By using the Website, you are accepting the practices set out in this Privacy Policy and the applicable Terms of Use.

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of this Privacy Policy and in some cases we may provide you with additional notice (such as sending you a notification). We encourage you to review the Privacy Policy whenever you access the Services to stay informed about our information practices and the ways you can help protect your privacy. Unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy, terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Use.

User Information Non-Personally Identifiable Information

The Personal Information You May Provide To Us

When you use our Services or register an account, we collect a wide variety of information about you, including but not limited to, the answers you provide to our prompts and questions and the storyline you submit to us as content for a Song (the “Story”). Some of the information that you provide to us is personally identifiable information —information about you that can be used to contact or identify you, and information on your use or potential use of the Services and related services (the “Personal Information”). Personal Information that we might collect may include things like your name, mobile phone number, other phone numbers, email address, home address, credit card billing information and other submissions provided by you. Personal Information may also include other information you supply to us concerning your preferences and interests expressed in the course of using the Services. Unless otherwise stated herein or with your permission, Personal Information will be confidential, including the Story.

Purchase Information

To process purchases, we may require Personal Information such as your name, address, phone number, email address and credit card information. Such information is used primarily to process your order for a Song or Merchandise. Credit card transactions are processed through industry standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and/or strong encryption (3DES) by a third party, which only uses your information for that purpose.

E-mails and Telephone Calls

We require an e-mail address from you when you register an account or use the Services. We use your e-mail for both transactional (e.g., order confirmation, refund and renewal processing, and follow-up questions) and promotional (e.g., newsletters, new product offerings, special discounts, event notifications, special third-party offers) purposes. E-mail messages we send you may contain code that enables our database to track your usage of the e-mails, including whether the e-mail was opened and what links (if any) were clicked. If you would rather not receive promotional e-mails from us, please see the section below labeled “Your Choices”. We may also contact you by telephone or text message (including to any wireless number you may provide to us) solely in connection with the Services. If you would rather not receive telephone calls or text messages from us, you may change or delete your number from your account preferences page(s), or ask to be removed from our contact list if you receive a call or text message from us. We fully comply with the requirements of GDPR and the U.S. CAN-SPAM Act.
