MusicPersonalized.com strives to offer its visitors the many advantages of Internet technology and to provide an interactive and personalized experience. We may use Personally Identifiable Information (your name, e-mail address, street address, telephone number) subject to the terms of this privacy policy. We will never sell, barter, or rent your email address to any third party. Period.
How we gather information from users
How we collect and store information depends on the page you are visiting, the activities in which you elect to participate and the services provided. For example, you may be asked to provide information when you register for access to certain portions of our site or request certain features, such as newsletters or when you make a purchase. You may provide information when you participate in sweepstakes and contests, message boards and chat rooms, and other interactive areas of our site. Like most Web sites, our company also collects information automatically and through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to our visitors. For example, we may log the name of your Internet Service Provider or use cookie technology to recognize you and hold information from your visit. Among other things, the cookie may store your user name and password, sparing you from having to re-enter that information each time you visit, or may control the number of times you encounter a particular advertisement while visiting our site. As we adopt additional technology, we may also gather information through other means. In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us with information, for example by setting your browser to refuse to accept cookies, but if you do you may be unable to access certain portions of the site or may be asked to re-enter your user name and password, and we may not be able to customize the site’s features according to your preferences.
What we do with the information we collect
Like other Web publishers, we collect information to enhance your visit and deliver more individualized content and advertising. We respect your privacy and do not share your information with anyone.
Aggregated Information (information that does not personally identify you) may be used in many ways. For example, we may combine information about your usage patterns with similar information obtained from other users to help enhance our site and services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most or what features are most attractive). Aggregated Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and business partners. Again, this information does not include any Personally Identifiable Information about you or allow anyone to identify you individually.
We may use Personally Identifiable Information collected on MusicPersonalized.com to communicate with you about your registration and customization preferences; our Terms of Service and privacy policy; services and products offered by MusicPersonalized.com and other topics we think you might find of interest. Should you decide to opt in to our email messages, you may opt-out from receiving further information from us at any time by clicking the Unsubscribe option that appears at the bottom of every email you receive from us.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by MusicPersonalized.com may also be used for other purposes, including but not limited to site administration, troubleshooting, processing of e-commerce transactions, and other communications with you. Certain third parties who provide technical support for the operation of our site (our Web hosting service for example) may access such information. We will use your information only as permitted by law. In addition, from time to time as we continue to develop our business, we may sell, buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses. In such transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets. We may also disclose your information in response to a court order, at other times when we believe we are reasonably required to do so by law, in connection with the collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or to law enforcement authorities whenever we deem it appropriate or necessary. Please note we may not provide you with notice prior to disclosure in such cases.
Children's Privacy and COPPA Compliance
We are committed to protecting the privacy of children. Our website and services are directed to parents, not to children under the age of 13. However, we recognize that in offering personalized music for children, we may collect limited information about a child (such as their first name) through interactions with parents or guardians. We strictly adhere to the requirements of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and other applicable U.S. laws regarding children's privacy.
We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13 directly. Any personal information we may collect related to a child (such as the child's name, or preferences) is provided voluntarily by the parent or legal guardian over a secure SSL encrypted connection. We may collect the following types of information from parents or guardians for the purpose of creating personalized music: Child's first name and any other information that is required for personalization, such as preferences and preferred musical themes.
Before collecting any personal information about a child under 13, we require verifiable parental consent. By providing such information through our services, parents agree to the collection and use of their child's information solely for the purpose of creating personalized musical content.
Any information provided about a child will be used solely for the creation of personalized music content, and it will not be shared with third parties for marketing or other purposes. The personal information is not stored for longer than is necessary to provide the requested service.
Parents or legal guardians have the following rights regarding their child's personal information: Right to Review: Parents may request to review the personal information we have collected about their child at any time. Right to Delete: Parents may request the deletion of their child's personal information. Once deleted, this information cannot be recovered.
We take the security of your child's personal information seriously. All personal information collected from parents is stored securely, and we take appropriate measures to protect it from unauthorized access or misuse. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.
We comply with the requirements of COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act). We do not knowingly collect or use personal information from children under 13 without parental consent. Our services are designed for parents and guardians who can consent to the use of any information provided about their children.
