RADIO WAZEE
PRIVACY POLICY
Table of Contents
WWW.WAZEE.ORG
(“Site,” “us” or “we”)
is the official website for RADIO.WAZEE
(“Station”). This Site is owned and operated
by WAZEE MULTIMEDIA, LLC (“Owner
and Operator”).
Your privacy is very important
to us. Because we gather certain types of personally
identifiable information (“Personal Information”)
from users of our website, we feel you should know
how we use the Personal Information that you may voluntarily
provide us and the Personal Information that is collected
passively through the use of cookies or image tags.
The Privacy Policy is a part of the Site’s Terms
of Use Agreement, which is binding on all users.
Unless specified otherwise
on the Site, users must be at least 18 years of age
and a legal resident of the United States before participation
in any activity that requires the submission of Personal
Information. By your participation in our Site activities,
you certify that you are at least 18 years of age.
All users of the Site are required to provide true,
current, complete and accurate Personal Information
when prompted and we will reject and delete any entry
that we believe in good faith to be false or fraudulent.
If you do not agree
with this Privacy Policy, please do not participate
in the Site’s activities or services that require
you to provide your Personal Information. (The type
of Personal Information is listed below.) Your
continued participation indicates your acceptance
of this Privacy Policy and of the collection, use,
disclosure, maintenance, management and storage of
your Personal Information as described below. This
Privacy Policy will remain in full force and effect
as long as you are a user of the Site. We reserve
the right to revise this policy at any time by updating
this posting without advance notice to you. Such revisions
shall be effective to you as a user of the Site immediately
upon posting. Therefore, we encourage you to check
this Privacy Policy often.
Collection,
Use and Disclosure of Personal Information
Generally, you may browse this Site without providing
any Personal Information. For certain activities (such
as contest and sweepstakes registrations, membership
or registration for chat rooms and message boards)
the Personal Information you voluntarily provide may
include your first/middle and last name, home address,
business address, email address, telephone number,
age, birthdate, gender or personal preferences, depending
on the activity. Your Personal Information will be
used to implement the specific activity or event and
will be used for the marketing of additional events,
services and merchandising for this Site and RADIO.WAZEE.
We will not sell, exchange,
rent, lease or otherwise disclose your Personal Information
to other third-party marketers or any such persons
that are not associated with the Station as an advertiser,
sponsor, or promotional partner (collectively “Advertisers”)
unless it is necessary to 1) conform to regulatory
and legal requirements or to comply with legal process,
2) to protect the safety and security of our users,
employees, or property, 3) to defend the rights of
the Site or the Station, or 4) to enforce the Terms
of Use Agreement. (Specifics on how we may share
your information with Advertisers are explained below.)
It is necessary that we share
your Personal Information with our operational service
providers, the specialists that provide internal support
to our Site design, development, hosting and operations
including maintenance, management, storage and/or
fulfillment of our membership and e-mail clubs, various
contests, sweepstakes, services, events and online
stores. We use operational service providers to efficiently
provide the full range of content, activities and
membership services we bring to you and we request
that our operational service providers also protect
your privacy and not disclose your personal information
with third-party marketers that are not associated
with the Station or website.
Furthermore, we reserve the
right to disclose any and all membership and visitor
databases collected by the website, in the event that
the assets or stock of RADIO.WAZEE,
its corporate licensee or parent company are sold
or transferred to, or merged with a different company
or entity, and to contact you at any time regarding
the administration of the Site, its various activities
and your membership.
We explain below what our policy
is for the collection, use and disclosure of users’
Personal Information for the Site and Advertisers.
Advertising support allows
us to offer, free of charge, many great activities
and services to our users such as contests, sweepstakes
and special events. Therefore, we may also use your
Personal Information for the marketing of events,
products or services of our generous Advertisers.
There are two ways users may receive such marketing
information from Advertisers, either indirectly via
newsletters, email or direct mail from the Site, or
directly from the Advertiser. We primarily provide
such information from our Advertisers on an indirect
basis, through the station or website. However, on
occasion for special events or contests an Advertiser
may wish to provide marketing information directly
to you. The following are the procedures we will take
when an Advertiser wants to contact you directly.
When we plan to share your
information with Advertisers, you will receive such
notice on the Site and/or in the rules of participation
(“Rules of Participation”) for the activity
or event. However, please be informed that our Advertisers
may not have the same privacy policies that we do.
Therefore, you will need to tell us if you do not
want to receive marketing information directly from
our Advertisers. You will need to check the “Opt-out”
click boxes so indicated on the registration area
for the particular event, or notify the Site’s
Administrator via email.
You will also need to tell us if you do not wish to
receive marketing or promotional materials from the
Site and/or Station in the same manner.
We reserve the right to monitor
and edit any Personal Information about our users,
including information about the use of website activities
and services and the contents of users’ email
and messages for internal purposes and when necessary,
to disclose to law enforcement personnel, and/or the
employer and/or Internet Service Provider of a user
that is not in compliance with the Terms of Use Agreement.
We will take such measures if we believe it is necessary
to protect the security and operations of this Site.
