privacy statement ("Privacy Policy") to confirm our

By using our Services you understand and agree to the terms
outlined below:
1. Scope of Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies solely to RemoTV's treatment of
information collected on its website (the "Site") or
through its Services.
RemoTV's website and its Services are not purposely
directed at children under the age of 13. RemoTV does not
collect or maintain information, via the Site or otherwise,
from those we actually know are under the age of 13.
2. Types of Information
As used in this policy: the term "Personal Information" is
private data that personally identifies you as an
individual, such as your name, address, telephone number
and email address.
"Anonymous Information" is information that does not
identify you as an individual, such as information that is
collected without linking it to any Personal Information.
3. Non-Personal Information Collection and Use
Before you establish an account with RemoTV, you browse our
Site anonymously. RemoTV does, however, use tracking
technologies to collect Anonymous Information about how our
Site and Services are used. For instance, we may collect
information such as the server your computer is logged
onto, your browser type, and how you arrived at one of our
Site.
We may use your Internet Protocol Address ("IP Address") to
help diagnose problems with our own servers and to
administer the Site and Services. If we use your IP
Address in conjunction with any Tracking Technologies
(defined below), we typically use it for such purposes as
remembering the preferences you select when you use the
Services.
Tracking Technologies
We may gather certain information automatically when you
are on our Site and store it in log files. This
information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses,
browser type, internet service provider (ISP),
referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp,
and clickstream data. We use this non-personally
identifiable information to analyze trends, administer the
Site and Services and gather demographic information about
our users as a whole.
A cookie is a small text file stored on a user's computer
for record-keeping purposes. We may use session cookies to
make it easier for you to navigate our Site. A session
cookie expires when you close your web browser. We may
also use persistent cookies to enable us to track and
target the pages that users visit to enhance the Services.
We may use a software technology called clear gifs
(also known as web beacons or web bugs) that help us
better manage the Site and Services by informing us as
to what types of content are popular. Clear gifs are
tiny graphics with a unique identifier that are used to
track online movements of users. Unlike cookies, which
are stored on a user's computer hard drive, clear gifs
are embedded invisibly on web pages. We do not tie
information gathered by clear gifs to our users'
Personal Information.
he exact type of Tracking
Technologies used by RemoTV may vary from time to time.
If you do not want us to use cookies or other Tracking
Technologies we suggest you configure your Web browser
accordingly.
emoTV wants to ensure that you
understand that if we use Tracking Technologies and you
accept them onto your computer, such acceptance in no
way gives us access to your computer or any Personal
Information.
4. Personal Information Use
Registration for our services
You will be asked to provide us with Personal Information
when you register an account with us to download the
software that will enable you to use the Services. In
addition to name, address, telephone number and email
address, we may ask you to provide us with certain
demographic information such as gender, age, salary range,
interests and hobbies, and you will select an account name
and unique password to use the Services.
Information and Media Sharing
You may choose to disclose Personal Information in a
publicly available user profile page that you may edit
and update. When you choose to make Media available to
other users, your account name will be displayed along
with the Media. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT ANY MEDIA THAT
YOU SHARE MAY BE COLLECTED AND FURTHER DISSEMINATED BY
OTHER USERS AND THIRD PARTIES.
Specific Uses of Personal Information
If you are a registered RemoTV user, we will use your
Personal Information to complete a request from you to
provide you with support or information. We may combine
information about your use of the Services with certain
other online and offline information we have about you as a
user and information you have provided to us, as well as
information available from external sources, to customize
your experience using the Services, and present you with
relevant online and offline updates, information and
offers.
RemoTV uses reasonable efforts to limit its use of Personal
Information to ordinary business purposes. RemoTV may use
Personal Information to contact you, via e-mail to provide
you with information that RemoTV believes may be of
interest. Personal Information also might be used for
editorial and feedback purposes, for internal RemoTV
marketing and promotional purposes, for a statistical
analysis of users' behavior, for product development, for
content improvement and to customize the content of the
Services and layout of the Site.
We do share
Anonymous Information with third parties to assist them
in understanding general usage patterns for certain
content, advertisements and promotions available on the
Site and Services.
We will not sell, rent or
lease any of your Personal Information to other
parties. The Personal Information you provide will be
used for our reasonable business purposes and to
contact you. However, we reserve the right to disclose
your Personal Information as required by law and when
we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our
rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding,
court order or legal process served on RemoTV.
5. Opt-Out Right
You may
exercise the right to opt-out of having your Personal
Information used by RemoTV or third parties to send
promotional correspondences. You may update or correct
your personal profile information at any time by
visiting our Account Profile page. [Insert link to such
page here.] Your opt-out rights may be exercised by
contacting RemoTV via email at the address above. All
such correspondence must clearly identify you by name
and address and must identify its purpose as being the
exercise of your opt-out rights. Your opt-out rights
shall not apply, however, in connection with the
administration or maintenance of our Site. Certain
jurisdictions reverse this opt-out procedure. In these
jurisdictions, rather than being permitted to use your
Personal Information until you opt-out, we instead are
prohibited from using your Personal Information unless
you specifically opt-in by granting us permission to do
so. Where we actually know that your Personal
Information has been collected from a jurisdiction with
this type of opt-in rule (e.g., in certain cases it may
be clear from your IP Address or from a Tracking
Technology) we will adhere to those requirements. We
will not, however, undertake any special duty to
investigate where you are located or from what
jurisdiction your Personal Information has been
collected.
The opt-out rights and procedures
described in this section are the default rules and
procedures we use in operating the site and are the
standard by which we adhere to this Privacy Policy.
6. Links to Other Sites
Our
Site and Services may contain links to other sites,
including links to sites independently operated by our
affiliates and other third parties. RemoTV is not
responsible for the privacy practices or the content of
such sites. RemoTV encourages its users to read the
privacy statements of each site they visit.
7. Security
All Personal
Information and Anonymous Information is stored on
physically secured servers.
RemoTV takes all
reasonable security precautions regarding information
stored on or from our Site. For instance, all
communications between our Site and your personal
computer devices support encryption and the https
protocol to communicate with your browser software to
protect the security of your transfer of data. This
represents the industry standard security protocol,
which makes it very difficult for anyone else to
intercept any account or other information, data or
content you send to us.
Due to the open nature
of the internet, however, RemoTV cannot guarantee that
any information stored on our servers, or transmitted
to or from a user's personal computer device will be
free from unauthorized access.
Please be aware
that any communications to or from cellular devices
(including mobile telephones and PDAs) are not
encrypted.
RemoTV disclaims any liability for
any theft or loss of, unauthorized access or damage to,
or interception of any data or communications. By
using the Services, you acknowledge that you understand
and agree to assume these risks.
