YOU AGREE THAT IN THE EVENT YOU INCUR ANY DAMAGES, LOSSES OR INJURIES THAT ARISE OUT OF ORION'S ACTS OR OMISSIONS, THE DAMAGES, IF ANY, CAUSED TO YOU ARE NOT IRREPARABLE OR SUFFICIENT TO ENTITLE YOU TO AN INJUNCTION PREVENTING ANY EXPLOITATION OF THE SITE OR ANY ORION WEB SITE, PROPERTY, PRODUCTION, FILM, PRODUCT, SERVICE, OR OTHER MATERIALS OWNED OR CONTROLLED BY THE ORION PARTIES, AND YOU WILL HAVE NO RIGHTS TO ENJOIN OR RESTRAIN THE DEVELOPMENT, PRODUCTION, DISTRIBUTION, ADVERTISING, EXHIBITION OR EXPLOITATION OF THE SITE OR ANY ORION WEB SITE, PROPERTY, PRODUCT, SERVICE, OR OTHER MATERIALS OWNED OR CONTROLLED BY THE ORION PARTIES.BY ACCESSING THIS SITE, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU MAY BE WAIVING RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS THAT ARE AT THIS TIME UNKNOWN OR UNSUSPECTED, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH WAIVER, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND, AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE, THE BENEFITS OF SECTION 1542 OF THE CIVIL CODE OF CALIFORNIA, AND ANY SIMILAR LAW OF ANY STATE OR TERRITORY, WHICH PROVIDES AS FOLLOWS: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."
As part of these Terms of Use, you and Orion each agree as follows (the “Arbitration Agreement”):
Any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to your use of the Site (including without limitation the arbitrability of any claim or controversy) shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act. The parties waive their rights to file suit in court to assert any allegation, claim, or cause of action against the other, or to have a jury trial on any allegation, claim, or cause of action, and any right to do so (including without limitation the right to a jury trial) is hereby waived. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and Orion retain the right to seek remedies in small claims court for disputes or claims within that court’s jurisdiction, and Orion retains the right to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for provisional or conservatory relief, including without limitation pre-arbitral attachments or injunctions, and to adjudicate disputes relating to the infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property.
Any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to your use of the Site or this Arbitration Agreement shall be governed by the procedural and substantive laws of the State of California, without reference to choice-of-law rules. The arbitration will be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures then in effect. The arbitration shall be presided over by a single arbitrator in Los Angeles County, California. In the event this venue will cause undue hardship to you, then, the discretion of the arbitrator, the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted, with the parties participating through telephonic or video conference hearings, or at a location reasonably convenient to the parties in the state in which you reside at the time the arbitration is commenced, provided that it is within the Continental U.S. To the extent that any of the foregoing provisions are inconsistent with JAMS applicable standards then in effect, such JAMS rules shall apply.
Claims subject to this Arbitration Agreement may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis and you will not be able to participate in an arbitration as a representative or member of any class of claimants pertaining to that claim.
All aspects of the arbitration and award shall be confidential, except to the extent disclosure is necessary in connection with an application to a court for a preliminary or permanent injunction, a petition to confirm or vacate an award, to obtain legal or other professional advice necessary for the protection of a party’s rights, or as required by law or judicial decision.
Subject to you demonstrating that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Orion will pay as much of the fees charged to you by JAMS as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost prohibitive to you.
The arbitrator will not have authority to award punitive or exemplary damages, and the parties waive any right to recover such damages. As part of the award, the prevailing party shall be awarded its costs, including without limitation arbitration fees, expert witness fees, if any, and reasonable attorney’s fees.
If any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, for any reason, that specific portion shall be severed from the rest, but such severance shall not affect the enforceability of the remainder of this agreement. No waiver of any provision of this Arbitration Agreement will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving the provision, and any such waiver shall not waive or affect any other provision of this agreement.
THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS LIMIT CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THE JAMS RULES AND THESE DISPUTE RESOLUTION TERMS, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING HEREIN WILL RESTRAIN A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT’S RIGHT, IF ANY, TO SEEK PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AS PERMITTED BY LAW. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.
