GENERAL PRIVACY INFORMATION

that these Sites are operated in accordance with the laws or regulations of, or
governed by, other nations. By your participation in our Sites activities, you
certify that you are at least 14 years of age and a resident of the European
Union and you participate in activities on these Sites contrary to our policy
that only Spanish residents are eligible for certain activities, you do so at
your own risk and initiative, and you, not us, are responsible for compliance
with any applicable local and national laws. Please be aware that any Personal
Information you provide to us or we obtain as a result of your use of these
Sites will be transferred to Spain and subject to Spanish law. By using these Sites, participating in any Site
activities, and/or providing us with your Personal Information, you consent to
this transfer and processing of Personal Information to and in Spain, and in
other countries that may not have an equivalent level of protection or a level
of data protection considered adequate in the European Union or European Economic
Area. Consequently, you hereby waive any claims that may arise under the laws
and regulations that apply to you in or of any other country or jurisdiction.
All users of the Sites are required to provide true, current, complete and
accurate Personal Information when prompted and we will reject and delete any
entry that we believe in good faith to be false, fraudulent, or inconsistent
with this Privacy Policy. Your continued use of the Sites indicates your
acceptance of this Privacy Policy and of the collection, use, disclosure,
management and storage of your Personal Information as described below. We may
from time to time, transfer or merge any Personal Information collected
off-line to our online databases or store off-line information in an electronic
format. We may also combine Personal Information we collect online with
information available from other sources, including information received from
our Affiliates, marketing companies, or Advertisers (as defined in the Terms of Use Agreement). This Privacy
Policy covers all such Personal Information and will remain in full force and
effect as long as you are a user of the Sites even if your use of or
participation in any particular service, feature, function or promotional
activity terminates, expires, ceases, is suspended or deactivated for any
reason.
1. Collection and Use of Personal Information: When we use the term
"Personal Information" we mean information such as your first/middle
initial or name and last name, street address, town or province, postal code,
telephone number, instant-messenger nickname, blog or other personal website
URL, date of birth, e-mail address, gender, ethnicity and any other information
that would allow someone to identify you or contact you. Personal Information
also includes information about your personal preferences, survey responses and
your transactions or relationship with us, if you have been a customer or a
user of the Sites or you have provided this type of information to any of the
MTV Networks family of companies. For example, to the extent we offer such
services, if you order any of our various Products (as defined in the Terms of Use Agreement), in addition
to your name and contact information, we will also collect and maintain your
billing address, shipping address, Product selections, your credit card or
other payment instrument information, your order number, and information about
your computer's internet address and website which may have referred or
directed you to the Sites (e.g., the referring URLs). Your credit card or debit
card number is classified as "Sensitive Personal Information" and is
collected via a secure transmission.
We collect Personal Information about you when you visit the Sites and input
information, whether you are registering to use any services, features or
functions of the Sites, participating in Promotions (as defined in the Terms of Use Agreement), ordering or
purchasing Products or in the course of any other exchanges of information,
transactions and activities. We may use the information we obtain from you,
including Personal Information, to tailor your experience on the Sites, to
display content we think may be of interest to you, or to let us customize what
you see when you visit the Sites according to your preferences and personal
characteristics.
a. Collection of Personal Information During Registration. To the extent we
offer user registration on the Sites, to register as a member of the Sites, you
are required to select a user name and password (together, your "User
ID"), and may be required to also provide other Personal Information, such
as your email address, first and last name, gender, date of birth, country and
postal code. Additional Personal Information may be requested during the
registration process (but not required), such as cable/satellite provider,
ethnic information, and annual income. We will allow you to change the password
portion of your User ID, as well as certain other Personal Information or
Sensitive Personal Information you have given us in order to keep your
information current, but once you select a user name you will not be able to
change that user name provided to us during registration and which is
associated with your User ID. Among other things, these kinds of information
help us securely identify you as a registered or permitted user of the Sites
and our features and functions. You will not be able to change your date of
birth without sufficient verification.
