Your privacy on the Internet is of the utmost importance to us. At AMETV.org, we want to make your experience online satisfying, edifying and safe.

We feel you should fully understand our policy and the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information. This privacy statement deals with what information we gather and how we use it.

AMETV.org gathers two types of information about users:

• Information that users provide through optional, voluntary submissions. These are voluntary submissions to receive our electronic newsletters, to participate in our message boards or forums, to email a friend, and from participation in polls and surveys:

• Information AMETV.org gathers through aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content to readers' needs and to help our advertisers and sponsors better understand the demographics of our audience. There is no charge to view media content on AMETV.org (except for designated Pay Per View events) derives its revenue mainly from sponsorships and advertising, providing such aggregated demographic data is essential to keeping our service free to users. AMETV.org does not divulge any information about an individual user to any unaffiliated third party.

Privacy Policy

1. Electronic Newsletters

We offer several free electronic newsletters to our users. AMETV.org gathers the email addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe, either as a part of the Free Pass registration process or in response to opt-in links on our site or in our publications. Users may remove themselves from these mailing lists at any time by following the link provided in every newsletter that points users to the subscription management page. If for some reason you are not able to unsubscribe using the automated link, you may send an e-mail message to feedback@ametv.org and request that you be removed from one or all distribution lists and that request will be promptly honored.

2. Interactive Community (Message Boards/Forums) Policy

Users who wish to post comments or messages in the site's Interactive Community must validate their e-mail address by clicking on the validation link in the confirmation e-mail sent when upon registration. Both registration and validation are completely free of charge. During registration the user is required to supply a username, password, and email address. Validation is required to protect our online community; Only users who have valid e-mail addresses may post to our Community. This assures no one will be giving false e-mail addresses and posting inappropriate or abusive comments. Users who post such comments and messages are subject to immediate removal from the Community and revocation of their Free Pass account.

3. "E-mail this to a friend"

Our site users can choose to electronically forward a link, page, or documents to someone else by clicking the "e-mail this to a friend" link. The user must provide their email address, as well as that of the recipient. This information is used only in the case of transmission errors and, of course, to let the recipient know who sent the email. The information is not used for any other purpose.

4. Polling

AMETV.org offers a daily interactive poll to users so they can easily share their opinions with other users and see what our audience thinks about important issues and topics. Opinions or other responses to polls are aggregated and are not identifiable to any particular user. We utilize a system to "tag" users after they have voted, so they can vote only once on a particular question. This tag is not correlated with information about individual users and cannot be tracked.

5. Surveys

AMETV.org may occasionally conduct user surveys to better target our content to our audience. We sometimes share the aggregated demographic information in these surveys with our sponsors, advertisers and partners. We never share any of this information about specific individuals with any third party.

6. Children

Consistent with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), we will never knowingly request personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13 without requesting parental consent.

7. Usage tracking

AMETV.org tracks user traffic patterns throughout all of our sites. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. AMETV.org does break down overall usage statistics according to a user's domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user's browser). AMETV.org sometimes tracks and catalogs the search terms that users enter in our Search function, but this tracking is never associated with individual users. We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic and click throughs to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better online community for you.

8. Cookies

We may place a text file called a "cookie" in the browser files of your computer. The use of cookies allows the site to “remember” you if you so choose so you do not have to enter your login information each time you return to AMETV.org. The cookie itself does not contain Personal Information although it will enable us to relate your use of this site to information that you have specifically and knowingly provided. But the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. AMETV.org uses cookies to track user traffic patterns (as described above). You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. If you've set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie. You do not need to have cookies turned on to use this site. However, you do need cookies to participate actively in message boards, forums, polling and surveys.