Orion reserves the right, without notice or liability and at its sole discretion, to suspend or terminate these Terms and/or your ability to access or use the Site, and to block or prevent future access to and use of the Site for any reason, including, without limitation, your breach of these Terms or other conduct by you that Orion considers inappropriate. Orion reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Site with or without notice. You agree that no Orion Party shall be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuation of the Site. Upon termination of your access to the Site, or upon demand by Orion, you must destroy all Materials and all related documentation including without limitation immediately discontinuing the use of any Widgets or links to the Site. Any provisions of these Terms, which, by their terms, ought to survive, shall survive any termination of these Terms.
You understand and agree that Orion will determine your compliance with these Terms in its sole discretion. Any violation of these Terms may be referred to law enforcement authorities.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. These Terms are not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with the prior written consent of a duly authorized Orion employee. No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. Any heading, caption or paragraph title contained in these Terms is inserted only as a matter of convenience and in no way defines or explains any paragraph or provision hereof. You agree that these Terms will not be construed against Orion by virtue of having drafted these Terms.
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion and at any time, to change or add to the terms of these Terms and we will notify you of material changes by posting the changed or modified Terms on our Site ("Updated Terms"). We may also provide notice to you in other ways in our discretion, such as through contact information you have provided. Your use of the Site after we have posted the Updated Terms (or engaging in such other conduct as we may reasonably specify) constitutes your agreement and consent to the Updated Terms. Therefore, you should review these Terms before using the Site. The Updated Terms will be effective as of the time of posting, or such later date as may be specified in the Updated Terms, and will apply to your use of the Site from that point forward.
If you have any comments or questions regarding these Terms, or wish to report any violation of these Terms, please contact us at comments@Orion-Television.com.
Effective: August 4, 2017
This Privacy Policy applies to www.couplescourttv.com, and all other web sites, applications, online services and other interactive features owned or controlled by Orion TV Productions, Inc. or one of its subsidiary or affiliated companies (collectively, "Orion", “we”, “us” or “our”) that posts a link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the "Site"). This Privacy Policy describes our information and privacy practices with regard to the Site, such as the types of information we may gather from you and other visitors to the Site. Except if specifically stated otherwise, this Privacy Policy applies only to information collected on the Site and does not apply to information collected offline or otherwise outside of the Site.
Please take a moment to review this Privacy Policy. Please also review the Terms of Use, which governs your use of the Site. Please note that certain features or services discussed in this Privacy Policy may not be offered on the Site at any particular time.
The Site is a general audience web site. The Site does not knowingly collect Personal Information from children younger than the age of thirteen (13), and Orion will delete any information later determined to be collected from a user younger than age thirteen (13).
TABLE OF CONTENTS
WE FULLY DESCRIBE OUR PRIVACY PRACTICES BELOW IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. THIS SUMMARY PROVIDES AN OVERVIEW OF SOME IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING OUR USE AND SHARING OF INFORMATION AND THIRD PARTIES WHO MAY SERVE ADVERTISEMENTS AND WHO OTHERWISE MAY SET COOKIES OR SIMILAR TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES WHEN YOU INTERACT WITH THE SITE. PLEASE REVIEW OUR FULL PRIVACY POLICY BEFORE USING OUR SITE.
We may collect Personal Information from you, which we primarily use in connection with your relationship with Orion, your use of the Site, and for sending you information from us or on behalf of certain third parties. Please review the “INFORMATION WE MAY COLLECT ON THE SITE” and “HOW WE MAY USE THE INFORMATION COLLECTED” sections of this Privacy Policy for a full description of the information we collect, including without limitation Personal Information, and how we use that information. Remember that if you participate in community forums and similar features on the Site, your information may be public. Note that we do not share your Personal Information with third parties for marketing purposes without your consent; however, we may share your Personal Information under certain limited circumstances. For more details, please review the section below entitled “HOW AND WHEN WE DISCLOSE INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES.”
In addition, Orion works with network advertisers, ad agencies, analytics providers and other vendors, to provide us with information regarding traffic on the Site, including without limitation the pages viewed and the actions users take when visiting the Site; to serve third-party advertisements on the Site and to serve our advertisements on other web sites, within mobile Apps, and elsewhere online; and to provide us with information regarding the use of the Site and the effectiveness of our advertisements. These third parties may set and access their own tracking devices (including without limitation cookies and web beacons) and they may otherwise collect or have access to information about you and your visits to this or other web sites, and may use that information to serve you targeted ads on this and other web sites. Please review “THIRD-PARTY ADVERTISING COMPANIES AND ANALYTICS SERVICES” for additional information. Some of these companies are members of the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI") or the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. You may want to visit www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp for NAI and http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ for DAA, both of which provides information regarding targeted advertising and offers an "opt out" by participating companies.