All member benefits are free. As a registered user of the Sites, from time
to time, we may also provide you with certain options to subscribe to a
selection of free email newsletters and other periodic information. You may
select such options by opting-in at the time of registration or by responding
to an offer or invitation at a later date. You will also have the right to
opt-out (unsubscribe) or change your preferences at any time by logging in with
your User ID and changing the settings in your account. You may also opt-out to
particular email communications by responding to that email and using the
"unsubscribe" or opt-out procedure included in that communication.
If you are a registered user, you acknowledge, understand and hereby agree
that you are giving us your consent to track your activities and your use of
the Sites in connection with your registration. You also agree to this Privacy
Policy and the Terms of Use Agreement.
b. Collection of Personal Information During Registration or In Connection
with Certain Features and Functions.
During registration (and possibly at certain other times to enable your use
of other features or functions or for security purposes), you will be required
to provide us with certain information about you in order for us to personalize
and allow you to use the features and functions that we may offer on the Sites,
such as chat rooms, message boards, electronic mail services, messaging
services, auctions, shopping, registration and member profile pages.
c. Collection of Personal Information in Connection with Promotions such as
Contests and Sweepstakes: To the extent we offer user registration on the
Sites, registration as a member of the Sites is not always required to enter
Promotions such as contests and sweepstakes. There may be a separate
registration process which will require the submission of all or some of the
following: your first and last name, street address, province and postal code,
email address, telephone number and date of birth. Additional Personal
Information may be requested depending on the specific Promotion, but
submission of such information may be optional. The Promotion's entry page
and/or Rules will provide the specific requirements. You may also have the
opportunity to opt-in to special Promotions or offers from our Advertisers in
connection with many of these types of Promotions.
d. Use of Personal Information in Connection with Personalized Advertising.
We may use characteristics about you such as age, gender and/or ethnicity for
personalizing the online advertising from third parties that you see when you
visit the Sites. This information may be used to send you personalized
advertising in combination with non-Personal Information such as your website
viewing, usage and purchasing history, which is not part of your user profile.
(For more information, please see "Cookies and Other Technology"
section.) You submit this Personal Information at the time of your registration;
it is part of your online profile and associated with your User ID. We use
third party ad servers to deliver personalized advertising to you. However,
neither these ad servers nor their advertisers will have access to your
individual online profile or your age, gender and ethnicity information. These
third parties only deliver designated advertising to a targeted group of users
which have been identified by the Sites based on certain characteristics and
the Sites instruct the third parties to serve the ads but the identity or
characteristics of an individual user is unknown to the third parties. Age,
gender and/or ethnicity is only disclosed to third parties in the aggregate and
cannot be used to identify an individual user. By registering for the Sites,
you have affirmatively consented to the use of such information for
personalized advertising. In order to withdraw your consent to use such
information for personalized advertising, you shall need to deactivate your
account on the Site by following the procedures set forth in Section 13 of the
"Terms of Use Agreement"
labeled "Deactivation/Termination of Your Registration or Use".
e. Use of Personal Information in Connection with Promotions and Offers; Opt-out
Procedures. We, or our Affiliates, may contact the Site's registered users or
other users that have registered for or participated in various Site events,
Promotions, or transactions, or we may send offers for the purchase of goods
and/or services that may of interest to users.
You may "opt out" of receiving marketing and promotional e-mails
or text messages from us by using the opt-out mechanism that is contained in an
email or text message. However, we, or our Affiliates, may continue to contact
you via email for administrative or informational purposes, including follow-up
messages regarding the administration of your account, any services, features
or functions you have enrolled in or registered to use, any Promotions you have
participated in or have entered, goods and/or services or Products you have
ordered, or other transactions you have undertaken with the Sites. In the event
that we, or our Affiliates, unknowingly sends an email or text message to a
child (a person under the age of 14 years) who has registered with the Sites in
violation of the Sites' Terms of Use
Agreement, the child or the child's parent or legal guardian always has the
right to unsubscribe (opt-out) from receiving future emails or text messages
via the unsubscribe mechanism contained in the email or message, or to request
termination of the child's registration and status as a registered user with
the Sites. The same unsubscribe process is available to a parent or legal
guardian of a minor (a person under the age of 18 years old, or the age of
majority in your Country). Please see the "Review, Update, or Delete Your
Personal Information" Section below for details.
