If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the home page, and other places we deem appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review it frequently. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here, by email, or by means of a notice on our home page.
The amount and type of information we collect from you depends on your activities and use of our Web site. Below, we explain what information we collect.
IP address - We collect your IP address to measure our Web site traffic and to help provide a relevant shopping experience.
Referral Web site. If you come to our Web site via a link, we collect the location of the link that referred you.
Browser type. We collect information about the browser you are using to help optimize our Web site for visitors.
Movements through our Web site. We keep track of pages you visit to help provide you with a more personalized shopping experience.
We collect your name, billing address and payment information (such as your credit card number and expiration date) to process your order.
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user's computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site. We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our site.
We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser's "help" file.
We set a persistent cookie to store your email address, so you don't have to enter it more than once. Persistent cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site.
We collect information contained in cookies, such as your purchases and log in data, to personalize your shopping experience. Your browser must accept cookies if you wish you add items to a shopping cart.
The use of cookies by third parties is not covered by our privacy statement. We do not have access or control over these cookies. These third parties use session ID cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site, in order for you to use the shopping cart.
Our third party advertising partner employs a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), that help us better manage content on our site by informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user's computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We do not tie the information gathered by clear gifs to our customers' personally identifiable information.
We collect your first name, e-mail address, zip code, and password. You can help us ensure your privacy by not sharing your password.
We collect your email address and zip code to send you newsletters, offers and promotions. You may opt-out from receiving these types of email communications at any time by utilizing the unsubscribe link located within each email communication.
We collect your e-mail address and the other information that you provide in order to respond to your communication.
If your personally identifiable information changes, or if you no longer desire our service, you may correct or update it by making the change on our member information page or by emailing our Customer Support at customersupport@vividseats.com or by contacting us by telephone or postal mail at the contact information listed below.
We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services. If you wish to cancel your account or request that we no longer use your information to provide you services contact us at customersupport@vividseats.com. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
We collect your name, e-mail address and telephone number, and the other information that is required for entry or participation, which varies depending on the activity.
We may use your personal and account information to provide products or services you have requested, respond to a communication from you, contact you, and as otherwise described in this policy.
We may occasionally send you promotional or product information. If you do not wish to receive promotional or product information, you may opt out of future communications by following the instructions in the e-mail communication or contacting your account manager.
We may also analyze and act upon your personal and account information as part of our standard business practices.
If you become our customer, we may send you updates on important information about our company and services.
We restrict access to your personal and account information to those who need access to use it as set forth in this policy. Your personal and account information will never be sold, shared, rented or traded to third parties except under the following circumstances:
We use other third parties such as a shipping company to fulfill orders, and a credit card processing company to bill you for goods and services. We use Live Chat to assist you if you have questions while using our site or regarding your order. If live chat is offline we will ask for your name and email address so that we may respond to your request. We will share your name, email address, billing and shipping address and credit card information as necessary for the third party to provide that service.
These third parties are prohibited from using your personally identifiable information for promotional purposes.
We use 128-bit encryption technology and Secure Socket Layers ("SSL") in all areas where your personal and account information is required. Our Web site is certified by VeriSign, which verifies that our Web site is authentic and that we use SSL security. To view our VeriSign certificate, click on the image of the closed lock or the solid key at the bottom of your browser window. Our Web site security information will appear.
In addition, your personal and account information and transaction history are kept behind our firewall on separate servers. All transaction information is processed under encrypted channels.
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personally identifiable information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. 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 email us at customerservice@vividseats.com
You can reach us by email customerservice@vividseats.com or you can call us toll-free at 866-848-8499. Please note that messages become our property and, unless you direct otherwise, may be used by us for promotional purposes.
