uImbibe Privacy Notice
Personal Information

can watch videos on UImbibe without having a UImbibe Account or a
PHPBucket Account. You also can contact us through the UImbibe Help Center
or by emailing us directly without having to register for an account.
- Your UImbibe Account. For
some activities on UImbibe, like uploading videos, posting comments,
flagging videos, or watching restricted videos, you need a uImbibe 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 PHPBucket Account, additionally, allows you to
access other PHPBucket services that require registration.
- Usage Information. When
you use UImbibe, 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 UImbibe (including UI elements, settings). If
you are logged in, we may associate that information with your UImbibe
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 UImbibe 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 UImbibe when
the Uploader automatically checks for updates and will be used to update
your version of the Uploader.

information to operate, maintain, and improve the features and
functionality of UImbibe, 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 UImbibe changes or
for customer service purposes). You also can choose how often UImbibe
sends you email updates in your UImbibe Account settings page.

sweepstakes, and contests.

last logged into your UImbibe Account, your age (if you choose to make it
public), the country and the number of videos you have watched.
