iN DEMAND respects your privacy and we want you to understand the ways in which we collect and use information about you when you visit our web sites. Please review the following provisions that describe our Privacy Policy concerning information collected on our web site. By using this web site, you are agreeing to the terms of our Privacy Policy.
Applicability
This Privacy Policy only applies to information collected on our web site and does not apply to information that we may collect by other means.
Changes to Privacy Policy
We may update or change the terms of our Privacy Policy from time to time. The revised Privacy Policy will be effective upon posting on this web site. To keep informed about the information we collect, how we use it and our disclosure practices, you should review our Privacy Policy on a regular basis.
Your California Privacy Rights
The following only applies to California residents.
If we collect your name, address or other personally identifiable
information (referred to herein as "personal information") from you, we
may occasionally make such personal information available to our
parent, subsidiary and affiliated companies, or to other third parties
who have products or services that we believe will be of interest to
you, for their direct marketing purposes. For more information on how your
personal information is collected, used and shared, please read the
remainder of this Privacy Policy.
If you do not want us to share your personal information with these companies for their direct marketing purposes, please click here.
Our Collection of Personal Information
We only collect personal information (i.e., your name, address or other personally identifiable information) that you voluntarily provide to us. In general, you can visit our web site without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. However, in order to access certain information, services or features that may be available on our web site, we may require you to provide certain personal information. For example, if you decide to register with our web site, or for any particular feature offered on our web site, you will be asked to submit your first and last name, a home or other physical address, an email address, a telephone number (optional) and date of birth. We will also collect certain personal information if you choose to participate in sweepstakes or other promotions, fill out surveys or send questions or comments to us via email.
We may also collect certain demographic information (such as gender, zip code), information about your interests, buying history and preferences, information about your cable or satellite provider, and other information that we think might help us make our web site more interesting and useful to you. In many cases, such information is optional. If we link any such information to any personal information, then such information will be treated as personal information under this Privacy Policy.
In addition, we may combine personal information that you provide to us on our web site with information about you from other sources, such as from our marketing partners or other third parties. Such additional information helps us better understand your interests and preferences and allows us to send communications to you that will be of more interest to you. Any such additional information about you that we combine with personal information that you provide to us on our web site will be treated as personal information under this Privacy Policy.
We may include features of our web site, that allow you to submit information about other people. If your friend has submitted your information in this way, in addition to performing the action that your friend has requested, you may hear from us or our designees about related promotions. If you do not wish to hear from us about such promotions, please contact us via the methods discussed in this privacy policy.
Collection of Personal Information by Third Parties
Certain third parties may join with us to offer web site activities or features, such as news, videos, and other content offerings, or promotions, such as contests, sweepstakes or special events. For joint web site activities, the co-sponsor or partner of the activity may request and collect your personal information. If you submit personal information in joint activities, the co-sponsor or partner may share personal information submitted for the activity with us and/or we may share such information with them. The co-sponsor or partner may also maintain separate privacy policies governing the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information. We and/or the third party partner or co-sponsor may also use the personal information collected in conjunction with such activities for the marketing of additional services, promotions or events. Depending on the activity, visitors will be able to either grant approval on the types of additional offers or services they want to receive before personal information is collected, or choose to deny use of their personal information for additional purposes.
Often third-party content will be served on a separate page hosted by that third party, or a separate browser or frame will be launched for that separate page. Regardless of form, you always should review the privacy policies and practices of those third parties on their pages. We, our parent, affiliates and subsidiaries are not responsible for the collection, use and disclosure practices of third parties.
Our Use of Personal Information
If you provide us with personal information, we may retain and use that information for the following purposes: to send you emails about programming-related information regarding the best new movies, concerts, sporting events and other content on iN DEMAND Networks and other related networks; to respond to your inquiries or requests; to improve our services, including our web site; for demographic analysis; to allow participation in public or interactive areas, including chat rooms, message boards or blogs; to allow participation in our various promotional programs, including sweepstakes and contests, that we may offer from time to time on our web site; to protect the security of our visitors, system and/or web site; for future marketing and/or promotional use about iN DEMAND Networks or our web site services and features; to survey visitors about various topics, including their television viewing, information or other entertainment preferences and how we can improve our programming and web site; and for any other purpose disclosed or presented to you at the time you are asked to submit your personal information.
If you wish to opt out of receiving promotional email communications from us at any time, simply follow the instructions for doing so in the emails that you receive from us, or simply forward your request to us at webmaster@indemand.com.
