advertisers to inform them of the number of people who have seen and clicked on
their advertisements.

confidentiality guidelines.
We also use information about our members to better target
advertising banners and make the content more relevant to each member.
WMMA.TV cooperates with law enforcement agencies in
identifying those who use our services for illegal activities. We reserve the
right to release information about members who we believe are in violation of
our user agreement, even without a subpoena, warrant or court order. We also
reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we
reasonably believe to be unlawful.
Credit Cards
If you sign up for premium services, WMMA.TV will use your
credit card number in order to provide you with the services that you request.
Information collected by WMMA.TV is encrypted using SSL and is stored on secure
servers. Credit card transactions are processed by an established financial
institution. Access to credit card information at WMMA.TV is restricted to
authorized staff only, in a manner consistent with or exceeding industry
standards.
Remember that third-party vendors also sell products and
services via advertising on Martialarts.org, and their policies may differ from
those of WMMA.TV.
What are cookies and how does WMMA.TV use them?
WMMA.TV requires each member to enable cookies to login and
use our services.
What is a Cookie?
A cookie is a very small text file placed on your hard drive
- with your permission - by a web server.
Why do we use Cookies?
Dentification: We use cookies to identify you uniquely. For
example, this allows us to pre-populate your email address on the login page.
Tracking and Maintaining Session info: Once you have logged in we use the
cookie to distinguish between your mail session and that of the many other
people using our service. For example: After you have written a message and you
go to your Inbox, we need to display your Inbox and not somebody else's.
Setting cookies is currently the best method of maintaining session information
over the web.
Are cookies secure?
A cookie cannot contain program code, so it cannot be used
as a virus nor can it be used to extract data from your system. When a cookie
is set, only the server which set the cookie can access the information in that
cookie.
How do I change the way my browser handles cookies?
Most browsers allow three options for handling cookies: ®
Accept all cookies ® Warn before accepting a cookie. ® Reject all cookies. Our
web-based mail service will not function if your browser is set to accept
cookies. Instructions for enabling and disabling cookies can be found through
the help menu on most browsers. If you have continued trouble changing your
cookie settings, you may contact our support site for additional help.
How do third-party advertisers use my information?
When you join WMMA.TV, you have the option of signing up to
receive information from select third party sponsors. This information is a
good way to learn about special offers on the web. In order to provide this
service, we may share some of your information such as name and email address
with third party sponsors. All WMMA.TV third party sponsors are required to
sign confidentiality agreements which do not allow them to use your information
for any purpose other than what you have requested. If you have requested
promotional emails and have not logged into your account for a prolonged period
of time, WMMA.TV reserves the right to forward the requested promotional
materials to your alternate email address. WMMA.TV will not disclose your
alternate email address to any third parties. All promotional emails authorized
by WMMA.TV will include a removal procedure for you to discontinue receiving
further email offers. This allows you to change your mind about receiving
further emails at a later date. If you receive an email from a third party
stating that it is associated with WMMA.TV, yet you do not recall asking for
the information, please follow the third party's removal procedures. If this procedure
is not successful, please send an email to nhb@wmma.tv. Additionally, be aware
that when you click on ad banners, you may be brought to other sites not
operated by WMMA.TV. You are responsible for information you provide these
sites. We recommend that you review the privacy policy of any site that
requests personal information.
How does WMMA.TV protect the privacy of children younger
than 13?
We believe that it's especially important to protect
children's privacy online.
Note: WMMA.TV defines "children" as minors younger
than 13. We do not knowingly use any personal information from children without
obtaining express parental consent. Express parental consent means that WMMA.TV
obtains affirmative agreement from a parent or legal guardian, at the time of
signing up for new account. All general information collected from children is
used only for statistical analysis, feedback and those purposes described in
the signup process. We do not give children's personal information to third
parties, regardless of whether children request promotional opportunities
through us. Before signing up for a WMMA.TV account, we ask that children have
their parents read our Privacy Statement. Before and during the signup process,
we require children to include a parent or guardian in the process.
How do I access, change or delete information about myself?
During the Martialarts.org signup process, we ask you to
supply personal information, including your first name, last name, ZIP Code,
birth date and an alternate email address. We also ask if you would like to
receive promotional material from our sponsors and great offers from our
partners. If, at any time, you would like to stop receiving newsletters from
WMMA.TV or promotional emails from third parties (which you signed up for),
then follow the removal procedures at the end of the email. If this is not
successful, please contact us at nhb@wmma.tv.
How may I protect my privacy on the Internet and within
WMMA.TV?
1. Know the risks. If you provide your email address to
public domains such as chat rooms or newsgroups, or you provide it to websites
which don't respect your privacy, you may begin to receive unsolicited email.
Unsolicited email is also known as spam. Although WMMA.TV has strict rules
prohibiting spam and we do block certain known groups from sending unsolicited
messages to WMMA.TV members, it is generally a good idea to provide your email
address only to people or groups that you trust.
2. Educate yourself. Look for a privacy statement on every
site you visit on the Web, and search for information on how to protect your
privacy. Start with TRUSTe, an independent, nonprofit initiative dedicated to
building users' trust and confidence in the Internet.
3. Tell your children: "Never talk to strangers!"
Teach children not to give out their names or other personal information. Tell
them never to fill out online registration forms without your knowledge and
consent.
4. Use complex passwords. If your password is simple, it is
also simple for a hacker to break it and gain access to your email account or
other private areas. To protect your privacy, you should use complex passwords
consisting of very long and awkward keystroke combinations. This makes the
hacker's job much more difficult. We send reminders of your account passwords
only after the appropriate security questions have been answered, and then, we
will only send your password to the email address given during the signup
process. NEVER GIVE YOUR PASSWORD TO ANYONE. If someone claiming to represent
WMMA.TV in an email or chat room asks for your WMMA.TV password, DO NOT
RESPOND. The only time we ask for your password is via a web page, when you
need to access our system (such as the login screen). Please help us keep our
records current by updating your personal information when it changes. You can
access your personal information through the account/personal information
option when you're logged into your account.
5. Read a message on safe surfing provided by the Federal
Trade Commission. 6. Reduce spam (unsolicited email). One of the drawbacks of
surfing the Web, creating home pages and having an email account is that you
may receive spam -- the electronic version of junk mail. Visit this site for
more information on spam and how you can cut down on how much spam you receive.

CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, TORT, CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL
WMMA.TV OR ITS LICENSORS OR RESELLERS BE LIABLE TO USER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR
ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE USE OF OR THE
INABILITY TO USE THE WMMA.TV SERVICE, THE PERFORMANCE OF WMMA.TV SERVICE, OR
DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, BUSINESS PROFIT, BUSINESS STOPPAGE, LOSS OF DATA
OR BUSINESS INFORMATION, COMPUTER DAMAGE, OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM
UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR CHANGES MADE TO USER'S TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA, OR ANY
AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES. IN NO EVENT WILL WMMA.TV BE LIABLE
FOR ANY DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF WHAT WMMA.TV RECEIVED FROM USER FOR THE WMMA.TV
SERVICE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS LIMITATION AND EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO USER.
INFRINGEMENT.
User represents that the user id selected by the User, when
used alone or combined with a second or third level domain name, does not
interfere with the rights of any third party and is not being selected for any
unlawful purpose. User acknowledges and agrees that if such selection does
interfere with the rights of any third party or is being selected for any
unlawful purpose, WMMA.TV may immediately suspend the use of such WMMA.TV email
address, and User will indemnify and hold WMMA.TV harmless, in accordance with
the Indemnification section above, for any claim or demand against WMMA.TV that
arises out of such selection. User acknowledges and agrees that neither WMMA.TV
nor any of its licensors shall be liable to User in the event WMMA.TV is
ordered or required, as a result of a court order or legal settlement, or
contractual requirement with any licensor, to desist from using or permitting
the use of a particular domain name as part of an WMMA.TV email address. If as
a result of such action, User loses an email address, the User's sole remedy
shall be the receipt of a replacement WMMA.TV email address.
MODIFICATION. WMMA.TV reserves the right to modify the
Martialarts.org Service as described in the Agreement and on the site, and to
change the terms and conditions of the Agreement. WMMA.TV will post the new
Agreement and updated descriptions of the WMMA.TV Service on the site.
Continued use of the WMMA.TV Service after such postings shall be deemed an
acceptance by the User to be bound by the terms of the modified Agreement.
Users not wishing to be bound by the modified Agreement or WMMA.TV Service may
terminate the WMMA.TV Service pursuant to the Termination section below.
TERMINATION. WMMA.TV Services may be terminated in whole or
in part, effective immediately, by either WMMA.TV or User at any time upon
written notice to the other party. Upon termination, User's right to use the
WMMA.TV Service immediately ceases, and WMMA.TV is not obligated to forward any
unread or unsent messages to User or any third party. WMMA.TV shall not be
liable to User or any third party for termination of the WMMA.TV Service. In
the case of a terminated paid WMMA.TV Service ("Premium Service"), upon
written request to WMMA.TV, User shall receive at WMMA.TV's option, either i)
reimbursement of the pro-rata portion of the amount paid for the period
remaining on User's account for the terminated Premium Service; or ii) credit
for another Premium Service equivalent to the pro-rata portion of the amount
paid for the period remaining on User's account for the terminated Premium
Service. There shall be no reimbursement or credit if the WMMA.TV Service is
terminated due to User's violation of the terms of this Agreement. WMMA.TV
reserves the right to terminate User's email address in the event that
WMMA.TV's rights to use certain domain names or email addresses terminate or
expire, in which case User shall receive a replacement WMMA.TV email address.
In addition, WMMA.TV retains the right, at WMMA.TV's sole discretion, to
terminate any and all parts of the WMMA.TV Service provided to User, without
refunding User for any annual fees paid but not yet accrued, if it determines
that User has failed to comply with any of the terms of the Acceptable Use
Policy. If WMMA.TV determines that User has failed to comply with any of the
terms in Section (a) above, of the Acceptable Use Policy, WMMA.TV shall when
appropriate, (1) facilitate criminal prosecution against such User by referring
User's spamming activity to the appropriate legal authorities, and (2) bring a
civil action against such User, who shall be liable to WMMA.TV for any direct,
indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages incurred by WMMA.TV as
a result of User's spamming or other prohibited activity.
SEVERABILITY.
If any provision hereof shall at any time be held to be
void, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be construed as severable
and shall not in any way affect or render void, invalid or unenforceable any
other provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be carried out as
if such void, invalid or unenforceable provision were not part of this
Agreement.

of or related to this Service must commence within one (1) year after the cause
of action arose; otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.
