Privacy Statement
VenueVJ.com is a Web site owned and operated by Digital 1 Audio (VENUE VJ), a wholly owned subsidiary of Digital 1 Media, Inc. Please
read these statements, terms and conditions carefully before using the VenueVJ.com site. By accessing or using this site, you
acknowledge and agree to the disclaimers, terms and conditions set forth below. If you do not agree, please do not use this site.
Please read the following carefully.
VENUE VJ gathers certain types of information about the people who download and use VENUE VJ products. The following policy explains
what information is captured, how it is handled and how to change it. The policy is subject to change from time to time so please
check back periodically.
Gather and Tracked Information
VENUE VJ gathers two types of information about users: data that users provide through voluntary registrations on our site and in
certain contests and sweepstakes; and data VENUE VJ gathers through aggregating tracking information derived mainly by tallying page
views throughout our sites and click-throughs on our newsletters or advertisements. Such information enables us to better tailor our
content to customer needs and to help our advertisers better understand the demographics of our audience. Because VENUE VJ derives
its revenue from VenueVJ.com mainly from advertising and partnership revenue sharing, providing such aggregated demographic data is
essential to keeping our service free.
Registration
During registration the user is required to supply a name and email address, and at times, other information. In addition, the user
can choose to subscribe to receive the VENUE VJ electronic newsletter and offers of interest from third parties.
Surveys
Occasionally VENUE VJ conducts user surveys to better target our content to our audience. We sometimes share the aggregated
demographic information in these surveys with our advertisers and partners.
Contests and Sweepstakes
VENUE VJ offers contests and sweepstakes in which we request certain information. At a minimum, the required information includes
name and email address; in some cases, the user must answer mandatory survey questions about a range of other data. The information
gathered in the entry form is used to verify the entrant.s identity, to send the entrant an email notification that their entry has
been received, and to contact winners and/or prize recipients. There are two situations in which VENUE VJ will divulge this
information to a third party:
A user may expressly choose to receive additional information from the contest sponsor, in which case the user.s personally
identifiable information is divulged to the advertiser.
Some of the contests may be hosted on the VenueVJ.com site but administered by the sponsor; in such cases, the information a user
provides is passed on to the third party.
Because the rules and terms of each contest can vary, all information about each contest is clearly posted during the event. All
contests and sweepstakes are conducted in full accordance with United States federal and state laws.
Electronic Newsletters
VENUE VJ offers a free VENUE VJ electronic newsletter to users who provide an email address and leave a check in the box next to the
statement "PERIODICALLY SEND ME THE VENUE VJ NEWSLETTER." Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by following the
instructions contained at the end of every newsletter. Users can subscribe to the newsletters at the time of registration and
thereafter by going to the Subscribe page of our site.
Third Party Marketing Offers
VENUE VJ enables the delivery of interesting third party marketing and product offerings via email to registered recipients. Users
have an opportunity to opt-out of receiving communications at the point of registration by deleting the check in the box next to
"NOTIFY ME OF PRODUCT UPDATES AND SPECIAL OFFERS OF POTENTIAL INTEREST FROM VENUE VJ AND ITS PARTNERS" or by contacting our
"subscribe" page. Please note that if users subsequently wish to remove their information from third party databases, it may be
necessary for the users to contact the third party directly and follow their unsubscribe procedures. Any user experiencing difficulty
unsubscribing should contact us at customerservice.com.

Usage Tracking
VENUE VJ tracks user traffic patterns throughout our site for the purpose of determining which sections of our website are most
popular.
Counters
On occasion, VENUE VJ uses a counter to track user traffic patterns on our Web site. A counter provides no user identifiable data but
allows VENUE VJ to count which pages have been viewed. VENUE VJ does not aggregate or track personally identifiable information when
using a counter, only usage patterns. This information is collected for internal marketing and sales efforts to better target
advertisements and other content to our users in an effort to create a personally relevant internet experience for each user. The
data is also used to predict responses to advertisements, to help determine which ads perform best and which content is most
appropriate for different users. This data may be shared with third party partners of VENUE VJ on a blind basis, but is not provided
to third parties in connection with personally identifiable information which would allow a third party to directly link such
information to a particular user.
