MovieFlix.com has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this Web site: http://www.movieflix.com/.
Information Collected
Our site's basic registration form allows users to sign up for free and become MovieFlix basic members who have access to a portion of our film library. We may use this form to collect information that can identify you ("personal data"), including but not limited to your name and email address. We may share personal data with companies that may email you offers for third party products, services, and promotions. At the user's request, we use the contact information from the registration form to send the user information about our company and to notify them of new movies and features. In addition, we may share personal data with companies that may email you offers for third party products, services, and promotions. The customer's contact information is also used to contact them when necessary, such as notification of prize giveaways.
We also have a registration form that allows users to access MovieFlix Plus movies for a monthly subscription fee. In addition to the information previously collected, this form also collects financial information (like credit card number and expiration date) in order to bill the customer for the upgrade service. If we have trouble processing an order, the contact information is used to get in touch with the user. We use a credit card processing company to bill users for MovieFlix Plus. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
Demographic and profile data (like zip code, gender, connection speed, etc.) are also collected and used on our site. We use this data to tailor the visitor's experience on our site, showing them content that we think they might be interested in, and displaying the content according to their preferences. We may also share this demographic information with third parties and other companies that may email you offers for third party products, services, and promotions. If you require additional information about this policy from MovieFlix.com please refer to http://www.movieflix.com/contact_us.php.
Though we make every effort to preserve your privacy we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our Web site.
If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a friend about our site, we ask them for the friend's name and email address. MovieFlix will automatically send the friend a one-time email inviting them to visit the site. MovieFlix stores this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email. This email will not be used by MovieFlix for any other purpose. The friend may contact MovieFlix at info@MovieFlix.com to request the removal of this information from our database.
We may use your information to:
* Fulfill your requests for products and services;
* Offer products and services that may be of interest to you;

Log Files
Like most standard web site servers we use log files. This includes IP (internet protocol) addresses, browser type, ISP (internet service provider), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and # of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. Log files are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Cookies
We use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests and to save your password so you don't have to re-enter it each time you visit our site.
MovieFlix.com does not receive any information about you from these cookies. Some of our business partners use cookies on our site (for example, advertisers). However, we have no access to or control over these cookies, once we have given permission for them to set advertisements on our site.
Links
This web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we MovieFlix.com is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site. In addition, some portions of our web site are framed to look like our web site however the information is being collected by another web site.
Security
This site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. This website takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When users submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both on-line and off-line.
When our order form asks users to enter sensitive information such as a credit card number, that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just 'surfing'.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information on-line, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Our employees must use password-protected screen-savers when they leave their desk. When they return, they must re-enter their password to re-gain access to your information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Every quarter, as well as any time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our customers' information is protected. Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment, behind a locked cage.
If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send an email to info@MovieFlix.com.
Choice/Opt-out
Our site provides users the opportunity to opt-out of receiving communications from us at the point where we request information about the visitor by un-checking the "request MovieFlix news" notify box. MovieFlix.com gives users the opportunity to opt-out or unsubscribe from MovieFlix news. Our site lets users unsubscribe to MovieFlix news by sending us email at help@MovieFlix.com.
Change/Modify
If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as your zip code, email or postal address), or if a user no longer desires our service, we provide a way to correct, update or delete/deactivate that user's personally identifiable information provided to us. This can usually be done by emailing our Customer Support at help@MovieFlix.com. Or, you may contact us by telephone or postal mail at the contact information listed below.
Off-Site Security Measures
MovieFlix.com's privacy policy is reviewed on a monthly basis with all employees. Access to data is obtained via secure passwords. Access to data is only limited to two (2) people responsible for privacy.
Notification of Changes
From time to time, we may update our privacy policy. If material changes are made in our collection or sharing of your personal data, we will notify you by posting the revised privacy policy here on our website.
