iPitch.tv Privacy Policy

Effective August 12, 2015

This document sets for IPitch.TV.com LLC’s Privacy Policy and is subject to revision as set forth below.

INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE:

Registration

In order to use the IPitch.TV Web site (the “Service”), you must first complete the registration form(s) and create a user name and password.  During registration you are required to give contact information (such as name, address and email address). We use this information to operate the Service, to contact you about changes to the Service, and to enable communication between participants.  You may receive emails from IPitch.TV during the registration process and thereafter.  If you register as an industry executive (a “Company”), you may be contacted by phone to confirm your identity and status.

Orders

If you register as a creator of pitch materials (a “Creator”), you will be required to purchase a subscription to receive access to the Service.  During the subscription process, we request certain personally identifiable information from you on our order form, which will be provided to and maintained by PayPal.com, an independent entity. You must provide contact information (such as name, email, and billing address) and financial information (such as credit card number, expiration date). 

We use this information for billing purposes and to communicate confirmation of successful payment and any payment failures.  If we have trouble processing an order, or are made aware that your payment method will be expiring, we will use this information to identify and contact you.  IPitch.TV itself does not maintain your sensitive financial information other than expiration date.

Surveys

From time-to-time we may provide you the opportunity to participate in surveys on our site.  If you participate, we will request certain personally identifiable information from you. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this information.  The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code).  We may use a third party service provider to conduct these surveys; that company will be prohibited from using our users’ personally identifiable information for any other purpose. We will not share the personally identifiable information you provide through a survey with other third parties unless we give you prior notice and choice.

Tell-A-Friend

If we create, and you choose to use, a referral service to tell a friend about IPitch.TV, we will ask you for your friend’s name and email address.  We will automatically send your friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit the site but will not retain this information unless the friend specifically elects to use the Service. 

COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE SITE:

Special Offers and Updates

We will occasionally send you information on special offers and improvements to the Services.  Out of respect for your privacy, we present the option not to receive these types of communications.  Please see the “Choice and Opt-out.”

Newsletters

If you wish to subscribe to our newsletter(s), we will use your name and email address to send the newsletter to you.  Out of respect for your privacy, we provide you a way to unsubscribe.  Please see the “Choice and Opt-out” section.

Service-related Announcements

We will send you strictly service-related announcements on rare occasions when it is necessary to do so.  For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance, we might send you an email.  Generally, you may not opt-out of these communications, which are not promotional in nature, except by deleting your account and removing your access to the Service. 

Customer Service

Based upon the personally identifiable information you provide us, we will send you a welcoming email to verify your username and password.  We will also communicate with you in response to your inquiries, to provide the services you request, and to manage your account. We will communicate with you by email or telephone, as necessary. We may share your profile with other third parties needed to operate the Service.

Profile

We store information that we collect through cookies and log files, to create a “profile” of your preferences.  We tie your personally identifiable information, and your subscription history, to information in the profile, in order to operate the Service and to provide tailored promotions and IPitch.TV marketing offers, and to improve the content of the site for you. 

INFORMATION SHARING AND DISCLOSURE:

We share aggregated demographic information about our user base with our partners and advertisers.  This information does not identify individual users. We do not link aggregate user data with personally identifiable information.

Choice/Opt-out

Creators voluntarily elect to make certain personally identifiable information available to Companies when posting pitches.  Although not required to use the service, all users may voluntarily elect to make personally identifiable information available while using the messaging functionality.

If you no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional communications, you may opt-out of receiving them by following the instructions included in each newsletter or communication or by emailing us at admin@ipitch.tv with your request. 

Log Files

As is true of most Web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files.  This information includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.  We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.

We also retain a database of all activities on the Service, including communications between users of the Service. We do link this automatically collected data to personally identifiable information.

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site. We may link the information we store in cookies to personally identifiable information you submit while on our site. 

We may use both session ID cookies and/or persistent cookies.  We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file.

We set a persistent cookie to store your passwords, so you don’t have to enter it more than once.  Persistent cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site.   

If you reject cookies, you may still use our site. 

Some of our business partners (e.g., advertisers and ad networks) use cookies on our site.  We have no access to or control over these cookies, and disclaim all liability in connection therewith. See “Third Party Advertisers.”

This privacy statement covers the use of cookies by IPitch.TV only and does not cover the use of cookies by any Third Party Advertisers except with regard to the above disclaimer.

Third Party Advertisers

The ads appearing on this Web site are delivered to users by our advertising providers (“Third Party Advertisers”).   We reserve the right to share aggregate web site usage information about users with reputable Third Party Advertisers for the purpose of targeting our Internet banner advertisements on this site.  

Links to Other Sites

This Web site contains links to other sites that are not owned or controlled by IPitch.TV, LLC. Please be aware that we, IPitch.TV LLC is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites.  We encourage you to be aware when you leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information.

Security

The security of your personal information is important to us.  When you enter sensitive information (such as payment information) on our order forms, PayPal.com encrypts that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). 

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it.  No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however.  Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security and disclaim any liability due to breach.

If you have any questions about security on our Web site, you can send email us at admin@IPitch.TV

Business Transitions

In the event IPitch.TV LLC. goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, your personally identifiable information will likely be among the assets transferred.  You will be notified via email of any such change in ownership or control of your personal information.

Changes in this Privacy Statement

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement on the homepage and other places we deem appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. 

We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review it frequently.  If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here, by email, or by means of a notice on our home page.
