Privacy Policy
Quantum Khanextions and Chaka Khan Enterprises care about your
privacy. This privacy policy tells you what information we collect
at our web sites and how we use it. If you choose to visit any
of the Chaka Khan Enterprises Group web sites, your visit is
subject to this privacy policy, and you agree to the terms of
it.
WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT
There are many places at our sites where you can share your personal
information with us, and where you can communicate with others.
Registration
Some of our sites give you the opportunity to register with us,
and sometimes registration is required before certain site
features can be used. Our registration forms may request your
contact information (such as your name, email address, mailing
address, etc.), demographic information (such as your country,
gender, etc.), and profile data (such as your music preferences,
entertainment practices, etc). You may be assigned a site username
and/or password. For our internal purposes, we use this information
to communicate with you and provide the services you have requested,
and to provide a more personalized experience on our sites.
For example, your registration may allow you to use and post
to site message boards, create site profiles, etc. We use aggregate
demographic and profile information about our audience in order
to improve our service, for research purposes, marketing/promotional
purposes and/or for industry reporting purposes, among others.
By visiting our sites, you affirmatively consent to our collection
and use of your data.
Newsletters and Other Communications from Us
Our registered users and customers may receive newsletters, email
communications, or communications through other channels for,
among other purposes, the promotion and marketing of a product
or service from our family of sites as well as other companies
and business partners, and we may also offer other visitors
to our sites the opportunity to sign up to receive such information.
When there is a separate sign-up for newsletters, we ask for
contact information such as name and email address, and, sometimes,
demographic and profile information. By visiting our sites,
you affirmatively consent to our collection and use of your
data. We use this information in the same manner as we use
the contact information in the Registration process described
above. We may offer our users the choice whether to receive
mailings from others that we think will be of interest. Recipients
of our mailings can unsubscribe by following instructions that
may appear at the end of email communications. Note that in
order to keep our registered users informed about the operation
of our services, we may send emails and announcements that
are needed for the proper functioning and administration of
our sites and service.
Communications with Us
We have features where you can submit information to us (such
as when contacting us with a question or feedback). We may
retain your emails and other information you submit to us for
our internal purposes, and to help us to serve you better.
Communications with Friends
We may offer features where you can send information to others,
such as e-cards or "Tell A Friend" features. We will
use the contact information you enter for your friends to send
the email or e-card.
Interactive and Community Features
Our sites may offer interactive and community features, such
as message boards, chat, email accounts, short message service
(SMS), instant messaging, profiles, personal homepages, etc.
All information posted or sent through these features may be
publicly available, and you should be aware that when you voluntarily
disclose personal information (e.g., user name, email address,
phone number) through these features, that information can
be collected and used by others and may result in unsolicited
communications from other people. By accessing these features
and disclosing personal information, you affirmatively consent
to the distribution of your personal information as described
above. Users' posts may be publicly and/or internally associated
with their profiles/screen-names. Users are solely responsible
for the content of messages they post or send on public forums.
Contests, Sweepstakes and Surveys
We may also have contests, sweepstakes and surveys at our sites.
When you enter or participate in them, we request contact information
from you (such as your full name, email address, mailing address,
and telephone number) and may also request demographic or profile
information. We will use the information you provide for the
purpose of conducting the promotion (for example, to contact
you if you have won). We may also use the information to send
you newsletters and other information we think may be of interest.
Recipients of our mailings can unsubscribe by following instructions
that may appear at the end of the email communication. Any
personal information we collect may be associated with registration
information. We may share aggregate information with others.
We may sometimes partner with sponsors in offering contests,
sweepstakes or surveys, and may share (provide and receive)
information with them. By entering or participating in such
contests, sweepstakes, and surveys, you affirmatively consent
to our collection and use of your data.
AUTOMATIC DATA COLLECTION
Our web sites have features that automatically collect information
from users to assist us in creating sites that honor our users'
preferences and serve their interests and needs.
Some of our sites use cookies, which are small data files containing
information about the user that are stored on the user's hard
drive. Some cookies are used to make login to our sites easier
(such as by remembering usernames and passwords). If users reject
cookies, they may be limited in using some areas of our sites.
Cookies can also enable us to track users' movements and target
their interests to enhance their experience at our sites. We
may also collect clickstream data and assign unique identifiers
to our users for the same purposes. Information obtained with
these technologies may be associated with your personal information.
We or a third-party advertisement server may also use cookies
in connection with targeting advertisements or promotions to
users. Our advertisers and other third parties whose products
or services are promoted on our sites may also use cookies or
other technology, and we advise you to check their privacy policies
for information about their privacy practices.