f. Sharing of Aggregate Information with Third Parties. Some of the
aggregate user data we collect may be shared with Advertisers, our Affiliates,
and other business partners of the Sites, Grupo Aterces, S.L. and/or its
Affiliates, but we do not give any Personal Information to them as part of the
relationship except as described in this Privacy Policy. Use of their tracking
technology is subject to their own privacy policies.
g. Use of Communities. If you use any of the Communities' features and
functions made available on or through the Sites, please remember that any information
disclosed in these venues is automatically made public. You should exercise
caution when disclosing any Personal Information in the Communities, as you do
not know who will access and use your Personal Information or for what
purposes. Grupo Aterces, S.L. is in no way responsible for the accuracy, use,
or misuse of any information, including Personal Information, that you disclose
or receive through these venues and you should assume that any disclosure you
do make in these venues will be available publicly, even without your knowledge
or authorization.
2. Wireless Marketing Services and Promotional
Opportunities: Grupo Aterces, S.L. may provide its website users and viewers
with the opportunity to register for special Promotions, services, news, programming
and information delivered via text messaging and other wireless devices such as
mobile phones and, in the event we do so, users are required to provide their
consent to receive such information from Grupo Aterces, S.L., either by
registering on these Sites or via their wireless device. Such services and
promotional opportunities are provided by Affiliates for Grupo Aterces, S.L.
The Personal Information requested as part of the online registration process
may include a user's telephone number or a wireless email address, but only if
specifically requested, and the carrier's name. Optional information may be
requested for specific Promotions, such as a user's preferences regarding goods
or services, choices of music or artists, or other similar survey information.
Depending on the Promotion, we may also collect an Internet email address or
other information and, depending on the information collected, the user may
also be required to confirm his or her agreement to the Sites' Privacy Policy
and the Terms of Use Agreement.
We caution that most wireless transmissions are not secured and there is a
greater risk of an unknown third party's interception of messages or a user's
Personal Information when using a wireless communications device.
Users that register for Grupo Aterces, S.L.'s wireless marketing services
acknowledge, understand and agree that they will be charged by the user's
wireless carrier for all messages sent to the user from Grupo Aterces, S.L.
Standard messaging rates will apply, unless noted otherwise. Under no
circumstances will the Sites, Grupo Aterces, S.L., the Parent Company or
Affiliates be responsible for any wireless email or text messaging charges
incurred by a user or by a person that has access to a user's wireless device,
telephone number, or email address.
a. Registration. To the extent we provide wireless marketing services, there
are two registration methods provided for Grupo Aterces, S.L.'s wireless
marketing services. Standard rate Promotions will be subject to either the
"single opt-in" or the "double-opt-in (Site/SMS)" method,
at the discretion of Grupo Aterces, S.L. depending on the type of Promotion.
Premium rate services will require the "double opt-in" (Site/SMS or
SMS/SMS) method.
1) Single Opt-in Method: In response to print, radio, television, Internet,
or other promotional messages, users will be directed to send a specific word
or code via a text message to a designated telephone number to register for the
service promoted. The user's voluntary submission of the designated word or
code to Grupo Aterces, S.L. will mean that the user has freely and
affirmatively granted permission to Grupo Aterces, S.L. to send text messages
to him or her. Grupo Aterces, S.L. will thank the user for his or her
registration by sending a "Thank you" message. The user may terminate
the service at any time by using the unsubscribe command in any text message
from Grupo Aterces, S.L. or by sending a text message to Grupo Aterces, S.L.
that says "STOP", "END", "CANCEL",
"REMOVE", "UNSUBSCRIBE" or "QUIT".