Our Sharing of Personal Information
We may disclose your personal information with other parties when you consent to the disclosure or you've been provided notice, including via this privacy policy, before moving forward in a web site activity, including providing access to certain content on our site; when it is required by law or by order of the court or governmental agency; as necessary to operate our web site or our web site services; to protect the safety of our visitors, employees or property; to investigate or help prevent unlawful activity or activity that threatens our network, web site or visitors; to provide or enhance our web site features or operations; as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy; and/or as necessary in connection with your participation in contests, sweepstakes or other promotions.

We may also disclose personal information to other third parties in conjunction with entering into an agreement for the sale of our stock or assets or if we are involved in bankruptcy proceedings.
Our Collection and Use of Non-Personal Information
We may collect general, non-personal, statistical information about our visitors, such as zip code or satellite or cable provider, and about the use of the Site, such as how many visitors visit a specific page on our web site, how long they stay on that page, and which product pictures or other hyperlinks, if any, they "click" on. We collect this information when you provide it affirmatively or through the use of "cookies" and other tracking technologies, which are discussed in greater detail below. We collect this information in order to determine which areas of our web site are most popular; to tailor our web site to your specific interests, requests or participation; to improve user experience for our visitors; and to deliver a more personalized web site service and experience by recognizing certain choices you have made on our web site so you do not need to re-enter these choices when you return to our web site (for examples, we may use cookies to recognize our registered users). We may also group this information into aggregate visitor data in order to describe the use of our web site and interest in our programs to our existing or potential business partners, sponsors, advertisers or other third parties, or in response to a government request. However, please be assured that this aggregate data will in no way personally identify you or any other visitors to our web site.
A cookie is a small text file that a web site transfers to an individual's hard drive for record-keeping purposes. Most browsers allow you to control cookies, including whether or not to accept them and how to remove them. You can set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you may choose to block cookies with your browser. However, please be aware that some features of our web site may not function properly or may be slower if you refuse cookies. You may occasionally get cookies from other third parties with links on our web site. We do not control these cookies. We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personal information you submit.
Tracking technologies may record information such as Internet domain and host names; Internet protocol (IP) addresses; browser software and operating system types; clickstream patterns; and dates and times that our web site is accessed. We do not link the information we record using tracking technologies to any personal information you submit.
Security
Wherever your personal information may be held by us or on our behalf, we intend to take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect the personal information that you share with us from unauthorized access or disclosure. When you transmit personal information from your PC to our servers, your information is protected by both a "firewall" (a combination of computer hardware and software that helps keep unauthorized visitors from accessing information within our computer network). Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information and privacy, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us online and cannot be responsible for the theft, destruction or inadvertent disclosure of your personal information.
If you choose to register on our web site, you may be asked to choose a password for your account, in which case your online account information shall be protected by your password. We recommend that you do not disclose your password to any other person. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account, and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password or account.

Use of Chat Rooms, Message Boards and Blogs
Please remember that chat rooms are public areas on our web site and any information posted in these areas can be viewed by other visitors or Internet users. Whenever you give out personal information on a "public" venue online (for example, in a blog, message board or chat room), that information can be collected and used by people you do not know. If you choose to voluntarily disclose information in any blog, message board, chat room or similar forum that may be available on our web site, the protections of this Privacy Policy will not cover such disclosure of information. We urge you to use caution when disclosing any personal information on these venues. We are not responsible and will not be liable for any opinions, content or other materials posted by users on any such venues, or for the use by other visitors or third parties of any information or content you may post to such venues.
If you use our chat rooms, message boards, blogs or other public venues, we will identify you by the screen name that you create. You agree that you will not disclose personal information relating to any other person in a public area of our web site without that person's express consent. For the Blogs and Message Boards User Agreement, click here; do not participate in any blog or message board without first reading the User Agreement.
Links to Other Sites
Our web site may include links to other web sites whose privacy policies we do not control. Therefore, once you leave our web site, use of any information you provide is governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the web site you are visiting. That policy may be different than ours. You should review the privacy policy of that web site for more information on the privacy practices of that web site.
Kids
We do not target this web site to children under the age of 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from such children. If upon notification by a parent or guardian, or discovery by other means, that a child under 13 has improperly registered on our web site, we will immediately cancel the child's membership and/or participation and delete the child's personal information from our records.
If we decide to request information from children under the age of 13, we will require verifiable parental consent before we collect any personal information from such children, except in circumstances allowed by law.
Parents
Parents should supervise their children's online activities and consider using parental control tools available from online services and software manufacturers that help provide a child-friendly online environment. These tools can also prevent children from disclosing online their name, address and other personal information without parental permission.
