other company, to the extent it has one, may supplant this Privacy Policy.

MediaZone may provide your Personal Information to third party subcontractors for the purpose of processing payment, delivering goods or services to you or for other purposes related to your purchase or use of the Services. MediaZone will provide those third parties only the information they need to perform the contemplated services.

Opt Out

As a subscriber or registrant to MediaZone, you may be sent email correspondence providing you with an opportunity to opt out of receiving future communications based on your preferences. Except as permitted or required by law or in accordance with this Privacy Policy, MediaZone will not send you offers or other communications if you have opted out of receiving them by clicking the appropriate box(es) during the registration or purchase processes or by opting out of receiving correspondence.

Cookies

Like other major websites, MediaZone uses cookies to track traffic patterns on our website and to provide users with a customized experience when using our products and services. A cookie is a text file that our website transfers to your computer's hard drive for record-keeping purposes and to enhance the quality of your visit to our website. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer.
Most Internet browsers are set up to automatically accept cookies. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, but doing so may limit system performance and may even cause certain features of the website to malfunction or not to work at all. You agree that MediaZone shall not be liable to you for any such malfunction or limited system performance.
MediaZone reserves the right to set and access MediaZone cookies on your computer and to authorize the advertisers on the MediaZone site to set and access their cookies on your computer. MediaZone treats any Personal Information that may be contained in cookies with the same confidentiality as other Personal Information you provide to us. Other companies' use of their cookies is subject to their own privacy policies, not this policy.

Disclosures Required by Law and Investigations

MediaZone reserves the right to disclose your Personal Information in order to comply with any subpoenas, court orders or other legal process, or to establish or exercise MediaZone's legal rights or defend against legal claims.
MediaZone reserves the right to use and disclose your Personal Information in order to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities, infringement of the intellectual property of MediaZone or a third party, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person or violations of MediaZone's terms of use, or as otherwise required by law.

Security and Confidentiality of Personal Information

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the correct use of Personal Information, MediaZone has put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures which MediaZone regards as appropriate to safeguard and secure the Personal Information MediaZone collects online.
MediaZone uses encryption technology to protect the security of the information collected and transmitted through its website and Services. When MediaZone's registration and order forms ask users to enter sensitive Personal Information (such as credit card number and/or social security number), that information is encrypted and transmitted to a secure database server using Secured Socket Layer encryption technology.
In addition, your MediaZone Account Information is password-protected for your protection. After a successful login, you can change your password at your discretion. MediaZone recommends that you choose a password that would be difficult to guess, that you change your password periodically and that you keep your password secret (including by not allowing friends or family members to use your account and password). You acknowledge that you are responsible for selecting a password and maintaining its secrecy. Under no circumstances will MediaZone be liable to you or any third party for your failure to maintain the secrecy of your password.

No Liability for Acts of Third Parties

Although MediaZone will use reasonable efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of the Personal Information you submit, transmissions made by means of the Internet cannot be made absolutely secure. MediaZone will have no liability for disclosure of information and data you submit to it due to errors in transmission, unauthorized acts of third parties or through the use of third party cookies, programs, routines, viruses or other devices on your computer.
Once you leave the MediaZone site, including by clicking on links on MediaZone's website, you will be subject to the privacy policies of third party website operators and other companies which may differ significantly from this policy. MediaZone encourages you to be aware of when you leave the MediaZone site and to read the privacy policies of each website that collects information from or about you.

Children

MediaZone does not currently accept any information submitted to or through the Services from children under the age of 13. No information should be submitted to MediaZone or through the Services by children under 18 years of age without the consent of their parent or legal guardian. MediaZone does not allow children under 13 to open an account or to receive direct marketing communications arising from their use of the Services and, therefore, MediaZone does not provide any personally identifiable information from children under 13 to any third party.

MediaZone may update this policy from time to time. Any changes or updates will be effective immediately upon posting to MediaZone's website, and your use of the website or any of the Services following such posting constitutes your acceptance of the Privacy Policy as so changed or updated. We reserve the right to notify you about changes in the way we treat Personal Information by sending a notice to one or more of the email addresses specified in your MediaZone account or by placing a notice on the MediaZone site in a manner and for a period of time that we determine in our sole discretion.
