STINGRAY PRIVACY POLICY

Stingray Group Inc., together with its affiliates, subsidiaries and related entities (collectively “Stingray”) are committed to protecting your privacy. Stingray's Privacy Policy is designed to help you understand how Stingray collects, holds, uses and divulges the Information (as defined below) when you use its websites, web players, applications, widgets, products and/or services (collectively, the “Stingray Services”). By using the Stingray Services or by signing up to receive Stingray's newsletters, electronic messages, news, updates, contests, special offers and/or other written communications (the “Stingray Messages”), you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

In this Privacy Policy, “you” refers to the person using the Stingray Services if this person is 13 years old or over, or to a parent or legal guardian if the user is under the age of 13.

WHAT INFORMATION DOES STINGRAY COLLECT, HOLD, USE AND DIVULGE?

Depending on your use of the Stingray Services, Stingray may collect, hold, use and divulge the information that you knowingly choose to disclose and enter on any of the Stingray Services or that you otherwise allow Stingray to access and that can be used to identify you, such as your name, contact information, e-mail address, location, postal address, social media accounts and information about your age, your demographic information, mobile and/or computer devices (collectively, the “Information”).

You can choose not to provide certain Information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of some of the Stingray Services. You may contact Stingray as set forth in the Section "Contact Stingray about Privacy" to address any issue thereof.

Stingray also gathers and may allow third parties to collect Information, including Information which is generated by your devices or computers when you interact with the Stingray Services and/or the Stingray Messages, such as location information and IP address. See Sections "Use of Cookies " and "Online Advertising" for more information on this topic.

WHY DOES STINGRAY COLLECT AND HOLD YOUR INFORMATION?

Stingray generally collects and holds your Information to:

The legal basis for using the Information for the Purposes is typically a contractual basis (i.e. to provide you with the Stingray Services) or because you have consented to such Purposes. However, Stingray may also rely on other legal grounds, for example, where the processing is necessary for its legitimate interests or for compliance with legal obligations to which it is subject.

Stingray's software may include the opportunity to disable certain software features to increase your level of privacy. However, certain technical information (e.g., zip code) may be automatically transmitted between networked servers to authenticate access to the Stingray Services, enable their delivery, or optimize your media delivery experience.

Stingray does not rent or sell any of your Information to third parties and will not share it with third parties without your consent, unless it is necessary to do so by law or for the Purposes as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

WHEN AND HOW DOES STINGRAY SHARE YOUR INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES?

Stingray may disclose your Information to its partners and licensors to the extent such disclosure is required for the Purposes. Stingray may use third parties to facilitate its business, such as payment processors, hosting services providers, contractors for sending out e-mail updates about Stingray and the Stingray Services or for providing customer support services. In connection with these business operations, Stingray's contractors and service providers may have access to your Information collected by Stingray for use for a limited time in connection with these business activities. Where Stingray utilizes third parties for the processing of any Information, Stingray implements reasonable contractual and technical protections in order for such third parties to keep all Information they process strictly confidential. Please note that these third parties may be located in other countries where the laws on processing personal information can differ from the laws of your country of residence.

Stingray may also disclose your Information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform with the law; (b) comply with the order of a competent judicial authority in any jurisdiction; (c) comply with legal process served on Stingray; (d) protect and defend the rights or property of Stingray; (e) enforce or verify your compliance with any part of the agreements that you enter into with Stingray, if any; (f) prevent fraud or other illegal activity perpetrated through the Stingray Services; or (g) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of the Stingray Services or the public at large.

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND PLATFORMS

The Stingray Services may contain links to other websites, applications or platforms. Please read the privacy policies of these third-party websites, applications or platforms that collect personally identifiable information in order to understand their privacy policies and data collection practices. This Privacy Policy applies solely to Information collected and processed by Stingray or on its behalf.

The Stingray Services may sometimes offer you the possibility to post and share information regarding your activity on the Stingray Services, including without limitation recordings of your renditions made through the applicable Stingray Services (the “Content”), to journals, blogs, message boards, classifieds or any other form of social media platform or public forum. The use of such information that you choose to post or share will be governed by the privacy policies of such third parties. When this functionality is available, you may choose to link your Stingray Services account to your social media accounts (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Google+), in which event you consent to the sharing of your Information from your social media accounts to Stingray and to having your activity on the Stingray Services automatically shared on your social media accounts timeline and/or profile pages. You can disconnect your Stingray account from your social media accounts by signing into your Stingray account and selecting “Social” in Account Settings and toggling the “Connected” button to “Unconnected”. You can also turn off “Sharing” by toggling the “Sharing” button to “off”.

Children under the age of 13 will not have the possibility to share their Content through the Stingray Services without your prior consent. Once you consent to the sharing of the children’s Content, this feature will be available for all the Content generated, including the Content generated prior to your consent, until you disactivate the functionality via the Account Settings or by contacting Stingray as set forth in the Section “Contact Stingray about Privacy”.

For the avoidance of doubt, you acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for any use by any third-party of the information and/or Content that you decide to post or share, for yourself or the children under the age of 13, on any journals, blogs, message boards, classifieds or any other form of social media platform or public forum using a functionality offered on the Stingray Services.

HOW LONG WILL STINGRAY KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

Stingray will retain your Information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the Purposes for which it was collected, or as required for Stingray’s legitimate interests, or to comply with applicable legal, tax or regulatory requirements. After such time, any Information held by Stingray will be destroyed, deleted or made anonymous.