2) Double Opt-in (Site/SMS) Method: In response to print, radio, television,
Internet, or other promotional messages, users will be directed to these Sites
to start the registration process. The user must affirmatively consent to Grupo
Aterces, S.L.'s sending of wireless messages to his or her designated wireless
device by submitting a telephone number (or wireless email address, only if
requested by Grupo Aterces, S.L.) and by clicking the consent statement on the
Sites' registration page. The user must also agree to the Sites' Privacy Policy
and Agreement before the online registration process is completed. Grupo
Aterces, S.L. will then send a "Confirmation" message to the user's designated
wireless device and will request that the user confirm that he or she has
agreed to receive messages from Grupo Aterces, S.L. to that particular
telephone number (or wireless domain name when appropriate). The user must
respond to the "Confirmation" message with a text message that states
"YES" or "Y" that will indicate the user's acceptance of
Grupo Aterces, S.L.'s wireless marketing service. Until the user responds to
the "Confirmation" message, the user is not registered for the
specific wireless marketing service subject to the Promotion. A user may
respond to the "Confirmation" message at any time provided that Grupo
Aterces, S.L. may choose to terminate offering wireless marketing service at
any time and the user's response to the "Confirmation" is only valid
if the response is received while Grupo Aterces, S.L. continues to offer the
specific wireless marketing service.
3) Double Opt-in (SMS/SMS) Method: In response to print, radio, television,
Internet, or other promotional messages, users will be directed to send a
specific word or code via a text message to a designated telephone number to
register for the service promoted. Grupo Aterces, S.L. will then send a
"Confirmation" message to the user's designated wireless device and
will request that the user confirm that he or she has agreed to receive
messages from Grupo Aterces, S.L. to that particular telephone number (or
wireless domain name when appropriate). The user must respond to the
"Confirmation" message with a text message that states
"YES" or "Y" that will indicate the user's acceptance of
Grupo Aterces, S.L.'s wireless marketing service. Until the user responds to
the "Confirmation" message, the user is not registered for the
specific wireless marketing service subject to the Promotion. A user may
respond to the "Confirmation" message at any time provided that Grupo
Aterces, S.L. may choose to terminate offering wireless marketing service at
any time and the user's response to the "Confirmation" is only valid
if the response is received while Grupo Aterces, S.L. continues to offer the
specific wireless marketing service.
b. Termination of Wireless Services by User. Regardless of which one of the
above opt-in methods was used to register, users may revoke their consent to
receive messages from Grupo Aterces, S.L. by the following procedure:
A user may cancel one or more services via his or her wireless device at any
time by using the unsubscribe mechanism provided by Grupo Aterces, S.L. at the
time the message is sent, or by sending a text message that says
"STOP", "END", "CANCEL", "REMOVE",
"UNSUBSCRIBE" or "QUIT". Grupo Aterces, S.L. will terminate
the user's registration for the most recent wireless service sent to the user.
Any of these words followed by the word "ALL" in the user's
termination request will cancel all of the user's registered wireless services
with Grupo Aterces, S.L. If the user unsubscribes from one or all of Grupo
Aterces, S.L. service(s) via his or her wireless device, the service(s) will be
terminated immediately and will cancel the user's previous opt-in.
c. Termination of Wireless Services by Grupo Aterces, S.L. A user
understands, acknowledges and agrees that Grupo Aterces, S.L. may, in its sole
discretion and without liability to any user, terminate its offer of any specific
wireless marketing service or all wireless marketing services at any time
without advance notice. Grupo Aterces, S.L. may provide notice of terminations
or changes in services on the Sites.
d. Use of Information Grupo Aterces, S.L. will not use a wireless telephone
number, wireless or conventional Internet email address, or other Personal
Information submitted for its wireless marketing services for any other purpose
but to provide the service requested, unless we provide advance notice of any
other use. We will not share such Personal Information with Advertisers or
other third party marketers unless you opt-in to such disclosure. We will share
such Personal Information with the operational service providers that assist us
in delivering these wireless services to you and with the Parent Company and
Affiliates.
