Personally identifiable information (also called personal information) is information that identifies you individually. It is our policy to collect only the personal information we need to receive payment for and to provide you with Sky Angel® Services, and to provide you with quality Web site Services. These are the specific types of information we collect from our customers and Web site visitors:
If you are a Sky Angel® customer, we collect information needed to Service your account, such as your name, address, age, telephone number, account number, subscriber plan, e-mail address, credit card account number, bank account number, social security number and other information you provide to us online or as a customer.
Your receiver collects information about the viewing choices that you and those in your household make, but that information is not associated with or linked with Sky Angel® Customer Account Information. This information may be summarized without identifying individual subscribers for the purpose, among other things, of measuring viewer interests, programming preferences and viewer penetration levels. We may share this summary information without personal identifying information with programmers, sponsors, and business partners.
Most of the Services on SkyAngel.com are available without our collection of any personally identifiable information from you at all.
Some of your information may be automatically collected by our Web servers as you browse our site, even if you are not a Sky Angel® customer. Our Web server automatically collects information known as “clickstream data,” such as the domain name of the site providing you with Internet access, the Internet protocol.
(IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet, your browser type and version, operating system and platform, the average time spent on our site, pages viewed, information searched for, access times and other relevant statistics.
We use this information in the aggregate to measure the use of our site and to administer and improve our site.
Customers and Web site visitors may subscribe to enewsletters, special event alerts and/or special offer notices, and have the option of unsubscribing from these free e-mail Services at any time. Sky Angel® Web site(s) may also be used to order products or Services; activate programming; or enter promotional drawings. Sky Angel® customers may also receive marketing and promotional information in the mail. In these cases, Sky Angel® collects any or all of the following personal information: first and last name, age, billing/mailing address, shipping address, phone number, e-mail address, credit card number/ expiration date (when purchasing goods or Services), and receiver identification information.
Sky Angel® customers may have the option of joining our Viewer Advisory. The Viewer Advisory Board provides Sky Angel® with valuable feedback about key advertising, service quality and availability issues, such as development of advertising copy, selection of advertising images, identification of advertising vendors and strategic partners, identification of opportunities for improvement in programming, online and offline customer Service, as well as other similar uses. Members of the Viewer Advisory Board give Sky Angel® feedback by completing one or two brief surveys each month. Sky Angel® only uses survey results to inform our efforts to enhance the Sky Angel® customer experience. We may also send Viewer Advisory Board members messages about issues of interest or special events. Information relating to Viewer Advisory Board membership, completed surveys and survey results remain confidential.

We take reasonable steps to require these third parties to maintain the confidentiality of your personal information and require them to adhere to this Privacy Policy.
We may share your personal information with affiliated business units, all of which are subject to this Privacy Policy.
If you decide to participate in the promotion, the personal information you submit may be used by Sky Angel® and that organization. The organization’s own privacy policy will govern its use of your personal information. Only the items or permits provided directly from Sky Angel under these joint promotions are covered by this Privacy Policy, and we expressly disclaim any liability for any other company or organization’s privacy practices. Before electing to participate in any such promotion, you have the responsibility of obtaining their privacy policies prior to taking any action. For each joint promotion, we will post a prominent notice where your personal information is requested, explaining how the different privacy policies will apply if you choose to participate in the joint promotion.
We may use or disclose your information as permitted by law to perform charge verifications, report or collect debts owed, obtain credit information or request credit history, or protect the rights, property or safety of Sky Angel®, our customers, our Web site, or its users.
To the extent permitted by law, we may disclose personally identifiable information to government authorities pursuant to a legal request, or to third parties pursuant to a subpoena or other legal process. Under the Communications Act, we may be required to disclose your personal information, including personally identifiable viewing information, in response to a court order. If such an order is sought by a government entity, the law requires that you be provided notice and the opportunity to contest the order in a court proceeding.
We protect your personal information by using industry-standard security technologies and internal procedures that limit access to our databases. No system, however, is completely secure; therefore, we do not and cannot guarantee the complete security and accuracy of your personal information.
