What Information Does the Company Collect?
The Company collects two types of information from users of Company Sites: (1) non-personal information collected, for example, as you interact with our Web Sites that cannot be used to specifically identify or contact an individual (“Non-Personal Information”); and (2) personal information that can be used to specifically identify or contact an individual (“Personal Information”).
Non-Personal Information
When you visit any of the Company Sites, our web server automatically recognizes and collects certain Non-Personal Information about your visit to our Web Sites, such as your Internet Protocol (IP) Address and domain name.
The Company also collects and uses clickstream data, which includes a trail of electronic information left at each web site you visit. Such data tells us, for example, the type of computer and browsing software you are using and the address of the web site from which you linked to a Company Web Site. We may use this clickstream data to determine how much time visitors spend on each page of any of the Company Sites, how visitors navigate throughout the Web Sites, and how we may tailor our web pages to better meet the needs of visitors. Collection or use of clickstream data will be anonymous, aggregate, and will not intentionally contain any Personal Information.
The Company also uses cookies on the Web Sites, which are small pieces of data stored by your web browser that contain data regarding your settings and preferences, shopping cart contents, or other data used by and about your visits to our Web Sites. We use this information to, for example, recognize you and your computer when you return to any of the Company Sites, provide you with access to account information you may have entered on any of the Company Sites, compile statistics about traffic to Company Sites, and for other purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy. We do not use cookies to retrieve personal information about you from your computer. You can refuse cookies any time by turning them off in your Web browser. However, if you turn off cookies, certain features and functions of the Web Sites may not be available to you.
The Company also uses web beacon technology to help track usage and viewing of Company Sites and communications (such as emails). Web beacons, also sometimes called single pixel gifs or action tags, allow the Company to track page and message viewing counts and patterns, which we use to focus and tailor future content development and otherwise measure and improve the performance of our Web Sites and communications.
Any or all of the above-described activities may be performed on our behalf by our Representatives (defined below).

How Does the Company Aim to Protect My Information?
The security of your Personal Information is important to us. For example, when you register as a member, we endeavor to protect the security and integrity of any sensitive information collected thereon or therethrough by putting in place reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures. However, while we strive to protect your Personal Information, due to the inherent open nature of the Internet we cannot guarantee that communications between you and any Company Web Site, or information stored on any Company Web Site or our servers, will be free from unauthorized access by third parties such as hackers. Your use of the Web Sites demonstrates your assumption of this risk.
You should be aware that any information and content, including Personal Information, and User Content (as hereinafter defined) you post to message boards, community tools, or other publicly accessible forums may be viewed and used by anyone with access to such forums. By using these services, you assume the risk that the Personal Information and User Content provided by you may be viewed and used by third parties.
If you are using a shared or public computer, we recommend that you log off your profile and close your browser window when you have finished using any of our Web Sites. If you notice any inaccuracies in your Personal Information, please contact us immediately. In the unlikely event that we believe that the security of your Personal Information in our possession or control may have been compromised, we may seek to notify you of that development. If a notification is appropriate, we would endeavor to do so as promptly as possible under the circumstances, and, to the extent we have your e-mail address, we may notify you by e-mail. Unless you notify us and provide us with alternative contact information (which you are free to do at any time by emailing us at legal@miamiartweek.org), you consent to our use of e-mail as the means of such notification.