3. Accuracy and Confidentiality: It is your responsibility to give us
current, complete, truthful and accurate information, including Personal
Information, and to keep such information up to date. We cannot and will not be
responsible for any problems or liability that may arise if you do not give us
accurate, truthful or complete information or Personal Information or you fail
to update such information or Personal Information.
You are solely responsible for maintaining the strict confidentiality of
your User ID, if applicable, and for any charges, costs, expenses, damages,
liabilities and losses we incur or may suffer as a result of your failure to do
so. You, and not us, are solely responsible and liable for your activity,
behavior, use and conduct on the Site and for any use of the Site or any other
activity or conduct in connection with the Site by any others who use your User
ID, unless and until you notify us that your User ID may have been compromised,
misappropriated or improperly taken or used by another party.
Bear in mind that when you submit information to us, it does not guarantee
that we will permit you to use any or all of the features or functions of the
Sites.
4. Cookies and Other Technologies: We use ‘cookies' and other similar
tracking technologies, such as web beacons (also known as image tags, GIF or
web bugs) to collect non-personal "click stream" data regarding your
visits to the Sites, such as your visits to the Sites' webpages, use of our
features, and purchasing history or preferences. Your Personal Information
(such as name, email address and credit card account information) is not
collected as part of this process.
We use cookies and similar tracking technology in a variety of ways,
including: Keeping count of your return visits to the Sites or Grupo Aterces,
S.L.'s, the Parent Company's or our Affiliates', Advertisers' or partners'
sites; Accumulating and reporting aggregate, statistical information in
connection with the Sites; Determining which features users like best; and
Saving your user name, your password or other information so you don't have to
re-enter it each time you visit the Sites.
The Sites may contain advertisements, references and links to other websites
and organizations that are not affiliated with Grupo Aterces, S.L., but are
provided by a variety of Advertisers or third-party network ad servers that may
also use cookies to deliver personalized advertising messages to you based on
your individual interests, website viewing habits, purchasing history or
preferences ("Behavioral Personalized Advertising") and/or your
general characteristics (such as age, gender and ethnicity)
("Characteristics Personalized Advertising"). If you do not wish to
receive Behavioral Personalized Advertising, please see the opt-out
instructions below; if you do not wish to receive Characteristics Personalized
Advertising, please see the "Use of Personal Information in Connection
with Personalized Advertising" section (Section 1(d)) above for how to
withdraw your consent.
Opting out to an ad server cookie does not mean that you will no longer
receive online ads. Opting out means only that such ads will no longer be
tailored to your specific viewing habits or interests, but you will continue to
see ads on this Site.
These third party Advertisers and network ad servers may employ their own
cookies and other technology to provide personalized advertising and measure
advertising effectiveness. You should be aware that different rules might apply
to the collection, use or disclosure of your Personal Information and website
viewing/usage information by third parties in connection with their
advertisements, promotions and other websites you encounter on the Internet.
The use of cookies and similar technology by these third parties is within
their control and not ours. Even if we have a relationship with the third
party, we do not control those websites or their policies and practices
regarding your Personal Information. This Privacy Policy does not cover any use
of Personal Information or website viewing/usage information that a third party
Advertiser or ad server may directly collect from you. We encourage you to
investigate and ask questions directly of them in this regard.
Notice for Certain Device Manufacturers: Certain device manufacturers, such
as Apple, preset their browsers to block cookies from websites other than those
you visit directly. As a result, services or advertisements offered by certain
ad servers, operational service providers and/or Advertisers which use cookies
will not work for browsers left in this default setting. Review your device
manufacturers' manual or contact your device manufacturers' customer service
for your options.
