As a condition of using our website, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy. The Policy is accessible through AnimeDaze at any time in the form of a link entitled "Privacy Policy" found at the bottom of each page.

If you apply to AnimeDaze as a prospective staff member, we do ask for certain personally identifiable information, including your name, e-mail and mailing address. If your application is accepted, your information is stored in our records and is only used if your chosen staff position requires it. As an example, we may have to ship DVD’s to you for title review purposes. Conversely, if your application is rejected, the personal information is fully discarded.

Polls or Contests

AnimeDaze conducts instant polls on our site to gather user opinions. Participating in these polls is absolutely voluntary and therefore you have no obligation to participate. If you choose to participate, the only information we store about your participation is your Internet Protocol ("IP") Address. We do this in attempts to limit multiple poll responses from the same users. Your IP will remain in our records until the poll in which you chose to participate reaches its end. At that time, the IP is discarded.

Occasionally, we may also hold contests which you are, as well, not obligated to participate in. In most cases, we will ask for your e-mail address and if you are among the winners, he/she will be contacted via e-mail in which we will request a mailing address if there is a prize to be distributed.

Tell A Friend

We provide a referral service that you can choose to use in order to tell a friend about our site. If you use this service, we will ask you for your full name and e-mail address as well as your friend's name and e-mail address. We will automatically send your friend a one-time e-mail inviting him/her to visit the site. We ask for your name to clearly identify to your friend that the e-mail was solicited by you. AnimeDaze does not store any of this information.

Children

We consider the content on this site to be generally acceptable for individuals 13 years of age and older. If you are under 13, please tell your parent or guardian what it is you want from AnimeDaze.

We may use the IP information to measure the number of visits, average time spent on the site and pages viewed, as well as to diagnose problems with our servers, to administer the site and for other purposes. We may then use this information to analyze and improve the features and functionality of this site and for other purposes relating to our business. This information is generally non-personally identifiable.
