required by
contract to keep
confidential the information received on behalf of
A2Stream and may not use it for any purpose other than to
carry out
the services they are performing for A2Stream.
Non account holders may view your mail if you designated them as recipients.
We do not store your credit card
or
other payment information on our site. Payment for services
are made
through one of our online transaction partners: PayPal or

We may share with third parties
non-personal, aggregated information, such as demographic
and profile
data of the user community at large.
Every account holder is provided
with a
My Account section in the mailVU service. It is the
responsibility
of
each user to ensure the information is correct and current.
Users
are responsible for the accuracy of their
account Preferences. You
may update or correct these selections as any time by
logging into
your account
and making the changes on the My Account page. You may
also leave the optional information fields blank.
A mailVU account holder cannot
opt-out
of communications primarily for the purpose of administering
order
completion, support, software warnings and updates, or other
administrative and transactional notices as
the primary purpose of
these communications is not promotional in nature.
The user must specify the
deletion time
period of each multimedia mail. The files will be deleted
from the
A2Stream servers at the earlier of the user defined
date/views, or
the time frame associated with
your account type.
The mailVU.com site is
designed to be
accessible 24x7 every day of the year unless down for
system
maintenance. To protect your privacy and security on
accounts, we
will take reasonable steps to verify
your identity, such as requiring
username and password, before granting access to the data.
To view
and modify your personal information you may edit the
selections in
the My Account area of the service.
A2Stream takes seriously the
trust you
place in us. We will keep your private data secure
consistent
with
current industry standards. To prevent unauthorized access
or
disclosure, to maintain data accuracy,
and to ensure the appropriate
use of the information, A2Stream utilizes appropriate
physical,
technical,
and administrative procedures to safeguard the
information
we collect.
Personal information, once
transmitted
to us, will be stored on computers that only selected
personnel
and
contractors have access to via password. These computer
systems are
located in controlled facilities
which have limited access. Your
mail messages are limited-access, where access is gained
through an
obscured URL system. This obscured URL makes it difficult if
not
impossible for a third party to guess the
URL address of your content
without an invitation from you including the relevant URL.
However,
unless
the videos and content are password protected, your invitees
may forward the URL link to other parties and
a possibility exists
that an unauthorized third party could discover your videos
and/or
content.
We may occasionally update our
Privacy
Policy to reflect changes in our practices and services.
When we do,
we will also revise the Update date located at the
beginning of this
Policy. We encourage you to periodically
review this Policy and
become aware of modifications. If we make material changes
in the
way we collect, use,
or share your personal information, we will
notify you for sending an email to the email address you
most
recently provided to us and/or by prominently posting
notice of the
changes on our website. Your continued use
of the mailVU.com site
constitutes your agreement to this Policy and any updates.
