INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES

The Services may use cookies, web beacons, pixels, and other tracking technologies to collect information about your use of the Services, including without limitation, your browser type and version, IP address, operating system and platform, when you open email that we send you, and other similar information.  This information helps us to provide the Services, including, without limitation, to improve and enhance the user experience and help us understand the behavior of our users. Cookies are messages placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website or page. For example, the messages store information so that our Services may immediately recognize you each time you visit. This permits us to personalize our Services for each user, allow access to the secure parts of our Services that individual users have registered for, and provide users with up-to-date information about their own account.

We may also use cookies to deliver ads, store visitor preferences, record session information (e.g., when a payment is made), record user-specific information on what pages users access or visit, track and record past activity at the Site (or on other Services) in order to provide better service when visitors return to our Site (or other Services), customize web page content based on visitors’ browser type, or other information that the visitor sends.  If you choose to disable cookies, you may find that certain sections and functionalities of the Services will not work properly or at all.

Web beacons (also called web bugs and clear GIFs) are used in combination with cookies to help us understand the behavior of our users. A web beacon is typically a transparent graphic image that is placed on our site or in an email. The use of a web beacon allows TRAFIK to record the simple actions of a user opening a page that contains a beacon. When a user’s browser requests information from a website in this way, certain simple information can also be gathered, such as: the IP address of your computer, the time the material was viewed, the type of browser that retrieved the image, and the existence of cookies previously set by that server. Web beacons provide a convenient way of gathering statistics and managing cookies.

TRAFIK and other third parties may collect and store information (including personal information) locally on your device using mechanisms such as browser web storage (including HTML 5) and application data caches.  If you want to adjust your settings or delete all local storage mechanisms, go to your browser’s settings to do so.  If information is stored in local storage in addition to a cookie, you will need to remove both the local storage and the cookie in order to fully delete the information.

TRAFIK and other third parties may collect certain device information from you when you use the Services from a mobile device such as the type of device you use, unique device ID, geo-location (including your precise location), wireless mobile subscriber ISDN number, IP address, operating system, browser type, and information about your use of the Services. You may also manage the information transmitted from your device from your device’s settings, including opting-out of cross-device tracking. However, if you prevent tracking on your device, it will be more difficult, and may be impossible, for you to use the Services or portions of the Services.

We may merge the data we collect from your activity on the Services with data available from third parties, including, without limitation, advertisers.  We have implemented Google Analytics[GLH1] . You can use the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on available at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/ to disable tracking by Google Analytics. 

Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personal information or personally sensitive data through TRAFIK’s website, this information may be collected and used by others.

TRAFIK shares personal information as stated in this Privacy Notice and in accordance with Applicable Laws. We do not share your personal information with others except as indicated in this Privacy Notice or when we inform you and give you an opportunity to “opt-out” of having your personal information shared. Below are categories of third-parties that we may share your information with:

Service Providers

We may share your personal information with service providers who perform services on TRAFIK’s behalf. Your information is generally shared with service providers so that TRAFIK can streamline and enhance users’ experiences with the Services. Service providers could include parties that perform research services, provide operational support, provide marketing platforms, handle payments, create content for the Site, etc.

  1. HOW CAN I CORRECT OR UPDATE MY PERSONAL INFORMATION OR OPT-OUT AND UNSUBSCRIBE FROM ANY OR ALL COMMUNICATIONS?

If your personal information changes (such as your mailing address), you can log into your account and correct it yourself. If you no longer desire to use our Site and/or Services and wish to have your personal information removed from our system, contact us by email at privacy@thetrafik.com.

With the exception of the mandatory administrative emails mentioned above (transactional and business relationship messages), recipients have an opportunity to update their email communication preferences.

If you would like to stop receiving marketing or promotional communications via email from TRAFIK, you may opt out of such communications by replying “STOP” or clicking on the “UNSUBSCRIBE” button once activated.

  1. HOW DOES TRAFIK PROTECT MY PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Security Measures & Safeguards

The security of our users’ information is very important to us. When users submit personal information via the Services, that information is protected by generally accepted industry standards, and in accordance with applicable data privacy laws, including both online and offline security measures and safeguards. TRAFIK uses a combination of administrative, technical, personnel, and physical measures to safeguard personal information in its possession against loss, theft, and unauthorized use, disclosure, or modification. While we strive to protect your personal information, you acknowledge that: (a) there are security and privacy limitations inherent to the Internet which are beyond our control; and (b) security, integrity, and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged between you and us through this Site cannot be guaranteed.

TRAFIK uses SSL protocol to secure your personal information. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other websites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.

