This Privacy Policy also applies to those who interact with the services we provide, which include mobile and digital advertising, advertising in and around Venues, any software development kits (“SDKs”) that we provide to our advertising network (“Exhibitors”), Venues and/or advertisers (“Brands”) for incorporation into their applications, information and advertising delivered on screens located in and around Venues, and interactive services such as “text to screen” that we may provide at Venues or elsewhere. Collectively, the Site and our services are the “Services”. You can learn more about our Services here.

We collect information in multiple ways, including when you provide information directly to us; when we passively collect information from or about you, such as from your browser or device; and from third parties. We may combine all of the information we collect from or about you from these various sources.

Information You Provide Directly to Us. We will collect any information that you provide to us.

For example, if you contact us, including via our MovieBot chat, when you sign an insertion order, and when you fill out our “contact us” form online, we may collect certain information, 2 such as your name, email address, company name, phone number, location, and the contents of any message you send; if you attend a movie or sports event at one of our Venues, or participate in an event or activity, we may collect information such as your email address.

You can choose not to provide such information, but, in general, most of the information we request from you is required for us to provide the Services and the lack of such information will prevent us from doing so. We will collect, use, transfer and disclose this Information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Information that Is Automatically Collected. We also collect information through automated and technical means as you browse our Sites, use our Apps, attend movies and/or sporting events at Venues, or otherwise use the Services.
