MGA Global Privacy Policy

Date: March 16th, 2023

We at MGA Entertainment, Inc., and our affiliates and subsidiaries (“MGA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) understand that you care about how the information you provide us is used and shared. This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) describes the types of Personal Information that we collect, how we use it, how and when it may be shared, and the rights and choices you have with respect to your information. It also explains how we communicate with you and how you can make requests or submit inquires to us about your information. Our goal is to help you understand all of this, as part of our commitment to maintaining your trust.

This Policy (“Policy”) relates to the information collection and use practices of MGA in connection with our online services, including services available on https://www.mgae.com/ or any other websites, pages, features, or content we own or operate (the “Sites”), our mobile/tablet applications (“Apps”), and any other MGA products and services offered through any other websites and mobile applications that direct you to this Privacy Policy (collectively, including the Sites and the Apps, the “Services”).

1. Privacy Policy Acceptance

By accessing and using our Services, you are agreeing to the terms of this Policy. Where we require your consent to process your Personal Information, we will ask for your consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your Personal Information in advance, and such consent is voluntary and can be withdrawn at any time. However, if you withdraw such consent, MGA may not be able to provide you Services.

If you do not agree with or you are not comfortable with any part of this Policy, please immediately discontinue access or use of our Services.

We may change this Policy from time to time. If we make a change to this Policy that we believe materially affects how we process your Personal Information or reduce your rights, we will provide you with notice. We may also provide “just-in-time” disclosure or additional information about our data collection, use and sharing practices of specific Services. These notices may supplement or clarify MGA’s privacy practices or may provide you with additional choices about how we process your Personal Information.

2. What Personal Information Do We Collect?

As you use our Services, MGA collects certain information about you and your use of the Services. This information falls into three primary categories: (1) information you voluntarily provide us, (2) information we collect from you automatically and (3) information we obtain from third parties. Personal Information is any information that identifies or makes an individual identifiable.

Information You Voluntarily Provide

    Account Registration: information relating to the creation of an account on our Sites or Apps, such as, first and last name, email address, postal address, phone number, and/or a unique individual password. By submitting a telephone number to MGA you agree that a representative of MGA can contact you at the number you provide, potentially using automated technology (including texts/SMS messaging) or a pre-recorded message.

    Information Collected Via Authorized Access: if you provide your permission, we may collect and store any Personal Information you provide while using our Services (e.g., by authorizing us to access to your device's camera, photo album, and microphone).

You may disable our use of certain location data through your device or browser settings.

Information Collected From Other Sources

From time to time, we may obtain information about you from third party sources as required or permitted by law. For instances, we may receive information about you from other sources to help us correct or supplement our records, improve the quality or personalization of our Services to you, and prevent or detect fraud. We may also collect Personal Information about you that we receive from our partners, group members or other third parties.

6. How Does MGA Handle Children’s Information?

When our Site or App collects age, and there is an age in your jurisdiction under which parental consent or authorization is required to use the Service, we will either block users under that age or will ask them to provide consent or authorization from a parent or guardian before they can use it. We will not knowingly ask children under that age to provide more data than is required to provide for the product.

When a parent or legal guardian completes a child’s registration or otherwise provides us with a child’s Personal Information, MGA will consider this to be direct notice to you regarding Personal Information collection. The data will be used only for MGA Services, and will not be sold, rented, or otherwise disclosed to any company outside of MGA, its affiliated marketing partners, and companies acting as our agents to help us provide Services requested by you or the child. We will process Personal Information such as the child’s first and last name, mailing address, gender, date of birth, email address and phone number, as relevant to the Services that have been requested. The data will be used only for MGA Services, and will not be sold, rented, or otherwise disclosed to any company outside of MGA, its affiliated marketing partners, and companies acting as our agents to help us provide Services requested by you or the child.

Parents or guardians can change or revoke the consent choices previously made, and review, edit, or request the deletion of the personal data of the children for whom they provided consent or authorization.

We will send you “direct notice” if there is a change to the way we will use your child’s information that is not covered by this Policy. Our notice will state that your consent is required for the collection, use, and disclosure of the Personal Information, and will provide the necessary steps as to how you can give your consent. We will provide details on the specific Personal Information that we want to collect and how it might be disclosed to others. The direct notice will contain a link back to this privacy policy. If you do not consent within a reasonable time, we will delete the parent’s online contact information from your records.

Parents or legal guardians who have questions about personal information that may have been submitted by a child, or to exercise the rights as set forth above, should email us at privacy@mgae.com, or contact us toll-free at: 1-800-222-4685.

7. Information About Cookies and Other Similar Tracking Technologies

Persistent cookies enable us to track and target the interest of our users to enhance the experience on our Sites.

