Privacy Policy
wePlaytv.com Privacy Policy
Effective date: July 9, 2008
At wePlaytv.com we believe the privacy of members and guests of our website is very important. We have designed this privacy policy (“Policy”) to answer your questions and concerns about our privacy policies and principals. This Policy applies to the wePlaytv.com website located at http://weplaytv.com (the “Site”) and all associated products and services available on the Site (the “wePlaytv.com Services”). This Policy does not apply to the practices of companies that wePlaytv.com does not own or control, or to people that wePlaytv.com does not employ or manage.
As used in this Policy, “wePlaytv.com” refers to wePlaytv.com Company, a Delaware corporation, owner and operator of the Site, and any of its subsidiaries and affiliates.
What information do we collect, and how do we use it?
This Policy describes wePlaytv.com’s use and sharing of your personally identifiable information (first and last name, mailing address, zip code, birth date, gender, email address, telephone number, username, password, and credit card information) that you voluntarily provide when you register with the Site.
When you sign up for additional wePlaytv.com Services on the Site, such as entry into special contests, sweepstakes or surveys, additional personal information may be collected (hobbies, sports, music, entertainment, academics and other personal interests), and is used to personalize your wePlaytv.com experience and provide you with information we think may be of interest to you or that you have specifically consented to receive.
When you sign up with wePlaytv.com and as you use the wePlaytv.com Services, we also record your decision to: (1) receive email updates from wePlaytv.com; and (2) have a third-party sponsor contact you to provide information regarding their product or services.
In addition, wePlaytv.com may collect other non-personally identifiable information, such as log files, IP address, browser type and aggregate user data, to track usage, user demographics, improve the Site and for security purposes. We may periodically prepare analyses or reports about visitor and member use of the Site and wePlaytv.com Services for our own use as well as for a limited number of our business partners. These reports include aggregate (non-personal) information about wePlaytv.com members, and in certain instances, visitors to the Site. The information in these reports will not identify you individually. Our business partners who have access to these reports will not be able to contact you from the information contained in the reports.
Under what circumstances do we disclose your information?
We may disclose your personal information to respond to legal requirements, enforce our policies, respond to claims that your posting and/or other content violates the rights of others, or protect anyone's rights, property, or safety.
We may also share your personal information with:
- charitable foundations and organizations to facilitate our scholarship and charitable donation programs.
- service providers under contract who help with our business operations (such as marketing, contests, investigation of unlawful activities, and affiliate and rewards programs).
- other third parties that you ask us to send your information to (or about whom you are otherwise explicitly notified and consent to when using a specific service).
- law enforcement or other governmental officials relating to alleged illegal activity. In such events, we will disclose information relevant to the investigation, such as name, city, state, zip code, telephone number, email address, user name history, IP address, complaints, postings and other content.
- other business entities, should we plan to merge with, or be acquired by, that business entity. (Should such a combination occur, we will require that the new combined entity follow this Policy with respect to your personal information. If your personal information will be used contrary to this Policy, you will receive prior notice.)
However, in an effort to respect your privacy and our ability to keep the Site free from bad actors, we will not otherwise disclose your personal information to law enforcement, other government officials, or other third parties without a subpoena, court order or similar legal procedure, except when we believe in good faith that the disclosure of information is necessary to prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss or to report suspected illegal activity.
Further, if you post personal information on wePlaytv.com bulletin boards, in chat sessions or as part of your wePlaytv.com profile, such as your name, email address, phone number, school, hobbies and interests, or photographs, this information will be viewable by visitors and members of wePlaytv.com. You should always be careful in disclosing information that is personally identifiable.
What is the process for changing the Policy, and when will you be deemed to have agreed to the Policy?
We may amend this Policy from time to time. By using this Site you are agreeing to the terms of this Policy. If there are material changes to the way we collect, use and/or share personal information, we will provide you with notice via email. We will also post a link to our revised privacy policy on our home page so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. It is most likely that any material changes to this Policy will be to conform to applicable laws. Be sure to update wePlaytv.com with any changes to your contact information, including email address. Your continued use of this Site will constitute your acceptance of any revised privacy policy.
