Privacy Policy
All personal information
("personal information" is defined as any information that identifies
or can be used to identify, contact, or locate the person to whom such
information pertains) that we collect and maintain will be subject to this
Privacy Policy, as amended from time to time. CC Stock Video reserves the right
to change the Privacy Policy from time to time at its sole discretion and will
provide notice of material changes on the home page of the Site. You will be
deemed to have been made aware of, and will be subject to, the changes to the
Privacy Policy after such notice has been posted with the following exception:
If at the time you provide personal information to CC Stock Video you are given
the opportunity (as you currently are) to limit how such information will be
used to communicate with you, either by CC Stock Video or by third parties, will not change your preference in this regard
without your express consent. However, if CC Stock Video is acquired by or
merged with another entity, CC Stock Video may provide to such entity customer
information that is related to that part of our business that was sold to or
merged with the other entity without your consent, but CC Stock Video will
provide notice of such asset sales, acquisitions, or mergers on this Site.

Personal information on this Site is
collected by CC Stock Video whose address is Crooked Creek Productions, 96
Nixon Lane, Austin, AR 72007, USA and
its telephone number is 1-870-830-4051.
Service Providers / Agents
CC Stock Video uses an outside
credit card processing company to bill you for our goods and services. To the
best of our knowledge, this company does not retain, share, store or use
personally identifiable information for any other purpose.
Collection of personal information
As a visitor to this Site, you can
engage in many activities without providing any personal information. When
ordering products or services on the Site, you will be asked to provide your
name, address, email address, credit card number, phone and fax numbers, job
description and company type. If you choose to submit stock media to CC Stock
Video for licensing, you will be asked to provide the following information:
name, address, email address and phone number. CC Stock Video will verify this
information by asking you to either: a) upload a scan of a government issued ID
(which will be stored on our servers); or b) provide a credit card number. Your
credit card number will be used solely for the purpose of verifying your
address. The credit card number will not be stored. Depending upon the
activity, some of the information that we ask you to provide is identified as
mandatory and some as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory data with
respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to engage in that
activity.
As is true of most websites, when
you use the Site, CC Stock Video or
third parties authorized by CC Stock Video may also collect certain technical and routing
information about your computer to facilitate your use of the Site and its
services. For example, we may log environmental variables, such as browser
type, operating system, CPU speed, and the Internet Protocol (IP) address of
your computer. We use these environmental variables to facilitate and track
your use of the Site and its services. CC Stock Video also uses such
environmental variables to measure traffic patterns on the Site. Without
expressly informing you in each particular circumstance, we do not match such
information with any of your personal information.
In order to reduce errors in our
database, authenticate our users, and prevent abuse of our system, we may on
occasion supplement the personal information you submit to us with information
from third-party sources. For example, we may supplement your Registration
Information with address information provided by the U.S. Postal Service to
qualify your information and prevent errors in our database. As permissible, we
may also supplement the information you provide to us with demographic and
other information (such as age or interest in photography) stored in
third-party databases in order to make it more likely that marketing
communications we send will be of interest to you.
How your personal information is used
CC Stock Video collects your
information in order to record and support your participation in the activities
you select. If you subscribe to a service the information is used to register
your rights, if any, to technical support or other benefits that may be made
available to registered users. As another example, if you enter a contest,
information is collected to qualify the entry and to contact you regarding the
contest or prize awards. Your personal information is also used by CC Stock
Video to track customer preferences and keep you informed about special offers
and services of CC Stock Video and
selected third parties on whose behalf CC Stock Video may contact you unless you opt out of
receiving partner emails. We send these partner special offers to you directly.
At no time do we share your email address with our partners. CC Stock Video may collect information about the use of the
Site, such as the types of services used and how many users we receive daily.
This information is collected in aggregate form, without identifying any user
individually. CC Stock Video may use this aggregate, non-identifying
statistical data for statistical analysis, marketing, or similar promotional
purposes.
Your choices with respect to
personal information
CC Stock Video recognizes and
appreciates the importance of responsible use of information collected on the
Site. CC Stock Video may communicate information to you regarding products,
services, and special offers available from CC Stock Video or selected third parties unless you have
opted not to receive such communications or such communications are prohibited
by law, although we may find it necessary to communicate with you regarding
your use of the services on the Site. We do not sell, rent or share your
personally identifiable information to or with 3rd parties for marketing
purposes or in any way other than that disclosed in this privacy statement. You
may "opt out" of receiving CC Stock Video 's email updates,
newsletter and/or partner emails. CC Stock Video will still contact you when
there are changes to the Terms of Service or Submitter Terms & Conditions,
as applicable. In addition, we might send you strictly service-related
announcements on rare occasions when it is necessary to do so. For instance, if
our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance, we might send you an
email.
Generally, you may not opt-out of
these communications, which are not promotional in nature. If you do not wish
to receive them, you have the option of deactivating your account.
There are limited instances in which
CC Stock Video may divulge your personal information, including requirements of
law, regulation, or litigation. We reserve the right to disclose your personal
information as required by law (e.g., to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court
order, or legal process served on CC Stock Video ) and when we believe that disclosure is
necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others,
investigate fraud, and/or respond to a government request. We may also disclose
information about you if we determine that such disclosure should be made for
reasons of national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public
importance.
The personal information that you
provide in connection with registering yourself as a CC Stock Video Subscriber,
CC Stock Video Submitter or user of any of the services on our Site is, for the
purposes of this Privacy Policy, classified as Registration Information.
Registration Information is protected in several ways. Access by you to your
Registration Information is available through a password and unique customer ID
selected by you. This password is encrypted. You should not divulge your
password to anyone. In addition, your Registration Information resides on a
secure server that only selected CC Stock Video personnel and contractors have
access to via password. CC Stock Video encrypts your personal information and
thereby strives to prevent unauthorized parties from viewing such information
when it is transmitted to CC Stock Video .
The security of your personal
information is important to us. When you enter sensitive information (such as
credit card number and/or social security number) on our registration or order
forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL).
We strive to protect the personal 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. 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 send email to us at
gdavis@ccstockvideo.com.
Personal information that you
provide that does not constitute Registration Information also resides on a
secure server and is accessible only to selected CC Stock Video personnel and
contractors via password. Since this information is not accessible by you, you
will not be asked to select a password in order to view or modify such
information.
If you choose to use our referral
service to tell a friend about our Site, we will ask you for your friend's name
and email address. We will automatically send your friend a one-time email
inviting him or her to visit the Site. CC Stock Video stores this information
for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email and tracking the success of
our referral program.