IF YOU HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE THAT YOUR INTERACTION WITH US IS NO LONGER SECURE, PLEASE IMMEDIATELY NOTIFY US OF THE PROBLEM.  However, please remember that no method of electronic storage or transmission over the internet is one hundred percent (100%) secure and, therefore, while we strive to use commercially reasonable means to protect your personal information, and will comply with applicable data privacy laws, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of such information.

Phishing

Phishing is a term used to describe a type of Internet scam in which inauthentic communications that appear to be coming from a legitimate source are sent in an attempt to trick you into providing confidential information. These communications usually invoke a sense of urgency and often imply that your account is about to be closed unless immediate action is taken. As an example, phishing emails will often ask you to click on a link that leads you to a webpage that simulates that of the legitimate source, but it is really a page specially designed to get you to input your confidential information such as your account number, password, social security number, or credit card number. The thieves then use that information to commit fraud and identity theft.

If you ever question the legitimacy of an email or other communication from TRAFIK, please email us at privacy@thetrafik.com.

If you believe you have been the victim of a scam, you can file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at: www.consumer.gov/idtheft/.

  1. HOW LONG DOES TRAFIK RETAIN YOUR INFORMATION AND WHERE IS PERSONAL INFORMATION STORED?

We will retain your information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes for their collection as outlined in this Privacy Notice, unless a longer retention period is either mandated by the TRAFIK’s contractual requirements, internal policies, or otherwise required or allowed by law.  It is not always possible to completely remove or delete all of your information due to technical constraints, contractual, financial, or legal requirements. Where it is not possible to remove or delete all information, TRAFIK shall continue to safeguard your information as detailed herein.

TRAFIK may store your personal information on servers provided by third party hosting vendors with whom we have contracted. 

  1. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

We understand the importance of protecting children’s privacy. We are a general audience service and do not use the Service to knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of thirteen (13) without verified parental or guardian consent. 

TRAFIK complies with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and if you believe we have information regarding your child who is under the age of 13 that you have not authorized, you may email us at privacy@thetrafik.com to request that we delete it.

If you are a child under thirteen (13) years of age, you are not permitted to use the Site, without parental or guardian consent, and should not send any information about yourself to us through this Site.

  1. CHANGES TO OUR PRIVACY NOTICE AND COMMUNICATING CHANGES

This Privacy Notice is subject to change at any time. All changes will be posted on the Site.  If the changes are significant, we will notify you by prominently posting a notice on our Services (e.g., through a pop-up on our homepage). Changes will become effective as of the earlier of the date we post the revised privacy notice, send an email detailing any changes, or post such a notice. While we will do our best to inform you of any changes, we encourage you to review our Privacy Notice periodically to ensure that you remain informed of changes that may have occurred, including changes that relate to what information we collect, how we use it, and how we share it.  BY CONTINUING TO USE THE SITE AFTER A CHANGE HAS TAKEN PLACE, YOU ARE AGREEING THAT YOU HAVE READ AND HAVE AGREED TO THE MOST CURRENT VERSION OF THIS PRIVACY NOTICE AND EXPRESSLY CONSENT TO THE USE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION AS DETAILED HEREIN/THEREIN.

  1. LEGAL DISCLAIMER AND NOTICES

Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose your personal information to others. We may share your information to provide information to our representatives, service providers, advisors, corporate affiliates, and business partners, and in the event of a change in control of TRAFIK and/or its affiliates, your information may be shared with the organization obtaining ownership and control. Your information may be used to protect the rights, including legal rights, and safety of ourselves and others.  Furthermore, disclosure of personal information may be required by law where we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order, or legal process.  In such cases, we may raise or waive any legal objection or right available to us. 

You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications that we provide to you electronically, via email and on the Site, satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

  1. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

Other websites and services to which we link, through which you access the Site and/or the Services, or share information from the Site and which are not owned or controlled by us are not subject to the terms of this Privacy Notice.  WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRIVACY PRACTICES OR THE CONTENT OF ANY OTHER WEB SITES OR SERVICES AND ANY VISIT YOU MAKE TO THOSE OTHER SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.  Third parties that support the Site and/or the Services, including by providing advertising or other services, such as analytics, may use tracking technologies to collect information about your use of the Services or other third-party services.  We do not control these third-party technologies or services and their use is governed by the privacy policies of third parties using such technologies.  Such third party’s use of any information you share is governed by the third party’s privacy notice.

  1. CONTACT INFORMATION

If you have any questions about this Privacy Notice or our privacy practices, please contact us via email at privacy@thetrafik.com.

  1. TRACKING TECHNOLOGY

There is currently no industry or legal standard for what a company should do when a Do Not Track signal is detected. Because of this, we currently do not respond to Do Not Track signals.