The following types of cookies are used on our Sites:

    Strictly Necessary Cookies. These cookies are essential because they enable you to use our Sites as you reasonably expect. For example, strictly necessary cookies allow you to access secure areas on our Sites and provided necessary security functions. Without these cookies, some Sites features cannot be provided.

We (or third-party data or ad networks we work with) may use web beacons alone or in conjunction with cookies to compile information about our Services, or other information we or they have collected. Web beacons are tiny graphic objects that are embedded in a web page or email and are usually invisible to the user but allow checking that a user has viewed the page or email. Web beacons may be used within the Services to track web page visits or form submissions. In some cases, we tie the information gathered by web beacons to Personal Information.

We also use Local Shared Objects, such as Flash cookies, AND/OR Local Storage, such as HTML5, to store content information and preferences.

Do Not Track. Some Internet browsers - like Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari - include the ability to transmit "Do Not Track" or "DNT" signals. Since uniform standards for "DNT" signals have not been adopted, our Sites do not currently process or respond to "DNT" signals.

8. Links to Other Third Party Websites

Our Services may contain links to third-party websites. We have no control over the privacy practices or the content of these websites or any third-party offering, site or other products and services used in connection with our Services. The inclusion of a link does not imply endorsement of the linked site or service by us or by our affiliates. The third parties you interact with may have their own privacy policies, and MGA is not responsible for their operations or their use of information they collect. We encourage you to check the applicable third-party privacy policy and terms of use when visiting or using any third-party services.

9. How Does MGA Protect My Information?

We maintain our Services and all associated data with technical, administrative, and physical safeguards to protect against loss, unauthorized access, destruction, misuse, modification, and improper disclosure. Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. We cannot guarantee the security of our databases or the databases of the third parties with which we may share such information, nor can we guarantee that the information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted over the Internet. In particular, e-mail sent to us may not be secure, and you should therefore take special care in deciding what information you send to us via e-mail (and please do not send us sensitive information, such as payment card information or government issued IDs).

 

You are responsible for protecting your password(s) and maintaining the security of your browsers and devices. If you have any questions about the security of your interaction with us (if, for example, you feel that the security of any account you might have with us has been compromised), you can contact us at privacy@mgae.com.

10. How Long Does MGA Retain My Information?

We will retain your Personal Information for as long as needed to provide the applicable Services you use, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. We will retain and use information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our rights. We will cease to retain your Personal Information or remove the means by which the data can be associated with you as soon as it is reasonable to assume that such retention no longer serves the purpose for which the Personal Information was collected and is no longer necessary for legal or business purposes.

11. International Operations and Transfers of Personal Information

Our Services are operated in the United States and potentially elsewhere. Please be aware that your information, including your Personal Information, may be transferred to, processed, maintained, and used on computers, servers, and systems located outside your jurisdiction (including the United Stated), where the privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your jurisdiction. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your Personal Information is treated securely and in accordance with this Policy and no transfer of your Personal Information will take place to an organization or a country unless there are appropriate safeguards in place as required under the applicable data protection laws and ensuring the security of your Personal Information maintained. If you do not want your information transferred to or processed or maintained outside of the country or jurisdiction where you are located, you should not use the Site or Services.

12. What Are My Privacy Rights and Choices?

Depending on applicable law where you reside, you may be able to assert certain rights related to your personal information identified below. If any of the rights listed below are not provided under law for your jurisdiction, MGA has absolute discretion in providing you with those rights. Please note that some of the rights may vary depending on your country, province, or state of residence.

Your rights to personal information are not absolute. Depending upon the applicable law, access to your rights under the applicable law may be denied: (a) when denial of access is required or authorized by law; (b) when granting access would have a negative impact on another's privacy; (c) to protect our rights and properties, (d) where the request is frivolous or vexatious, or for other reasons.

Managing Communication Preferences. If you no longer want to receive direct marketing emails from us on a going-forward basis, you may opt-out of receiving these marketing-related emails by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in the communication or by contacting us as specified in the “Contact Us” section below. Direct marketing includes any communications to you that are only based on advertising or promoting our products and services.

You may sign up to receive communications about our products and services through your mobile device by submitting your mobile telephone number online or by texting us. By opting into our SMS Mobile Marketing program, you authorize MGA to send to your mobile phone number using automated technology text messages about our products, promotions, offers, and sales. No purchase is necessary to opt-in to our SMS Mobile Marketing Program and your opting in is not a condition to your purchasing goods or services from us. You understand that standard message and data rates may apply and that your carrier may charge your account with that carrier for text messages that you receive from us or send to us. MGA is not responsible for these charges. It is your responsibility to notify MGA if at any time you change your phone number, cancel your service, or transfer your number to another party. You can unsubscribe from our text messaging program at any time by replying "STOP" to any message that you receive from us.

