General
CORUS respects your privacy and believes the best way to serve you on the Internet
is with honesty, accountability and adherence to legal standards. We are sensitive
to the issue of privacy and have structured our online activities to maximize your
control over the disclosure of your own personally identifiable information. This
Site is for information purposes only and the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy relate
specifically to this Site and do not apply to websites operated by subsidiary and
holding companies of CORUS, or other third parties, which have their own terms of
use and privacy policies. Please read the respective sites’ terms and policies when
accessing those sites. This Privacy Policy Statement supplements our general Terms
of Use, which you must also read. By using our website (the "Site"), you agree to
be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy and by the Terms of Use. We may change
this Privacy Policy at any time by posting revisions to the Site, and your continued
use of the Site indicates your agreement to the revised terms. Accordingly, you
should check the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy from time to time to
keep informed of such amendments, and, if you do not agree to the terms of this
or any revised policy, please exit the Site immediately.
What Information is collected?
CORUS may collect two types of information: personally identifiable information
and aggregated non-personally identifiable information.
Personally identifiable information will include information such as your name,
username, address, postal code, telephone number, e-mail address, age, marital status,
income level, education level, intentions, preferences and opinions. CORUS does
not collect personally identifiable information about an individual, except when
individuals provide such specific information on a voluntary basis.
Aggregated information will include information that is anonymous such as the type
of browser you are using or other such non-personally identifiable information.
Why is the Information Collected?
CORUS may collect your personal information in order to enable CORUS to make general
improvements to the Site, ensure that content standards of the Site are rigorously
upheld, enable us to contact you and better serve your specific interests. We may
also request you to voluntarily provide personal information that is not required
to access features of our Site.
CORUS may transparently collect non-personally identifiable aggregate information
through the use of cookies or by other means. We use this information to assess
general usage patterns, including identifying repeat users, collect demographic
information, administer and make improvements to the Site to tailor our visitors'
experiences at the Site and display content according to their preferences so as
to make it more useful to you and other users. CORUS, our subsidiary and holding
companies and such other third party as we may designate reserve the right to use,
maintain, update, disclose and/or sell Aggregate Information to third parties.
What We Will and Will Not Do With the Information You Provide
CORUS uses information generally to compile statistical data, keep in contact with

(i) to notify visitors about updates to our Site; (ii) to identify our visitors’
preferences; (iii) to keep you informed about products and services (both ours and
third parties’) in which you have expressed an interest; (iv) to complete business
transactions; (v) to contact you as part of a promotion; (vi) to meet legal requirements;
(vii) to provide Internet security; and/or (viii) to analyze the collected information.
If you have entered and won one of CORUS' contests, CORUS and / or its sponsors
may publish your name and city of residence.
In the event that we sell a substantial portion of our business assets, our customer
information may be among the transferred assets. In such event, the purchaser will
inherit the confidentiality obligations posted herein.
CORUS works closely with a number of parties who may perform functions on our behalf,
including fulfilling orders, providing music streaming services or other third party
content, providing promotional materials to our users, sending e-mail, managing,
compiling and processing data, processing credit card payments or providing customer
service. We do not disclose your personally identifiable information to these parties
except to the extent necessary to enable them to provide the specific services to
you.
Other than for the specific purposes set forth in this Privacy Policy Statement,
we will not disclose your personal information to any third parties unless we obtain
your prior consent or are legally compelled to do so. In addition, we will not contact
you without your permission except as specified above or in connection with the
registration process. On the Site, you will be given the opportunity to indicate
whether you would like to receive e-mails, promotional and/or marketing information
about other products, services and offerings from CORUS and/or any third parties
