Some of these websites may be co-branded with our name or logo, even though they are not operated or maintained by us. Movieclips may also permit other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to serve advertisements within the Movieclips Site. These third-party ad servers or ad networks may use technology to send, directly to your browser, some of the advertisements and links that appear on the Movieclips Site.

Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important. For that reason, Movieclips does not knowingly collect or maintain personally identifiable information on the Movieclips Site from persons under 13 years-of-age. If Movieclips learns that personally-identifiable information of persons less than 13-years-of-age has been collected on Movieclips without verifiable parental consent, then Movieclips will take the appropriate steps to delete this information. If you are a parent or guardian and discover that your child under the age of 13 has obtained a Movieclips Site account, then you may alert Movieclips at the Movieclips Site support email* and request that Movieclips delete that child's personal information from its systems.
Movieclips uses commercially reasonable physical, managerial, and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of your personal information. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to Movieclips, and you do so at your own risk.

However, please note that this is not a guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.
