Sportsfananza may ask you to provide personally identifiable information, such as your name, address, telephone number, fax number, other contact information and other information about your interests regarding, among other things, your favorite teams, players and sports generally. In addition, we may ask you to provide your password, user identification number, and we may collect information regarding your internet protocol address and browser type. When a visitor provides such information to us, we use it to, among other things: deliver requested goods, services or information; provide notices regarding goods or services you may purchase; verify your authority to enter the Site; and to improve the content and generally administer the Site. If you choose to submit content for publication, we may publish your username and other information you have provided to us. You may also be asked to submit information about other people.

Please note that any video, image, or other content posted at the direction of Users onto the Site becomes published content and is not considered personally identifiable information subject to this Privacy Notice. Any video, image or other content posted by a User has been posted at the User’s affirmative election, and thus, not considered personally identifiable information.
When you visit the Site, we may we use small text files called cookies to improve the overall Site experience. Cookies are text files placed in your computer's browser to store your preferences. Cookies generally do not permit us to personally identify you. The use of cookies is now standard operating procedure for most Web sites. In addition, the Site may use different types of cookies. You can reset your web browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some features of the Site may not function properly if the ability to accept cookies is disabled.
When you use the Site, our technological infrastructure is likely to record certain information that your web browser sends whenever you visit a website. These server logs may include information such as your web request, Internet Protocol ("IP") address, browser type, browser language, referring/exit pages and URLs, platform type, number of clicks, domain names, landing pages, pages viewed and the order of those pages, the amount of time spent on particular pages, the date and time of your request, and one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser.
When you use the Site, we may use tracking mechanisms to track online usage patterns of our Users anonymously (the User will not be personally identified).

We also may use this information in the aggregate to analyze site usage, as well as to offer you products, programs, or services.
If you submit personally identifiable information to us through the Site, then we use your personal information to operate, maintain, and provide to you the features and functionality of the Site.

In addition, we may transfer your personally identifiable information to a successor entity upon a merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization in which Sportsfananza participates or to a purchaser of all or substantially all of Sportsfananza's assets. Such successor entity shall be bound by the terms and conditions of this privacy policy.
Any personal information or video content that you voluntarily disclose online - on discussion boards, in messages and chat areas, within your public profile page, etc. – will become publicly available and can be viewed, collected and used by others. When you upload a video or send a message or respond to a video through the Site, your username (not your email address) will be displayed to other Users.

We may release personally identifiable information and/or non-personally-identifiable information if required to do so by law, or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with state and federal laws (such as U.S. Copyright Law) or respond to a court order, subpoena, or search warrant.

We may use a third-party advertising company to serve ads when you visit our Site.

The Site may use reputable third parties to present or serve the advertisements that you may see at its web pages and to conduct research about the advertisements. Our privacy policy does not cover any use of information that such third parties may have collected from you or the methods used by the third-parties to collect that information (e.g., cookies, web beacons).
Sportsfananza cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to the Site. Any User transmits such information at their own risk.
