PRIVACY POLICY
This site is owned by
Principle Broadcasting Network, LLC (“PBN”) and/or its
subsidiaries. PBN’s privacy policy covers the collection, use
and dissemination of personal information that may be collected
by PBN anytime you interact with PBN on one of its websites,
such as when you listen to audio streams, view video streams,
visit our websites, when you purchase products, or when you
contact PBN. Please take a moment to read the following to
learn more about our information practices, including what type
of information is gathered, how the information is used and for
what purposes, to whom we disclose the information, and how we
safeguard your personal information.
Why we collect
information.
PBN collects information to assist us in delivering a superior
level of product. We collect information to gain a better
understanding of our customers and their needs and thus provide
more valuable services. This helps us to determine how best to
provide useful information to customers and to understand which
parts of our websites and Internet services are of most interest
to them.
It enables us to give you convenient access to our products and
services and focus on categories of greatest interest to you.
In addition, your personal information helps us keep you posted
on the latest product announcements, updates, special offers,
promotions, and events that you might like to hear about.
What information we collect
The information we learn from customers helps us personalize
and continually improve your experience with our products and
services. Here are the types of information we gather.
Automatic Information:
Our servers automatically collect certain
non-personally identifying information, such as your computer’s
IP address, the type of browser in use, and pages viewed,
streams viewed or listened to and when you visit our Sites. We
use this information to understand how visitors navigate through
our Sites and use our products, to enhance your experience while
using our Sites, and to make the materials we post as valuable
to visitors as possible. We do not link this information to
personally identifiable information.
Information You Give
Us:
We receive and store any information you enter during
account creation or any information you voluntarily provide us
in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain
personally identifiable information, but then you might not be
able to take advantage of many of our features. We use the
personally identifiable information that you provide to us for
such purposes as responding to your requests, customizing your
experience, improving our product, and communicating with you.
How we use the
information collected.
There are a number of situations in which your personal
information may help us give you better service.
It helps us gain a better understanding of how our products are
used, including Web traffic patterns and what types of content
are most popular with users of our products and services.
This information is also used to improve our software and
services by providing personalized content recommendations,
location customization, and/or personalized help and
instructions.
We track content accesses and downloads for the purpose of
paying royalties and license fees to third party providers, such
as record labels, advertisers and other copyright holders and
content distributors.
When you create an account — providing your name, email address,
zip code and birth date — and choose a password and password
hint (such as the month and day of your birth) for security. The
system saves your information and assigns you a personal ID — in
many cases simply your email address, because it is unique and
easy to remember. You have the option for streaming services to
“remember” you, and your favorites or other preferences you have
set will be available automatically, and on occasion greet you
by first name. Some this information may, on occasion, be
transferred to 3rd parties to automatically fill in relevant
form fields and simplify the process. This information is not
stored on the 3rd party website until you submit the form.
However, once the form is submitted, then this personally
identifiable information may be stored on the 3rd party website.
If you use a message board, chat room or other means of public
communication, you should be aware that any information you
share is visible to other users. Personally identifiable
information you post as a message to one of these forums can be
read, collected, or used by other individuals to send you
unsolicited messages. PBN is not responsible for the personally
identifiable information you choose to submit in these forums.
Technologies used to collect information.
As is standard practice on many corporate websites, PBN’s
website uses “cookies” and other technologies to help us
understand which parts of our websites are the most popular,
where our visitors are going, and how much time they spend
there. We also use cookies and other technologies to make sure
that our online advertising is bringing customers to our
products and services. We use cookies and other technologies to
study traffic patterns on our website, to make it even more
rewarding as well as to study the effectiveness of our customer
communications. And we use cookies to customize your experience
and provide greater convenience each time you interact with us.
For example, knowing your first name lets us welcome you with a
greeting the next time you use our products.
Our advertisers help us
deliver a number of useful services which are free of charge to
you. Our advertisers will often employ the use of a
“click-through URL” linked to content on their website. When a
customer clicks one of these URLs, they pass through a web
server before arriving at the destination web page. They track
this click-through data to help determine general interest and
measure the effectiveness of customer communications.