Third-Party Advertising. If you do not want MGA to deploy cookies in your browser, you can opt out by setting your browser to reject cookies or to notify you when a website tries to set a cookie in your browser software. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Sites, but some features on the Sites will not function properly. To do this, follow the instructions provided by your browser (usually located within the "Help", "Tools" or "Edit" settings), or review the instructions provided by the browsers listed here: Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari Desktop, Safari Mobile, and Android browser. Please note, if you set your browser to disable cookies, you may not be able to access secure areas of the Sites and Services. Also, if you disable cookies other parts of the Services may not work properly. You can find more information about how to change your browser cookie settings at allaboutcookies.org.

Please note that if you do opt-out of receiving marketing-related communications from us, we may still send you messages for administrative or other purposes directly relating to your use of the Services, and you cannot opt-out from receiving those messages.

Third-Party Advertising. If you do not want MGA to deploy cookies in your browser, you can opt out by setting your browser to reject cookies or to notify you when a website tries to set a cookie in your browser software. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Sites, but some features on the Sites will not function properly. To do this, follow the instructions provided by your browser (usually located within the "Help", "Tools" or "Edit" settings), or review the instructions provided by the browsers listed here: Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari Desktop, Safari Mobile, and Android browser. Please note, if you set your browser to disable cookies, you may not be able to access secure areas of the Sites and Services. Also, if you disable cookies other parts of the Services may not work properly. You can find more information about how to change your browser cookie settings at allaboutcookies.org.

There are also additional tools available to manage third party cookies. Many advertising companies that collect information for interest-based advertising are members of the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) or the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI), both of which maintain websites where individuals can opt out of interest-based advertising from their members. To opt-out of website interest-based advertising provided by each organization’s respective participating companies, visit the DAA’s opt-out portal available at optout.aboutads.info/, the DAA of Canada’s opt-out portal available at youradchoices.ca/en/tools, or visit the NAI’s opt-out portal available at optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1. Residents of the European Union may opt-out of online behavioral advertising served by the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance’s participating member organizations by visiting youronlinechoices.eu/.

Also, if your browser supports it, you can turn on the Global Privacy Control to opt-out of the “sale” of your personal information under California’s CCPA.

All of the opt-out tools described in this subsection are provided by third parties, not by MGA. MGA does not control or operate these tools or the choices that advertisers and others provide through these tools. Please note that you may still receive third-party advertisements in MGA’s Services after using these opt-out tools, but the advertising you see may be less relevant to your interests.

Access and Portability. You may have the right to request that we provide you a copy of your Personal Information held by us. This information will be provided without undue delay subject to a potential fee associated with gathering of the information (as permitted by law), unless such provision adversely affects the rights and freedoms of others or there is an exception to such provision under applicable law. In certain circumstances, you may request to receive your personal information in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and to have us transfer your Personal Information directly to another data controller.

Correction and Deletion. You may have the right to correct, update or delete Personal Information that has been previously provided to us through our Services.

Withdraw Consent. To the extent the processing of your Personal Information is based on your consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time. Your withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of MGA’s processing based on consent before your withdrawal.

Restriction of Processing. In some jurisdictions, applicable law may give you the right to restrict or object to us processing or transferring your Personal Information under certain circumstances. We may continue to process your Personal Information if it is necessary for the defense of legal claims, or for any other exceptions permitted by applicable law.

Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling. MGA does not undertake any automated processing or profiling of your Personal Information, which produces legal or similarly significant effects on you, save for the exceptions applicable under relevant data protection laws.

How to Make a Privacy Request. You can make privacy rights requests relating to your Personal Information by logging into your account or by emailing us at privacy@mgae.com. For your protection, we may only respond to requests with respect to the Personal Information associated with the particular email address that you use to send us your request, and we may need to verify your identity before implementing your request. We may need to retain certain information for recordkeeping purposes and/or to complete any transactions that you began prior to requesting such change or deletion (e.g., when you make a purchase, you may not be able to change or delete the Personal Information provided until after the completion of such purchase).

How to Lodge a Complaint. If you believe that we have infringed your rights, we encourage you to first contact us so that we may try to resolve the issue or dispute informally. If you reside in the EEA, or the United Kingdom, you have the right to complain to a data protection authority about our collection and use of your Personal Information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority (contact details are available here.) If you reside in the UK, the relevant data protection authority is Information Commissioner's Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF, 0303 123 1113, casework@ico.org.uk.
