Liquid Media Group (Canada) Ltd. (“Liquid Meida”, also referred to herein as “us” and “we”) is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your Personal Information throughout your relationship with us. Like you, we care about how personal information is used across the Internet and treat your information in the same way we would want our own information to be treated. In this Privacy Policy (the “Policy”), capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meaning provided in our Terms of Service.
This Policy explains the types of Personal Information we collect from a user of Liquid Meida’s products and services, including but not limited to products and services made accessible through the Liquid Meida website or other technology platforms owned by Liquid Meida (collectively, the “Liquid Meida Services”), how the Personal Information is used and disclosed, and the steps we take to ensure that your Personal Information is handled appropriately in the course of providing the Liquid Meida Services.
By providing Personal Information to Liquid Meida, you agree and consent that we may collect, use, and disclose your Personal Information in accordance with this Policy. Unless permitted by law, Liquid Meida does not collect, use, or disclose Personal Information without consent.
What is Personal Information?
"Personal Information" means any information, recorded in any form, about an identifiable individual, other than business contact information (e.g., name, title, and business address). This Policy does not cover business contact information or aggregated data from which the identity of an individual cannot be determined. Liquid Meida retains the right to use business contact information or aggregated data in any ethical way that it determines appropriate.
Why Liquid Meida collects and uses Personal Information
Liquid Meida collects and uses Personal Information for the purposes of delivering the products and services you have requested, managing your account and providing you with customer support, performing research and analysis about your use of, or interest in our products, services, and content, or products, services or content offered by others, communicating with you by e-mail, postal mail, telephone and/or mobile devices or other technology platforms, enforcing our terms and conditions, managing our business and performing functions as otherwise described to you at the time Personal Information is collected.
The Personal Information Liquid Meida gathered from customers enables us to personalize and improve the Liquid Meida Services and to allow our users to set up a user account and profile that can be used to interact with other users through the Reelhouse website. In connection with the Liquid Meida website, we request and display some Personal Information to other users and visitors of the Liquid Meida website, which allows users to identify and interact each other. This can include allowing a Video Creator to identify those users who are interested in or who have purchased or otherwise acquired rights in such Video Creator’s products or services made available through the Liquid Meida Services.
Liquid Meida may also collect Personal Information that you submit to us through our social media sites, including through Facebook and Twitter.
The Personal Information that we collect may include, but is not limited to your name and contact information (including email address). If you make a payment through the Liquid Meida website, we may also collect your credit card number and/or other payment information from you.
Personal Information about users of the Liquid Meida Services will be collected, to the extent possible, directly from the user concerned. Unless permitted by law, no Personal Information is collected about a user without first obtaining the consent of such user for the collection, use and disclosure of that Personal Information. You can change your consent preferences at any time, upon providing reasonable, advance notice, by contacting Liquid Meida as detailed at the end of this Policy.
When Liquid Meida may disclose your Personal Information
Liquid Meida may disclose Personal Information when an individual has provided consent for such disclosure. Further, Liquid Meida may disclose information in the following circumstances:
- Liquid Meida is required or permitted by law or by order of a court, tribunal, or administrative agency;
- Liquid Meida believes, on reasonable grounds, that it is necessary to protect the rights, privacy, safety or property of an identifiable person or group;
- The information is public; or
- For such other purposes as may be introduced to this Policy from time to time upon notice being given to the user. For certainty, you hereby agree that sufficient notice includes making the Policy available on the Internet.
Additionally, Liquid Meida may disclose Personal Information to the Video Creator when a user purchases or otherwise acquires rights in: (i) a Video Creator’s products or services made available through the Liquid Meida Services; or (ii) third party products or services affiliated with such Video Creator, and made available through the Liquid Meida Services, so that the Video Creator can communicate with the user in accordance with applicable laws. At all times, the Video Creator must comply with applicable privacy legislation, including Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation ("CASL"). Without limiting the liability disclaimer provisions of the Terms of Use, Video Creator and user hereby confirm that under no circumstances will Liquid Meida be liable for any breach of any privacy legislation, including CASL, by Video Creator or any party affiliated with Video Creator. In the event that Liquid Meida determines that sensitive Personal Information has been provided to Liquid Meida, we will not disclose such Personal Information unless it is required by law or we otherwise have your consent. Where obliged or permitted to disclose Personal Information without consent, Liquid Meida will not disclose more Personal Information than Liquid Meida reasonable believes is required.
Where Liquid Meida shares Personal Information with organizations that perform services on its behalf (e.g., to process credit card payments, etc.), we will require those service providers to use such information solely for the purposes of providing services to Liquid Meida and to have appropriate safeguards for the protection of that Personal Information. However, where Personal Information is stored outside of Canada (e.g., the United States), it may be subject to the laws of that country and no contractual provision can override those laws. Similar to Canadian law, law enforcement agencies in the U.S. may obtain access to Personal Information but only where access is permitted by U.S. or Canadian law.
In the event that Liquid Meida intends to sell or transfer ownership or control of any or all of its business, operations or services to a third party, Liquid Meida may transfer personal information to a potential buyer both before and after the purchase.
We limit collection of your Personal Information through the website
We also receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. Liquid Meida may, for example, communicate with you generally about products and services if you consent to such communications.

SAFEGUARDS AND RISKS a
We take steps to safeguard your Personal Information, regardless of the format in which it is held, including appropriate physical, procedural and technical security with respect to its offices and information storage facilities. Reelhouse limits access to your credit card information to those companies or individuals that are essential to and directly involved in payment processing.
While we endeavour to keep your Personal Information safe, our collection, use, and disclosure of your Personal Information is not without risks. For example, our security safeguards may be compromised by viruses, hacking attempts, or physical break-ins. Consequently, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information. If your Personal Information was wrongfully accessed, there is a risk that you may suffer a harm, such as identity or credit card theft or financial loss. Please be careful whenever sending Personal Information to us via email. Email is generally not a secure means of transferring information. We therefore cannot guarantee that this information will not be lost or used in a fraudulent manner and we encourage the use of email encryption to communicate with us.Where