Information you provide to the Site
Orion may ask you to provide "Personal Information" (which is information that identifies you as a specific individual, such as your name or e-mail address) and other information about you, such as demographic information (ZIP code, gender or age, for example) and information about your interests and preferences. If we combine this type of information with Personal Information, then we will treat the combined information as Personal Information under this Privacy Policy. We may also de-identify Personal Information, turning it into non-Personal Information. This is sometimes accomplished using a mathematical process (commonly known as a hash function) to convert information into a code. The code does not identify you directly, but it may be used to connect your activity and interests.
Please note that information submitted to the Site via a “Contact Us”, “Help” or other similar function may not receive a response. We will not use the information provided via these functions to contact you for marketing purposes unrelated to your request unless you agree otherwise.
Community Forums, User Content, and Posting Content to Third-Party Sites
The Site may provide you the opportunity to participate and post content publicly in forums, through interactive features and through other communication functionality ("Community Forums"). You may choose, through such features or otherwise, to submit or post photographs, videos, questions, comments, suggestions or other content, (collectively, "User Content"). Please note that certain information, such as your name and state of residence, may be publicly displayed on the Site along with your User Content. Your use of Community Forums is subject to our “User Content Policy” and other provisions of the Terms of Use.
Note that anything you post to a Community Forum is public -- others will have access to your User Content and may use it or share it with third parties. If you choose to voluntarily disclose Personal Information, that information will be considered public information and the protections of this Privacy Policy will not apply. If you submit User Content, it may be published online or offline (including without limitation on the Site, on-air, in a DVD, or any other format currently existing or later developed). In addition, we may use your User Content and any excerpt from your User Content in connection with our advertising, marketing, publicity and promotional activities. Please also see the "User Content" section of our Terms of Use, which governs any content you submit through or to the Site.
The Site may permit interactions between the Site and a third-party web site, such as enabling you to “like” a product on our Site or “share” content to other web sites. If you choose to “like” or “share” content through the Site or to otherwise post information from or via the Site to a third-party web site, feature or application, that information may be publicly displayed and the third-party web site may have access to information about you and your use of our Site.
Send to a Friend Features
If you send a friend a communication from the Site, the information you provide (names, e-mail addresses, etc.) is used on a one-time basis to facilitate the communication and is not used for any other marketing purpose, unless we obtain consent from that person.
Information Third Parties Provide About You and Social Media Interactions
We may receive information about you from third parties. For example, if you are on another web site and you opt-in to receive information from Orion, that web site will forward your contact and other information to us so that we may contact you as requested. We also may supplement the information we collect with outside records from third parties in order to provide you with information, services or goods you have requested, to tailor our content to you and to offer you opportunities to purchase products or services that we believe may be of interest to you, or to enhance our content and services.
Functionality on the Site may permit interactions between the Site and a third-party web site or service, such as enabling you to “like” or “share” content to other web sites or services. If you choose to share content from the Site or to otherwise post information from or via the Site to a third-party web site, feature or application, that information may be public and the third party may have access to information about you and your use of our Site. You may also choose to participate in a third-party application or feature (such as posting to your page on a third-party service or otherwise linking the Site with another web site or interactive service) or on a third-party web site or service (such as one of our Facebook applications or a similar application or feature on a third-party web site or service) through which you post content or allow us to collect (or the third party to share) information about you, including without limitation Personal Information. The information we collect is subject to this Privacy Policy. The information collected and stored by the third party remains subject to the third party’s privacy practices, including without limitation whether the third party continues to share information with us, the types of information shared, and your choices with regard to what is visible to others on that third-party web site and service. The third party may allow you to remove the application or feature, in which case we will no longer collect information about you through the application or feature, but we may retain the information previously collected. In addition, we may receive information about you if other users of a third-party web site give us access to their profiles and you are one of their “connections” or information about you is otherwise accessible through your “connections” web page, profile page, or similar page on a social networking or other third-party web site or interactive service.
We may combine the information we receive from third parties with information we collect through the Site. In those cases, we will apply this Privacy Policy to the combined information.
