Policy, which describes how ReelClipsTV.com collects, uses, and shares this and other information.
ReelClipsTV.com provides an online video service offering a selection of television shows,

What kind of information does ReelClipsTV.com collect about?
This Privacy Policy covers the information ReelClipsTV.com collects from ReelClipsTV.com's registered users,
including ReelClipsTV.com Premium subscribers, and other visitors to the Properties, whether or not
they are registered. Generally speaking, we collect information from the following sources:
- information you give us, such as during registration or subscription;
- information automatically collected when you visit the ReelClipsTV.com Site or use the ReelClipsTV.com Services, such as via cookies; and
- information from other commercially available sources, such as data aggregators and public databases, or our business partners.
When you register with ReelClipsTV.com or subscribe to ReelClipsTV.com Premium,
we ask for personally identifiable information such as your name, email address,
birth date, gender and address. If you subscribe to ReelClipsTV.com Premium,
ReelClipsTV.com also will collect credit card account data or other payment
method data necessary to process your subscription payments and verify your
assent to the purchase. From time to time, we may also ask you to provide other
information about yourself on an optional basis, such as data we can use to tailor
the advertisements served with the Content to your interests. If you choose to
provide this information, you are giving ReelClipsTV.com permission to use and store
it consistent with this Privacy Policy. Therefore, when you sign in with ReelClipsTV.com,
you are not anonymous to us.
In addition, ReelClipsTV.com automatically collects information about your interactions with the ReelClipsTV.com Site
and the ReelClipsTV.com Services. For example, ReelClipsTV.com automatically collects information about your interactions
with video content on the ReelClipsTV.com Site and on third-party sites that include our Video Player.
In addition, ReelClipsTV.com automatically receives and records information from your computer and browser,
including your IP address, software and hardware attributes, the page you request, and cookie
information, as discussed below in the section titled "What are cookies, and how are they and
other technologies used to collect information?".
We also may collect information about you from other sources, including through commercially
available sources, such as data aggregators, public databases and business partners.
This information may include your interests, purchasing behavior and your activities online,
such as websites visited and advertisements viewed. We may combine all of the information we
collect about you and use it in the manner described in this Privacy Policy.
What are cookies, and how are they and other technologies used to collect information?
Cookies are small bits of information that are stored in separate files within your computer's
Internet browser. Cookies remember information about your activities on a website or other platform.
For example, cookies can store your session for easy sign-in to a website or other platform you have
previously visited. They enable us to make your visits to ReelClipsTV.com more enjoyable.
ReelClipsTV.com may display targeted advertisements based on your activities in connection with the ReelClipsTV.com Services,
which we obtain through cookies and other information about you that we have collected, such as your
interests. ReelClipsTV.com also may receive information from third parties about you and your activities on other
sites that we use for the purpose of serving relevant advertisements to you in connection with the ReelClipsTV.com Services.
ReelClipsTV.com does not provide any personally identifiable information to the advertiser when you interact
with or view a targeted ad, although advertisers (including ad serving companies) may assume that
people who interact with, view, or click targeted ads meet the targeting criteria. Please note
that we may share aggregated and non-personally identifiable information with our advertisers
so they can measure the effectiveness of advertisements viewed in connection with the ReelClipsTV.com Services.
For example, we may tell advertisers the number of users who clicked on a particular advertisement.
Please see the section below entitled "How does ReelClipsTV.com use and share aggregate data?"
Some advertisements displayed in connection with the ReelClipsTV.com Services also may contain cookies
set by third party Internet advertisers (also called "ad networks" or "network advertisers").
For more information on this topic, please refer to the section titled "Are there other parties
collecting information about me that I should be aware of while using the ReelClipsTV.com Services?"
We may use cookies and similar technologies to relate your use of the ReelClipsTV.com Services to personally
identifiable information we obtain from you or from reputable third parties, and to compile aggregate
data (as described below). For example, if you have asked us to send you information about our
upcoming services or promotions, cookie or clickstream data about your activities using the ReelClipsTV.com
Services may allow us to limit the materials we send to you to items that we believe will be of
interest to you, based on your prior online activities and preferences. You can configure your
Internet browser to warn you each time a cookie is being sent or to refuse cookies completely.
However, unless you accept cookies, you will not have access to certain ReelClipsTV.com Services.