5. Privacy of Your Postings: We respect the privacy of the contents of any
Personal Information related to or contained in a Posting, unless the
information is intended to be disclosed (such Personal Information, except as
intended to be disclosed, is called "Confidential Personal
Information"). However, we reserve the right to monitor, edit, and
disclose your use of the Sites or Confidential Personal Information to a third
party, if we believe such action is required by law or is necessary to protect
and defend our rights, to enforce this Privacy Policy or the terms of the Terms of Use Agreement, or to protect
the interests of our users, Advertisers, the Parent Company, Affiliates,
licensors, suppliers, operational service providers, and others. Please see the
Terms of Use Agreement for details regarding Postings.
6. Disclosure to Third Parties: We do not sell, rent, lease or disclose your
Personal Information to unaffiliated entities or entities that are not our
Advertisers, except in the limited circumstances listed below. As stated above,
we will disclose Personal Information related to or contained in a Posting in
connection with the display of and other services relating to such Posting as
such Personal Information is intended to be disclosed. When we plan to disclose
your Personal Information to Advertisers, we ask for you to opt in to do so, in
which case their use of your information is subject to the Advertisers' own
privacy policies. We may disclose Personal Information to Affiliates for
marketing and/or administrative purposes and you will have the right to opt-out
of such disclosure for marketing purposes. (For opt-out procedures, please see
the section of this Privacy Policy above entitled "Use of Personal
Information in Connection with Promotions and Offers; Opt-Out
Procedures").
a. Co-Branded Services and Features. The Sites may also offer co-branded
services and features, such as events and Promotions that we put together with
another company or our Affiliates ("Co-Branded Partner"). Such
services and features may be hosted on the Sites and/or our Co-Branded
Partner's website. We may share your Personal Information with our Co-Branded
Partner and your voluntary use of or participation in a co-branded service or
feature means that you opt-in and give your affirmative consent to both the
Sites and our Co-Branded Partner to collect and use your Personal Information
provided during the registration process and/or in connection with the specific
co-branded feature or service for the fulfillment of the feature or service and
for marketing or administrative purposes. If you wish to opt-out of a
Co-Branded Partner's future use of your Personal Information for marketing
purposes, you will need to contact the Co-Branded Partner directly. The
Co-Branded Partner will be identified on the co-branded feature or service.
Registered or other users that participate in certain services relating to
Postings, such as user video uploads, agree to have certain Personal
Information posted on the Sites or platforms or, if such feature is offered in
connection with a Co-Branded Partner, on our Co-Branded partner's website in
connection with the display of the uploaded video and posted on any platform
that the uploaded video may be posted. Registered or other users that upload
videos may also be required to submit additional Personal Information.
b. Operational Service Providers. We also have the right to disclose your
Personal Information to third parties for the purpose of administering and
maintaining the Sites' services, features, functions and operations. We will
refer to these third parties as "operational service providers". We
use operational service providers to efficiently provide the full range of content,
activities, services, features and functions we bring you and we request that
our operational service providers also protect your privacy and not disclose
your Personal Information or Sensitive Personal Information to third party
marketers that are not associated with the Sites or Grupo Aterces, S.L.
Additionally, such operational service providers are not permitted to use your
Personal Information or Sensitive Personal Information for their own marketing
or promotional purposes.
c. Other Non-Affiliated Third Parties. We will make your Personal
Information and Sensitive Personal Information available to non-affiliated
third parties in the following limited circumstances:
When we are compelled to do so by a governmental agency, court or other
entity (e.g., to respond to subpoenas, court orders or legal process); If we
believe your actions violate any law, regulation, the Terms of Use Agreement, including,
without limitation, this Privacy Policy, or any of our other terms and
conditions, Rules, offerings or any other services, features or functions of
the Sites, or if you threaten the rights, property or safety of the Sites,
Grupo Aterces, S.L., the Parent Company, the Affiliates, or any of its or their
operational service providers, suppliers, Advertisers, customers or users, or
any other party; If, in our sole discretion, we believe such disclosure to be
necessary or appropriate to investigate or resolve possible problems or
inquiries, to protect our business and assets, to defend our interests and/or
to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations; or In the event of a
bankruptcy, merger, acquisition, transfer of control, joint venture or other
business combination involving us, Grupo Aterces, S.L., the Parent Company or
our Affiliates.
