SUN SPORTS AND FSN FLORIDA PRIVACY POLICY
Sunshine Network, Inc., a Florida corporation ("Sunshine") and FSN Florida are both part of the News America Group.
News America Group has adopted a set of Privacy Principles applicable to all its U.S.-based companies (available at http://www.newscorp.com/privacy.html).
Sunshine and FSN Florida have implemented those Principles in this Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use and share personally
identifiable information ("PII") we obtain from and about individuals located in the U.S. Sunshine and FSN Florida operates general audience websites, and does not knowingly collect PII from children under 13 years of age.
From time to time Sunshine and FSN Florida may revise this Privacy Policy to reflect industry initiatives or changes in the law,
our PII collection and use practices, the features of our Web sites or technology. Therefore, you should review it periodically
so that you are up to date on our most current policies and practices.
COLLECTION: COLLECTION OF PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION ("PII") BY SUNSHINE AND FSN FLORIDA
General. Sunshine and FSN Florida collect personally identifiable information ("PII" -- that is, information such as your full name, email address, mailing address or telephone number) only in order to create or enhance our relationship with you. When we collect PII from you, it is because you are voluntarily submitting the information to us in order to participate in activities like sweepstakes, contests, games, surveys, forums, subscription registrations, content or general suggestions, chats or bulletin boards, or because you want us to furnish you with products, services or information. On those occasions when we obtain PII from a third party, we use only reputable sources of such information.
Cookies. Cookies are small bits of information that the Internet sites operated by Sunshine and FSN Florida place on the hard drive of your computer. Cookies remember information about your activities on our site(s) and enable Sunshine and FSN Florida to make your visits to our site(s) more enjoyable. For example, cookies can store your password for easy logon to a site you have previously visited, can save your preferences for a personalized home page or can track the items you have placed in your "shopping cart" during a visit to our online store. The cookie itself does not contain PII, and Sunshine and FSN Florida do not combine cookies or similar tools with PII.
Third party advertisements displayed on Internet site(s) operated by Sunshine and FSN Florida may also contain cookies. Sunshine and FSN Florida do not control these advertiser cookies and visitors to our Web site(s) should check the privacy policy of the advertiser to see whether and how it uses cookies. See the "Notice" section below for more information on third party advertisements.
On occasion, Sunshine and FSN Florida may use cookies or similar tools to relate your use of our Web site(s) to personally identifiable information obtained from you or a reputable third party. For example, if you've asked us to send you information about our upcoming products or promotions, cookie and/or other information about your online activities may allow us to limit the materials we send you to items we know you will find interesting, based on your prior online activities and preferences. However, if Sunshine and FSN Florida wish to coordinate your personal and Web site activity information in this manner, we will obtain your express prior consent (i.e., "opt in").
You can program your computer to warn you each time a cookie is being sent or to refuse cookies completely. However, without cookies you may not have access to certain features on Sunshine and FSN Florida's Web site(s).
NOTICE: SUNSHINE AND FSN FLORIDA WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH NOTICE ABOUT ITS PII COLLECTION PRACTICES
When Sunshine and FSN Florida collect PII from you, we will make sure you are informed about who is collecting the information, how and why the information is being collected and the types of uses Sunshine and FSN Florida will make of the information.
This Policy describes the types of other companies that may want to send you information about their products and services and therefore may want to share your personal information (See "Use" below). However, Sunshine and FSN Florida will notify you of your options regarding our use of your personally identifiable information, including whether we can share it with outside companies, before we use it for a purpose other than the one for which it was originally collected or disclose it to third parties, typically at the time of collection (See "Choice" below).
Sometimes we collect PII from consumers in manual format, such as a post card or subscription form. Providing detailed notice in those situations often proves impractical, so consumers will instead be provided with a short notice that describes how to obtain the full text of this Policy and other relevant information from us.
Sunshine and FSN Florida's Web site(s) may be linked to Internet sites operated by other companies. Some of these third party sites may be co-branded with a Sunshine or FSN Florida logo, even though they are not operated or maintained by Sunshine and FSN Florida (for example, the co-sponsored chat pages, or advertising sponsor pages). Sunshine and FSN Florida's Web site(s) also carry advertisements from other companies as well as advertisements placed by national Internet ad agencies. Although we choose our business partners and advertisers carefully, Sunshine and FSN Florida are not responsible for the privacy practices of Web sites operated by third parties that are linked to our site[s] or for the privacy practices of third party or so-called national internet advertising companies. Once you've left a Sunshine and FSN Florida site via such a link or by clicking on an advertisement, you should check the applicable privacy policy of the third party or advertiser site to determine how they will handle any PII they collect from you.
Some of the advertisements that appear on Sunshine and FSN Florida's Web site(s) are delivered to you by national Internet advertising companies such as Doubleclick or 24/7Real Media. These companies may utilize certain technologies to deliver advertisements and marketing messages and to collect anonymous information about your visit to our site[s], including information about the banner ads they display, any cookie they place on your computer and your IP address. To opt out of information collection by these companies, or to obtain information about the technologies they use or their own privacy policies, please visit their Web sites by clicking on their respective banners.
Sunshine and FSN Florida's Web site(s) may also be linked to sites operated by companies affiliated with Sunshine and FSN Florida. Visitors to those affiliated sites should still refer to their separate privacy policies and practices, which may differ in some respects from this Policy.
USE: SUNSHINE & FSN FLORIRDA'S USE OF PII
Sunshine and FSN Florida will use your PII in a manner that is consistent with this Policy and only for the purpose for which it is submitted, unless other uses are disclosed and you allow us to use your information in these other ways.
Sunshine and FSN Florida may share your PII with companies that are affiliated with us, that is, are part of the News America Group of companies. Sunshine and FSN Florida may also share your PII with companies that are not affiliated with Sunshine or FSN Florida, but would like to send you information about their products and services. For example, some of the companies who supply prizes for Sunshine and FSN Florida's sweepstakes may have special offers or promotions that might be of interest to Sunshine and FSN Florida viewers. However, you will always have the opportunity to instruct us not to share your information with third parties.
Sunshine and FSN Florida employees, agents and contractors must have a legitimate business reason to obtain access to your PII. Outside contractors or agents who help us manage our information activities (i.e., sweepstakes administration, order fulfillment, statistical analyses) may only use PII to provide Sunshine and FSN Florida with a specific service and not for any other purpose.
If Sunshine and FSN Florida obtain PII from a third party, such as a business partner, our use of this information is governed by this Policy.
There may be instances when Sunshine and FSN Florida may disclose PII without providing you with a choice in order to protect the legal rights of Sunshine and FSN Florida, other companies within the News America Group or their employees, agents and contractors; to protect the safety and security of visitors to our Web sites; to protect against fraud or for risk management purposes; or to comply with the law or legal process. In addition, if Sunshine or FSN Florida sells all or part of its business or makes a sale or transfer of assets or is otherwise involved in a merger or business transfer, Sunshine and FSN Florida may transfer your PII to a third party as part of that transaction.
CHOICE: SUNSHINE AND FSN FLORIDA WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH CHOICES ABOUT THE USE OF YOUR PII
Sunshine and FSN Florida will provide you with the opportunity to choose whether your PII may be used for purposes different from the purpose for which it was submitted. You will also be able to choose whether your information is shared with companies that are not affiliated with Sunshine and FSN Florida (i.e., not part of the News America Group).
