Introduction
MUSIC BOX takes the private nature of your
personal information very seriously.
This privacy policy, which we adapted from
a policy originally provided by Automatic (WordPress.com), describes how we
treat the information we collect when you visit and use our websites. Please
read this notice very carefully.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, MUSIC
BOX collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that
web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser
type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each
visitor request. MUSIC BOX ’s purpose in collecting non-personally
identifying information is to better understand how MUSIC BOX’s visitors
use its website. From time to time, MUSIC BOX may release
non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g. by publishing
a report on trends in the usage of its website.
MUSIC BOX also collects potentially
personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP)
addresses. MUSIC BOX does not use such information to identify its
visitors, and does not disclose such information, other than under the
same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying
information, as described below.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying
Information
Certain visitors to MUSIC BOX’s
websites choose to interact with MUSIC BOX in ways that require MUSIC
BOX to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type
of information that MUSIC BOX gathers depends on the nature of the interaction.
For example, we ask visitors who sign up for MUSIC BOX.com to provide a
username and email address. In each case, MUSIC BOX collects such information
only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the
visitor’s interaction with MUSIC BOX. MUSIC BOX does not disclose
personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors
can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat
that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
MUSIC BOX may collect statistics about the
behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, MUSIC BOX may monitor the
most popular collections on MUSIC BOX.com. MUSIC BOX may display this
information publicly or provide it to others. However, MUSIC BOX does not
disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain
Personally-Identifying Information
MUSIC BOX discloses potentially
personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of
its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that
information in order to process it on MUSIC BOX’s behalf or to provide services
available at MUSIC BOX’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it
to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations
may be located outside of your home country; by using MUSIC BOX’s websites, you
consent to the transfer of such information to them. In addition, in some cases
we may choose to buy or sell assets. In these types of transactions, user
information is typically one of the business assets that is transferred.
Moreover, if MUSIC BOX or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in
the unlikely event that MUSIC BOX goes out of business or enters bankruptcy,
user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by
a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any
acquiror of MUSIC BOX may continue to use your personal and non-personal
information only as set forth in this policy. Otherwise, MUSIC BOX will not
rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying
information to anyone.
Other than to its employees, contractors
and affiliated organizations, as described above, MUSIC BOX discloses
potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only
when required to do so by law, or when MUSIC BOXL believes in good faith that
disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of MUSIC
BOX, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a MUSIC
BOX website and have supplied your email address, MUSIC BOX may occasionally
send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or
just keep you up to date with what’s going on with MUSIC BOX and its products.
If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our
feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us
clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. MUSIC BOX
takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized
access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying
and personally-identifying information.
You should also be aware that if you
submit information to “chat rooms,” “forums” or “message boards” such
information becomes public information, meaning that you lose any privacy
rights you might have with regards to that information. Such disclosures may
also increase your chances of receiving unwanted communications.
Cookies
A cookie is a string of information that a
website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides
to the website each time the visitor returns. MUSIC BOX uses cookies to help MUSIC
BOX identify and track visitors, their usage of MUSIC BOX websites, and their
website access preferences. MUSIC BOX visitors who do not wish to have cookies
placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before
using MUSIC BOX’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of MUSIC
BOX’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
Ads
Ads appearing on any MUSIC BOX websites
may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These
cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you
an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your
computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver
targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This
privacy policy covers the use of cookies by MUSIC BOX and does not cover the
use of cookies by any advertisers.
Links to Third Party Sites
This privacy policy only applies to
information collected by MUSIC BOX. This privacy policy does not apply to the
practices of companies that MUSIC BOX does not own or control, or employees
that MUSIC BOX does not manage. A MUSIC BOX website may contain links to third
party websites. Any information you provide to, or that is collected by,
third-party sites may be subject to the privacy policies of those sites, if
any. We encourage you to read such privacy policies of any third-party sites
you visit. It is the sole responsibility of such third parties to adhere to any
applicable restrictions on the disclosure of your personally-identifying
information, and MUSIC BOX and its affiliates shall not be liable for wrongful
use or disclosure of your personally-identifying information by any third
party.
Security
All non-personally-identifying
information, potentially personally-identifying and personally identifying-information
described above is stored on restricted database servers.
Choice/Opt-out
If we ever send you information by email
concerning new products, services or information that you did not expressly
request, we will provide you with an email address by which you may request no
further notices.
Address Book Data
Any external address book data (email
contacts, etc.) that a user voluntarily gives MUSIC BOX access to will only be
used for the described feature (looking up friends, etc.), and will not be stored
or re purposed.
Privacy Policy Changes
Although most changes are likely to be
minor, MUSIC BOX may change its privacy policy from time to time, and in MUSIC
BOX’s sole discretion. MUSIC BOX encourages visitors to frequently check this
page for any changes to its privacy policy. Your continued use of this site
after any change in this privacy policy will constitute your acceptance of such
change.
