Types of personal information we collect

We collect and store personal information that you give us if you sign up for our e-mail list, send us a comment through our Contact Us page, register at the site, provide a shipping address for your purchases, participate in a survey, submit content for publication (for example, an article, blog post, e-mail or 'letter to the editor'), call us, or send us a letter or e-mail.  This information may include your name, mailing address, e-mail address, telephone number, fax number, and other optional demographic information.

You do not need to become a registered user to visit or use most of our site.  However, if you make a purchase on the site or seek access to restricted areas, you will be asked to become a registered user.  As a registered user, you may choose to use our referral service (in our Film Shop) to 'E-Mail To A Friend' about our site or an item for sale.  If you choose to do so, we will ask you for your friend's e-mail address and automatically send your friend a one-time e-mail inviting him or her to visit the site.  We do not store this information, which is used for the sole purpose of sending this one-time e-mail.

As is true of most web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files.  This information includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.  We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, administer the site, track users' movements around the site and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.  We do not link this automatically collected data to personally identifiable information.

We use cookies, which are small text files stored on a user's computer for record-keeping purposes, to understand site usage and to improve the content and offerings on our site.  We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our site.  However, we may use cookies to personalize your experience at our web pages, including to save your password in password-protected areas, and to enable you to use the shopping cart on our site.  We also may use cookies to offer new products, programs, or services.

If you reject cookies, you may still use our site, but your ability to use some areas, such as becoming a registered user, making a purchase in the Film Shop, using the 'E-Mail To A Friend' referral service, and accessing restricted areas on the site, will be limited.

How we use and share personal information

We use the personal information we collect to process your orders, identify you within our systems, contact you if we have questions about your order, send you our newsletter or other updates, and notify you about new services, products, events or special promotional programs.  If you choose to submit content for publication (for example, an article, blog post, e-mail or 'letter to the editor'), we may publish your name or user name, and other information you have provided to us.

Based upon the personal information you provide us, we may send you a welcoming e-mail to verify your e-mail address.  We will also communicate with you in response to your inquiries, to provide the services you request, and to manage your account.  We will communicate with you by e-mail, telephone and/or postal mail.

We will send you strictly service related announcements on the rare occasions when it is necessary to do so.  For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance, we might send you an e-mail.  Generally, you may not opt out of these communications, which are not promotional in nature.  If you do not wish to receive them, you have the option to 'unsubscribe' from our e-mail and postal mail lists.

We share your personal information with third parties that perform services for us on our behalf (for example, financial institutions, credit card and payment services companies, shipping companies, printing houses, and consultants and advisers) or when, in our judgment, we believe it is necessary or appropriate to prevent fraud, injury, or harm to persons or property, to protect our rights or the rights of others, to comply with applicable laws and regulations, or as otherwise required by law.

We use PayPal™ as our agent to enable us to accept payments from you, including direct credit card payments, for your purchases.  We will share personal information you provide to us with PayPal™ in order to validate the information, assess the risks of your payment, or confirm the existence or status of your PayPal™ account.  We recommend you visit the PayPal™ website at www.paypal.com and review that company's privacy policy.

We limit the scope of the information provided to third parties and we allow its use only for the purposes for which it was disclosed.

Personal information may be transferred in connection with a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition, insolvency, or asset sale involving any Weiser Films business or asset to which the information pertains.  In the event Weiser Films goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, your personal information will likely be among the assets transferred.

Any personal information you may share with us, and with the businesses that help this site function or assist us in fulfilling your order, is otherwise kept absolutely private.  Neither your name nor anything about you is sold or shared with any other non-affiliated company or agency. We do not partner with or have special relationships with any ad server companies.

Children's privacy

Weiser Films is concerned about the privacy of young children and we do not knowingly collect any personal information from a child under 13.  Weiser Films does not sell products for purchase by children and all children's products we sell are for purchase by adults only.

Accessing and amending personal information

If your personal information changes, or if you no longer desire our service, you may correct or update your information by either sending us an e-mail or letter at the respective addresses below, or if you are a registered user by doing so directly from the User Registration or Login page.

Personal information relating to you is only available to you from the User Registration or Login page if you provide the correct user name and password that you create.  After providing your user name and password, you can edit or unregister your information at any time.  If you remember your user name but forget your password, you can request from the User Registration or Login page that your password be e-mailed to your e-mail address.  We will not give out passwords over the phone, nor will we e-mail them to a different e-mail address than the one used to register.

If you send us an e-mail to make any changes in your personal information, please enter the phrase 'Address Change' in the subject of the e-mail and include your name, user name (if applicable), complete phone number at which you can be reached, complete old postal address and the new address to which you want it changed.  If you send us a letter to make changes, please include all of the foregoing information and your e-mail address (if applicable).

If you sign up for our e-mail list and subsequently wish to unsubscribe, send an e-mail to unsubscribe@weiserfilms.com with 'Unsubscribe' in the subject line.  Similarly, you may remain a registered user on the site (for example, to make a purchase or in order to obtain access to restricted areas of the site), and choose to opt out from our e-mail and postal mail lists by sending an e-mail to unsubscribe@weiserfilms.com with 'Unsubscribe' in the subject line.

To protect your privacy and security, we will take reasonable steps to help verify your identity before granting access or making corrections.

Although we strive to update our e-mail and postal mail lists as frequently as we deem necessary, you might receive a communication or two from us before we are able to remove you.

Our approach to security

We maintain reasonable physical, technical, and procedural measures to limit access to personal information to authorized individuals with appropriate purposes.

Although we take appropriate measures to safeguard against unauthorized disclosures of information, we cannot assure you that personal information we collect will never be disclosed in a manner inconsistent with this Privacy Policy.  Inadvertent disclosures may result, for example, when third parties misrepresent their identities in asking the site for access to personal information about themselves for purposes of correcting possible factual errors in the data.

Further, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure.  Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.  If you have any questions about security on our web site, you can send an e-mail to us at the e-mail address provided below.

Collection of information by third-party sites

For your convenience, our web site contains links to the sites of non-affiliated third parties, including individuals, organizations and other companies.  You should consult the third parties' sites' privacy notices, if any.  Weiser Films has no control over the information submitted to, or collected by, any third party sites.  Weiser Films is not responsible for the privacy practices of any individuals, organizations or companies that run any linked third party sites.

Policy changes

Weiser Films may update or change its Privacy Policy from time to time.  Use of the information we collect now is subject to the Privacy Policy in effect at the time of use.  If policy changes materially affect our uses and disclosures of personal information which we have previously collected, we will post prominent notice of the revised policy on our site and, if appropriate, provide an opportunity to prevent us from applying the revised policy to such information.

Whenever we make a change, we will post the updated policy at this site and we encourage you to check our Privacy Policy periodically.  By using our web site following the posting of a change in the Privacy Policy, you consent to the updated policy.  If you have any questions or concerns regarding our Privacy Policy, please contact us as indicated below.
