PRIVACY POLICY - VIRALSTREET WEBSITE
Viralstreet is committed to protecting your privacy online. We use the information we collect about you to exploit, and licence others to exploit the audiovisual clips supplied by you (we will call the clips you send in “Virals” in this Privacy Policy) to our Website and to operate and promote our Website.
At Viralstreet, we appreciate that you do not want the personal information that you provide to us distributed indiscriminately and in this Privacy Policy we explain how we collect personal information, what we do with it and what controls and rights you have.
What information do we collect?
When you register on our registration page or at other times, we will ask you to submit personal information such as your name, e-mail address, postal address and telephone number. We will also ask you to provide information relating to the Virals that you submit to our website, which may include personal details relating either to yourself or others, for example people who may be featured in the Virals you provide.
You are under no obligation to provide such information. However, if you cannot provide or if you choose to withhold this sort of information, or if it is false, incomplete or inaccurate, we may not be able to exploit your Virals or should the need arise, make payment to you or award you prizes for your Virals.
How is the information used?
Viral Street will use the information you provide to us to:
- identify you as the author of the Virals that you supply to our website;
- licence and exploit your Virals, including the clearing of rights and administering of any financial transactions;
- run votes and competitions on our website;
- advertise and promote our website and your Virals in any media;
- send you information about our Website and your Virals and/or other information we think you may find useful, including information about new opportunities and services offered by Viralstreet or our business partners, for example the companies and organisations who may be interested in using your Virals.
If you have consented to it (and we will offer you the chance to consent when we collect your personal information) we may occasionally also contact you with information about other, third party products and services we feel may be of interest to you. You can opt out of these marketing communications at any time by emailing or writing to us.
With whom is your personal information shared?
The aim of Viralstreet is to enter into licensing arrangements with companies and organisations whereby they exploit your Virals in return for payment or other prizes or benefits. Your personal information will be shared with these organisations for the purpose of promoting your Virals to them, and, if they decide to use your Virals, for the purpose of checking and confirming the clearance of rights, complying with content rules and regulations, making any appropriate payment to you and generally administering the exploitation of your Virals.
Viralstreet may disclose aggregate statistics about our website visitors, operations and finances in order to describe our website and services to prospective shareholders, investors, partners, advertisers and other reputable third parties and for other lawful purposes, but these statistics will include no personally identifying information.
Viralstreet may disclose personal information if required to do so by law or if it believes that such action is necessary to protect and defend the rights, property or personal safety of Viralstreet, the site, its visitors and any companies or other organisations who use Virals offered to them through the Viralstreet website.
Our website may contain links to other sites from time-to-time. Viralstreet is not responsible for the privacy policies or the content of such sites and you should review them carefully before parting with any personal and especially financial information.
Use of cookies
Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to your hard drive to store and sometimes track information about you. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer, you can change your browser to prevent that. However, you may not be able to take full advantage of a website if you do so. Cookies are specific to the server that created them and cannot be accessed by other servers, which means they cannot be used to track your movements around the web. Although they do identify a user's computer, cookies do not personally identify users and passwords and credit card information are not stored in cookies.
We may use cookies to:
- identify who you are and to access your information;
- estimate our audience size and patterns;
- calculate how often visitors see Virals; and
- track preferences and to improve and update our website.
Security
Viralstreet places great importance on the security of all personally identifiable information associated with our users. We have security measures in place to attempt to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of personal information under our control. For example, our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary and only authorised personnel have access to personal information. While we cannot ensure or guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration of personal information will not occur, we use our best efforts to prevent this.
Where is the information stored?
Information which you submit to our website is sent to a computer located in the Liechtenstein. However it may also be transferred by us to companies and organisations who may be situated outside the European Economic Area if those persons wish to use your Virals. By uploading your Viral to the website you consent to your personal information being sent to such persons. We will take steps to require non-EEA organisations to handle your personal information to at least an equivalent level of protection as afforded by the United Kingdom Data Protection Act 1998.
Keeping our records accurate
We aim to keep our information about you as accurate as possible, but we depend on you to update your personal information whenever necessary. This is extremely important where any Virals of yours are being or have been exploited by any company or organisation via our website. Without up to date personal information about you, we or the end user may not be able to make payment to you or request further content or rights clearances.
You can review, change or delete the details you have supplied to us at any time by revisiting the website. If you have another query relating to your information, please contact us as set out below.
Your acceptance of these terms and conditions
By using the website, you consent to the collection and use of your personal information by Viralstreet as set out in this Privacy Policy. If we change our Privacy Policy in any way, we will post these changes on this page.
