Mainstream Latinos Privacy Policy
Thank you for visiting MainStream Latinos. MainStream Latinos Network is a joint venture
between MainStream Media Ent., Inc. and MainStream Latinos (collectively “we” or “us”). Your
privacy is important to us. To help protect your privacy, we provide this notice explaining our
online information practices and the choices you can make about the collection and use of the
personally identifiable information collected on our online and mobile websites, services, and
applications (“Site” or “Sites”). By using the Sites, you expressly consent to our collection, use,
disclosure, and retention of your personal information as described in this notice.
For certain offerings on our Sites, there may be additional notices about information practices
and choices. Please read those additional privacy disclosures to understand how they apply to
you.
THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Registration and account information. At some Sites, you can order products, play games, read
and submit reviews, enter contests, vote in polls, view and rate videos, TV shows and other
content, or otherwise express an opinion, subscribe to one of our services such as our online
newsletters, or participate in one of our online forums or communities. The types of personally
identifiable information that you provide as part of your account may include: name, address, email
address, telephone number, fax number, credit card and billing information, information
about your interest in and use of various content, products, programs, and services, and other
information that you provide to us. In the course of using our Sites, we may ask you to create
an account or register for an application by providing us with certain personally identifiable
information that can be used to contact or identify you, as well as to administer your account.
Information about others/inviting friends. At some of our Sites, you can submit information about
other people. For example, you might submit a person’s name and e-mail address to share
content or recommendations, send an electronic greeting card and, if you order a gift online and
want it sent directly to the recipient, you might submit the recipient’s name and address. The
types of personally identifiable information that may be collected about other people as part of
this process include recipient’s name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, and
information about the recipient’s interest in and use of various content, products, programs, and
services.
Some of our Sites also allow you to invite your friends to join our services and to connect with
you through social media features. Inviting friends is always optional. To do so, you may provide
their contact information or may enter your log-in credentials to import e-mail addresses or
usernames from your address book from other sites that support such functionality (e.g.,
Yahoo!, Gmail, Facebook). You select the friends you want to invite to share in this experience.
Information from other sources. We may, on occasion, combine information we receive online
with outside records and use such information in accordance with this Privacy Policy, such as to
enhance our ability to market to you products or services that may be of interest to you.
Social media. You can also engage with our content and other offerings, such as videos,
contests, games and activities, on or through third-party social media sites, plug-ins and
applications, such as those offered by Facebook and others. You may also choose to link your
account with us to third party social media sites. When you link your account or engage with our
content on or through third party social media sites, services, plug-ins, or applications you may
allow us to have ongoing access to certain information from your social media account (e.g.,
name, e-mail address, profile photo, gender, birthday, location, your list of friends and their
contact information, people you follow and/or who follow you, the posts or the ‘likes’ you make).
We may also receive non-personally identifiable information (e.g., content viewed, game
performance, high scores, and information about advertisements within the content you have
been shown or may have clicked on, etc.) from your interaction with our content.
When you provide information to a Site from your social media account, it can help enable us to
do things like (i) give you exclusive content, (ii) personalize your online experience with us
within and outside our Sites, and (iii) contact you through the social media sites or directly with
the latest news, special offerings, and rewards. By providing such information, you consent to
the use of the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
If you post information or content, such as by posting photos, commenting on a blog, or
participating in chat functions or online forums or communities at our Sites, or when you interact
with our Sites through social media sites, plug-ins or other applications, depending on your
privacy settings, this information may become public on the Internet. Therefore, we cannot
prevent further use of this information. You can control what data you share through privacy
settings available on some social media sites. For more information about how you can
customize your privacy settings and how third party social media sites handle your personally
identifiable information, please refer to their privacy help guides, privacy policies and terms of
use.
Information collection from mobile devices. If you access our Sites, on your mobile telephone or
other mobile device, we also may collect your unique device identifier and mobile device IP
address (e.g. MAC address), as well as information about your device’s operating system,
mobile carrier, and mobile Internet browsers, your precise location information, and other
information described in this Policy.
Technical and usage information. We also collect certain non-personally identifiable information
when you use our Sites, including when you view content and videos on our Sites, such as the
type of browser you are using (e.g., Firefox, Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you
are using (e.g., Windows, Mac OS, iOS, and Android), the domain name of your Internet service
provider or mobile carrier, IP address, device ID and other technical attributes related to your
device, and certain usage information. For example, some content on our Sites is limited to
users in the United States and the US territories. Your device IP address is tested by the Site so
that MainStream Latinos can determine whether you are located in the United States or the US
territories.

requested information will be able to order products, programs, and services, or otherwise
participate in the Site’s activities and offerings.

