Privacy Policy
Tribe Media Inc. is committed to your privacy and the security of the information you provide to us during your visit to our Website.  We have posted this privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) in order to explain our privacy policies, information collection practices and the choices you have about the way information is collected and used. All capitalized terms that are not defined herein shall have those meanings prescribed to them in Tribe Media Inc.’s terms of use for the Website (the “Terms of Use”), of which this Privacy Policy is incorporated into, and made a part of.  Consistent with the Terms of Use, by use of the Website you agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy, as may be modified from time to time.

Updates
Tribe Media Inc. reserves the right to update or revise this Privacy Policy at any time, in its sole discretion.  As we continue to develop our Website and take advantage of advances in technology to improve the services we offer, this Privacy Policy likely will change.  We will post any changes on the Privacy Policy page of the Website and will revise the “updated” date at the end of this Privacy Policy, but we have no other obligation to notify you of such changes.  We therefore encourage you to refer to this policy on an ongoing basis so that you understand our current privacy policies and practices.

Security
We take appropriate physical, electronic and administrative steps that are reasonably designed to maintain the security and accuracy of personally identifiable information we collect, including limiting the number of people who have physical access to our database servers, as well as employing electronic security systems and password protections that guard against unauthorized access.  Except as otherwise provided in the Terms of Use, it is prohibited to violate or attempt to violate the security or test the vulnerability of this Website in any manner.  Such violations could result in civil or criminal penalties to the extent consistent with applicable law.  See the “User Conduct” section of the Terms of Use for further information.

Personally identifiable information provided on the Website in connection with online credit card transactions are transmitted through a secure server using Secure Socket Layering (SSL) encryption technology.  When the letters “http” in the URL change to “https,” the “s” indicates you are in a secure area employing SSL; also, your browser may give you a pop-up message that you’re about to enter a secure area.  SSL protects your personally identifiable information during data transport.  Please note that e-mail is not encrypted and is not considered to be a secure means of transmitting personally identifiable information or credit card information.  Although we will exercise reasonable care in providing secure transmission of information between your computer and our servers or the servers of third-party service providers we may use, and in storing that information on our systems, or a third-party service provider’s system, no method of transmission over the Internet, or of electronic storage, is 100% secure. So we cannot ensure or guarantee the security of any information transmitted to us over the Internet. 

The Information We Collect
We receive and store two types of information through the Website: (1) personally identifiable information that you supply voluntarily through certain interactive functionality available on the Website or as a result of the Website; and (2) automatic information, such as aggregate tracking and site usage information that we gather on an anonymous basis when you access our Website, in each case, as further described below.  Except as described above, you may browse the Website without providing any personally identifiable information. In certain cases where you choose not to provide us with personally identifiable information, you may not be able to access all or certain areas of this Website, participate in all of its features. “Personally identifiable information” and “automatic information” shall collectively be referred to herein as “information.”
