PRIVACY POLICY

This privacy statement was last updated in August 2018

Thank you for taking time to visit our Privacy Policy. We know privacy is important to our website visitors. As we continue to develop our web site and take advantage of new technologies to improve the services we provide, this policy likely will change, and such changes will be posted on this page of the website. We therefore encourage you to refer to this Policy on an ongoing basis so that you understand our current Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy is subject to the Terms of Use that govern your use of this Site, and all terms not defined in this Privacy Policy have the meanings set forth in the Terms of Use.

INFORMATION COLLECTED

GUESTS (WHEN YOU ARE NOT LOGGED IN)

As a visitor to Audience Rewards’ website, you are not required to provide any personally identifiable information – information that would tell us who you are specifically, such as your name, email address, or telephone number. We do monitor guest traffic patterns and site usage to help us develop the design and layout of the web site. We log IP addresses, ISPs and browser types for internal quality assurance matters and to assess technical capabilities of our site. The information is not tied to personally identifiable information about the specific user. By using the Audience Rewards website, you agree that Audience Rewards may collect and use this information. We may use and share any non-personally identifiable information collected from you without restriction.

MEMBERS (WHEN YOU ARE LOGGED IN)

During enrollment you are required to provide personally identifiable information. You may also submit answers to profile questions concerning your use and experience of live entertainment. When you sign in to your account, information about your activity on the Audience Rewards site is automatically generated. Audience Rewards may also collect personally identifiable information from you at several different points on the website, and through partner transactions affecting activity on your account.

TICKETING DATA

In order to properly award your Audience Rewards ShowPoints for individual ticket purchases or subscription purchases, Audience Rewards may require ticketing data from the authorized ticketing service of the presenting venue. By joining Audience Rewards and entering or providing your Audience Rewards number during the ticket purchase process, you agree that Audience Rewards may receive this information from its participating shows, venues, or presenters and their authorized ticketing systems. The ticketing information received may include your name, email, address, phone number, seat locations, event/show name, date of purchase, date of event, and amount spent. NO CREDIT CARD information is transmitted or stored during this process.

PROFILE

We store information that we collect through cookies, log files, and e-mail-embedded clear gifs and may also use tools such as Google Analytics. The information you provide helps us automatically recognize you when you return to our Website and helps protect you and us from fraud, comply with legal requirements, and to notify you of important changes to the program. We also use this information for internal review in aggregate and to provide you with a more personalized experience with the opportunities, resources and services that our program has to offer.

TRACKING

We use the information you submit to us in order to fulfill our obligations to you, administer the program, track your participation in the program, protect you from unauthorized use on your account, create targeted offers, protect our own rights as well as the rights and interests of affiliate organizations and other members, generate rewards as the program may offer including but not limited to ShowPoints, and communicate program related announcements as they pertain to you.

OFFERS AND UPDATES

We will occasionally send you information on products, services, special deals and promotions on behalf of the Program. Out of respect for your privacy, we present the option not to receive these types of communications. You may opt-out of these mailings by changing your email preferences in your profile or by clicking on the unsubscribe link provided within the email.

SERVICE RELATED ANNOUNCEMENTS

We will send you 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 e-mail. 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 to deactivate your account.

SURVEYS AND CONTESTS

To help us improve Audience Rewards and serve you better, from time to time we may e-mail surveys to you to learn more about your experience with our site. You are under no obligation to respond to these surveys. Audience Rewards may contract a reputable third party to facilitate the distribution of surveys, emails, or other promotion materials. Upon completion of these projects, all information is returned to Audience Rewards and these third parties are permitted to use contact information for the sole purpose of sending messages as instructed by Audience Rewards.

CHECK INS - DETERMINING AND SHARING LOCATION

Audience Rewards Check Ins relies on location based information to confirm and validate your proximity to eligible listings and events. Whenever you open and use/interact with the Audience Rewards mobile website or app on your mobile device, Audience Rewards will use the location-based information generated from your mobile device or browser (e.g., latitude and longitude, operating system) to deliver the Audience Rewards mobile experience (i.e. you will see a list of nearby locations, nearby available check in offers and requirements, and redemption opportunities). By using the Audience Rewards mobile/app platform, you agree and consent to provide Audience Rewards to collect location-based information relating to your interaction on the Audience Rewards mobile/app platform. This information will be used by the program to verify your location and award points for eligible check-ins, but will not be shared with other Audience Rewards members unless you specifically grant approval for Audience Rewards to share this information.

Each of your Audience Rewards Check Ins is saved to your “My Transactions/Activity” page, which allows you review your Check-Ins and Check-In locations and any applicable points earned for this promotion.

Subject to your phones settings, you can enable or disable Location Based Services. Please refer to your Mobile Carrier or Phone Manufacturer for more information on how to control Location Based Services for your device

We will also communicate with you in response to your inquiries, to provide the services you request, and to manage your account. Our communications will generally be limited to e-mail. We may retain copies of any communications we have with you.

HOW WE COLLECT AND STORE INFORMATION

LOG FILES

As is true of most Web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, referring/exit pages, date/time stamp, and click-stream data.

We do not link this automatically-collected data to personally identifiable information.

COOKIES

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies.

We use session cookies to identify you while you are logged in to your account. We use persistent cookies to retain definitions that affect your account’s “look and feel”. Neither cookie contains any personally identifiable information. If you reject cookies, you may still use our site, but your enjoyment of our site will be degraded. We do not honor “Do Not Track” signals.

CLEAR GIFS

We use clear gifs in our HTML-based e-mails to let us know which e-mails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

CONSENT

  • Stop your participation in the Program; this is the only way to completely stop receiving special offers and other communications from us.
  • Use an unsubscribe link in any of our e-mails to stop receiving future marketing e-mails.
