You acknowledge that this Privacy Policy is also a part of our Sites Terms of Use, and by accessing or using our Sites, you agree to be bound by all of its terms and conditions. If at any time you find these terms and conditions unacceptable, you must immediately leave the Sites and cease all use of the Sites.

1. PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT AUTOMATICALLY FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES

(a) Traffic Data Collected. When you visit our Sites, we and our third party service providers may collect information from you through automated means, such as cookies, web beacons, and web server logs. By using the Sites, you consent to the placement of cookies, beacons, and similar technologies in your browser and on emails in accordance with this Privacy Policy. The information collected in this manner includes IP address, browser characteristics, gyroscopic position, service strength, data provider, device IDs and characteristics, country code or approximate location, operating system version, language preferences, referring URLs, and information about the usage of the Sites, such as length of time (in seconds) a user plays music, metadata (genre, artist, album, title, description, tags) and type of media.  We may use this information, for example, to ensure that the Sites function properly, to create an account on your behalf when you have not formally registered for an account, to analyze your listening behavior and preferences in order to provide you with tailored content, to determine how many users have visited certain pages or opened messages or newsletters, or to prevent fraud. We work with analytics’ providers such as Google Analytics, which uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze information about use of the Sites and report on activities and trends. This service may also collect information regarding the use of other websites, apps and online resources. You can learn about Google’s practices by going to https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/, and opt out of them by downloading the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. 

Third parties that advertise goods or services on the Sites (collectively, “Advertisers”) may also use cookies or other technologies to track your use of the Sites. Advertisers also may use cookies to track your online activities across websites over time to provide interest-based advertising. Those third parties may also provide us with data collection, reporting, ad-response measurement, analytical information, and assist with delivery of relevant marketing messages and advertisements. Some of our Advertisers are members of the Network Advertising Initiative or the Digital Advertising Alliance, or for users in the EU, the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Choice Page (http://www.youronlinechoices.eu). Please visit these organizations’ opt-out pages to learn about how you may opt out of receiving web-based personalized ads from member companies.
