1. What information do we collect and how do we use it?

a. Types of Information We Collect

Personal information means information that can be used to identify and contact you. You do not need to submit personal information to access certain areas of the Site, but if you do not want to disclose certain personal information to us, you will not be able to access certain aspects of the PB Features. The PB Features are a social network for the entertainment production industry, offering its members a way to easily connect with other professionals within the entertainment space. To become a member of the PB Features, we require you to provide your first and last name and email address. The only items which are required to be displayed on your PB Features profile page are your first and last name, although you may elect to display your job function, the city and state in which you reside and other information that you voluntarily select to be displayed on your profile page. The PB Features give you the option to display your telephone number, social network information (such as twitter handle, LinkedIn account and Facebook account), biographical information, photograph, address, email and other contact information, but these items are not required to be displayed to open a PB Features account.
