ZOOM Privacy Policy

Effective as of August 15, 2006

ZOOM License is administrated by Isolation Network, Inc. (d/b/a "INgrooves") and the Wedding & Event Videographer Association ("WEVA") and is designed as an online registry of music synchronized to images by professional videographers.

We are committed to protecting your privacy and respect your privacy concerns. Ensuring your understanding of how we collect, use and maintain your information is important to ZOOM. In short, this privacy policy is intended to explain our privacy practices and inform you as to:

  • the types of information we collect from you and how that information is collected;
  • how we use such information;
  • the circumstances under which we disclose such information to others;
  • the choices you have regarding our use of, and your ability to modify, such information; and
  • the mechanisms we have implemented designed to protect your personally identifiable information.

Information We Collect

We collect information about you when you visit and use our site and services (collectively, the "Site"), and particularly when you enter or input information, whether during the course of entering, initiating, fulfilling and transmitting information or otherwise in connection with your general activities and/or use of the Site. You can visit the Site and learn about ZOOM, our related products and services, and find out how to contact us without giving us any personally identifiable information.

We collect personally identifiable information from you in a variety of contexts. For example, you may be required to provide such information to us if you: (1) complete an online registration form (e.g., various sign-up forms for receiving email newsletters, registering for special offers, promotions or programs, registering for an account, entering a contest/sweepstakes or responding to a survey); (2) fill out an order form to request information; (3) register to participate in message boards and chat rooms (if any) and other community features; or (4) purchase any products or services from us or any other Dimensional businesses. Such information may include your name, email address, mailing address and zip code, phone number, and, where appropriate, a valid credit card number with expiration date. Of course, you never have to answer any of the questions we ask you (nor choose to view or listen to any multimedia content or otherwise interact with our Site), but refusal to do so may limit the products or services we can offer or provide to you.

We automatically track certain information based upon your use of the Site. We use this information on an aggregated basis to conduct internal research on our users' demographics, interests, and preferences, and to improve the Site and user experience. This information may include the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on the Site or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on the Site or not), your computer browser information, and your IP address.

We use data collection devices such as "cookies" (small text files that are placed on your computer's hard drive for record-keeping purposes) to assist us in providing our services. Cookies make using the Site easier by, among other things, saving your passwords and preferences for you, helping identify you whenever you return to our Site, and reducing the number of times you are required to enter your password during a session. Cookies can also help us provide information that is targeted toward your interests and preferences. Most Internet browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. However, you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to alert you when a cookie is being sent (note: you may need to consult your browser's "Help" area for instructions on how to do that). If you choose to disable your cookies setting or refuse to accept a cookie, you may not be able to use certain features on the Site and you may be required to reenter your password more frequently during a session.

If you choose to post messages to our message boards, chat rooms or other message areas or leave feedback for other users, we will collect that information you provide to us. We retain this information as necessary to resolve disputes, provide customer support and troubleshoot problems, and as otherwise permitted by law.

If you send us personal correspondence, such as emails or letters, or if other users or third parties send us correspondence about your activities or postings on the Site, we may collect such information into a file specific to you.

Our Use of Your Information

We use your information to facilitate the provision of services you request. When you purchase products or services from ZOOM, we will use your personally identifiable information to process and fulfill your order and for customer service purposes. Many online customers are particularly concerned about their credit card information, which we will share only as required by companies involved in your transaction (e.g., fulfillment, billing, mailing, storage or delivery services). We will not share your credit card information with any other company or third party unless that company needs the number for the fulfillment or delivery of your order. We do not rent, sell or share credit card information with promotional partners or other third parties.

Privacy Policy

We may also use the information we collect about you to analyze Site usage, improve our content and product offerings, customize the Site's content, layout, and services, update you about our products or services, or to contact you about exciting offers of new products or services that we believe may be of interest to you. You always have the option to receive fewer or no communications in the future from us by opting out. You may opt out by following the instructions included in the specific communication you no longer wish to receive or by sending an email at any time to contact@zoomlicense.com and explaining how you would like to modify your preferences.

Our Disclosure of Your Information

We may make your information available to others:

  • Who provide information, products, goods or services that you have requested via the Site;

Safeguarding Your Personally Identifiable Information

We follow generally accepted industry security standards designed to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access to and disclosure and use of such information. When you provide credit card information, we use secure socket layer (SSL) encryption for that data.

For Parents Concerning the Privacy of Information on Their Children

We are a general audience site that does not knowingly collect data or accept registrations from children under 13 years of age. Currently, we do not collect any age-specific data on our site. Furthermore, our site is primarily targeted to adults as evidenced by our requirement that all registered subscribers provide a valid credit card number. If, in the future, we decide to collect any age-specific data on our site, we will, at a minimum, take reasonable steps to ensure that any users who may be under 13 years of age (and who attempt to complete the registration process on our site) are directed to another site which specifically complies with the requirements of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, or COPPA.

You should be aware that when you voluntarily disclose personally identifiable information (for example, your name, street address, email address, or telephone number) to your profile or on any message boards, chat rooms or instant messaging services, that information can be read, collected and used by other users of these services and may result in unsolicited messages, both commercial and otherwise.
