The Entertainment Network is committed to protecting your
personal information that you share with us through the
Internet.
This statement is our privacy policy regarding information

statement also provides you with information on how to
prevent your personal information from being collected or

promotions or send us an e-mail. |

The Information We Collect |
|
We collect information about you through two principal
means: through technology (for example IP addresses and
cookies) and through your voluntary submission of
information. |
|
|
|
1. Non-personally Identifiable Information
Using technology, our sites can collect information about
the type of browser you are using, your operating system and
your IP address information using technology. An IP address
is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer
and is recognized by web technology whenever you are surfing
the Internet. None of this information is considered
personally identifiable information. As technology evolves,
additional methods of information gathering may be used such
as "pixel tags" (also known as "web beacons" and "clear
gifs").
We also use cookies and other technologies to collect
non-personally identifiable information for a variety of
purposes, such as to improve the design and content of our
website and to enable us to provide a more personalized
experience when you browse the Internet. Most
industry-standard Web browsers have an option that allows
you to turn off all cookies or have your computer inform you
each time that a request to place a cookie is being made. If
you turn cookies off (or refuse to accept a request to place
a cookie), you may not have access to some features on our
Web sites and some of our services, such as purchasing a
cruise or being automatically recognized as a loyalty
member, may not function properly.
We may provide aggregate non-personally identifiable
information to third parties (such as marketers, ad server
companies and advertisers) that make use of general customer
data. We may also share that information with other third
parties.
The Entertainment Network is not liable for information that
is inaccurate due to technical defects in software used on
our Web sites, whether induced by our systems or by software
provided by third parties. |
|
|
|
2. Personally Identifiable Information
You can use the majority of our Web site without being
required to divulge any personally identifiable information
to us. To participate in or use some of the activities
available on our sites (such as purchasing products,
entering a contest or contacting us) you may be required to
provide certain personally identifiable information (such as
your name and e-mail address). In addition, in connection
with some activities such as purchasing a product, we
collect additional personally identifiable information such
as your date of birth, street and billing address, and
credit card number.
When corresponding with you via e-mail, we may use a variety
of technologies, such as "clear gifs" or "web beacons", to
let us know, among other things, whether you received and
opened our e-mail. The clear gif included in the e-mail may
establish a cookie on your system that further allows us to
tailor information to fit your personal interests.
The Entertainment Network will not trade, sell or share such
personally identifiable information for use by any third
parties unless we have informed you, been authorized by you
or are required by law to do so. In addition, such
personally identifiable information shall not be disclosed
to third parties unless we have informed you, been
authorized by you or are required by law to do so. The term
"third parties" does not include any parent, subsidiaries or
affiliates of The Entertainment Network, service providers
or vendors acting on The Entertainment Network's behalf.
Our policy is to require that third parties keep that
information confidential. We reserve the right to disclose
personally identifiable information, without notice, if we
believe that such action is necessary to defend and protect
the rights or property of The Entertainment Network or to
protect the personal safety of users of The Entertainment
Network or our Web site or the public.
Your credit card number is used to process your request for
products or services and will not be shared with third
parties that are not involved with the transaction. This
information is not stored on our server and is processed on
a secondary secure server. |

How do I tell The Entertainment Network that I don't want to
be contacted or change my personally identifiable
information? |

Links and Third Parties |
|
Our Web sites often provide links to resources that we
believe may be useful. These links will lead you to Web
sites operated by third parties that operate under different
privacy policies. We encourage you to review those privacy
policies, as we have no control over information you may
submit to those third parties. Our web sites may use third
parties, such as booking engines and ad server companies, to
present or serve advertisements that you may see on our web
site. Our web sites may also include advertisements placed
by third parties. Our privacy policy does not cover any
information collected by those third parties nor does it
cover how they may use such information. |

|
|
How do we protect your information? |
|
Security for all personally identifiable information is
extremely important to us. To prevent unauthorized access,
maintain data accuracy and ensure the correct usage of
information, we monitor and adjust our physical, electronic
and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the
information we collect online.
Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that data transmitted
over the Internet will always be secure. As a result, while
we strive to protect your personally identifiable
information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any
information you transmit to us or from our online products
and services, and you do so at your own risk. Upon receipt
of your transmission, we strive to ensure the security of
that information in our systems. |
|
|
|
What about children under the age of 13? |
|
None of our Web sites are targeted at children (minors under
13 years of age), and we do not knowingly collect personally
identifiable information from children who have not obtained
parental consent. We consider our website child friendly. |
| |
|

Privacy Policy. The Entertainment Network reserves the right
to modify, alter or otherwise update this policy at any
time. Visitors are encouraged to review this policy from
time to time to stay abreast of any changes. Your continued

this policy means you accept those changes. |
