SnakeNet.Com, the creator of SnakeNetMetalRadio.com (SnakeNet.Com
is referred to herein as " SnakeNetMetalRadio.com "), is committed
to protecting the privacy of its users. This statement discloses
SnakeNetMetalRadio.com's privacy practices and is incorporated into,
and subject to the terms of, SnakeNetMetalRadio.com's Terms of Use.
The purpose of this statement is to inform you as to: What kinds
of information SnakeNetMetalRadio.com collects from users of the
SnakeNetMetalRadio.com Web site and how such information is collected;
How the information is used by SnakeNetMetalRadio.com; Whether SnakeNetMetalRadio.com
discloses any user information to third parties; How you can access,
update or delete any information collected about you by SnakeNetMetalRadio.com;
and The security procedures implemented by SnakeNetMetalRadio.com
to protect your personal information. SnakeNetMetalRadio.com may
change this policy from time to time. If so, any such changes will
be posted on this page, so that SnakeNetMetalRadio.com may keep
its users informed of its information collection practices. Accordingly,
we recommend that you consult this page frequently so that you are
aware of our latest policy.
2. How We Collect Information
When you sign up to use SnakeNetMetalRadio.com, we will ask you
to create a member name. This member name will identify you when
you post messages to our Web site, or when you engage in certain
other activities on the site. In almost all cases, we do not obtain
any personally identifiable information about you unless you choose
to reveal it. Examples of when you voluntarily submit such information
include when you provide an email address on the registration page,
volunteer demographic information in conjunction with sweepstakes
or contests, send us email, respond to emails from us, post messages
or upload content using our service. Thus, you are not required
to disclose any personally identifiable information to us, although
many parts of our site may not be available to you unless you do
so. For example, you must provide your name and contact information
to us in the event you choose to upload content using our service
or in certain other situations. We may also receive personally identifiable
information about you from other users or third parties who may
communicate with us about you (such as in the case of complaints).
When feasible, we do automatically collect your IP address. We also
automatically collect and store statistics and other information
about you and your online activities both on an aggregated, non-personally
identifiable basis and in a manner that may allow us to associate
such information with other personally identifiable information
about you.
3. How We Use and Disclose Your Information
We use your information on an aggregated basis to do such things
as operate our site, enhance and improve our service and sell and
deliver advertising and merchandise. We may disclose aggregated
information about our site to third parties. We do not sell to,
or share your personally identifiable information with third parties.
So, for example, we do not sell your email addresses to spammers
or sell your name and personal demographic information to mass marketers.
In some cases we use your personally identifiable information to
provide information to you, such as to send newsletters and email
that you request or to personalize the site in accordance with your
requests. We will provide you with directions in all emails and
newsletters on how to be taken off our newsletter list. Note that
some online activities in which you choose to participate do necessarily
lead to disclosure of your personally identifiable information to
third parties, such as when you include your name and email address
in messages posted to public areas on our site (such as chat areas)
or sent via our service. In these cases, your choice to disclose
personally identifiable information is voluntary. However, as a
necessary incident of our service, we will make your member name
available for all visitors to see in certain circumstances.
4. Controlling or Changing Your Information
You can access and update your contact information and preferences
by going to your Member profile and following the instructions on
that page. However, to the extent that such information is also
stored in other databases, we cannot always ensure that such corrections
or deletions will immediately reach the other databases. Also, you
cannot manually change your IP address, although we may change it
automatically. If you have any questions, please email us at privacypolicy@SnakeNetMetalRadio.com
5. Cookies and Other Tracking Methods
Cookies are small pieces of information stored on your hard drive,
not on our site. We use cookies on our site for a number of reasons.
Cookies allow us to better understand how users use our site, which
in turn helps us focus our resources on features that are most popular
with our users. You are always free to decline our cookies if your
browser permits, but some parts of our site may not work properly
in that case. In addition to using cookies, in some circumstances
we may track or collect information about your activities on our
site by the numeric address assigned to the computer you are using
(your IP address) or by the URLs that you come from or leave to.
This information is collected and shared with our partners in an
aggregated, non-personally identifiable basis.
6. Other Sites
The SnakeNetMetalRadio.com Web site contains links and references
to other Web sites and organizations, including Web sites owned
or operated by SnakeNetMetalRadio.com's advertisers. Please note
that different rules may apply to the collection, use or disclosure
of your information by third party service providers or vendors
or any other sites you encounter on the Internet (even if these
sites are branded with our branding or framed by our site). We encourage
you to investigate and ask questions before disclosing information
to third parties.
7. Limits on Our Abilities
Although your privacy is very important to us, due to the existing
legal and technical environment, we cannot fully ensure that your
private communications and other personally identifiable information
will not be disclosed to third parties. For example, we may be forced
to disclose information to the government or third parties under
certain circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept
or access transmissions or private communications. Additionally,
we can (and you authorize us to) disclose any information about
you to private entities, law enforcement or other government officials
as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate
to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries.
8. Security
We use industry standard efforts to safeguard the confidentiality
of your personal identifiable information, such as firewalls and
Secure Socket Layers where appropriate. However, "perfect security"
does not exist on the Internet.
9. Third Party Cookies
In the course of serving advertisements to this site, our third-party advertiser may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser.
