Home Entertainment Group, Inc. understands that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your confidence that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice describes our privacy policy.

Personal Information
The information we obtain from customers helps us personalize and continually improve your browsing and buying experience. We receive and store any information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. To see examples of what information you provide, please see Information You Provide, below. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, customizing future shopping for you, improving our stores, and communicating with you. You can add or update certain information on pages. When you update information, we usually keep a copy of the prior version for our records. We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites, we may use "cookies," and we may obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses OddBanana web sites. To see examples of the information we collect, please see Information We Collect, below. Although we will not be able to provide you with a personalized experience at OddBanana if we cannot recognize you, you should be aware that tools exist to help you browse and shop anonymously. We send emails to customers and other users of our site(s) that sign up to receive email messages from us. These email messages may provide informational or promotional material. We also send various types of emails to customers who purchase from us. These email messages may include, but not be limited to: purchase confirmations, shipping confirmations, correspondence related to order, payment and/or address verification, communications regarding special offers, communications regarding order cancellation, delay and/or substitution. To opt-out of any email sent by OddBanana, please email orders@oddbanana.com and include the words “opt out” in your subject line and your name, address and email address in the body of your message. We might receive information about you from other sources and use that information to provide services.

Cookies
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide certain features. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However, cookies allow you to take full advantage of some of BigRock Media's features, so we recommend that you leave them turned on.
Sharing Information
Information about our customers is an important part of our business and our relationship with our customers. We are not in the business of selling our customer information to others. We share customer information only as described herein and with subsidiaries or affiliates of OddBanana that are either subject to this Privacy Policy or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Policy. We work closely with our suppliers and other businesses that help us provide services to you and we may share information with them. We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf, including fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, providing marketing services, providing data management and maintenance services, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. These other companies and individuals have access to personal information needed to perform their functions but do not have the permission of OddBanana to use that information for any other purpose(s). Sometimes we may send offers to selected BigRock Media customers on behalf of OddBanana or other businesses. When we do this, we do not give any other business your name and address. To opt-out of receiving these offers via email sent by OddBanana, please email orders@oddbanana.com and include the words “opt out” in your subject line and your name, address and email address in the body of your message. As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy stores, subsidiaries, or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Policy unless the customer consents to a new privacy policy. Also, in the unlikely event that OddBanana (or its parent company, Home Entertainment Group, Inc.) or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets. We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Terms and Conditions or other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of OddBanana, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. This does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Policy. Other than in the instances spelled out herein, you will be notified prior to when information about you is/will be intentionally released by OddBanana to other (third) parties and you will have an opportunity to choose to not share the information.
Information Security
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. We obscure a portion of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing. It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
Children
OddBanana does not sell products for purchase by children. We sell children's products for purchase by adults. If you are under 18, you may use OddBanana only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
Terms and Conditions, Notices, and Revisions
If you choose to visit OddBanana, your visit and any dispute over privacy is subject to this Policy and our Terms and Conditions including limitations on damages, arbitration of disputes, and application of the law of the state of Nevada. If you have any concern about privacy at OddBanana, please send us a thorough description to orders@oddbanana.com, and we will try to resolve it. Our business changes constantly, and our Privacy Policy and our Terms and Conditions will change also. We may e-mail periodic reminders of our notices and conditions, unless you have instructed us not to, but you should check our Web site frequently to see recent changes. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Policy applies to all information that we have about you and your account. We stand behind the promises we make, however, and will never materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of customer information collected in the past without the consent of affected customers.
