Website Privacy Policy

Frantic Films Corporation (“Frantic Films”) is committed to respecting the privacy concerns of its visitors to www.franticfilms.com (“the Website”). Frantic Films has created this privacy policy (the “Policy”) to establish guidelines that will govern the collection, use, protection and disclosure of the personal and non-personal information of its visitors. Frantic Films collects three kinds of information from this Website: (1) your voluntarily provided personal information; (2) anonymous non-personal information; and (3) “cookie”-based information.

(1) Personal Information: Frantic Films does not automatically collect personal information, such as name, address, phone number, email address and other personally identifiable information, from its visitors (“Personal Information”). From time to time, Frantic Films will collect Personal Information that is voluntarily provided by its visitors in filling out contest entry forms and subscribing to newsletters and other activities carried out on the Website. Frantic Films will only collect and use such Personal Information solely for the purpose(s) disclosed by Frantic Films at the time of collection and only after the visitor has voluntarily agreed to such collection and use, by clicking “I agree” on the online form or in writing if entering via faxed or mailed form. Frantic Films also sometimes use email addresses that have been voluntarily provided by its visitors to respond to visitors who communicate with us, to inform winners of contests or to subscribe to newsletters. All emails from Frantic to its visitors include instructions on how to discontinue receipt of emails, newsletters and other communication from Frantic Films and visitors can discontinue such communication at any time. Email addresses from visitors who wish to discontinue receipt of Frantic’s emails will be removed from Frantic Films’ distribution list and data bases. All Personal Information that may identify a visitor and has been collected with the visitor’s consent by Frantic Films is not disclosed in any identifiable form to any other party outside the company except for the fulfillment of the specific purpose identified to the visitor at the time of collection. However Frantic Films may disclose such information in anonymous, aggregated and non-personally identifiable form to other parties for marketing, advertising or other purposes and to better understand visitor’s use of the Website. At any time, a visitor may send an email to privacy@franticfilms.com to request that Personal Information be changed, removed or updated in Frantic Films’ databases. Visitors should exercise caution and discretion when they disclose personally identifiable information on this Website or any other website. Such information may be accessible by anyone and may result in the visitor receiving unsolicited messages from other people and/or companies. Although Frantic Films is committed to protecting the Personal Information provided to it by its visitors in compliance with this Privacy Policy, it cannot guarantee the security of information, whether personal or otherwise, that visitors disclose online.
