We at Trusonic, Inc. respect the privacy concerns of the users of this
site and have created this privacy policy to explain (1) what information
we gather from you when you visit our site, (2) how we may use such
information, (3) your choices concerning how we may use such information
and (4) the security measures we take to protect such information. Some
information is collected on this site automatically through our technology;
other information is collected only when you choose to give it to us
(e.g., when you submit content in connection with the Trusonic Music
Program or sign up for a specific online transaction).
Information We Gather Automatically
When you visit this site, certain non-personally identifying information
is recorded automatically by the standard operation of our Internet
servers. Information such as the type of browser being used, its operating
system, and your computer's Internet Protocol ("IP") address (a number
that your Internet service provider assigns to your computer whenever
you surf the Internet) is gathered in order to facilitate our online
operations and to assure an efficient online experience for you. We
may also use or share this information for security purposes, to generate
group statistics about our user community, or as required by law.
We may use your IP address or other automatically recorded information,
in cooperation with your Internet provider, to identify you if it is
necessary to contact you or to bring legal action against you because
you are violating the Trusonic, Inc. Terms and Conditions of Use for this site,
Trusonic Music Program Terms and Conditions,
Trusonic Message Service Terms and
Conditions, if applicable, or may be causing injury to or interference
(intentionally or unintentionally) with our rights or property or with
the rights or property of others.
Personal Information You Provide To Us
We may request personally identifying information from you in a variety
of contexts. For example, you may provide such data to us if you: (1)
complete an online registration form (e.g., various sign-up forms for
receiving email newsletters, registering for special offers, registering
for an account, entering a contest or responding to a survey); (2) fill
out an order form to request information; (3) register to participate
in chat rooms and other community features; or (4) purchase any products
or services from us.
In such cases, the personally identifying information we request may
include your name, email address, mailing address and zip code, phone
number, and, where appropriate, a valid credit card number with expiration
date (collectively, "Personal Information"). In addition, we may collect
other non-personally identifying information such as your date of birth,
gender, country of residence, language preference, hobbies and other
information regarding your interaction with our site and other customized
activities in which you participate. Of course, you never have to answer
any of the questions we ask you, but refusal to do so may limit the
products or services we can offer or provide to you and will preclude
your participation in the Trusonic Music Program.
When you provide Personal Information to us, we will use that data to
create an Artist
Account for you, which will be held in a secure database. Others
outside Trusonic, Inc. will not be allowed to see the data on your Artist
Account page except with your consent (see below). However, you will
be able to access your Artist Account page at any time in order to update
your individual Personal Information or to change your preferences (see
below under "How Can You Correct or Review Your Personal Information?"
for more details).

or delivery services). We will not share your credit card information
with any other company unless it is involved in the fulfillment or delivery
of your order. We do not rent, sell or share credit card information
with promotional partners or other third parties.

a given promotional partner or third party advertiser in connection
with a specific promotion, registration page or sweepstakes. If you

partners and third-party advertisers, you are allowing such parties
to use such Personal Information and to contact you in accordance with

with you.

Safeguarding Your Personal Information
Trusonic, Inc. cares about the security of your Personal Information.
We follow generally accepted industry security standards to safeguard
and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security and correctly
use such Personal Information. When you provide credit card information,
we use secure socket layer (SSL) encryption for that data.
However, unfortunately, despite many advances in information security
technology and procedures, no commercially deployed method of information
transfer over the Internet or electronic data storage is known to be
100% secure. As a result, while we do strive to use modern and commercially
reasonable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee
the absolute security of that information during its transmission or
its storage in our systems.

We are a general audience site that does not knowingly collect data
or accept registrations from children under 13 years of age. We take
reasonable steps to ensure that any users who may be under 13 years
of age (and who attempt to complete the registration process on our
site) are directed to another part of our site which specifically complies
with the notification requirements of the Children's Online Privacy
Protection Act, or COPPA.