We also may use services that collect data remotely by using so-called "pixel tags,"
"web beacons," "clear GIFs," or similar means (collectively, "Pixel Tags"), which can
be embedded on the ReelClipsTV.com Site, in an email message, or on a third party's website or
other platform. A Pixel Tag is a small string of code that provides a way for us to
deliver a small graphic image (usually invisible) on a web page or in an email. Pixel
Tags can recognize certain types of information on your browser, check whether you have
viewed a particular web page or email message, and determine, among other things, the
time and date on which you viewed the Pixel Tag and the IP address of the computer from
which it was viewed. We use Pixel Tags to improve your ReelClipsTV.com experience, including to
provide you with content customized to your interests.
Are there other parties collecting information about me that I should be aware of while using the ReelClipsTV.com Services?
The ReelClipsTV.com Services may be linked to or provided through Internet websites or other platforms
operated by other companies. Some of these websites or other platforms may be co-branded
with our name or logo, even though they are not operated or maintained by us. For example,
users can use the ReelClipsTV.com Services on the websites of ReelClipsTV.com's authorized third party distributors.
ReelClipsTV.com is not responsible for the privacy practices of the websites or other platforms operated
by third parties. Once you have left the ReelClipsTV.com Site by clicking on a link, or if you are using
the ReelClipsTV.com Services on another website or platform, you should check the privacy policy of the
other website or platform to determine how it handles any personally identifiable information
it collects from you.
ReelClipsTV.com carries advertisements from other companies, often with the ability to click through
to websites or properties run by these other companies. ReelClipsTV.com is not responsible for the
privacy practices of advertisers. Once you have left the ReelClipsTV.com Site by clicking on an advertisement,
you should check the privacy policy of the advertiser to determine how it handles any personally
identifiable information it separately collects from you. Please be aware that ReelClipsTV.com does not warn
you when you have chosen to link through to another website or property from the ReelClipsTV.com Site.
Some of the advertisements that appear in connection with the ReelClipsTV.com Services may be delivered
to you by third party Internet advertising companies (also called "ad networks" or "network
advertisers"). These companies may use cookies, web beacons, and other technologies to collect
non-personally identifiable information about your visits to ReelClipsTV.com in order to deliver advertisements
to you, measure their effectiveness, and personalize advertising content. ReelClipsTV.com does not have
access to or control over cookies, web beacons or other technologies that they may use.
The information practices of these advertising companies are governed by their own privacy
policies and are not covered by this Privacy Policy. Some of these advertising companies
may be members of the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI"), a cooperative of online marketing
companies that offers a centralized tool for opting out of behavioral advertising delivered
by each of its member companies. If you would like to obtain more information about the NAI
and make choices about their use of your information, please click here.
How does ReelClipsTV.com use the information it collects about me?
We only use payment information, such as credit card numbers, as necessary for completing a
particular transaction or fulfilling a service (for example, processing payments from our ReelClipsTV.com Premium subscribers).
We use the other information we collect about you in order to establish and enhance our relationship
with you and to help deliver a first-class user experience. ReelClipsTV.com's use of this information includes
the following general purposes: contacting you; customizing the content and advertising you view;
fulfilling your requests for products or services; identifying the comments you post on the ReelClipsTV.com Site;
improving our services; conducting research; compiling aggregate data for internal and external
business purposes; preventing potentially illegal activities; protecting our rights; and other
uses in accordance with our Terms of Use; and for any other purpose disclosed to you at the time
we collect your personally identifiable information.
- provide you with promotional information about ReelClipsTV.com's features, services, and other offerings that may be of interest to you; or
- provide information or offers to you on behalf of ReelClipsTV.com's business partners
(please note that if we were to do this, we would not give those partners personally
identifiable information, such as your name or address, unless you consent to sharing
such information, as explained in the section below entitled "With whom does ReelClipsTV.com share
the information it collects about me?").
We use your first name and last name as your user ID on the ReelClipsTV.com Site and in connection with the ReelClipsTV.com Services.
Therefore, if you register with ReelClipsTV.com and provide this form of personally identifiable information, as well
as other information that you do not set as private and we elect to display, it will be visible by other
users or the public. We will not treat information that you voluntarily make available to other users —
including, for example, in a review or discussion that you post on the ReelClipsTV.com Services — as private.
We transitioned our user IDs on the ReelClipsTV.com Services to reflect a user's full first and last name on December 01, 2009.
