EatMyShift.TV Privacy Notice

Updated as of November 2, 2009

The Monster Transmission privacy policy describes how Monster Transmission and its subsidiaries treat personal information when you use Monster Transmission services, including information provided when you use EatMyShift.TV. In addition, the following describes privacy practices specific to EatMyShift.TV.

Personal Informationn

You can watch videos on EatMyShift.TV without having a EatMyShift.TV Account or a Monster Transmission Account. You also can contact us through the EatMyShift.TV Help Center or by emailing us directly without having to register for an account.
Your EatMyShift.TV Account. For some activities on EatMyShift.TV, like uploading videos, posting comments, flagging videos, or watching restricted videos, you need a EatMyShift.TV or Monster Transmission Account. We ask for some personal information when you create an account, including your email address and a password, which is used to protect your account from unauthorized access. A Monster Transmission Account, additionally, allows you to access other Monster Transmission services that require registration.
Usage Information. When you use EatMyShift.TV, we may record information about your usage of the site, such as the channels, groups and favorites you subscribe to, which other users you communicate with, the videos you watch, the frequency and size of data transfers, and information you display about yourself as well as information you click on in EatMyShift.TV (including UI elements, settings). If you are logged in, we may associate that information with your EatMyShift.TV Account. In order to ensure the quality of our service to you, we may place a tag (also called a "web beacon") in HTML-based customer support emails or other communications with you in order to confirm delivery.
Content Uploaded to Site. Any personal information or video content that you voluntarily disclose online (e.g., video comments, your profile page) may be collected and used by others. If you download the EatMyShift.TV Uploader, your copy includes a unique application number. This number, and information about your installation of the Uploader (version number, language) will be sent to EatMyShift.TV when the Uploader automatically checks for updates and will be used to update your version of the Uploader.

Uses

If you submit personal information to EatMyShift.TV, we may use that information to operate, maintain, and improve the features and functionality of EatMyShift.TV, and to process any flagging activity or other communication you send to us.
We do not use your email address or other personal information to send commercial or marketing messages without your consent. We may use your email address without further consent for non-marketing or administrative purposes (such as notifying you of major EatMyShift.TV changes or for customer service purposes). You also can choose how often EatMyShift.TV sends you email updates in your EatMyShift.TV Account settings page.
We use cookies, web beacons, and log file information to: (a) store information so that you will not have to re-enter it during your visit or the next time you visit EatMyShift.TV; (b) provide custom, personalized content and information; (c) monitor the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns; (d) monitor aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors and pages viewed; and (e) track your entries, submissions, and status in promotions, sweepstakes, and contests.

Information That is Publicly Available

When you create a EatMyShift.TV Account, some information about your EatMyShift.TV Account and your account activity will be provided to other users of EatMyShift.TV. This may include the date you opened your EatMyShift.TV Account, the date you last logged into your EatMyShift.TV Account, your age (if you choose to make it public), the country and the number of videos you have watched.
Your EatMyShift.TV Account name, not your email address, is displayed to other users when you engage in certain activities on EatMyShift.TV, such as when you upload videos or send messages through EatMyShift.TV. Other users can contact you by leaving a message or comment on the site.
Any videos that you submit to EatMyShift.TV may be redistributed through the internet and other media channels, and may be viewed by other EatMyShift.TV users or the general public.
You may also choose to add personal information which may include your name, gender, profile picture or other details, that will be visible to other users on your EatMyShift.TV Account channel page. If you choose to add certain features to your EatMyShift.TV Account channel page, then these features and your activity associated with these features will be displayed to other users and may be aggregated and shared with your friends or other users. Such shared activity may include your favorite videos, videos you rated and videos that you have uploaded.

Your Choices

If you have a EatMyShift.TV Account, you may update or correct your personal profile information, email preferences and privacy settings at any time by visiting your account profile page.
You may control the information that is available to other users and your confirmed friends at any time by editing your EatMyShift.TV Account and the features that are included on your channel page. If you have enabled Active Sharing, other users may see that you, as identified by your account name, not your email address, are watching the same video.
You may, of course, decline to submit personal information through EatMyShift.TV, in which case you can still view videos and explore EatMyShift.TV, but EatMyShift.TV may not be able to provide certain services to you. Some advanced EatMyShift.TV features may use other Monster Transmission services like Monster Transmission Checkout or AdSense. The privacy notices of those services govern the use of your personal information associated with them.
