Notice About Minors
The Services are directed to a general audience; they are not directed to children under the age of 13. We restrict registration for all our Services to individuals age 18 and above (or the age of majority, as determined by the laws of the state in which you reside, whichever is older). If you are under 18 years old (“Minor”), you must have an Authorized Representative register on your behalf. Only Authorized Representatives may create accounts, maintain Account Profiles, and utilize the Services on behalf of Minors. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under 18 years of age. If you become aware that anyone under 18 has provided us with personal information, please contact us as set forth in Section 9, Contacting Us. If we obtain actual knowledge that we have received information from someone under 18, we will take steps to block that child from accessing our Services and remove that user’s personal information from our systems. Under applicable European Data Privacy Laws, children ages 13 to 16 may provide valid consent to process their personal information. Where consent is required under such European Data Privacy Laws, you have the obligation to provide to us evidence of such consent or, as required under the European Data Privacy Laws, the authorization of the holder of parental responsibility for the child. We may refuse to process, or to continue to process, the child’s personal information until we receive this evidence of consent or authorization.

Notice to Authorized Representatives
Each agency, management company and/or individual agent and/or manager engaged by the agency or management company to act on behalf of the Talent (“Talent Representative”), and parents or legal guardians of Minors (collectively referred to as “Authorized Representative”), represent that the Authorized Representative is legally authorized to represent the Talent in connection with the Services, have obtained any required consent from the Talent, and will utilize all aspects of the applicable Services on behalf of the Talent in accordance this Privacy Policy. Authorized Representatives agree to stop using the Services immediately when such authority or consent from Talent is no longer effective. We are not obligated but reserve the right at any time to require evidence of an Authorized Representative’s authority to enter into this Privacy Policy and act on behalf of Talent in connection with the applicable Services, including consent of Talent to share personal information on their behalf. If we become aware that someone other than an Authorized Representative has established, edited or otherwise modified in any way an Account Profile or Resume of a Talent, we will take steps to terminate the account and remove any corresponding information within our control. Authorized Representatives are solely responsible for their acts or omissions in connection with the Services and indemnify CN for any claims or liabilities of any kind for their unauthorized or unlawful acts.

Usage Data may be collected from the devices you use to access our Services for a variety of reasons including system administration, to prevent fraudulent activity or improve security, to assess the performance of our Services, and to tell us, for example, the website you were visiting before you came to the Services and the website you visit after you leave the Services, whether you have visited the Services before or if you are a new visitor and to help us identify the features in which you may have the greatest interest. Keep in mind that certain features of our Services are available only through the use of tracking technologies, and disabling them may impact the functionality of our Services. We may combine the information collected from you with other information collected through tracking technology.

Interacting with or Viewing Third-Party Content or Advertisements

That site may request cookies or use tracking technology. These third parties may use personal information collected from your device to serve you targeted advertising or content.

EXAMPLES OF TRACKING TOOLS
Cookies
A cookie is a data file placed on a device when the device is used to visit the Services. We use cookies to collect information for record-keeping purposes and to make it easier to navigate the Services. Cookies are stored on users’ hard drives. We use both “session ID cookies” and “persistent cookies.” Session ID cookies are used to store information while a user is logged into the Services and expire when the user closes his/her browser. Persistent cookies are used to make tasks like logging into the Services easier for returning users by remembering a user’s login information. Persistent cookies stay on a user’s hard drive from one session to the next. Cookies may be used for many purposes including, without limitation, remembering you and your preferences and tracking your visits to our web pages. You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a persistent or session ID cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off such cookies through your browser settings. Every browser is a little different, so refer to your browser’s Help menu for the correct way to modify your cookies. However, cookie management tools provided by your browser will not remove Flash cookies. To learn how to manage privacy and storage settings for Flash cookies, please click here. If you choose to disable cookies on your device, some features of the Services may not function properly.

Web Beacons/GIFS
Small graphic images or other web programming code called web beacons (also known as “1×1 GIFs” or “clear GIFs”) may be included in our web pages and messages. Web beacons may be invisible to you, but any electronic image or other web programming code inserted into a web page or e-mail can act as a web beacon. Web beacons or similar technologies may be used for a number of purposes including, without limitation, to count visitors to our Services, to monitor how users navigate the Services, to count how many sent e-mails were actually opened, or to count how many particular articles or links were actually viewed.

Embedded Scripts
An embedded script is programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with the Services, such as the links you click on. The code downloads temporarily onto the device you use to access Services from our web server or third-party service provider. It is active only while you are connected to the Services, and is deactivated or deleted after that.

