Privacy Policy
The following Privacy Statement discloses the
information gathering and dissemination practices for MAGIC NINES’ Network of
Web sites (which we collectively refer to below as the “Site”).
Our Site, like most other sites, uses cookies to provide you with a more
personalized and user-friendly experience. A cookie is a message that is sent to
a browser from a Web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Cookies
help us keep track of the size of our audience, the frequency of visits to our
Site and the areas that are most popular. If a guest makes a purchase, cookies
are used to keep the shopping cart active during the shopping process. We may
also use cookies to help us deliver content or advertising specific to your
interests, and to save your preferences or passwords so you don't have to
re-enter them each time you visit our Site. Most browsers allow you to reject
all cookies, but then your preferences, passwords and other information will not
be saved, and you may have to re-enter information to use certain features of
our Site.
We may use an outside ad company to display ads on our Site. These ads may
contain cookies. While we use cookies in other parts of our Web site, cookies
delivered through banner ads are collected by our ad company, and we do not have
access to this information. MAGIC NINES may also serve banner ads that contain
cookies. We will only share such information with our advertisers and sponsors
on an aggregate basis to determine the success of any given banner, logo or
advertisement.
We may also log IP addresses for the purposes of systems administration or to
report information in aggregate form to our advertisers (e.g., how many visitors
logged in to our Web site). In some cases your IP address stays the same from
browser session to browser session; but if you use a consumer Internet access
provider such as AOL or Earthlink or VSNL, chances are that your IP address
varies each session—thus making it effectively impossible for us to use your IP
address (by itself) to determine who you are.
In general, we will not disclose your personal information to third parties
except to the extent necessary to provide you with a requested service, or under
circumstances required by law. We will disclose your personal information when
we believe in good faith that any applicable law, regulation, or legal process
requires it, or where we believe disclosure is necessary to protect or enforce
our rights or the rights of another user. We also disclose aggregated user
statistics in order to describe our services and reach to prospective partners,
advertisers, and other third parties. However, aggregate data is not traceable
to you specifically. We may use contractors to help us with our operations. Some
or all of these contractors may access our databases of user information. These
contractors will enter into an agreement with us that places restrictive
provisions on their use and disclosure of all information they obtain through
the relationship.
Specific uses of personal information that vary from this Privacy Statement (if
any) may be found in the policies applicable to the service or feature you are
signing up for. To the extent that you are notified of uses of your personal
information that are different from those described in this Privacy Statement
during your enrollment in any particular service, special program, contest or
promotion, those uses will govern. For example, if you purchase a T-shirt from a
specific celebrity fan site, that celebrity may be entitled to receive and use
your personal information for limited purposes such as e-mailing you information
about their next film or television appearance. Please be on the look-out for
additional terms of service and privacy statements applicable to the services
for which you sign-up or participate in.
The Site contains links and advertisements to other sites. If you click-through
a banner ad or link and submit your information to that advertiser or site, you
will be subject to their own privacy practices. MAGIC NINES is not responsible
for the privacy practices or the content of such other sites.
The Site makes chat rooms, forums, message boards, and/or news groups available
to its users. Please remember that any information that is disclosed in these
areas becomes public information and that if you disclose personal contact
information in these areas, others may use it to send you unsolicited messages.
We do not control the actions of our guests and registered members. MAGIC NINES
encourages our users to be smart about choosing when, and to whom to release
information online.
Of course there are many other ways we conceivably could get information from or
about you that are not described elsewhere in this Statement. For example, you
might email us through one of our customer service email addresses, or we may
get a complaint about you from a third party. Our practices with respect to such
information are pretty much as you’d expect -- we use and disclose this
information in a commercially reasonable business manner.
This site has industry consistent security measures in place to protect the
loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. But since the
Internet cannot be made absolutely secure, MAGIC NINES assumes no liability for
disclosure of data due to errors in transmission or unauthorized third parties.
If you are a minor under 12, you are prohibited from submitting any personal
information to us.
Our site provides users the opportunity to opt-out of receiving
promotional/marketing information from MAGIC NINES and our partners. We also
provide instructions for how to unsubscribe to future mailings at the bottom of
each communication. Please remember to check the registration screens applicable
to the service or promotion for which you are signing up for specific
instructions from our partners on how to update your user profile and/or opt out
of receiving offers and mailings.
If you have any questions about this privacy statement, the practices of this
site, or your dealings with this Web site, you can contact:
support@magicnines.com
By using the Site, you signify your acceptance of this Privacy Statement. If you
are not comfortable with any policy described in this Privacy Statement, you may
feel free to e-mail us with questions or concerns, but your only remedy is to
discontinue use of the Site. We reserve the right to modify this Privacy
Statement at any time.
