AMAMAT's Online Privacy Policy

AMAMAT's Privacy Policy

Your privacy on the Internet is important to us. As part of the operation of AMAMAT, we gather certain types of information about AMAMAT.com users, and we would like to explain the types of information we gather, what we do with it and how to correct or change the information.

Information Collected By AMAMAT

AMAMAT collects two types of personally identifying information from users: personal data (such as names and e-mail addresses); and aggregated data (such as information about traffic patterns on AMAMAT, for example how many users log into AMAMAT on a daily basis).

Personal Data

Personal data is collected when users provide personal data to AMAMAT, for example in registering for electronic newsletters, to become a fan of a particular artist, or other membership services, in answering surveys, purchasing items from AMAMAT, and registering for contests and other promotional opportunities provided by AMAMAT. Also, we collect the e-mail addresses of users who post messages to our message boards and chat areas.

We use third-party companies to serve ads and collect non-personally identifiable information (e.g., the pages you visit, and which links you click, which ads you see and click on, and the categories of search terms you enter) when you visit our web site. These companies may use the information outlined above (which does not include your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to this and other web sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. These companies often use a cookie or third party web beacon to collect this information. If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices about not having this information used by these companies, click here (link to the NAI universal user opt-out).

Aggregated Information

Aggregated information, such as which pages users access or visit and information volunteered by users, such as survey information and/or site registrations, is collected through various methods. For example, AMAMAT collects IP addresses. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you're surfing the Web. Web servers, the computers that "serve up" Web pages, automatically identify your computer by its IP address, and when you request a page from AMAMAT, our servers log your IP address. AMAMAT does not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, so although your session will be logged, you will remain anonymous to us. AMAMAT collects IP addresses for the purposes of system administration and to provide aggregate data to advertisers about the volume of use on AMAMAT.

Use of Cookies

AMAMAT also uses "cookies" to collect information. A cookie is a small data file that most major Web sites write to your hard drive for record keeping purposes when you visit them. Cookies allow AMAMAT to measure activity on the www.AMAMAT.com site ("Site") and to improve your user experience, for example by remembering your passwords and viewing preferences, thus allowing you to visit various member-only parts of the Site without re-registering. Cookies are used by AMAMAT to measure activity on the Site and make improvements and updates based on which areas are popular and which are not. AMAMAT does not use cookies to retrieve information from your computer that was not originally sent in a cookie.

You may occasionally get cookies from our advertisers, which is standard in the Internet industry. AMAMAT does not control these cookies, and these cookies are not subject to AMAMAT's privacy policies.

Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you'd prefer, you can set yours to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, it is possible that some parts of the Site, such as the member-only areas and shopping, contest and game areas, will not function properly if you do so.

Use of Information Collected by AMAMAT

AMAMAT uses both the personal and aggregated information we collect for multiple purposes. The information is used to improve the content of the Site, to customize the content and/or layout of the Site for each individual user and to notify users about updates to the Site or promotional offers or opportunities that we believe will be of interest to you. In addition, any content you submit to the Site (videos, voting, comments, etc.) will be publicly available. From time to time employees may examine this content or other user behavior to confirm that the Terms and Conditions of Use are not being violated. When you send email or other communication to AMAMAT.com, we may retain those communications in order to process your inquiries, respond to your requests and improve our services.

AMAMAT shares aggregated information with third parties for both advertising and promotional purposes. AMAMAT may also share personal information with prescreened third parties for marketing or promotional purposes. AMAMAT will try to provide users with an opportunity to decline this service when such information is requested from you online.

AMAMAT may also share information with consultants and affiliates for internal business purposes and may divulge personal information if such information is subpoenaed, or if AMAMAT believes that any user has committed unlawful acts or acts that endanger the health or safety of another user or of the general public. In some situations, we will share your personal information, on a confidential basis, with third parties who perform a particular service on our behalf, such as sending e-mails. Also, AMAMAT may be sold or transferred to another entity. Should such an event occur, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.

AMAMAT may use third party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our sites. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to our sites and to other Web sites in order to provide advertisements on this site and other sites about goods and services of interest to you. In addition, AMAMAT may share with such companies Web site usage information about visitors to our sites for the purpose of managing and targeting advertisements on our sites. For this purpose, we and our third-party advertising sponsors note some of the pages you visit on our sites through the use of pixel tags (also called clear gifs).

Children and Privacy

AMAMAT encourages parents and guardians to spend time with their children online, and to be fully familiar with the sites visited by their children. At various places on AMAMAT.com, AMAMAT will ask whether users are under the age of 18, or 13, for example when requesting personal information from users, or AMAMAT may ask for parental consent. However, while AMAMAT requests this information or permission, AMAMAT relies on users to be truthful in responding to these questions.

Individuals Under 13

No information should be submitted to or posted on the Site by users under the age of 13 years without the consent of their parent or guardian. AMAMAT does not provide any personally identifying information, regardless of its source, to any third party for any purpose whatsoever unless disclosed during collection. Users under the age of 13 are generally asked not to participate in contests or other promotional opportunities.

Individuals 13 Through 17

AMAMAT requests that children under the age of 18 do not submit or post information to the Site without a parent or guardian's consent. AMAMAT may collect information, including personally identifying information, from users between the ages of 13 and 17, and with the permission of their parent or guardian this information may be used for marketing and promotional purposes by AMAMAT and may be shared with prescreened third parties. If a user or their parent or guardian changes their mind with respect to such use, such user, parent or guardian may stop that use – either by e-mail request or by modifying his/her registration information online as described above in "Use of Information Collected by AMAMAT".

Message Boards and Chat

Please remember that information posted to message boards and chat areas becomes public information. Use caution when posting. Users under the age of 18 should be especially careful not to provide any personally identifying information while using chat rooms or message boards. As set forth in AMAMAT's Terms and Conditions of Use, users of chat rooms and message boards must follow acceptable standards of behavior when posting messages online.

Links to Other Sites

It is important to note that AMAMAT contains links to sites other than www.AMAMAT.com, and that those sites may not follow the same privacy policies as AMAMAT. For instance, if you click on an advertisement on AMAMAT.com, this will take you away from AMAMAT.com and to an entirely different site. This can include links from advertisers, content providers and partners who may use AMAMAT's logo and/or style as a result of a co-branding agreement. These sites may send their own cookies to you, and may collect data and make uses of it that AMAMAT would not.

The use of any information or materials that you may access at these external sites is purely voluntary. You should not rely on their contents without independent and thorough review of the accuracy, completeness. These external sites may also refer to specific commercial products, processes, or services by trade name, trademark, service mark, manufacturer or otherwise. Unless AMAMAT has provided specific authority, such references in no way indicate our endorsement, recommendation or preference. This section should be read in conjunction with the full Terms and Conditions of Use, below.

Additional Information

No transmission of data over the Internet is guaranteed to be completely secure. It may be possible for third parties not under the control of AMAMAT to intercept or access transmissions or private communications unlawfully. While we strive to protect your personal information, AMAMAT cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. Any such transmission is done at your own risk.

Under no circumstances, including but not limited to negligence, shall AMAMAT be liable for any special, incidental or consequential damages that result from the use of information or materials on our sites, even if AMAMAT or an authorized representative of AMAMAT, has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