Regular cookies may generally be disabled or removed by tools available as part of most commercial browsers, and in some instances blocked in the future by selecting certain settings.  Browsers offer different functionalities and options so you may need to set them separately 

Please be aware that if you disable or remove these technologies, some parts of the Site may not work and that when you revisit the Site your ability to limit browser-based Tracking Technologies is subject to your browser settings and limitations.  

  15. CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

If you are a California resident, California law may provide you with additional rights regarding our use of your personal information. Click here to learn more about your California privacy rights.

California’s “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our App that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

In addition, Studio makes no representation, warranty or covenant with respect to (i) the Elements or the exploitation of the Deliverables, (ii) claims resulting from Studio’s compliance with the direction or artistic and/or technical specifications of Customer, or (iii) any third party’s IP Rights relating to disc structure, disc or content format (including the codecs/output formats or ultraviolet/DECE), content protection (including DRM, Macrovision or watermarking), disc or content replication, the reading or playback of discs or content by playback machines/software, disc or content-related connectivity or disc manufacturing, including, but not limited to, anything required or described in standards or format guidelines for disc or content formats with which the Deliverables are intended to be used.

B.     Limitations of Responsibilities of Studio. It is understood and agreed that Studio is not an insurer and that payments made for service provided by Studio are based solely on the value of such services. The Elements and Deliverables are received, processed and stored solely at the risk of the Customer. Studio reserves the right to assign or subcontract all or any part of the work ordered. Studio may hold Elements at any place(s) that Studio deems appropriate, there being no promise or representation, expressed or implied, that the Elements and Deliverables will be retained or stored at any particular location or by under particular conditions.

C.     Limitations for Damage to or Loss of Elements. In the event that the Elements are lost, destroyed or damaged for any reason, including through negligence of the Studio, its employees, subcontractors or agents, Studio liability shall be limited to the replacement of unexposed/unrecorded raw stock. If such Elements contain time coding, Customer specifically agrees to test such time coding for accuracy before relying on such time coding, Customer agrees to notify Studio of any inaccuracies in such time coding, and Studio agrees to correct such inaccuracies at Customer’s expense. Studio’s obligation shall be limited to correcting any such inaccuracies in time coding, and Studio shall not be liable for any loss, injury, or damage, direct, indirect or consequential, that may be incurred as a result of any inaccuracies in any time coding.

D.     Limitations for Defects in Delivery, Services or Materials. If any Deliverable is defective or is erroneously labeled or shipped or if non-conforming services or materials are furnished by Studio, Studio’s liability therefore shall be limited to replacement or repair of such defective Deliverable (at the option of Studio), and the correction of such errors in shipment or labeling or the providing of conforming Studio services or material at Studio’s expense; provided that the defective Deliverable is returned and written notice of such imperfection or error in labeling or shipment is received by Studio within ninety (90) days after shipment.

E.     Limitations for Delay in Delivery. Studio shall use reasonable efforts to deliver in accordance with delivery dates, but Studio is not liable for any loss or damages caused by Studio’s failure to meet any delivery date or times, or failure to give notice of delay.

F.     Limitations for Absence of Data Backups. 

i)      On-Set Back-ups for Dailies Services.  For “dailies” services provided by Studio, best practices require that Customer adhere to an “on-set” back-up solution, whereby original camera and sound Elements are safely copied to an “on-set back-up” before such Elements leave the production location.  In the event Customer elects not to implement any type of on-set back up for a project, (a) Customer accepts all risks associated with the resulting lack of data redundancy, and (b) in the event any data is degraded or corrupt upon delivery to Studio, then (x) Customer shall be solely responsibility for recovery of any data contained on such Elements, (y) Studio’s obligation shall be limited to returning the Elements to Customer (such that Customer, at its sole cost, may attempt data recovery), and (z) Studio shall not be liable for any loss, injury, or damage, direct, indirect or consequential, that may be incurred as a result of such degradation of corruption of the Elements.

ii)     Full Back-ups for Finishing Services.  For creative post production “finishing” services provided by Studio, best practices require that Customer utilize and maintain, during the duration of the Studio’s services, a full data back-up, either on spinning disk or tape (a “Full Back-up”).  In the event Customer (a) declines to purchase a Full Back-up service from Studio, (b) elects to provide its own full back-up solution (separate and apart from the service offered by Studio), or (c) elects not to implement any type of full back-up in the project workflow, then (x) Customer accepts all risks associated with the resulting lack of data redundancy, and (y) Studio shall not be liable for any loss, injury, or damage, direct, indirect or consequential, that may be incurred due to any resulting loss of data.

