Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) applies to services provided by Showtime Technologies Inc.

We encourage you to read the details below. This Policy applies to any user or visitor to or user of our Services.

We reserve the right to change this Policy at any time. We will notify you of any changes to this Policy by posting a new Policy to this page, and/or by sending notice to the primary email address specified in your account. You are advised to review this Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Policy are effective when they are posted on this page. You acknowledge that your continued use of our Services after we publish or send a notice about our changes to this Policy means that the collection, use and sharing of your Personal Information is subject to the updated Policy.