7. Security & Protection of Personal Information: We maintain reasonable
standards of security and confidentiality. However, for most Internet sites, it
is possible that third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions
or private communications over an unsecured transmission. We conduct financial
transactions via secured transmissions but may not always secure other parts of
the Sites. We also limit access to the Sites by our own employees to those
individuals who are authorized for the proper handling of such information and
any employee found violating our standards of security and confidentiality will
be subject to our disciplinary processes. We request that our operational
service providers follow the same policy.
8. Phishing: Phishing attacks attempt to steal consumers' personal identity
data and financial account credentials. "Phishers" use ‘spoofed'
e-mails to lead consumers to counterfeit websites designed to trick recipients
into divulging Personal Information such as credit card numbers, account
usernames, passwords, and social security numbers. WE DO NOT SEND EMAILS ASKING
YOU TO PROVIDE OR CONFIRM SENSITIVE PERSONAL INFORMATION OR YOUR USERNAME OR
PASSWORD! If you receive such email communication, please forward it
immediately to the Sites' Privacy Administrator at info@aterces.com with (Fraud) typed at
the end of the subject line, and then immediately delete the fraudulent email
from your computer.
9. Review, Update or Delete Your Personal Information: Generally, you may
review, update or delete your Personal Information or Sensitive Personal
Information collected by the Sites. You may also correct factual inaccuracies.
However, Personal Information that is necessary to check eligibility, such as
date of birth or age cannot be deleted, but may be modified with sufficient
verification of the correct information. Deletion or attempted deletion of
certain Personal Information, such as your user name, may not be permitted and/or
may result in suspension of your account or termination of any registration you
may have made. To review, update or delete your Personal Information or
Sensitive Personal Information collected by the Sites, please click "MY
ACCOUNT" on the homepage to sign in to your Site account with your user
name and password. Then, click on "SETTINGS" to change, update, or
delete your Personal Information. If you wish to review Personal Information

provide verification of your identity. Personal Information collected for
certain entries are subject to corporate and regulatory recordkeeping
requirements and will not be deleted upon the user's request, unless the
entrant is a child under the age of 14 years old. Children under the age of 14
that are unknowingly registered on the Sites are in violation of this
Agreement. Parents (including legal guardians) of children that registered on
the Sites in violation of the Terms of
Use Agreement who wish to terminate their child's membership must use their
child's user name and password (User ID) to gain direct access to the account,
and select "SETTINGS" or alternatively, you can send us an email to
the Sites' Privacy Administrator and provide us with your child's User ID and
request to terminate your child's account and registration. We will not allow
direct access to a user's account and Personal Information by any person
without the user's User ID. (Please see above for how to change your
preferences or the information associated with your account.) If a parent does
not have his or her child's User ID, the parent will be required to send an
email to the Privacy Administrator that includes the parent's name, address,
telephone and email address, in addition to the child's name and email address
as registered on the Sites, plus the child's date of birth. The parent must
also provide verifiable identification that they are the parent of the
ineligible child. Grupo Aterces, S.L. will send a confirming email to the
parent via the email address provided to verify that the parent wishes to
terminate his or her child's account and registration. The parent must then
confirm by sending a reply email to the designated return address. Grupo
Aterces, S.L. will then terminate the child's account but will notify the child
of the termination request via email and will identify the name, address and
email address of the person making the request.
We reserve the right to deny access, use and registration privileges to any
user, including, without limitation, a registered user of any services,
features or functions of the Sites if we believe there is a question about the
identity of the person trying to access the user's account or any services,
features or functions. And if the burden or expense of providing access to your
Personal Information is disproportionate to the risks to your privacy, or if
the legitimate rights of others would be violated, we may decide not to provide
access to such information. In such cases, we will provide to you an
explanation of why access cannot be provided and contact information for
further inquiries.