G.    Force Majeure. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Studio shall not be liable for any delay or loss due to delays or failures in performance caused directly or indirectly by the Element; acts of God; Customer, civil or military authorities; terrorism; civil unrest; fires; floods; quarantine restrictions; epidemics, pandemics or disease outbreaks; wars; riots; strikes; lock outs; labor difficulties; failures of equipment or transportation; whole or partial satellite malfunctions, uplink failures, internet outages, communications line failures or power failures; inability to obtain, or the failure of others to deliver, Element, machinery, equipment or qualified personnel; or any other cause beyond Studio’s reasonable control. In the event of a delay, the delivery or shipping date, as appropriate, shall be deemed extended for a period equal to the delay.

H.     Damages. Studio’s total liability for any and all loss or damage arising out of or in connection with any contract for services shall be limited to the total sums paid by Customer to Studio under such contract. IN NO EVENT AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL STUDIO BE LIABLE TO ANY PARTY FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES RESULTING FROM: (a) ANY DEFECTIVE ELEMENT, DELIVERABLES, SERVICES, PRODUCTS OR EQUIPMENT; OR (b) DAMAGES TO, OR DESTRUCTION OF ELEMENTS OR DELIVERABLE BY STUDIO, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH DAMAGES ARE CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF STUDIO, ITS EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR SUBCONTRACTORS; OR (c) ANY NEGLIGENCE OR BREACH OF DUTY (CONTRACTUAL OR OTHERWISE) BY STUDIO, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPROPER STORAGE OR RETENTION, PROCESSING, PACKING, DELAY IN DELIVERY OR SHIPMENT, OR ERRORS IN SHIPMENT, OR LABELING.

7.     STUDIO LIENS; SECURITY INTEREST. In addition to any other liens, rights or remedies given to Studio under applicable law herein, Customer hereby grants, assigns and transfers to Studio a security interest in and lien on any and all Elements and Deliverables in the possession of Studio as security for payment of any and all services and materials furnished to Customer by Studio.

A.     Additional Payments. In the event Studio exercises its rights hereunder by selling the Elements or Deliverables at public or private sale, then Customer agrees to pay Studio on written demand whatever deficiency may be due after the proceeds are applied to payment of the indebtedness, including, without limitation, all legal and other costs, expenses and charges incurred in the collection, sale, delivery or preservation of the Elements or Deliverables.

B.     Title After Sale. Customer agrees that if Studio shall enforce its rights under any law, it or any other person acquiring title or interest in or to any Elements or Deliverables at public or private sale, shall have and is hereby granted, all right, title and interest of Customer in the Elements or Deliverables.

8.     RETENTION AND DISPOSAL OF INACTIVE ELEMENTS. Provided that all obligations that may arise hereunder have been paid to Studio, Customer shall remove from Studio’s premises all Elements and Deliverables within three (3) months after the last work thereon. If Customer fails to remove said Elements or Deliverables as herein provided, Studio may at any time, without further notice or liability to Customer or any other person, begin charging Customer a storage/retention fee per Element, destroy, erase, reuse or make any disposition of said Elements or Deliverables as Studio sees fit. Customer agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Studio harmless from all liability arising out of or connected with Studio’s destruction or disposition of said Elements or Deliverables as provided herein.

9.     INSURANCE. Customer agrees to insure fully, at its own expense, Elements and Deliverables against all insurable risk, including damage or destruction of such Elements and Deliverables through the negligence of Studio. Such insurance against any and all losses (including incidental and consequential losses) for which insurance is available and the policy and the policy of insurance shall provide that the insurer waives all claims of subrogation against Studio. Studio shall not insure any Elements or Deliverables.

10.   TECHNICAL CALIBRATION AND EXHIBITION; PUBLICITY. Customer hereby grants Studio the right to use the Elements for technical calibration to adjust the system used to process the Element.

Following the theatrical release of the picture, the Customer hereby grants Studio the limited right to exhibit the Deliverables, or excerpts thereof, on Studio’s websites, in social media, in press releases, or in “demo reels” for the limited purpose of demonstrations of Studio’s work in accordance with standard industry practice.  Studio shall have the right to use the Customer’s name for Studio publicity and marketing purposes limited in reference to the product or services supplied by Studio.

11.   DELIVERY. Delivery shall be at Studio’s premises. Risk shall pass to Customer on delivery. On instruction from Customer, Studio will cause Elements and Deliverables to be transported to any destination (whether by courier, satellite, fiber, posted to an Internet site or server, or email) requested at the expense and risk of the Customer. Customer hereby consents to Studio posting Elements and Deliverables on an FTP site and providing access (via a user identification and password) to Customer’s vendors that are working on the same project as Studio and that have a need for the content on such site. Unless otherwise requested, Studio will ship all physical materials collect, via a carrier of its selection, and a handling charge will be added to all prepaid shipments.