COOKIES AND OTHER TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Cookies and web beacons. We, and our affiliates, third party service providers, and our
business partners may send “cookies” to your computer or use similar technologies to support
and enhance your online experience at our Sites, including by helping us collect and understand
usage and performance information and to display and measure advertisements. For example,
“cookies” are files that can identify you as a unique customer and store your personal
preferences as well as technical information (including click through and click stream data).
Cookies manage and measure the performance of advertisements displayed on or delivered by
or through us and/or other networks or sites. Cookies can either be persistent (i.e., they remain
on your computer until you delete them) or temporary (i.e., they last only until you close your
browser).
Some of our Sites may use locally stored objects (sometimes referred to as “Flash cookies”) to
provide certain content, such as video on demand, video clips, or animation. Adobe’s Flash
player and similar applications use this technology to remember settings, preferences, and
usage similar to browser cookies. Flash cookies are not managed through your web browser,
but you can access your Flash management tools from Adobe’s website at http://
www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html.
We may also use “web beacons” that monitor your use of our Sites. Web beacons (or web
bugs) are small strings of code that provide a method for delivering a graphic image on a web
page for the purpose of transferring data, such as the IP (Internet Protocol) address of the
computer that downloaded the page on which the web beacon appears, the URL (Uniform
Resource Locator) of the page on which the web beacon appears, the time the page containing
the web beacon was viewed, the types of browser that fetched the web beacon and the
identification number of any cookie on the computer previously placed by that server.
When corresponding with you via HTML capable email, web beacons let us know whether you
received and opened our email.
On their own, cookies or web beacons generally do not contain or reveal any personally
identifiable information. However, if you choose to furnish personally identifiable information, this
information can be linked to the data stored in the cookies/web beacons.
Managing cookies and web beacons and Do Not Track. By accepting this Privacy Policy, you
specifically agree to our use of cookies and web beacons as described herein. You may adjust
your browser to reject cookies from us or from any other website. Additionally, by setting your
web browser to display HTML emails as text only, you may be able to prevent the use of some
web beacons. Please consult the “Help” section of your browser for more information. However,
certain areas of our Sites can only be accessed in conjunction with cookies or similar devices
and you should be aware that disabling cookies or similar devices might prevent you from
accessing some of our content or Site features. We do not currently take actions to respond to
Do Not Track signals because a uniform technological standard has not yet been developed.
We continue to review new technologies and may adopt a standard once one is created.
For more information about cookies and how browser settings can be changed to reject them,
you should go to your web browser’s Help menu.
Google Analytics, one of our service providers, provides its own opt-out process. You can find
out more information about Google Analytics’ cookies at https://developers.google.com/
analytics/resources/concepts/gaConceptsCookies. You can control the use of Google Analytics
relating to your use of our Sites, by downloading an installing the browser-plug in available at
http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

device, follow the device and/or applicable settings on your mobile device.
If you decide not to accept cookies from our Sites or disable certain technologies, you may not
be able to take advantage of all of the features of our Sites.
OUR COMMITMENT TO SECURITY

presented solely for the purpose of providing entertainment and information and promoting
programs, films, music, and other products available in the United States, its territories,

These Terms of Use shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws
of the State of Illinois, as they are applied to agreements entered into and to be performed
entirely within Illinois.
21. Disputes/Arbitration. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY
SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A
LAWSUIT IN COURT
If a dispute arises between you and us, you agree to provide us with notice of the dispute via
email to info@mainstreammediaent.com. Upon our receipt of the notice, the parties shall have a
period of sixty (60) days to attempt to resolve the dispute informally before either may resort to
the other alternatives described in this Section.
With the exception of class actions (further discussed in Section 22), claims to enforce
intellectual property rights (patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but
not privacy or publicity rights), and claims of piracy or unauthorized use of the Site, any dispute
of any kind between you and any of our Companies arising under these Terms of Use or in
connection with your use of the Sites (“Dispute”), if unresolved through informal discussions
within sixty (60) days of receipt of notice, shall be resolved by binding arbitration in the state in
which you reside.
Both parties reserve the right to seek a preliminary injunction or temporary restraining order
from a federal or state court in the United States. However, after such request for relief has
been heard by such court, the remainder of the Dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration as
set forth herein. We reserve the right to demand any remedy for violations of these Terms of
Use and/or any other rules and regulations set forth on the Sites, including without limitation the
right to block access from a particular Internet protocol (IP) address.
Any arbitrator proceeding over a Dispute shall be a retired judge or justice of any state or
federal court with substantial experience in the subject matter relevant to the matter in dispute
and shall follow Illinois law in adjudicating the dispute. The parties agree that an arbitrator
proceeding over a Dispute shall be instructed, whenever practicable, to resolve threshold legal
issues by way of motions filed by the parties. The parties also agree that they will follow JAMS’s
streamlined arbitration rules and procedures then in effect in arbitrating any Dispute, except to
the extent that the JAMS rules are inconsistent with this Agreement or the class action waiver
described below. The JAMS rules are available at www.jamsadr.com.
The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority
to resolve all Disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability
or formation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this
Agreement is void or voidable, or whether a claim is subject to arbitration. The arbitrator shall be
empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The
arbitrator’s award shall be written, and binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment
in any court of competent jurisdiction.
If the claim you wish to assert against us is less than $10,000, then, at your election, (i) the
arbitration may proceed in-person, by telephone, or by written briefs or (ii) you may in lieu of
arbitration bring your claim in small claims court. If either party files a claim in state or federal
court that is required by this Agreement to have been brought to arbitration, then the other party
shall be entitled to his/her/its reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in successfully compelling
arbitration.
To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of the filing fee for a lawsuit,
MainStream Latinos will pay the additional cost of the filing fee.
22. Class Action Waiver. The parties agree that they will resolve their Disputes on an
individual basis, and that any claims brought under this agreement or in connection with the
Sites must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in
any purported class, collective, or representative proceeding. The parties further agree that
they shall not participate in any class action (existing or future) brought by any third party arising
under this agreement or in connection with the Sites. If any court or arbitrator determines that
the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that
an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then such class action is not subject to arbitration
and must be litigated in state or federal court in Los Angeles County in the state of Illinois.
23. Severability. If any provision of these Terms of Use shall be unlawful, void, or for any
reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable for this agreement and
shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. This is the entire
agreement between the parties relating to the matters contained herein.