We may also gather information such as the date, time, browser
type, navigation history, and IP address of all visitors to our
site(s). We use this information for our internal security audit
log, trend analysis, and system administration, and to gather
broad demographic information about our user base. We may associate
this information with your personal information. By visiting
our sites, you affirmatively consent to our collection, use,
and distribution of your data.
WITH WHOM YOUR INFORMATION IS SHARED
Information provided at Artist sites that we host or manage may
be shared with that Artist, including their management, representatives,
and any new label they may join. As with other third parties,
we are not responsible for how the Artists handle the data
once they receive it. When we have co-branded or sponsored
services, when we host a site, or when we join with other parties
to provide specific services, we may share (provide and receive)
your personal information with them. By visiting these sites,
you affirmatively consent to our collection, use and distribution
of your data.
We may share your information with other third parties with
whom we have business relationships and, in some cases, we cannot
control or know their privacy practices. By visiting our sites,
you affirmatively consent to our collection, use, and distribution
of your data.
Other than as set forth in this policy, we do not share your
personally identifiable information with other companies, apart
from those acting as our agents in providing our service to you,
and which agree to use it only for that purpose and to keep the
information secure and confidential. Also, please be aware that
our parent company, Chaka Khan Enterprises, including all its
business units, subsidiaries, affiliates and sites, Chaka Khan
Enterprises’ subsidiary and affiliated companies and sites,
entities into which our companies may be merged, or entities
to which any of our assets, products, sites or operations may
be transferred, may obtain from us and be able to use your personal
information. We will also disclose information we maintain when
required to do so by law, for example, in response to a court
order or a subpoena or other legal obligation, in response to
a law enforcement agency's request, or in special cases when
we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is
necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against
someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either
intentionally or unintentionally) our rights or property. You
should also be aware that courts of equity, such as U.S. Bankruptcy
Courts, may have the authority under certain circumstances to
permit your information to be shared or transferred to third
parties without your permission.
We may share (provide and receive) aggregate information, which
is not personally identifiable, with others. This information
may include demographic data such as the gender and/or geographic
location of groups of users, but it will not include personal
information (such as your name or email address). We use aggregate
demographic information about our audience in order to improve
our service, for research purposes, marketing/promotional purposes
and/or for industry reporting purposes, among others.
CHOICE
By accepting this privacy policy, you expressly choose to receive
certain communications from us and third parties, and you expressly
agree to the privacy practices described herein. Our sites
may also provide you with additional specific opportunities
to select communications you wish to receive. You may change
your privacy preferences, e.g. choose to cease receiving certain
communications, by informing us of your new preferences. We
will be able to honor your new preferences most quickly if
you inform us of them by following the appropriate instructions
in any communication you receive from us. Please be aware that
messages you receive from us through SMS and instant messaging
systems (and other systems apart from email) may not include
an option to cease receiving communications; to change your
privacy preferences with respect to those communications, please
go to the profile page at the site where you provided your
personal information or direct your instructions to the Contact
identified at the end of this policy.
ACCESS
If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such
as zip code), we endeavor to provide a way to correct or update
that user's personal data. Please feel free to contact us if
you have any questions regarding making changes to your data.
DATA COLLECTION FROM CHILDREN
We strive to comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection
Act (COPPA). We do not knowingly collect personal information
from U.S. children under 13 without appropriate parental notice
and consent. Sites that are directed to children where personal
information is collected should have a Children's Privacy Policy
setting forth our COPPA-compliant practices. At many sites,
we actively screen-out children from data collection and/or
use of interactive or community features. We are committed
to protecting children's privacy.
NOTICE: Visit www.ftc.gov/kidzprivacy for information
from the Federal Trade Commission about protecting children's
privacy online
SECURITY
Security for all personally identifiable information is extremely
important to us. We store your personal information securely,
and use special procedures designed to protect the information
we collect from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure,
alteration or destruction.
MERCHANT/E-COMMERCE AREAS
We do not generally make e-commerce offerings at our sites. Some
of our sites do have merchant/e-commerce areas, where users
can purchase merchandise. Chaka Khan Enterprises does not run
those areas of our sites. Personal information collected at
those areas is not shared with Chaka Khan Enterprises without
the purchasers' consent. At each of those areas, we endeavor
to provide a privacy policy link where users can review the
privacy policies that apply to data collection and use at those
areas, and we urge our users to review them.
LINKS
We may provide links to non-Chaka Khan Enterprises sites. We
are not responsible for those other sites, their privacy policies
or how they treat information about their users, and we advise
you to check their privacy policies.
PRIVACY POLICY CHANGES
We reserve the right to modify, alter or otherwise update this
Privacy Policy at any time, so we encourage you to review this
policy from time to time. Changes to this privacy policy are
effective at the time they are posted and your continued use
of our sites after posting will constitute acceptance of, and
agreement to be bound by, those changes.
