However, these companies do not have an independent right to share this information. Due to our contractual obligations with these third parties and the need to share personally identifiable information to deliver and support the Service, we cannot provide you with the opportunity to opt-out of sharing personally identifiable information with these third parties.

Your personally identifiable information may be provided to a third party if Mixercast files for bankruptcy, or there is a transfer of the assets or ownership of Mixercast.

In addition to other Users that you designate, Mixercast, its partners, and each of their contractors and employees may view the content that you upload to the Service in order to provide the Service and otherwise perform the tasks set forth in this Privacy Policy.

Attention: Privacy Manager

Other Websites and Services

Mixercast is not responsible for the privacy policies of websites and services to which the Service links, or of which the Service is a part. If you provide any information to such third parties different rules regarding the collection and use of your personal information may apply. We strongly suggest you review such third party's privacy policies before providing any data to them.

Security

Mixercast takes appropriate steps to help ensure data privacy and security including through various hardware and software methodologies. However, due to the open communication nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that communications between you and the Service, and the Service and you, will be free from unauthorized access by third parties. Users of the Service do so at their own risk. Mixercast cannot guarantee the security of any information that is disclosed online.

Promotions and Sweepstakes

If you chose to enter a promotion, sweepstakes, or contest hosted by Mixercast or sponsored by Mixercast and/or one of our partners, we (and/or our promotional partner) may ask for your name, address, email address. You may be asked to provide additional information or to answer certain questions, some of which may be optional, in order to participate. We and/or our partner may contact you in connection with a particular promotion, such as a sweepstakes or contest, in order to update you of your status, administer the promotion, let you know that a promotion has ended, and for other purposes. Promotions that are hosted on the Service may be sponsored by Mixercast, may be co-sponsored by Mixercast and another company, or may be sponsored by companies other than Mixercast. Some or all of the data collected during a promotion may be shared with the sponsor(s) or companies indicated on the entry form. We use third-party advertising companies to generate and manage some of our e-mail promotional campaigns. We may share with these companies Service usage information about those visitors to our web site who have received an e-mail as part of such promotional campaigns. This sharing is for the purpose of targeting future campaigns and upgrading visitor information used in reporting statistics.

Reasonable Efforts

We will use reasonable efforts to comply with this Privacy Policy and to take corrective action when we learn of any failure to comply with our Privacy Policy. We sometimes release beta versions of our products and services, which are further refined before the release of the final version. Because these products and services are still in a test phase, we may not always catch an unintended privacy issue, despite our efforts to do so. As such, we welcome User feedback on any privacy concerns you may have. In light of the above and because of the complex and constantly changing nature of our technology and business, and the security risks associated with using the Internet, Mixercast does not guarantee error-free performance under this Privacy Policy. To the extent permissible under law, Mixercast shall not be liable for any incidental, consequential or punitive damages relating to this Privacy Policy.

Modifications of the Privacy Policy

Mixercast reserves the rights to modify its Privacy Policy at any time and will notify you by posting an amendment to the Privacy Policy on the Service. Such modifications will become effective on the day they are posted. Mixercast encourages you to frequently review the Privacy Policy for any modifications.