Intended Audience
All PBN websites are intended for United States Audiences
over the age of 13. All of our services are operated in
accordance with the laws of the United States. We make no
representation that any service offered by PBN is operated in
accordance with the laws or governed by other nations. Please
be aware that any personal information you transfer to us will
be transferred to the U.S and is subject to U.S. law. We will
reject or delete any personally identifiable information that we
believe in good faith to be inconsistent with this Privacy
Policy.
Children’s Privacy
Policy
Although persons of all ages may visit our websites and
participate in activities that do not require the collection of
personal information, we do not knowingly or intentionally
collect personal information from children under the age of 13.
Except for the limited circumstances listed below, we will
automatically reject and delete the registration or entry of any
person we believe in good faith to be underage. Any false or
fraudulent registration or entry from a minor will be deemed to
be ineligible and will disqualify the minor from the receipt of
a prize, benefit, or other participation.
Except to meet Federal
Communications Commission ("FCC") regulations, as required by
applicable laws, or other regulatory and legal purposes, we will
not use, store, or disclose any child's personal information to
a third party without prior parental consent.
When we disclose
information.
PBN does not use your personal information for purposes
incompatible with those listed above. PBN does not sell, rent,
or share your personal information to a third party unless you
consent to provide such information to a third party partner or
content service.
In some cases, access to certain products and services, such as
content subscription products or products distributed by third
parties, may require the provision of personal information to a
third party, such as a content provider or distributor. In such
cases, this will be stated during the registration process, in
the terms of use, through the distribution process, or in a
similar manner. The third party’s use of such information is
governed by that party’s privacy policy, and PBN’s use is
governed by this privacy policy. Please visit the privacy
policy of the content partner to make sure you understand how
they use the personal information you provide to them. If you
do not wish for such a transfer to take place, you should not
register for the applicable product or service. Additionally,
PBN may be required to provide specific access and usage
information to certain content providers and rights holders as a
condition of content licensing and royalties. In such cases,
PBN may provide content usage, access, demographic and other
information without your personally identifiable information
(your name, billing information, email address) to the content
provider.
PBN may disclose relevant
information about our customers to our contractors (e.g. a
customer service contractor or a credit card clearing service)
in order for them to provide specific services for PBN, and to
better serve our customers. PBN’s contractors are bound by
strict contractual requirements to keep all personal information
they process strictly confidential and to use such information
solely on behalf of PBN.
Also, PBN may disclose your personal information if required to
do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is
necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply
with legal process served on PBN; (b) protect and defend the
rights or property of PBN and its products; or (c) act in urgent
circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of PBN
products or the public at large.
Links to other websites.
PBN websites and products contain links to other websites
and products. PBN is not responsible for the privacy practices
or the content of such websites or products. Please visit the
privacy policies of these third party sites in order to
understand their privacy policies and data collection
practices. PBN has no liability for these third party sites,
their policies or actions.
Security of personal
information
The security and confidentiality of your information is
extremely important to us. We have implemented technical,
administrative, and physical security measures to try to protect
guest information from unauthorized access and improper use.
From time to time, we review our security procedures in order to
consider appropriate new technology and methods.
PBN shall make all reasonable
efforts to comply with this privacy policy; however, this policy
should not be construed as a contractual undertaking and PBN
cannot warrant the security of any information that you transmit
to us. Please be aware that, despite our best efforts, no
security measures are perfect or impenetrable and by
transmitting personal information over the internet to us, you
are accepting any risks associated with doing so. In addition,
you are responsible for taking appropriate measures to protect
and secure all passwords, log-on or membership identification
information and account information.
California Residents.
As of January 1, 2005, California Civil Code Section 1798.83
permits our customers who are California residents to request
certain information regarding our disclosure of personal
information to third parties for their direct marketing
purposes. To make such a request, please send an e-mail
to smiller@mercurycapitalpartners.com.
Changes to this policy.
We may revise this Privacy Policy to keep it up to date with
PBN’s current policies, practices, products, services and web
pages. PBN reserves the right to revise, change or modify this
policy at any time for any reason. “Updated" may be used to
alert users to recent changes and to the date of the last
update. We also post FAQ’s from time to time on specific
product.
Privacy
questions
If you have questions or concerns about PBN’s Privacy Policy
or data processing or use, please send an email to
