Please take a minute to read the following policy
so you understand how we use the personal information we ask you to submit.
As we update and expand our services, this policy may change, so please
refer back to it periodically. If you use any of nymMEDIA's services,
you agree to these terms.
Background
When you register at nymMEDIA, we ask you for personal
information. We use this information to process your orders and to communicate
with you about the status of your orders. We use your email address to
communicate with you regarding issues with your account and for automatic
notification of certain events pertaining to your account.

Collection and Use of Information
When you come to the nymMEDIA site for the first time,
you must certify that you are at least 18 years old. (People under 18
cannot use nymMEDIA's services.)
When you register at nymMEDIA, we ask for your email
address, password, full name, telephone number and shipping address so
that we can ship your order. We provide your shipping address to the US
Post Office for delivery purposes. In case a DVD gets lost in the mail,
we will also provide your telephone number to the US Post Office when
we file a mail loss report. We use your telephone number only if there
is an order-related issue, not for marketing purposes. Our server stores
this information so that placing future orders will be quicker and easier.
We collect and store your billing address and credit
card information for the purposes of collecting your monthly membership
fee. We provide your credit card information to a credit card processing
company for authorization only. We do not provide your e-mail address
to the credit card processor.
If you want to update your address or change credit
cards, go to Your Account and make the appropriate changes. You must be
signed in to access Your Account.

You can always access the information you have provided
to nymMEDIA by going to Your Account. You can make changes to this information
to update your account anytime.

Cookies
As you browse the nymMEDIA site, cookies are
placed on your computer's hard drive. (Cookies are small pieces of data
that are sent to your browser from a Web server and stored on your hard
drive.) Cookies allow us to track the items you select as you shop, and
help us match your address and credit card information with your order
so you don't need to retype the information each time you visit our site.
If your browser is set to not accept cookies, you will
not be able to use the nymMEDIA site or service.
We do not, as many sites do, store a cookie on your
hard drive that persists for longer than your current browser session.
The drawback to this is that you will have to log in at nymMEDIA each
time you start your browser. The benefit is that no one in your household
or with access to your computer will find that they are still logged in
if they happen upon the website.

Disclosure
Except as described in this section, we will
not sell, rent or disclose your personally identifying information to
third parties without notifying you of our intent to share the information
and giving you an opportunity to prevent your information from being shared.
nymMEDIA reserves the right to disclose information
when required by law.
We also provide analyses of our users in the aggregate
to prospective partners, advertisers and other third parties. We do this
so that we and our advertisers can understand the behavior of our average
customer better, and so that we can keep bringing you first-rate services.
We may also disclose, on an anonymous basis, literal statements made by
our customers. At no time, however, will we disclose personal information
about specific users.
Customers should check back for updates to this policy.
nymMEDIA will obtain email consent from any user if the company is going
to be using the information collected in a manner different from that
stated when the user registered.

Security and Access
For transmitting your personal information to
us, we use a secure server (SSL), which encrypts all of your personal
information. This encryption process ensures that the information you
give us is protected against unauthorized access.
You can access Your Account from every page on the site
to update and correct your name, email address, password, postal address,
and credit cards. Please note that you must be signed in to nymMEDIA to
access this information. All information is password-protected so no one
can access the information but you.
We have implemented technology and security features,
as well as strict internal guidelines, to safeguard the privacy of your
personal information from unauthorized access or improper use. We will
continue to enhance our security procedures as new technology becomes
available. While we make every effort to ensure that your information
is secure on our system, no data transmission over the Internet can be
guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee the security
of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.
nymMEDIA users should not post personal information
on any review page, as this information is made public. Aliases can be
used for such postings.
