Oriental
Tunes.com does not collect personally identifiable information
about individuals except when such individuals specifically
provide such information on a voluntary basis. For example,
such personally identifiable information may be gathered
from a contest or sweepstakes registration, the registration
process for subscription sites or services and in connection
with content submissions, community postings (e.g., chat
and forums), suggestions, voting/polling activities and
transactional areas. Personally identifiable information
on individual users will not be sold or otherwise transferred
to unaffiliated third parties without the approval of
the user at the time of collection. At such points of
collection, the user will have the opportunity to indicate
whether he or she would like to "opt out" of
receiving promotional and/or marketing information about
other products, services and offerings from Oriental Tunes.com
and/or any third parties. Further, notwithstanding any
opt out of promotional information by the user, Oriental
Tunes.com reserves the right to contact a subscriber regarding
account status, changes to the subscriber agreement and
other matters relevant to the underlying service and/or
the information collected.
Oriental
Tunes.com reserves the right to perform statistical analyses
of user behavior and characteristics in order to measure
interest in and use of the various areas of the site and
to inform advertisers of such information as well as the
number of users that have been exposed to or clicked on
their advertising banners. Oriental Tunes.com will provide
only aggregated data from these analyses to third parties.
Also, users should be aware that Oriental Tunes.com may
sometimes permit third parties to offer subscription and/or
registration-based services through a Oriental Tunes.com
site. Oriental Tunes.com is not responsible for any actions
or policies of such third parties and users should check
the applicable privacy policy of such party when providing
personally identifiable information.
Additionally,
users should be aware that when they voluntarily disclose
personally identifiable information (e.g., user name,
e-mail address) on the forums or in the chat areas of
the Oriental Tunes.com sites, that information, along
with any substantive information disclosed in the user's
communication, can be collected and correlated and used
by third parties and may result in unsolicited messages
from other posters or third parties. Such activities are
beyond the control of Oriental Tunes.com.
Users
also should be aware that non-personal information and
data may be automatically collected through the standard
operation of Oriental Tunes.com's internet servers or
through the use of "cookies." "Cookies"
are small text files a web site can use to recognize repeat
users, facilitate the user's ongoing access to and use
of the site and allow a site to track usage behavior and
compile aggregate data that will allow content improvements
and targeted advertising. Cookies are not programs that
come onto a user's system and damage files. Generally,
cookies work by assigning a unique number to the user
that has no meaning outside the assigning site. Users
should be aware that Oriental Tunes.com cannot control
the use of cookies or the resulting information by advertisers
or third parties hosting data for Oriental Tunes.com.
If a user does not want information collected through
the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure in most
browsers that allows the user to deny or accept the cookie
feature; however, users should note that cookies may be
necessary to provide the user with certain features (e.g.,
customized delivery of information) available on the Oriental
Tunes.com Site.
Upon
request, Oriental Tunes.com will allow any user to "opt
out" of further promotional contacts at any time.
Additionally upon request, Oriental Tunes.com will use
reasonable efforts to allow users to update/correct personal
information previously submitted which the user states
is erroneous to the extent such activities will not compromise
privacy or security interests. Also, upon a user's request,
Oriental Tunes.com will use commercially reasonable efforts
to functionally delete the user and his or her personal
information from its database; however, it may be impossible
to delete a user's entry without some residual information
because of backups and records of deletions.
We
provide links to other World Wide Web sites or resources.
We do not control these sites and resources, do not endorse
them, and are not responsible for any aspects of those
sites, including their availability, content, accuracy,
legality or delivery of services. You waive any claim
resulting from your exposure to material on or through
Oriental Tunes.com that is offensive, indecent, or otherwise
objectionable.
The
foregoing policies are effective as of December 20, 2000.
Oriental Tunes.com reserves the right to change this policy
at any time by notifying users of the existence of a new
privacy statement. This statement and the policies outlined
herein are not intended to and do not create any contractual
or other legal rights in or on behalf of any party.
