Privacy
Policy
MusicBizAdvice.com.com is committed to protecting our users' privacy. Keeping the information
you share with us on the Site secure and ensuring your understanding of how we collect,
use and maintain your information is important to us at MusicBizAdvice.com.com. We maintain
physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your information and while no
data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure from intrusion, we have used and will
continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the protection of your
information. We continually assess new technology for protecting information and, when
appropriate, we upgrade our information security systems.
Because of its importance and to make it easier for you to find and review it, we have
made this Privacy Policy into a separate document on the Site. However, bear in mind it is
a part of our agreement with you and the terms and conditions contained in our
User Agreement describe how and when we may make changes to these
statements and terms, and how they become binding upon you. We again remind you to check
back here and to our User Agreement often to be sure you remain mindful of the terms and
conditions that apply to you when you use the Site.
Disclosure (General)
Although your privacy is very important to us, in this legal and technical environment, we
cannot fully ensure that your personally identifiable information will not be disclosed to
third parties. Please see "Disclosure
to Third Parties", below, for more information.
Overview
This Privacy Policy is intended to explain our privacy practices and inform you as to:
the kinds of information we collect from users of the Site and how that information is
collected;
how we use the information; the circumstances under which we disclose information to third
parties; how you can access, update or delete any information collected about you by us;
and
the mechanisms we have implemented to protect your personally identifiable information.
You can visit the Site and learn about our company and its Products, as well as certain
goods and services available from our advertisers and suppliers.
Personally Identifiable Information
When we use the term "personally identifiable information" we mean information
such as your full name, street address, town or city, state, zip code, telephone number,
instant-messenger nickname, date of birth, e-mail address and any other information that
would allow someone to identify you or contact you. Personally identifiable information
also includes information about your transactions or relationship with us, if you have
been a customer or you have provided this type of information to MusicBizAdvice.com. For
example, if you order any of our Products, in addition to your name and contact
information, we will also collect and maintain your billing address, shipping address,
Product selections, your credit card or other payment instrument information, your order
number, and information about your computer's internet address and web site which may have
referred or directed you to the Site (e.g., the referring URL). We collect this and other
information to fill your order, to communicate with you about your order and to send you
promotional materials.
Although we may track the numbers of visitors to inform us on how best to update the Site
and enhance the experience for all visitors, personally identifiable information is not
extracted in this process. We use tracking information on an aggregated basis to help us
operate the Site, enhance and improve our service, improve the look of the Site and
display advertising and marketing information.
We collect personally identifiable information about you when you visit the Site and input
information, whether you are registering to use the Site, enrolling or signing up for
features and functions, participating in Promotions, ordering or purchasing Products or in
the course of any other exchanges of information, transactions and activities. We may use
the information we obtain from you, including personally identifiable information, to
tailor your experience on the Site, to display content we think may be of interest to you,
or to let us customize what you see when you visit the Site according to your preferences.
Some features and functions of the Site require you to register or obtain our permission
before you can use them - for security, identification and marketing reasons, among others
- and as part of that process we may ask you to provide us with certain personally
identifiable information. In addition, during the registration process we will also ask
you to select (or we may provide) a user ID and password (we will allow you to change your
password, as well as any personally identifiable information you have given us in order to
keep this information current). Among other things, this information helps us securely
identify you as a registered or permitted user of those features and functions.
When you submit information to us, it does not guarantee that we will permit you to use
any or all of the features or functions of the Site.
The personally identifiable information you provide to us, as well as any information,
personal or otherwise, that you create and which may be saved on or in association with
the Site, is used to provide you with better service. It allows us to save you time and
money and better understand your needs. It also helps us help you learn more about your
preferences and those goods and services that may be of interest to you. For example, we
track your information to assist us in confirming and filling orders, producing reports,
maintaining quality control, administering and managing the Site and our business, and,
whenever it may become necessary or appropriate, to contact you concerning your orders,
your transactions or any other activities associated with the Site. We may use your
personally identifiable information to advise you of goods or services, including
Products, which may be available from MusicBizAdvice.com.com, its suppliers and advertisers.
If you are a registered user, you also acknowledge, understand and hereby agree that you
are giving us your consent to track your activities and your use of the Site and its