We provide aggregate statistics about our users, traffic
patterns and related website information to Advertisers,
reputable third-party vendors or marketing companies,
but these statistics do not disclose Personal Information
about a particular user.
Children’s
Privacy Policy
Although persons of all ages may visit our Site and
participate in activities that do not require the
collection of Personal Information, we do not knowingly
or intentionally collect Personal Information from
children under the age of 13 and will automatically
reject and delete the registration or entry of any
person we believe in good faith to be underage. Any
false or fraudulent registration or entry from a minor
will be deemed to be ineligible and will disqualify
the minor from the receipt of a prize, benefit or
other participation.
E-Commerce
Policy
If this Site sells goods and/or services or provides
auction services we will request Personal Information
that includes your credit card or other payment information,
full name, billing and shipping address, email address
and telephone number and any such information that
is required to fulfill your order and to communicate
with you regarding your order. Sensitive Personal
Information such as credit card account numbers will
be collected though a secured Internet connection
generally via SSL or S-HTTP protocols. We may use
your Personal Information, (but not your credit card
number) to contact you about future products, services
and discounts from the Station or to provide such
information indirectly from our Advertisers, unless
you tell us otherwise. We will only use your credit
card number to complete the specific transaction you
requested.
Advertising
and Other Third-Party Content on the Site
This Privacy Policy does not cover third-party advertising
or third-party content that may be present on the
Site. This Site may provide banner and general advertising,
in addition to other content provided by our Advertisers
or operational service providers. Users may from time
to time enter into correspondence with or participation
in such advertising, promotions or third-party content
offered through the Site. Such correspondence and
agreements are solely between the user and the Advertiser
or the third-party content provider and do not involve
the Site. Also, Advertisers and such third-party content
providers may not have the same privacy policies that
we do and you are encouraged to read their privacy
policy first.
Hyperlinks
to Other Websites
This Site often provides links to third parties’
websites that could be of interest to our users, including
the websites of our Advertisers. These websites do
not have an affiliation with the Site or Station and
may have different privacy policies and business practices
than we do. We take no responsibility for such websites,
as stated in our Terms of Use Agreement. By use of
this Site, you have agreed that you will use the hyperlinks
to third party sites at your own risk.
Cookies
and Image Tags
The use of cookies is an industry standard and they
are currently used on most websites, including this
Site. Cookies are a small text file containing a unique
identification number that is transferred from a website
to the hard drive of a user’s computer so that
the website administrator may identify the computer
and passively track the user’s activities on
the website. Image tags work in conjunction with cookies
and are small image files that may be located on select
pages of our Site, or with-in web-based email newsletters
that we may send. (Image tags are also called web
beacons, web bugs, clear GIFs or single-pixel GIFs.)
Tracking is important because we can better understand
what parts of our website are used the most, when
to launch new services and how to enhance current
offerings. We may share the information we receive
from cookies and image tags with third-parties and
our Advertisers in aggregate form, which means that
such information does not contain specific Personal
Information about any one visitor.
In short, cookies and image
tags collect a user’s Internet protocols and
server information. Such data files allow our Site
to remember your web browser when you visit our Site
and are a necessary tool for quick and efficient access
to membership clubs, awards programs and contests.
A cookie will not allow the Site to learn any Personal
Information (such as your real name and email address)
that you have not otherwise disclosed. Cookies and
image tags allow the Site to remember important information
that will make your use of that Site more helpful.
We do not use cookies or image tags to collect other
Personal Information unless you give us permission
to do so.
You can choose to have your
computer warn you each time a cookie or image tag
is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all such
devices. This is done through your browser. If you
turn cookies off, you may not have access to many
features at our Site that make your Internet experience
more efficient and enjoyable – like the features
mentioned above – and some of our other services
may not function properly.
Security
Measures
We conduct the collection, management, maintenance
and storage of visitor information in a secure and
reasonable manner using acceptable standards of security
technology and practices (e.g., electronic security
systems and password protections) to protect against
the loss, misuse or alteration of Personal Information
data. We also request that our operational service
providers to also take such precautions. WWW.WAZEE.ORG
databases are accessible only by authorized personnel.
However, please note that when
users transmit Personal Information over an unsecured
Internet connection, the Site is not responsible for
the security of that information during the transmission
stage as your email or registration could be copied
or intercepted by unknown third parties. We use a
secured connection only for the sale of goods and
services but we do not use a secured connection for
other types of activities. Therefore, you understand,
acknowledge, and agree that you transmit certain Personal
Information over this Site at your own risk.
Review,
Update, or Deletion of Personal Information
You may review, update or delete your Personal Information
collected by the Site. To do so, please email the
Site’s Administrator via email by clicking here.
To have access to your Personal Information, you must
provide proof of identification such as full name,
street address, city/state and zip code, user ID and
password, and/or information about your recent activity
on the website. We reserve the right to deny access
to any user if we believe there is a question about
your identity. Certain types of Personal Information
that are necessary to check eligibility, such as birthdate
or age, cannot be modified or deleted.