If you previously used a user ID on the ReelClipsTV.com Site or in connection with the ReelClipsTV.com Services that does not include
your full name (such as your first name and last initial, or another name you created in the past), that user
ID will be replaced with your first and last name if you have registered on the site or otherwise accepted the
terms of our Privacy Policy in effect since December 01, 2010. This means that your prior user ID will be replaced
by your first and last name anywhere on the ReelClipsTV.com Site where your prior user ID appeared (such as in connection
with posts and comments). In addition, this information will be revealed anytime you post information to the
ReelClipsTV.com Site in the future. Please note that you are not required to agree to have this information appear as
your user ID, but if you do not agree, you will not be able to access some of the ReelClipsTV.com Services. Once you
have included your full name in your user ID, you will not be able to remove it, but you can always cancel
your ReelClipsTV.com account if you wish to do so via the link accessible on the Privacy and Settings page, or here.
ReelClipsTV.com Premium subscribers should review our Terms of Use for our policies on cancellations and refunds, available here.
With whom does ReelClipsTV.com share the information it collects about me?
As described above, we may share information that we have collected about you with other users
and with other entities that use the ReelClipsTV.com Services if you voluntarily make the information public,
including by making it a part of your user ID or posting it in a review or discussion on the ReelClipsTV.com Site.
Only with your consent, we also may share your personally identifiable information
(such as name or email address) with advertisers, business partners, and other entities
that are not affiliated with ReelClipsTV.com who would like to send you promotional information
about their products and services directly. You may opt in to receive any of these
communications (or change your communication preferences) at our Privacy and Settings
page, available here.
Under certain circumstances (for example, if you win a contest), we may post your
personally identifiable information on the ReelClipsTV.com Site and the other Properties. However,
we will notify you of this possibility when collecting the personally identifiable
information that we will use for this purpose, or we will obtain your consent prior to posting.
We may also share your personally identifiable information with companies that provide
services to us, including companies that assist with payment processing, business
analytics, data processing, account management, advertising, and other services.
We require these companies to agree that they will only use personally identifiable
information about you that they have obtained from us to provide us with specific services that we have requested and not for any other purpose. Similarly, we may share your personally identifiable information with other people or entities in order to provide goods or services that you have requested or to complete a transaction at your request.
We may also enter into agreements with outside companies that possess the technology
that allows us to customize the advertising and marketing messages you receive while
using the ReelClipsTV.com Services. Your non-personally identifiable information and clickstream
data about your activities may be shared with these companies so this customization
can be accomplished. Our agreement with these companies restricts them from sharing your
information with third parties or using it for any other purpose. Clickstream and
demographic information may also be shared with our advertisers and business partners.
There may be instances when we may disclose personally identifiable information without
providing you with a choice in order to protect the legal rights of ReelClipsTV.com or its affiliates,
and each of their respective investors, directors, officers, employees, agents, and suppliers;
to protect the safety and security of users of the ReelClipsTV.com Services or to enforce our Terms of Use;
to protect against fraud or for risk management purposes; or to comply with or respond to the
law or legal process or a request for cooperation by a government entity, whether or not
legally required.
If you notify us that you believe your legal rights have been violated by ReelClipsTV.com or another
user of the ReelClipsTV.com Services, we may provide the information that you provide to us to others
to the extent that we believe it is necessary to evaluate and respond to your complaint.
For instance, if you submit a notice of copyright infringement to us, we may send a copy
to the person or entity who uploaded, stored, or transmitted the material addressed by the communication.
If we sell all or part of our business, or make a sale or transfer of assets, or are
otherwise involved in a merger or business transfer, or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy,
we will transfer your personally identifiable information to one or more third parties as
part of that transaction.
How does ReelClipsTV.com use and share aggregate data?
Aggregate data is information that we collect on an individualized basis
(for example, statistics about which videos you watch) but subsequently use in
aggregate form (that is, in a way that combines information about individuals
together so that no individual is identifiable). We may use aggregate data for
a variety of purposes, including for research or analysis, website administration,
advertising, and promotional purposes. Although aggregate data may be based in part
on personally identifiable information about you (for example, we may want to know
the general age range of visitors watching videos on our site), it does not identify
you personally.
We may share aggregated information with various affiliated and unaffiliated entities.
For example, IP addresses are used for system administration and to provide anonymous
aggregated data to advertisers about the volume of use on the ReelClipsTV.com Services and the
specific ReelClipsTV.com Services in which users are most interested. We also may share information
about our users with advertisers so they can measure the effectiveness of advertisements
viewed on the ReelClipsTV.com Services. For example, we may tell advertisers the number of users who
clicked on a particular advertisement. Because this form of data does not identify particular users,
these third parties will not be able to contact you based solely on this data.
Do I have choices about ReelClipsTV.com's use and sharing of the information it collects about me?
Yes, you have choices about our use and disclosure of the information that we collect about you.
