Privacy Policy
Baseline StudioSystems, Inc. (dba BaselineFT, Baseline/FilmTracker, baseline.filmtracker.com,
filmtracker.com and baseline.hollywood.com, and Studio Systems, Inc.) ("Baseline")
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 website:
Baseline StudioSystems
We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer
our website and services. Through customer surveys, subscriptions, and newsletter
registration, our site may request users to give us contact information (such as
their name, locale, and email address). The demographic information is used, among
other things, to enhance user experience so we can be more content specific. The
contact information is used to notify users of new services and content, as well
as for surveys and newsletters. Our site uses an order form for customers to subscribe
to our for-pay services. We collect contact information (like e-mail address) and
financial information (like account or credit card numbers). Contact information
from the order form is used to send billing invoices. Contact information is also
used to get in touch with the subscribers when necessary. Users may opt-out of receiving
future communications; see the choice/opt-out section below. Financial information
that is collected is used to bill the user for products and services. We will never
share personal financial information with any other parties. Information collected
during Baseline subscriber registration is used for in-house statistics, marketing
target information, and advising clients of Baseline news and information. This
site contains links to other sites. Baseline is not responsible for the privacy
practices or the content of such websites.
Baseline is committed to protecting your privacy online. Please read this privacy
policy to fully understand how we will make use of the personal information you
share with us. Baseline collects certain personal information in order to provide
you with customized services, content, and advertisements. Some personal information
is gathered when you register to receive certain Baseline products or services.
We may disclose to third parties certain aggregate information contained in your
registration data or related data, provided that, such information will NOT include
personally identifying information, except as specifically authorized by you or
in the good faith belief that such action is reasonably necessary to comply with
the law, legal process, or to enforce the terms of service. Baseline will also use
your personal information for the purposes of providing you with any services to
which you subscribe, and any service-related activities such as collecting subscription
fees from you for those services, and notifying you or contacting you regarding
any problem with, or the expiration of, such services. In this regard, it may be
necessary for Baseline to disclose your personal information to one or more agents
and contractors of Baseline and their subcontractors, but such agents, contractors,
and subcontractors will be required to agree to use the information obtained from
Baseline only for these purposes. We recommend that you do not divulge your password
to anyone. Baseline will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone
call or in an unsolicited email. Also remember to sign out of your Baseline account
and close your browser window when you have finished your work. This is to ensure
that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence if you share
a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library
or Internet cafe. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless
network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect
your personal information, Baseline cannot ensure or warrant the security of any
information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and you
do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort
to ensure its security on our systems. Baseline reserves the right to change this
statement at any time by posting revisions on the Baseline web site. This privacy
policy is not intended to, and does not create any contractual or other legal rights
in or on behalf of any party.
Through surveys and newsletter registration, our site may request users to give
us contact, demographic, and/or financial information (such as their name, locale,
gender, age, income level and email address). The demographic information is used
to enhance user experience so we can be more content specific. The contact information
is used to notify users of new content, for surveys and newsletters, via email.
Financial information that is collected is used primarily for in-house statistics,
advertising, and marketing target information. Users may opt-out of receiving future
mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below.
We may run contests on our site in which we ask visitors for contact information
(such as their name and email address) and demographic information (such as their
zip code, age, and/or income level). The user's contact information is used to contact
the visitor when necessary, such as if they win a contest or to notify users of
upcoming contests. There are three primary types of contests: (1.) We host solely
and all information that is collected stays in-house. (2.) We may share address
information with third party for shipping purposes. (3.) In some rare instances,
a third party may host the contest and all information is then shared. In our contest
registration, we give our users the opportunity to sign up for the Baseline newsletter.
However, users may opt-out of receiving future mailings by selecting the "unsubscribe"
link at the bottom of the newsletter.
Baseline products and services are directed at an adult market, and therefore this
site is intended for use by adults only. Baseline encourages parents to take an
active role in their children's use of the Internet, and to inform them of the dangers
of providing information about themselves over the Internet. Children of any age
should always ask a parent for permission before sending personal information to
anyone online. No information should be submitted to or posted on this web site
by users under 13 years of age without the consent of their parent or guardian.
Users that Baseline knows to be under the age of 13 are hereby required to provide
the e-mail address of their parent or guardian here so
that Baseline may alert the parent or guardian of their child's use of this web
site. The parent or guardian must consent to Baseline's collection of their child's
personal information. A known child user will be restricted from providing personal
information until such consent is received. No information collected from users
known to be under age 13 will be used for any marketing or promotional purposes
outside Baseline. If Baseline collects personally identifiable information from
children, it will do so in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Policy
Act of 1998 (U.S.C. 6501 et seq.).