HTML5
We may use HTML5 in some of our Services, including in our mobile website. HTML5 has browser web storage that does not rely on traditional browser cookies. Like Flash cookies, HTML5 cookies are not stored in a browser “cookies” file and, like Flash cookies, can be used to track users across websites. To our knowledge, there is currently no known way for a user of a mobile device to remove HTML5 tracking and storage.

E-tags, Cache Browsers, and Web Logs
Like most standard website servers, we log IP addresses (a unique number assigned to every computer on the Internet) and device identifier to improve security, analyze trends, and administer the Services. We may track your movement within the Services, the pages from which you were referred, access times, and browser types. This information may include the browser you are using, the Internet address from which you linked to our Services, the operating system of your computer, the unique IP address of the computer or device identifier of the mobile device that you used to access our Services, and usage and browsing habits. We use this information in the aggregate to gauge the effectiveness, usage, and popularity of our Services, track information for statistical purposes, help diagnose and troubleshoot server malfunctions, analyze trends, track user movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information. We may also use individual information we collect through web logs to send you targeted offers and other communications.

5. HOW WE USE AND SHARE YOUR INFORMATION

How We Process Database Information About You
The Services are designed for networking, which enables Industry Professionals to search for you, view your Resume, and contact you or your Authorized Representative. For example, personal information on your Resume may be visible to casting directors who are searching the database for new Talent or Talent Representatives who are searching for their own Talent accounts. Please remember that any information you disclose on your Resume may be accessed, used, and stored by Industry Professionals, and redistributed to others in any manner. We attempt to limit access to our searchable database to legitimate Industry Professionals, but we do not do background checks of our members and cannot guarantee who might gain access to the Services. Nor do we have control over how those users may use your personal information. Therefore, there is no expectation of privacy when posting, or otherwise participating in the Services. You expressly and voluntarily accept and agree to the processing of the information as set forth in this Privacy Policy. If at any time you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, you must cancel your account by following the instructions in Section 7, Choice and Opt-outs.
We have the right, but not the obligation, to monitor any activity and content associated with the database or other Services. We reserve the right to take action in connection with any content or action we deem to be inappropriate. Please review our Terms for more information regarding your appropriate use of the Services. We use your personal information for the following key purposes:

Where required under applicable data privacy laws, we will not send you marketing communications without your prior consent.

• For legal purposes: We may use and share personal information for legal purposes, including financial, regulatory, tax and other legal obligations, and to respond to governmental or regulatory requests or subpoenas or for litigation purposes.
• For our legitimate business interests and those of a third party: We may use your personal information to manage our legal, regulatory, financial and business requirements, including obtaining legal advice, in the course of disputes and litigation, internal and/or regulatory investigations.
• For our business purposes: We may use your personal information to help us efficiently operate the Services, to count and recognize visitors to the website, to enable certain features on the website and for other purposes related to managing our business.
• For other purposes: Subject to applicable law, we may use your personal information for additional purposes in connection with the Services, where you have provided your prior consent.

Information Posted Through the Services
The Services offer you the opportunity to communicate with Industry Professionals for you and Industry Professionals to share Resumes and other content. For example, if an Industry Professional posts an audition video in which you appear on the Services, it may be viewed by users of the Services and forwarded to others outside the Services. We have no control over what others may post or how those users may use the information. Therefore, you should exercise caution and discretion when using our Services or allowing your Authorized Representative to participate on your behalf.

Personalized URL Link to Your Online Resume
You may opt-in to create a personalized URL link to your online Resume by logging in to your account and clicking “Resume Link” from the Resume drop-down menu.

For example, financial information you provide will be disclosed to our payment processor to process credit card transactions. In this case, established third-party bank processing agents and distribution institutions handle these transactions. They receive the information needed to verify and authorize your credit card or other payment information to process your order. We may disclose information to third parties to verify the authenticity of any financial transaction involving our company or its affiliates or subsidiaries or to update your billing information. We do not store any credit, debit card or financial or bank account information we receive from our payment processor, except for the last four digits of your credit card, card type and billing address for verification purposes.

Co-branded Areas
Certain areas of our Services may be provided to you in association with third parties who provide us specialized content or offer products or services (“Co-Branded Areas”), which identify the third party. If you elect to interact with or register for the products and/or services provided in these Co-Branded Areas, you either will be providing the information you share to us and/or the third party, or we might be providing your personal information directly to the third party. Therefore, your personal information will be subject to this Privacy Policy as well as the privacy policy and practices of such third party. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and we suggest you review the respective privacy policies of those third parties to learn more about their privacy practices.