Information We Collect Automatically As You Access and Use the Site
In addition to any Personal Information or other information you choose to submit to the Site, we and our third-party service providers, including without limitation any third-party advertisers and content and analytics providers, may use a variety of technologies that automatically or passively collect certain web site usage information whenever you visit or interact with the Site ("Site Usage Information"). This Site Usage Information may include without limitation the browser and operating system you are using, the URL or advertisement that referred you to our Site, the search terms you entered into a search engine that led you to our Site (if applicable), all of the areas within our Site that you visit, and the time of day, among other information. We may use this Site Usage Information for a variety of purposes, including without limitation enhancing or otherwise improving the Site. Site Usage Information is generally non-identifying, but if we associate it with you as a specific and identifiable person, we treat it as Personal Information.
In addition, we automatically collect your IP address or other unique identifier ("Device Identifier") for your computer, mobile phone, or other device (any, a "Device") used to access the Site. A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device used to access the Site, and our servers identify your Device by its Device Identifier. We may be able to collect or infer your approximate location through information that we collect, such as an IP address. Please note that some mobile service providers may also provide us or our third-party service providers with information regarding the physical location of the Device used to access the Site.
The methods used to collect Site Usage Information may include, without limitation, the following:
Cookies. A cookie is a data file placed on a Device when it is used to visit the Site or otherwise access our online content. Cookies may be used for many purposes, including, without limitation, remembering you and your preferences and tracking your visits to our web pages. A Flash cookie is a data file placed on a Device via the Adobe Flash plugin that may be built-in to or downloaded by you to your Device. Flash cookies may be used for various purposes, including, without limitation, enabling a Flash feature and remembering your preferences. For more information about Flash and the privacy choices Adobe offers, visit http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html. If you choose to disable cookies or to adjust your Flash privacy settings on your Device, some features of the Site may not function properly.
Web Beacons. Small graphic images or other web programming code called web beacons, (also known as "1x1 GIFs" or "clear GIFs") may be included in our web pages and e-mail messages. Web beacons may be invisible to you, but any electronic image or other web programming code inserted into a web page or e-mail can act as a web beacon. Web beacons or similar technologies may be used for a number of purposes, including, without limitation, to count visitors to the Site, to monitor how users navigate the Site, to count how many e-mails that were sent were actually opened or to count how many particular articles or links were actually viewed.
Embedded Scripts. An embedded script is programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with the Site, such as the links you click on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto your Device from our Web server or a third-party service provider, is active only while you are connected to the Site, and is deactivated or deleted thereafter.
In addition, we may use a variety of other technologies that collect similar information for security and fraud detection purposes.
Orion may use information collected through the Site, including without limitation your Personal Information and Site Usage Information, in order to: (1) allow you to participate in the Site and features offered through the Site and to provide customer service; (2) tailor content, recommendations, and offers we display to you, both on the Site and elsewhere online; (3) process your registration with the Site, including without limitation verifying that your e-mail address is active and valid; (4) provide you with services or information or fulfill transactions that you have requested or otherwise agreed to receive; (5) send you special offers from us, our advertisers, or third-party business partners; (6) allow you to participate in the public areas and other features of the Site; (7) contact you with regard to your use of the Site or similar administrative communications, including, without limitation and in our discretion, changes to the Site's policies; (8) use for internal business purposes such as to improve the Site or our products and services and to comply with regulatory and legal obligations; or (9) use for purposes as disclosed at the time you provide your information or otherwise with your consent, and as further described in this Privacy Policy.
Orion may share non-personally identifiable information, such as aggregated user statistics and de-identified information, with third parties in our discretion. We do not share your Personal Information with third parties for those third parties' marketing purposes unless we provide you the opportunity to opt-in or opt-out prior to such sharing. In addition, Orion may share the information we have collected about you, including without limitation Personal Information, as disclosed at the time you provide your information or otherwise with your consent, as described in this Privacy Policy and in the following circumstances:
Third Parties Providing Services on Our Behalf. We sometimes use other businesses to perform services for us, such as web site hosting, conducting web site usage analysis, sending e-mail or other communications, fulfilling orders, providing marketing assistance and data analysis, clearing or performing other administrative services. We may provide access to your Personal Information to such service providers in order for them to complete a requested transaction or otherwise to perform these services.
When You Agree to Receive Information from Third Parties or Request That We Share Your Information. You may be presented with an opportunity to receive information and/or marketing offers from one or more third parties. If you agree at that time to have your Personal Information shared, your Personal Information will be disclosed to that third party (or parties) and will be subject to the privacy policy and practices of that third party. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of third parties, and, if you later decide that you no longer want to receive communications from a third party, you will need to contact that third party directly. You also may request, sometimes through your use of an interactive feature or third-party application, that we share information about you with a third party and we will typically do so under those circumstances.