functions and features, in connection with your registration and use of the Site.
Cookies: We may use 'cookie' technology to collect data regarding your
visits to the Site. This data is stored in aggregate form and is not used to identify any
particular user or individual. We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies in a
variety of ways, including:
keeping count of your return visits to the Site or our advertisers' or partners' sites;
accumulating and reporting aggregate, statistical information in connection with the Site;
determining which features users like best; and saving your user ID, your password or
other information so you don't have to re-enter it each time you visit the Site.
Third Parties on our Site: Our Site may contain advertisements,
references and links to other web sites and organizations. We may also use third parties
to display or serve advertising on the Site and our web-based newsletters. Often these
third party advertising companies employ cookie and web bug technologies to measure
advertising effectiveness. You should be aware that different rules may apply to the
collection, use or disclosure of your information by third parties in connection with
their advertisements, promotions and other web sites you encounter on the Internet. The
use of such technology by these third parties is within their control and not ours, and
even if we have a relationship with the third party, we do not control those sites or
their policies and practices regarding your information and we encourage you to
investigate and ask questions directly of them in this regard.
Disclosure to Third Parties:
MusicBizAdvice.com adheres to CAN-SPAM policies.
Except as described in this Privacy Statement, MusicBizAdvice.com.com uses good faith efforts
not to provide third parties with access to your personally identifiable information. We
will, however, make your personally identifiable information available to others:
When we have your consent (you "opt in") to do so, in which case their use of
your information is subject to their own privacy policies;
When we have retained companies to work with or on behalf of
MusicBizAdvice.com.com to provide
Products, goods or services that you have requested;
When you use co-branded services - in which case you are giving us permission to pass any
personally identifiable information you provide in the context of our co-branding and
marketing relationship, back to our co-branding partner. Their use of your information is
subject to their own privacy policies;
When we are compelled to do so by a governmental agency, court or other entity (e.g., to
respond to subpoenas, court orders or legal process);
if we believe your actions violate any law, regulation, our Terms of Use or any of our
guidelines for promotions, Product offerings or any other features or functions of the
Site, or if you threaten the rights, property or safety of
MusicBizAdvice.com.com, its
suppliers, advertisers, other customers or users, or any other party;
as and when we, in our sole discretion, believe such disclosure to be necessary or
appropriate to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries, to protect our
business and assets, to defend our interests and/or to comply with our legal and
regulatory obligations; or
in the event of a bankruptcy, or a merger, acquisition, joint venture or other business
combination involving us.
It is also possible that third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or
private communications.
We do not sell or market your personally
identifiable information to unaffiliated organizations, and we do not buy,
sell, rent, or give your email address to anyone except when we are
compelled to do so by a governmental agency, court or other entity (e.g., to
respond to subpoenas, court orders or legal process), or in the event of a
merger or sale of MusicBizAdvice.com.
Some of the aggregate customer
data we collect may be shared with advertising companies in order to enhance
and improve the operation and relevance of the Site, but we do not give any
personally identifiable information to them as part of this relationship.
Use of their tracking technology is subject to their own privacy policies.
Communications from Us: If you provide us with your e-mail address, we
may occasionally send you an e-mail. You may "opt out" of receiving e-mails from
us by emailing us
or, if applicable, going to the MusicBizAdvice.com home page, clicking the "New Account" link, and (1) unregistering your account, or (2) changing your newsletter subscription choices via the
"Your Newsletters" link. We do not buy, sell, rent, or give your
email address to anyone except when we are compelled to do so by a
governmental agency, court or other entity (e.g., to respond to subpoenas,
court orders or legal process), or in the event of a merger or sale of
MusicBizAdvice.com.

collect and use your personally identifiable information only as necessary to deliver high
quality service, to administer our business and to let you know of goods and services that
are available from our family of companies;
protect the personally identifiable information the Site's users share with us,
maintaining strict standards of security and confidentiality. In this regard we even limit
access by our own employees to those individuals who are trained and advised in the proper

and confidentiality will be subject to our disciplinary processes;
not disclose your personally identifiable information to any external organization, except
as we have described in this Privacy Statement or unless we have previously obtained your

require any other organization that we retain or engage to provide services for us, to
conform to our privacy standards and to allow us to audit them for compliance;
exchange information about you and carry out credit approvals or checks necessary for your
purchases of Products from us, to prevent fraud and any other activities we may be
required to monitor and report under applicable laws and regulations; and

and accurate based on the information you provide us. Our Site provides a convenient and
easy to use mechanism to allow you to access and update the personally identifiable