Sharing with Affiliates and Marketing Partners

The authentication of your Social Network login credentials is conducted solely by your Social Network. By connecting your Social Network account with our Services and authorizing us to have access to the information, you agree that we may collect, use, and store Permitted Social Network Content across all our Services and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Any information or content you or other users post when participating in social networks, plug-ins or other services that link to our Services becomes public information and is subject to redistribution by third parties or us. Our Services may also provide the ability for you to make announcements regarding auditions or jobs, or invite people to join the Services via email, SMS, or social media platforms. Many of those communications will list your name and email address in the header of the message. Once you have connected with an individual, your contact information will be shared with that individual.

Aggregate and Analyze Information
We use aggregate information about our users and other non-personal information to analyze the Services and user behavior. We may combine or supplement the information you give us with information we collect from other sources and use it for any purpose disclosed in this Privacy Policy.

Our application Services may include a function that allows us to use push notifications to send you updates, communications, and other messages about the Services. We do not send promotional messages about other products or services through these push notifications.

Legal Matters; Safety
We may, without your consent, access and disclose your information, any communications sent or received by you, and any other information that we may have about you or your account as may be permitted or required by law or by any government regulatory authority, or to prevent or investigate suspected fraud, violations of our Terms, or activity that appears to us to be illegal or may expose us to legal liability. Any disputes under this Privacy Policy will be resolved in accordance with the binding arbitration process outlined in the Terms. Additionally, we may disclose your information in situations that we believe may involve potential threats to the physical safety of any person or property.

8. IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES

Security
CN uses a third party to process its credit card payment transactions. When you place an order for a paid service at CN, your credit card information is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (“SSL”) protocol. We also implement security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. However, no security system is 100% secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the security of any information provided to us in connection with the information that we collect.

Your California Privacy Rights
California Civil Code Section 1798.83, known as the “Shine the Light” law, permits California residents to request and obtain a list of what personal information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year and the names and addresses of those third parties.

Your European Privacy Rights
The European Data Privacy Laws give you certain additional rights regarding information held about you. Your right of access can be exercised in accordance with the European Data Privacy Laws. If you would like to request a copy of your personal information being held by us, or request that it be deleted or to update and/or correct your personal information or request that we provide a copy to another data controller of your personal information that you have provided to us, please contact us. We will need enough information to ascertain your identity as well as the nature of your request. We will aim to respond to your request within one calendar month of receipt of the request. Where we were unable to do so within the calendar month, we will notify you of the soonest practicable time within which we can respond to your request. There are certain exemptions and restrictions of these rights under the European Data Privacy Laws that enable personal information to be retained, processed or withheld from access, and we will inform you of these if applicable.

Storage and Retention
Personally identifiable and other information that you provide to us in the course of participating in the Services may be gathered and stored in one or more of our corporate databases. We may retain information from canceled accounts to comply with law, prevent fraud, assist with investigations, resolve disputes, analyze or troubleshoot programs, enforce our Terms, or take other actions permitted by law. We may also retain information to prevent re- registration in the event that your account has been suspended or terminated or to create an archival copy of your information, which might be used by us for recordkeeping and internal purposes. We will retain your information for the period of time necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is permitted or required by law. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and applicable legal requirements.

Jurisdiction and Cross-Border Issues
Our Services are available in the United States and intended for use by account holders located in the United States only. We do not represent or warrant that our Services are appropriate or available for use in any particular jurisdiction. Those who choose to access the Services do so on their own initiative and at their own risk, and are responsible for complying with all local laws, rules and regulations. We may limit access to our Services, in whole or in part, to any person, geographic area or jurisdiction we choose, at any time and in our sole discretion. By using our Services and submitting any personal information, you consent to the transfer of personal information to other countries, which may provide a level of data security different from your country of residence. You are also consenting to the application of United States law in all matters concerning the Services. In accordance with the European Data Privacy Laws, the personal information that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the UK/European Economic Area (“EEA”) and processed by our staff or suppliers operating in the United States and India, both of which have less stringent data protection laws compared to the UK/EEA. Such staff may be engaged in, among other things, the fulfillment of your order, the processing of your payment details, and the provision of support services including photo processing. By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing of your personal information. Where appropriate, we use the standard contractual clauses in the form approved by the European Commission to protect your personal information when it is transferred outside the UK/EEA.

No Rights of Third Parties
This Privacy Policy does not create rights enforceable by third parties or require disclosure of any personal information relating to users of the Services.

Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. You agree that we may notify you about material changes in the way we treat personal information by posting a revised Privacy Policy on the Services via a link, with the “Effective Date” posted at the top of the Policy. You should check the Services frequently for updates. By accessing the Services after the Effective Date, you are deemed to consent to our then-current Privacy Policy.
