What information is collected and Why?

M3D will always let kids know the reasons why we are collecting information and what we are going to use it for. We do not collect personally identifiable information through any means other than the voluntary submission of information from the individual. Visitors may be asked to supply information for contests or sweepstakes registration, subscription registration for sites or services which require subscription (such as e-mail newsletters, prize announcement), requests for membership information to local public television stations, transactions within the M3D shopping center, community postings (i.e. forums or bulletin boards), comments and suggestions, or voting. M3D online uses the information only for conducting the activities described above and for internal marketing and promotional purposes. We will at no time disclose any personal information about our audience to any third party for any reason. The extent to which the information will be used is always explained at the time the user is asked for the information. If the visitor does not want this information collected and used by us for the disclosed internal purposes, the visitor is given an opportunity to "opt-out". Our visitors need recognize, however that under certain circumstances, if they select to "opt-out" they may not be eligible for certain activities due to the fact that the information needed is not provided. (For example, if a contest winner chooses not to submit personal information, we cannot make contact in order to notify the winner or send a prize.)
