Privacy Policy
Tune 1000 is committed to protecting your privacy. Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect information from you and how we use that information. We make every effort to ensure that your visit to our website is fun, private and secure.
Collecting Information
Tune 1000 only seeks to collect as much information from you as is necessary for us to fulfill the purpose for which we are collecting the information.
For example, to properly process your online order we will require your name, e-mail address, mailing address, credit card number and its expiration date. We will provide this information to third parties, such as credit card processing and order fulfillment and fraud detection agencies or as otherwise required to enable us to fulfill your online orders or to provide refunds or credits for purchases that you have made.
When you enter an Tune 1000 contest or promotion, we may require certain information so that we will be able to notify you, should you be selected as the winner or to comply with applicable laws. If you choose not to receive Tune 1000 e-mail updates when you enter a contest or promotion, it will not affect your chances of winning.
There are also opportunities for you to provide optional personal information such as your music preferences, gender, age, address, education level, marital status, household information, employment information, income, and Internet access habits. Please remember that unless we advise you otherwise, this type of information is optional and you do not have to enter it to enjoy our web site. We may use this type of information to compile aggregate statistics about our customers, sales, traffic patterns and related web site information. We use this information to create a better and more exciting experience for all our visitors. We may provide this information to third parties in aggregate form for marketing, research, statistical or other purposes but in no event will the information be provided to any third party in a form that would identify you personally without your prior consent.
In order to notify you about new Tune 1000 features or special offers or important functionality changes to the website, we will need your e-mail address.