Sweepstakes, Contests and Promotions. We may offer sweepstakes, contests or other promotions (any, a “Promotion”), that may require registration. By participating in a Promotion, you are agreeing to the provisions, conditions, or official rules that govern that Promotion, which may contain specific requirements of you (including, without limitation and except where prohibited by law, allowing the sponsor(s) of the Promotion to use you name, voice likeness or other indicia of persona in advertising or marketing materials). If you choose to enter a Promotion, Personal Information may be disclosed to third parties or the public in connection with the administration of such Promotion, including, without limitation, in connection with winner selection, prize fulfillment, as required by law or permitted by the Promotion's terms or official rules (such as on a winners list).
Administrative and Legal Reasons. Orion may transfer and disclose information, including without limitation your Personal Information, Site Usage Information and Device Identifier (e.g., IP address), to third parties to comply with a legal obligation; when we believe in good faith that the law requires it; at the request of governmental authorities conducting an investigation; to verify or enforce our Terms of Use or other applicable Site policies; to respond to an emergency; or otherwise to protect the rights, property, safety, or security of third parties, Site visitors or the public. We may also use Device Identifiers (for example, IP addresses) to identify users, and may do so in cooperation with copyright owners, Internet service providers, wireless service providers or law enforcement agencies, in our discretion. Such disclosures may be carried out without notice to you.
Business Transfers. Orion may share Personal Information with its parent, subsidiaries and affiliates, primarily for business and operational purposes. Further, in the event that Orion goes through a transition such as being sold, has all or a portion of its assets acquired or transferred, whether voluntary or involuntary (such as through bankruptcy), or merges or becomes affiliated with any other division, individual or entity (including, without limitation, during the course of any due diligence process), any customer information owned or under the control of Orion (including without limitation your Personal Information) will likely be one of the transferred assets. We reserve the right, as part of this type of transaction, to transfer or assign your information (including without limitation Personal Information) and other information we have collected from users of the Site. By providing your Personal Information, you agree that we may transfer such information to the acquiring entity without your further consent.
Orion may work with network advertisers, ad agencies, analytics service providers, and other vendors to serve third-party advertisements on the Site, to provide us with information regarding traffic on the Site, including without limitation the pages viewed and the actions users take when visiting the Site; to serve our advertisements elsewhere online; and to provide us with information regarding the use of the Site and the effectiveness of our advertisements. For example, if you click on an advertisement for Orion, our service provider(s) may be able to tell us the advertisement you clicked on and where you were viewing the advertisement; likewise, if you click on an advertisement you see on our Site, our service provider(s) may be able to tell which page you were visiting on our Site and pass that information to the advertiser. The advertisements you see may be served by one or more third parties, who may use information about your activities on the Site, and other web sites and services you visit, to provide you targeted advertising based upon your interests. Our service providers may collect certain information about your visits to and activity on the Sites and other web sites and services and may use this information to target advertising to you.
These service providers may set and access their own tracking technologies on your Device (including without limitation cookies, and web beacons) and may otherwise collect or have access to information about you (such as your Site Usage Information and Device Identifier). Some of these parties may collect Personal Information over time when you visit the Sites or other online web sites and services. Cookies and web beacons, including without limitation those set by third-party network advertisers, may be used to (among other things): target advertisements, prevent you from seeing the same advertisements too many times, and conduct research regarding the usefulness of certain advertisements to you. We may share certain information such as Device Identifiers Usage, Information and de-identified information with third-party advertising companies, analytics providers and other vendors for similar purposes.
While we may use a variety of service providers to perform advertising and analytics services, some of these companies may be members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) or Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. You may wish to visit http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp, which provides information regarding targeted advertising and the “opt-out” procedures of NAI members. You may also want to visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/, which provides information regarding targeted advertising and offers an "opt-out" by participating companies in the DAA Self-Regulatory Program.
For mobile apps, you can typically limit ad tracking using the settings on your phone, tablet or other mobile device.
Please note opting out through these mechanisms does not opt you out of being served advertising. You will continue to receive generic ads while online or on your device.
