Third-party Advertisers, Links to Other Sites
REELcomp allows other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to serve advertisements within the REELcomp Website. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements and links that appear on the REELcomp Website. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content you see.
REELcomp provides only your Demographic Information, and does not provide any of your User Information including your Personally Identifiable Information, to these third-party ad servers or ad networks. However, if an advertiser asks REELcomp to show an advertisement to a certain audience (for example, men ages 18-34) or audience segment (for example, men ages 18-24 who have viewed certain categories of content) and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach. The advertiser may also use information regarding your use of the REELcomp Website, such as the number of times you viewed an ad (but not any Personally Identifiable Information), to determine which ads to deliver to you.
You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad servers or ad networks (see links below) for more information on their practices and for instructions on how to opt-out of certain practices. The REELcomp Privacy Policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such other advertisers or web sites.
REELcomp Incorporated does not currently utilize third party advertisers.
Our Commitment To Data Security

Once your information is received by REELComp, we use commercially reasonable efforts to limit access to your Personally Identifiable Information to those employees and service providers whom we determine need access to that information to provide the requested products or services and/or other offers or opportunities that may be of interest to you. However, please be aware that your email transmissions and/or other communications to REELComp containing Personally Identifiable Information may be unlawfully intercepted or accessed by third parties and/or the may be subject to hostile network attacks or administrative errors. Also, even after your information is received by REELCOMP, we can not guarantee that your Personally Identifiable Information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed as a result of a breach of our commercially reasonable efforts or as a result of any other event beyond REELComp’s reasonable control. Accordingly, REELComp cannot and does not guarantee that your Personally Identifiable Information is completely secure and safe from such risks.