Cookies
VenueVJ.com uses your browser to set a "cookie" on your system. A cookie is a unique number that is recorded and stored on a user.s
computer in their web browser.s cookie file. Cookies do not harm computers and can.t read data off your hard disk. They simply allow
us to measure and report the click through rate and provide important insight that is used to provide a more enriching experience for
the computing public. While aggregate counts of click through behavior are provided to advertisers and revenue sharing partners, the
cookie will not, in any way, be associated with any personal data about the user. An advertiser will never know that a specific user
clicked their ad.
While cookies are not essential to VENUE VJ.s continued success, they do help us to reach several of our key goals, to provide a more
fulfilling, results oriented experience on our Web site, reducing repetition of advertising and increasing the amount of relevant
data viewed by users.
A user may choose to opt-out of receiving the benefits associated with our use of cookies at any time by following a simple procedure
to manually delete his or her cookies. Users should refer to their respective browser.s user manual for instructions on taking such
action.
VenueVJ.com uses cookies to track user traffic patterns (as described above), when you register as a VENUE VJ member, and when you
click an ad.
Registration: When you register, VenueVJ.com uses a cookie to store a unique, random user ID. We do not store passwords or any
personal information about you. We use this ID to identify you anonymously in our database and to track the pages you visit on our
site. We encrypt the user ID for added security.
Ads: VENUE VJ.s advertising system delivers a one-time cookie to better track ad impressions and click rates.
Banner Advertisements
VENUE VJ.s VENUE VJ MP3 Digital Music Players display banner advertising streamed from third-party ad networks. During the process of
delivering an ad to you, no personally identifiable information about you, such as name, address, phone number, or email address is
collected. However, some types of non-personally identifiable information are collected, such as the service provider you use to
connect to the Internet, your browser type, or your computer operating system (Mac OS or Windows, for example). The information
collected is used for the purpose of targeting ads and measuring ad effectiveness on behalf of our advertisers. To find out more
about how these companies manage the privacy of information in conjunction with serving ads on this site or in our products, please
visit www.everad.com.
Use of Information
VENUE VJ uses the information voluntarily given by our users to enhance their experience on our site, whether to provide interactive
or personalized elements on the site or to better prepare future content based on the interests of our users. VENUE VJ also uses the
information to attract advertisers and will convey our database of e-mail names and addresses to third party retailers making target
specific offers of potential interest to our users.
VENUE VJ uses information that users voluntarily provide in order to send out electronic newsletters and to enable users to
participate in contests. We send out newsletters to subscribers on a regular schedule, and occasionally send out special editions
when we think subscribers might be particularly interested in something. We use tracking information to determine which areas of our
sites users like and don.t like based on traffic to those areas. VENUE VJ does not track what individual users read, but rather how
well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you. VENUE VJ creates aggregate reports on user
demographics and traffic patterns for advertisers and partners. This allows our advertisers to advertise more effectively, and allows
our users to receive advertisements that are pertinent to their needs.
Sharing of Information
VENUE VJ uses the above-described information to tailor our content to suit your needs and help our advertisers better understand our
audience.s demographics. This is essential to keeping our service free. We also use the information to send targeted information and
advertising to the user in e-mail or newsletter format, and to contact users for feedback and surveys.
VENUE VJ may share the registration information provided by users with 1) companies providing products similar to VENUE VJ products
and 2) companies that target specific offers of potential interest to users sharing our user demographics. You may from time to time
be contacted so that you can receive information or special offers from these companies. If you do not want to receive mailings and
offers, let us know by removing the check marks in the boxes next to the following statements on our registration page: "PERIODICALLY
SEND ME THE VENUE VJ NEWSLETTER" and "NOTIFY ME OF PRODUCT UPDATES AND SPECIAL OFFERS OF POTENTIAL INTEREST FROM VENUE VJ AND ITS
