Beat Authority is committed to protecting your privacy and developing technology that gives you the most powerful and safe online experience. This Statement of Privacy applies to the Beat Authority Web site and governs data collection and usage. By using the Beat Authority website, you consent to the data practices described in this statement.

Collection of your Personal Information

Beat Authority collects personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail address, name, home or work address or telephone number. Beat Authority also collects anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP code, age, gender, preferences, interests and favorites.

There is also information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically collected by Beat Authority. This information can include: your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring Web site addresses. This information is used by Beat Authority for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the Beat Authority Web site.

Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through Beat Authority public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others. Note: Beat Authority does not read any of your private online communications.

Beat Authority encourages you to review the privacy statements of Web sites you choose to link to from Beat Authority so that you can understand how those Web sites collect, use and share your information. Beat Authority is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on Web sites outside of the Beat Authority and Beat Authority family of Web sites.

Use of your Personal Information

Beat Authority collects and uses your personal information to operate the Beat Authority Web site and deliver the services you have requested. Beat Authority also uses your personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services available from Beat Authority and its affiliates. Beat Authority may also contact you via surveys to conduct research about your opinion of current services or of potential new services that may be offered.

Beat Authority does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. Beat Authority may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, Beat Authority may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to Beat Authority, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.

Beat Authority does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.

Beat Authority keeps track of the Web sites and pages our customers visit within Beat Authority, in order to determine what Beat Authority services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within Beat Authority to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

Beat Authority Web sites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on Beat Authority or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Beat Authority; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Beat Authority, or the public.

Use of Cookies

The Beat Authority Web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Beat Authority pages, or register with Beat Authority site or services, a cookie helps Beat Authority to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Beat Authority Web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Beat Authority features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Beat Authority services or Web sites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information

Beat Authority secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. Beat Authority secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other Web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

Changes to this Statement

Beat Authority will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback. Beat Authority encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed of how Beat Authority is protecting your information.
