Your privacy on the Internet is important to us. As part of the operation of the zeetvusa.com and other Zee TV USA, Inc. web sites (collectively, the Web Site), we gather certain types of information about the Web Site users, and we would like to explain the types of information we gather and what we do with it. If you have arrived at this Privacy Policy by clicking on an authorized link from a Web Site, then this Privacy Policy applies to such Web Site, and the individual entity which owns and/or operates the particular Web Site from which you clicked to this Privacy Policy via an authorized link shall be referred to herein as Zee TV USA, "we" or "us." Zee TV USA respects the privacy of its users, and this Privacy Policy explains what information we collect on our Web Site and how we use such information. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. Your use of our Web Site indicates to us that you have read and accepted our privacy practices, as outlined in this Privacy Policy.

Please note that this Privacy Policy only applies to Web Sites owned and/or operated by or for Zee TV USA, and upon which Zee TV USA has placed a link which, when clicked, transfers you to this Privacy Policy. It is not applicable to any other individual web sites owned or operated by Zee TV USA, or for any independent parties affiliated with Zee TV USA. While on our Web Site, you may encounter links to these or other web sites or online material. If you "click" on a link to such a third party, the "click" takes you off our Web Site and to a third party’s web site, which is beyond Zee TV USA’s control. These other web sites may set their own cookies, collect data, and/or have their own privacy policies. This Privacy Policy only covers information collected at the Web Site, and does not cover any information collected by any other web site or offline by Zee TV USA (unless otherwise specifically stated or disclosed by Zee TV USA), its corporate affiliates, licensees or any other company, and we encourage you to review the privacy policy of any other web site you visit.

In addition, please note that this Privacy Policy does not apply to any information you may disclose publicly in any chat rooms, message boards, or similar web pages. You should keep in mind that whenever you publicly disclose information about yourself online - for example, via message boards or chat rooms - that information could be collected and used by people that you do not know. In addition, certain message boards and similar user forums may display IP addresses (as defined below) along with the message poster’s name and message. Zee TV USA bears no responsibility for any action or policies of any third parties who collect any information users may disclose on the message boards, chat areas or other user forums, if any, on the Web Site.

Personal information is information that could reasonably be used to identify you personally (such as your name, address, birth date or e-mail address), which we refer to in this Privacy Policy as "Personal Information." Generally, you may browse our Web Site without providing us with any Personal Information. However, there may be times when we ask you to provide us with certain Personal Information, such as when you choose to register with our Web Site, request receipt of our newsletters, or choose to participate in an online contest, sweepstakes, survey or voting procedure. We may also ask you to provide us with demographic information or information regarding your interests, hobbies or similar information. Zee TV USA reserves the right, at any time, to add features to our Web Site that require you to register or otherwise provide Personal Information, including credit card information, or to require registration to access our Web Site. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you may not be able to take advantage of, or participate in, some of the Web Site’s features. We may combine the information we collect with information available from other sources, including information received from promotional partners or other third parties. We may provide you the opportunity to e-mail an article, electronic greeting card or other special feature from our Web Site to another individual. The e-mail addresses you supply us for those activities will be used to send the requested e-mail and will not be used to send you or the other individual any other e-mail communications.
