At SendtoNews Video Incorporated (referred to as "SendtoNews", "we", "us or "our", below), we own and operate the SendtoNews.com website (the "Website"). We respect and are committed to protecting your privacy, and we support a general policy of openness about how we collect, use and disclose your personal information.

This Privacy & Security Policy (the "Policy") informs you how SendtoNews collects, uses and discloses the personal information that you provide to us through use of our Website and subscription to our services.

We recommend that you take the time to read this Policy so that you understand how we handle and process information, including personal information. As we develop and expand our services, this Policy may also change. We will include a "last amended" date on the Policy as displayed on the Website. We strongly encourage you to refer back to the Policy periodically.

This Policy also explains how you can contact us if you have a question about our privacy practices, want to change or update your personal information or change your preferences concerning our use and disclosure of your personal information.

For the purpose of this Policy, "personal information" means information about an identifiable individual, but does not include the name, title or business address or telephone number of an employee or volunteer of an organization. SendtoNews will not collect, use or disclose your personal information in a way that is incompatible with this Policy.

How We Collect and Use Personal Information

Account Creation and Service Delivery

When you sign up for an account with SendtoNews we ask for your full name, email address, employer, job title, telephone number, state/province, country, zip/postal code, and a password. We use this information to process and maintain your account request or facilitate the provision of other services you request from us.

For example, we use your email address and telephone number to answer inquiries that you send to us, and to communicate with you when necessary concerning the administration of your account and the processing of your requests. As these functions are necessary to the proper administration of your account and our related services, we do not offer an opt-out from providing your email address and telephone number for such communications.

We use your state/province, country, and zip/postal code information in order to ascertain your location and time zone, which allows us to provide information localized for your needs and interests.

Optionally, we also invite you to provide a street address, a website address, mobile telephone and facsimile numbers. We use this information to answer inquiries that you send to us, and to communicate with you when necessary. We also invite you to submit a corporate logo and / or a personal picture. However, you may elect not to provide any of this information if you would prefer not to do so.

Except as may be required by law or provided herein, we will not use this information for third party marketing or any other purpose.

Email for Marketing Purposes

As a SendtoNews user, you may receive email communications from us that inform you about new functionality or news about our site. You will only receive emails communication after giving consent to do so. You may opt-out of receiving such email communications by contacting us at support at sendtonews dot com. If you do not opt-out, we will use your personal information for these purposes.

A cookie is a small piece of information that a website can store via your internet access device for later retrieval. We use sessional cookies to assist in the log in to your account. SendtoNews uses Google Analytics, including Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting, to help us track the use of our Website.

Most browsers will allow you to disable cookies, or allow only sessional cookies to be placed. If your browser is set to allow sessional cookies only, your use of the Website will be unaffected. If your browser is set to disable sessional cookies, you will not be able to log in to the Website.

SendtoNews collects aggregate information concerning usage of the Website through automatically logged information (for example, statistics that identify our most popular pages). SendtoNews does not use any personal information while generating this information, nor does it relate any of this information to an individual member or user.

Third party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to the Website. Google's use of the DoubleClick cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of the use of the DoubleClick cookie for interest-based advertising by visiting the ads preference manager.

Updating Your Personal Information

You may update or change your personal information anytime by sending an email to support at sendtonews dot com or by logging into the "Account" tab of the "Settings" menu on the website.

Knowledge and Consent

SendtoNews collects personal information about you only when you voluntarily provide it. We will seek consent for the use or disclosure of your personal information at the time of collection. In certain circumstances, consent may be sought after the information has been collected but before use (for example, when we want to use information for a purpose not previously identified).

The form of consent that we seek, including whether it is express or implied, will largely depend on the sensitivity of the personal information and the reasonable expectations of the individual in the circumstances.

You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. If you wish to withdraw your consent at any time, please contact us at support at sendtonews dot com. We will inform you of the implications of withdrawing consent.

We will not, as a condition of the supply of a product or service, require you to consent to the collection, use or disclosure of information beyond that reasonably required to fulfill the explicitly specified and legitimate purposes for which the information is being provided.

User Rights

Your retain the right to access your personal data and information and be informed on how it is being processed. If requested STN will provide an overview of the categories of data being processed, a copy of the actual data and details about the processing including purpose, how the data was acquired and with whom it was shared, without fee.

You retain the right to have your personal data rectified if it is inaccurate or incomplete. That rectification must be disclosed to any and all third-party recipients involved in the processing of the data in question – unless doing so is impossible or disproportionately difficult.

You retain the right to object to certain processing activities in relation to their personal data carried out by the SendtoNews. In a nutshell, the user can object to the processing of their data whenever the processing is based on the controller’s legitimate interest, or the performance of a task in the public interest/exercise of official authority, or for purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics. The user has to motivate their objection, unless the processing is carried out for direct marketing purposes, in which case no motivation is needed to exercise this right.

You retain the right to obtain your personal data for the purpose of transferring it from one controller to another, without being prevented from doing so by the data processor.

When data is no longer relevant to its original purpose or where users have withdrawn consent or where the personal data have been unlawfully processed, you have the right to request that your data be erased and all dissemination ceased. The right to erasure can be refused where the personal data is processed for archiving purposes in the public interest, where data is necessary for legal defense, to comply with a legal obligation, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest. The right to erasure can also be denied where the data is necessary to exercise the right of freedom of expression, or where the data is being processed for health purposes in the public interest.

You have the right to restrict the processing of your personal data in cases where you have contested its accuracy; where you have objected to the processing and SendtoNews is considering whether it has a legitimate ground which overrides this right; where the processing is unlawful but the user requests restriction instead of erasure; or where the data is no longer needed but the user needs it to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim. The restriction must be disclosed to any and all third-party recipients involved in the processing of the data in question – unless doing so is impossible or disproportionately difficult. If requested by the user, SendtoNews must also inform the user about these third-party recipients.

When We Disclose Your Personal Information

SendtoNews will not sell, license, trade or rent your personal information. SendtoNews will not otherwise disclose your personal information except as described below.

SendtoNews may also disclose personal information about its members to a third party if (a) a law, regulation, search warrant, subpoena or court order legally requires or authorizes us to do so; (b) necessary to enforce and protect the terms and conditions of our agreement(s) with you or the Terms of Use applicable to our Website; or (c) if necessary to collect on outstanding accounts.

SendtoNews also reserves the right to disclose and/or transfer personal information to a third party in the event of a proposed or actual purchase, sale, lease, merger, amalgamation or any other type of acquisition, disposal or financing of all or any portion of SendtoNews or of any of the business or assets or shares of SendtoNews, PROVIDED THAT the third party represents that it will continue to use the information for the purposes set out in this Policy and in accordance with applicable privacy protection laws.

Retention of Your Personal Information

We retain your personal information, including contact, account and usage history for the period that you remain a user for the purposes described above, and following the termination or suspension of your subscription for such further periods as required by applicable laws or limitation periods and as necessary to allow us to guard against fraud. In the event you decide to suspend and then reactivate your subscription with SendtoNews, you may be prompted to confirm your personal information at that time if your personal information continues to be retained by SendtoNews for the purposes described above.

How We Protect Your Personal Information

SendtoNews uses commercially reasonable efforts to protect your personal information from loss, unauthorized access, misuse or theft. Only SendtoNews staff who have a legitimate business purpose for accessing the personal information collected by SendtoNews are authorized to do so. Unauthorized access to or use of personal information by anyone affiliated with SendtoNews is prohibited and constitutes grounds for disciplinary action.