Some Internet browsers may be configured to send “Do Not Track” signals to the online services that you visit. There is no consensus among industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context. Like many web sites and online services, the Site does not alter their practices when they receive a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.
The Site may contain web pages through which you can correct or update some of the Personal Information you have provided to us through registration with the Site or through which you can unsubscribe or modify the email newsletters or similar communications we send to you. Also, users who receive a newsletter or other similar e-mails from us and who wish to remove themselves from the mailing list (i.e. opt out) can do so by following the link provided in an e-mail received. The Site may also offer an online mechanism for changing your preferences. However, please note that we reserve the right to send you certain communications relating to your use of our Site, service announcements, notices of changes to this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Use or similar administrative or transactional messages, and these transactional account messages may be unaffected if you choose to opt-out from marketing communications.
You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of the information you submit to us, such as your contact information either through any online account feature offered or by contacting us. Orion will make good faith efforts to make requested changes in our then active databases as soon as reasonably practicable. Please note that when you edit your information or change your preferences, the information you remove may persist internally or for our administrative purposes. Also, please note that it is not always possible to completely remove or delete all of your information from our databases and that residual data may remain on backup media or for other reasons.
If you have made any public postings on the Site, such as in Community Forums, these communications cannot generally be removed.
Certain content on the Site may be hosted and served by third parties, and the Site may contain links to third-party web sites that Orion does not control. For example, our Site may provide links to third-party sites through which you can purchase merchandise, products or services or which link to a product or service offered by a third party. The Site may also contain certain third-party applications, such as email, web browser toolbars, wallpapers or other downloads or software applications. These links and applications may include without limitation those that use an Orion logo as part of a co-branding agreement. In addition, Orion widgets or other Orion content may be included on web pages and web sites that are not associated with Orion and over which we have no control. These third parties may collect Site Usage Information through the use of their own cookies and web beacons, independently collect data or solicit Personal Information, and may have the ability to track your use of their sites and services. Orion is not responsible for the privacy practices employed by any third party.
While Orion takes commercially reasonable steps to secure your Personal Information. However, no data transmission over the Internet, wireless transmission or electronic storage of information can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Please not that we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information we collect. You use our Site and provide us information at your own risk.
This Privacy Policy and the privacy practices of Orion will be subject exclusively to the laws of the State of California within the United States of America, without regard to applicable conflict of laws principles. Orion makes no representation that this Privacy Policy and such practices comply with the laws of any other country. Visitors who use the Site and reside outside the United States do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable. If you are located in the European Union, Canada or elsewhere outside of the United States, please be aware that any information you provide to us will be transferred and processed in the United States, a jurisdiction in which the privacy laws may not be as comprehensive as those in the country where you reside or are a citizen. By using the Site or providing us with any information, you fully understand and unambiguously consent to this transfer, storage, and processing of your information in the United States.
Orion reserves the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy and will notify you of material changes by posting the Privacy Policy on our Site. We may also provide notice to you in other ways in our discretion, such as through contact information you have provided. Any changes will be effective immediately upon the posting of the revised Privacy Policy unless otherwise specified. We will not use your Personal Information in a manner materially different from the Privacy Policy in effect at the time we collected your Personal Information, unless you provide your consent to such use. However, you may need to consent to the new or revised policy in order to continue to access or use the Site.
Pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1798.83, residents of the State of California have the right to request from companies conducting business in California certain information relating to third parties to which the company has disclosed certain categories of personal information during the preceding year for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Alternatively, the law provides that a company may comply, as Orion does, by disclosing in its privacy policy that it provides consumers choice (opt-out or opt-in) regarding sharing personal information with third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes, and information on how to exercise that choice. As stated above in this Privacy Policy, Orion provides you choice prior to sharing your personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. If you do not opt-in or if you do not choose to opt-out at the time Orion offers that choice, Orion does not share your information with that identified third party for its direct marketing purposes.
If you are a California resident and you have questions about our practices with respect to sharing information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes and your ability to exercise choice, please send your request to the following email address: CAprivacyrights@Orion-Television.com or write to us at the following mailing address: CA Privacy Rights, Orion Television Legal Department, 245 N. Beverly Drive, Beverly Hills, CA 90210. You must put the statement "Your California Privacy Rights" in the subject field of your e-mail or include it in your writing if you choose to write to us at the designated mailing address. You must include your name, street address, city, state, and zip code. We are not responsible for notices that are not labeled or sent properly, or do not have complete information.