To what extent do our employees have access to your information?
We may employ other companies and individuals to perform certain functions on our behalf. Examples include sending direct and electronic mail, removing duplicate information from customer lists, analyzing data, and providing marketing analysis. These agents may have access to member personal information as needed to perform their functions for wePlaytv.com, but we do not permit them to use it for other purposes.
What are cookies, and how do we use them?
A cookie is a small bit of information placed on your computer by a website you've visited. We use cookies to, among other things, save your password so you don't have to re-enter it each time you visit the Site and to deliver personalized content. Many web browsers are automatically set to accept cookies. You can change your browser settings to either reject cookies or notify you when a cookie is about to be placed on your computer. Please note, however, that rejecting cookies while visiting the Site may result in certain parts of the Site not operating correctly or as efficiently as if they were allowed. For example, if you are a wePlaytv.com member, you may need to enter your username and password each time you visit the Site.
We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our behalf. These companies may employ cookies and action tags (also known as single pixel gifs or web beacons) to measure advertising effectiveness. Any information that these third parties collect via cookies and action tags is completely anonymous.
To what extent do advertising networks have access to your information?
Most advertisements you see on the Site are served to your web browser by wePlaytv.com. However, wePlaytv.com may allow ad networks to serve advertisements within the Site or through wePlaytv.com Services. Ad networks include third-party ad servers, ad agencies, ad technology vendors, and research firms. We only authorize our third-party ad networks to employ anonymous cookies for ad delivery and anonymous targeting. Our third-party ad servers do not collect, nor do we give them access to, any personally identifying information about you.
wePlaytv.com may also include a file, called a web beacon, from these ad networks within pages served by wePlaytv.com to assist with auditing, research, and reporting for advertisers. Because your web browser must request these advertisements and web beacons from the ad network's servers, these companies can view, edit or set their own cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site. If you want to prevent a third-party ad server from sending and reading cookies on your computer, currently you must visit each ad network's website individually and opt out (if they offer this capability). Please contact us if you would like additional information regarding the specific third-party ad networks used on the Site.
What kinds of security procedures are in place to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of information under our control?
wePlaytv.com takes every reasonable precaution to protect our users’ information. When you submit sensitive information via our service, your information is protected both online and off-line. We have physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect personal information about you. However, we cannot guarantee that communications between you and wePlaytv.com will not be intercepted by others and that information stored on our servers will be free from unauthorized access. While we have taken reasonable precautions to protect this information, you should always use discretion in what information you send to us and not expect that such information will be absolutely free from intrusion. In particular, you should be aware that information you may post on wePlaytv.com bulletin boards, chat sessions, or as part of your wePlaytv.com profile, will be viewable by wePlaytv.com visitors and members. If you have any questions about the security of our service, please contact us.
What happens to the security of your information when you click on a link directing you to another website?
You should be aware that when you are on the Site or when you receive emails sent as part of wePlaytv.com Services, you could be directed to other sites beyond our control. This includes links from advertisers, sponsors and partners that may use the Site's logo. These other websites may send their own cookies to you, independently collect data or solicit personal information and may or may not have their own published privacy policies. If you visit a site that is linked from our Site or a wePlaytv.com email, you should consult that site's privacy policy before providing any personal information.
What control do you have over your personal information?
If you are a registered user of our wePlaytv.com Services, you may view, correct, and delete your personal information, or remove your profile entirely from view by others online, simply by logging into your account and editing your profile, or by contacting our customer support. To have all of your personally identifiable information removed from view by others online, except any record that we need to keep to comply with federal, state or local law, send an e-mail request to removeprofile@wePlaytv.com. Generally, you should be careful when making any personal information available to the public.
To what extent may children use the Site?
WePlaytv.com is a general audience website and in accordance with federal law, we do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under age 13. If you are under age 13, you are welcome to browse our Site. However you are not permitted to use any of the features of our Site that require the collection of any personally identifiable information.
How does California law affect the security of your information?
Beginning on 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 privacy@wePlaytv.com or mail us at the below address.
