INFORMATION COLLECTED AND USED BY Helping Our Music Evolve, Inc. (HOME)

When users register with the Site, HOME collects user submitted personal information such as name, mailing address, billing address, credit and/or debit card information, email address, home telephone number, mobile phone number, age, credit/debit card information, username and password, IP address, and demographic information. HOME uses that information to authenticate users and to send notifications to users relating to, without limitation, the Services and other opportunities ("Personal Information" or "PII"). We may also use PII to you with information, products, or services that you request from us, fulfill any other purpose for which you provide it, carry out our obligations, including contractual obligations, and enforce our rights arising from any contracts entered into between you and us, including for billing and collection and to enforce our Terms and Conditions, maintain the security and integrity of the Site and our IT systems, and for any other purpose with your consent. The Personal Information we collect we use in the performance of our agreements with you, as necessary for us to comply with law, and for our legitimate interests (as explained in this Privacy Policy). We will only use your Personal Information for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose.

User IP addresses are recorded for security and monitoring purposes.
