YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS WEB SITE.

Unless we provide you with specific notice, no changes to our Privacy Policy will apply retroactively.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT

1. Personal Information. Your provision of your Personal Information to us is completely voluntary; it is not a statutory or contractual requirement. “Personal information” is information that is uniquely identifiable to you, such as your name, address, email address, phone number, credit card number and other personal information that is not otherwise publicly available. Using certain features of our website may require that you provide us with your personal information. For example our website may include the following features:

o Contests/Sweepstakes

o Surveys

o Newsletter Sign-Up

o Mobile Alert Sign-Up (SMS)

o Contact Us (email)

o Public forums (e.g. message boards)

To use these features, we may require you to provide your email address, mobile number, name and/or address and certain demographic information (e.g. gender, age, income level, etc.). When you give us personal information to use the features above, you expressly consent to our collection, storage, use and disclosure of this information as described in this Privacy Policy.

We may use your personal information to communicate with you about:

o Your use of any of the features above;

o New content on our website;

o New contests;

o Prize information;

o News that we think may interest you about us; and

o Responses to your questions/comments to us.

We may use your demographic information for in-house statistics, advertising, and marketing target information.

The legal basis for our processing of your Personal Information is that it is necessary for the performance and fulfilment of the contract between us and to provide you with our services. We will also process, transfer, disclose and preserve Personal Information when we have a good faith belief that doing so is necessary.

You can always opt-out of receiving future communications from us; see the Choice/Opt-out section below.

2. Other Information. Even if you don’t use any of the features above, when you visit our website, we may collect certain information about you.

A. From your Browser. For example, our servers keep an activity log that tracks all visitors to the website. The information in the activity log does not identify you individually. The information collected may include among other data: your IP address, your registered domain or home server, time of access, date of access, web page(s) visited, number of clicks, software crash reports, type of browser used, session identification number, search terms, search results, access times and referring website’s address. We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our website. Your IP address is also used to gather broad demographic information, such as country of origin and geographic location. We use such data in the aggregate to run internal analyses to improve upon your experience on our website.

B. Cookies. “Cookies” are small text files that are stored on your computer and record your preferences when you visit certain online pages. Our website uses cookies to track your use of the site and its features and links. We may also use cookies to monitor traffic, improve our website and make it easier to use or more relevant to you. If you provide us with personal information, cookies may be linked to that information.

You may occasionally get cookies from third parties with links (e.g. merchandise retailers and ticket vendors) on our website. We do not control these cookies, and these cookies are not subject to our Privacy Policy. An example of a partner of ours that uses cookies on our side is Ad Swerve. To review their terms, please visit: https://www.adswerve.com/privacy-policy/.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but, if you prefer, you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies. For more information on cookies and how to disable them, you can consult the information provided by the Interactive Advertising Bureau at www.allaboutcookies.org.

C. Tracking Tags (also known as “web beacons,” “action tags” or “single-pixel gifs”). Our website may also use tracking tags. Tracking tags are invisible graphics embedded in the pages of our website that are programmed to collect non-personal information about your use of our website. Like cookies, tracking tags provide overall usage patterns for our website that we use for analysis and to provide personalized services and advertising content.

D. We comply with the Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising set forth by the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA). You can opt-out of targeted advertising from certain providers at www.aboutads.info/consumers.

INFORMATION COLLECTED BY/SHARED WITH THIRD PARTIES.

Other than as provided in this Privacy Policy, we do not share your personal information with third parties.

1. Advertising. We partner with advertising companies who may use information from cookies and the tracking tags they place on our website to provide you with targeted advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you based on your use of our website and to track the effectiveness of ads served to you. These advertising company partners may anonymously track your Internet usage across other websites in their networks beyond our website. Any information that these advertising companies collect via cookies and tracking tags is generally not personally identifiable (unless, for example, you provide personal information to them through an ad or email message). If you wish at any time to opt-out of the collection of information by these advertising companies, please contact us at info@blacktheatrecoalition.org. If you would like more information about the use of cookies and tracking tags and to know your choices about not having this information used by these companies, see the Network Advertising Initiatives consumer Web site at http://www.networkadvertising.org/consumer/.

2. Third Parties Doing Work for Us. We may employ other companies or individuals to perform functions on our behalf, such as sending postal mail, email, and text messages, conducting sweepstakes/contests, prize fulfillment and promotional activities, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments and providing customer service. These outside suppliers, agents and vendors have access to your personal information only as needed to perform their functions.

3. Third Parties with Links from Our Website. From our website, you may be able to click on links to third party sites to buy tickets and merchandise and for other purposes. These third party sites may collect information, including personal information. We are not responsible for, nor do we have access to the information they collect. The collection of this information is governed by the privacy policies on the applicable third party sites.

4. Social Networking Services. Our website may integrate with social networking services. You understand that we do not control such services and are not liable for the manner in which they operate. While we may provide you with the ability to use such services in connection with our website, we are doing so merely as an accommodation and, like you, are relying upon those third party services to operate properly and fairly.

5. When necessary. We may also release personal information when we believe, in good faith, that such release is reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of ourselves, our clients, our users, or others. Of course, we may disclose any personal information about you to law enforcement, other government officials, or other third parties, as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate, in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringement, or other activity that is illegal or may expose us to legal liability.