HOW DOES STINGRAY PROTECT THE CHILDREN’S PRIVACY?

Except as otherwise provided for a specific Stingray Service, the Stingray Services are only available for individuals aged 13 years or older. Stingray does not knowingly collect, hold, use or divulge any Information from children under the age of 13, unless a parent or legal guardian has consented to it. If you believe that Information has been collected from children under the age of 13 without your prior consent, you may contact Stingray as set forth in the Section “Contact Stingray about Privacy”.

STINGRAY MESSAGES

If you have consented to receive such information, Stingray may send Stingray Messages to you about the Stingray Services, and/or about products and/or services of its partners and licensors. Separate Stingray Services and lines of business may send separate Stingray Messages. You may opt-out of receiving Stingray Messages as set forth in the Section “Contact Stingray about Privacy”, or through the Preference Center accessible via the Stingray Messages footer. However, Stingray may continue to send you Stingray Messages to inform you about available upgrades or critical technical service issues relating to a Stingray Service that you requested or purchased, or to provide you with important information on your account.

SECURITY OF INFORMATION

Stingray takes appropriate precautions to protect your Information. Stingray uses physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with applicable regulations to protect your Information.

USE OF COOKIES

A cookie is a small text file that is stored in a dedicated location on your computer, mobile device, tablet or other device when you use your browser to visit an online service. Other tracking technologies, such as web beacons, tracking pixels and mobile identifiers may be used for similar purposes. In this Privacy Policy, all of these tracking technologies are collectively referred to as “Cookies”.

Stingray uses essential Cookies which are required for optimum operation of the Stingray Services, and which cannot be configured or opted out. In particular, such essential Cookies are used to authenticate users of the Stingray Services, to remember users’ custom preferences, to offer users the key functions of the Stingray Services, to authorize access to certain premium or trial content and product features, and to secure the Stingray Services against any attempted fraud.

Stingray and/or its third-party partners also use non-essential Cookies in connection with the Stingray Services and the Stingray Messages. Such non-essential Cookies may be used to provide you with a tailored experience when visiting the Stingray Services, to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of interest to you, to analyze advertising conversion rates and monetization rates, to understand traffic patterns on the Stingray Services, to help measure and improve the effectiveness of the Stingray Messages and to determine whether such messages have been opened and links clicked on.

Non-essential Cookies can be managed and/or disabled through your browser’s cookie settings, mobile device’s advertising settings and, in the case of the Stingray Messages, through the Preference Center. If you refuse Cookies, you may not be able to use all of the features of the Stingray Services, and you will still be served with advertising, but such advertising will no longer be as tailored to you.

If you want more information about how to manage and/or disable non-essential Cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/ and http://www.networkadvertising.org/. To opt out of being tracked by Google Analytics, visit http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Any Information collected with Cookies by Stingray or on its behalf are treated with the same level of confidentiality as any other Information held by Stingray.

ONLINE ADVERTISING

When you interact with the Stingray Services and/or the Stingray Messages, Stingray and/or its third-party partners may collect and use certain of your Information, to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of interest to you. Such information may include Information collected with non-essential Cookies as set forth above in the Section “Use of Cookies” and/or Information concerning your age and gender, and other similar information that you have provided to Stingray.

In no event will Stingray permit advertising directed at children where it has actual knowledge that the user is under the age of 13.

To learn more about Stingray’s advertising practices, please contact Stingray as set forth in the Section “Contact Stingray about Privacy”.

DO NOT TRACK

Web browsers can transmit Do Not Track (“DNT”) signals that indicate that a user does not wish to have his/her activity tracked over time and across websites. Currently, no universally accepted standard exists for how to interpret such signals, although work to create consensus is ongoing. Accordingly, and because Stingray does not track its users over time and across third-party websites, Stingray does not respond to such DNT signals.

CHANGES TO STINGRAY'S PRIVACY POLICY

Stingray frequently revises this Privacy Policy to keep it up to date with applicable legislation and the Stingray Services. Updated notices may be used to alert users to recent changes and to the date of the last update, but the posting of the revised Privacy Policy on the Stingray Services shall be considered sufficient notice to you. Unless stated otherwise, Stingray's current Privacy Policy applies to all Information that Stingray has about you.

FAILURE TO COMPLY

Stingray will take prompt corrective action when it learns of any failure to comply with this Privacy Policy. Stingray shall not be liable for any incidental, consequential or punitive damages relating to this Privacy Policy.

You may file a complaint with a competent authority at any time if you believe that Stingray is not processing your Information in a manner that is compliant with this Privacy Policy or with the applicable laws.

STORAGE AND INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF YOUR INFORMATION

By using the Stingray Services, you are consenting to have your Information transferred to and processed in Canada, the United States and/or the United Kingdom. Your Information will be held by Stingray in Canada, the United States and/or the United Kingdom. The European Commission has recognized Canada and the United States (limited to the Privacy Shield framework) as providing adequate protection to personal data. As a result, Stingray may transfer your Information from the European Economic Area (“EEA”) to these countries without any further safeguard being necessary. Stingray may also subcontract processing to, or share your Information with third parties located in other countries, including countries other than your home country. In such case, Stingray will ensure that your Information is transferred to countries that have received an adequacy decision from the European Commission, or that your Information is adequately protected by appropriate technical, organizational, contractual or other lawful means.

If you would like to obtain more information on these security measures, please contact Stingray as set forth in the Section “Contact Stingray about Privacy”.