Although we require you to provide certain information about yourself if you wish to register on
the ReelClipsTV.com Site or subscribe to ReelClipsTV.com Plus, you have the choice about whether to disclose other
personally identifiable information or other information about yourself. If you choose, you can
disclose this information, for example, in your profile on the ReelClipsTV.com Site, in surveys or in response to other requests for information from ReelClipsTV.com or our business partners. In addition, you can disclose this information by sending emails to ReelClipsTV.com or through the ReelClipsTV.com Services, or by posting information on or through the ReelClipsTV.com Services in discussions, reviews, or other postings that may be viewed by other users or the public.
ReelClipsTV.com respects users' privacy. We will not send you alerts or email updates promoting our site,
or notices about your queues or subscribed content, unless you have opted in to receive them.
We also will not share your personally identifiable information (such as name or email address) with advertisers, business partners, or other entities that are not affiliated with ReelClipsTV.com who would like to send you promotional information about their products and services directly, unless you have opted in to sharing such information. So, if you wish to receive additional communications relevant to you from us or third parties, such as alert messages about your favorite content, you will need to elect to receive them. Therefore, please take that opportunity to review and select your preferences carefully.
Regardless of your choices with respect to promotional communications and updates regarding content,
we may send you administrative messages, service announcements, terms and conditions of your account,
or other similar communications, without offering you the opportunity to opt out of receiving them.
This is important in case we need to communicate with you about items such as your account, billing,
payments, terms of use, pricing changes for ReelClipsTV.com Plus, website maintenance, and other non-promotional matters.
You can change your privacy settings at any time by clicking here, but please note that your first and last name
cannot be set to "private." (Please review the section above entitled
"How does ReelClipsTV.com use the information it collects about me?) You may delete your ReelClipsTV.com account,
in accordance with our Terms of Use, via the link accessible on the Privacy and Settings page,
or here. ReelClipsTV.com Plus subscribers should review our Terms of Use for our policies on cancellations
and refunds, available here. Please note that, if you cancel your account, we may retain some
information about you but we will remove your profile and other public postings from the ReelClipsTV.com Site.
How does ReelClipsTV.com protect the information it collects about me?
We use reasonable physical, technical, and administrative measures to safeguard personally
identifiable information in our possession against loss, theft and unauthorized use, disclosure,
or modification. For example, passwords and other sensitive information are encrypted in transit.
We also take steps to ensure that only those ReelClipsTV.com employees, agents, and contractors who have
a legitimate business reason to obtain access to your personally identifiable information are granted access.
When you enter sensitive information (such as credit card information on our order forms),
we encrypt that information using secure sockets layering technology (SSL), an industry
standard protocol for billing transmission in order to protect the financial information
you send us. We store your payment information in encrypted form.
Despite these efforts, please note that no data transmission or storage can be guaranteed
to be 100% secure. We want you to feel confident using the ReelClipsTV.com Services but we cannot
ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. Please refer to the
U.S. Federal Trade Commission's website for information on how to protect yourself from identity theft.
Do you collect information from children under the age of 13?
ReelClipsTV.com prohibits registration or subscription by, and will not knowingly collect personally
identifiable information from, anyone under 13 years of age.
Do any special considerations apply to visitors from outside the United States?
ReelClipsTV.com is a website based in the U.S., and our offices are headquartered in the U.S.
Please be aware that information you provide to us or we obtain as a result of your
use of the ReelClipsTV.com Services may be processed and transferred to the U.S. and be subject
to U.S. law. The privacy and data protection laws in the U.S. may not be equivalent
to such laws in your country of residence. By using our website, participating in any
of the ReelClipsTV.com Services, or by providing us with your information, you consent to this
collection, transfer, storage, and processing of information to and in the U.S.
What happens when ReelClipsTV.com changes its Privacy Policy?
From time to time, we may revise this Privacy Policy to reflect industry initiatives or
changes in the law or to the scope of the ReelClipsTV.com Services or for other reasons. Therefore,
it is important to check the effective date of the Privacy Policy posted at http://www.reelclipstv.com/privacypolicy.aspx
each time you visit the ReelClipsTV.com Site or use any of the ReelClipsTV.com Services to ensure you are familiar with the
most updated policies and practices. If we make any material revisions to this Privacy Policy,
we will notify you by posting notice on the ReelClipsTV.com Site or by sending you an email to the email
address you most recently provided to us prior to such revisions taking effect. If the material
revisions concern practices where we have represented that we will obtain your consent to use or
disclose your personally identifiable information, we will obtain your consent before taking
any action inconsistent with those representations.
