Information Collection and Use
Companies are the sole owners of the information
collected on their sites. We will not sell,
share, or rent this information to others in
ways different from what is disclosed in this
statement. Companies collect information from
our users at several different points on our
websites.
Registrations
Users are provided with the option of using registration
forms on our sites, where users can provide
their contact information (such as name and
email address), so we can contact the user
about the services on our sites and/or provide
news and information for which they have expressed
interest. We do not share, trade, sell or disclose
this contact information to others.
Orders
We request information from the user on our order
forms. Here a user must provide contact information
(like name and shipping address) and financial
information (like credit card number, expiration
date). This information is used for billing
purposes and to fill customers' orders. If
we have trouble processing an order, this contact
information is used to get in touch with the
user.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's
hard drive containing information about the
user. The Companies do not use cookies.
Advertisers, partners and sponsors may use their
own cookies. We do not control use of these cookies
and expressly disclaim responsibility for information
collected through them.
Sharing
We may share aggregated demographic information
with our partners, sponsors and advertisers.
This is not linked to any personal information
that can identify any individual person.
If we partner with another party to provide
specific services, we will share names, or other
contact information that is necessary for the
third party to provide these services to the
user when the user signs up for them. We expressly
disclaim responsibility for information users
provide once it has been transmitted to the third
party on behalf of the user to provide the services
or products the user has requested.
Links
Companies' websites contain links to other sites.
Please be aware that Companies are not responsible
for the privacy practices of such other sites.
We encourage our users to be aware when they
leave our site and to read the privacy statements
of each and every website that collects personally
identifiable information. This privacy statement
applies solely to information collected by
our websites.
Third-Party Advertisers
We use third-party advertising companies to serve
ads when you visit our websites. These companies
may use information (not including your name,
address, email address or telephone number)
about your visits to this and other web sites
in order to provide advertisements about goods
and services of interest to you. If you would
like more information about this practice and
to know your choices about not having this
information used by these companies, please

Newsletters, Bulletins, Special Offers, Etc.
If a user wishes to receive our newsletters,
bulletins or special offers, we ask for contact
information such as name and email address.
We do not share, sell, trade or disclose that
information to anyone, except if required in
special cases (see Special Cases below). Out
of respect for the privacy of our users we
present the option to not receive these types
of communications. Users may unsubscribe or
request to be removed from our mailing lists
at any time by using online forms or listserv
commands we have created for that purpose or
by emailing to us at news@hollywooddigest.com.
Online Voting, Surveys, Contests
From time-to-time our sites may request information
from users via online voting polls, surveys
or contests. Participation in these voting
polls, surveys or contests is completely voluntary
and the user therefore has a choice whether
or not to disclose this information. We expressly
disclaim responsibility for information users
provide to third parties, such as advertisers,
partners, sponsors, or non-Companies websites,
where services such as these are provided and
information requested from the user.
Security
Our websites take every precaution to protect
our users' information. When users submit sensitive
information via the websites, we try our best
to protect that information both online and
off-line.
Correction/Updating Personal Information
If a user's personally identifiable information
changes (such as your zip code), or if a user
no longer desires our service, we will endeavor
to provide a way to correct, update or remove
that user's personal data provided to us. This
can usually be done by phone, fax, mail or
email.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we
will post those changes here so our users are
always aware of what information we collect,
how we use it, and under what circumstances,
if any, we disclose it. If at any point we
decide to use personally identifiable information
in a manner different from that stated at the
time it was collected, we will notify users
by way of an email. Users will have a choice
as to whether or not we use their information
in this different manner. We will use information
in accordance with the privacy policy under
which the information was collected.
Special Cases

information about visitors or members in ways
unrelated to the ones described above without
also providing you an opportunity to opt out
or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.
However, the Companies may disclose personal
information about visitors or members, or information
regarding your use of the services or websites
provided by Companies, for any reason if, in
our sole discretion, we believe that it is
reasonable to do so, including to satisfy laws,
regulations, or governmental or legal requests
for such information; to disclose information
that is necessary to identify, contact, or
bring legal action against someone who may
be violating acceptable use policies or other
user policies; to operate our services properly;
or to protect Companies and their visitors,
members or users.

disclose in or on our directories, bulletin
boards, listserv forums, or other public areas
of our websites becomes public information.
You should exercise caution when deciding to
