You are not required to provide any information to use our Website, although certain areas do require you to have an account and will not be accessible without registration.

We may also track your interactions with us, such as your site activity, through use of cookies and other technology. We do this to provide you with better service, to improve your customer experience, and for internal research and reporting purposes.

In addition to information that identifies you, the MSG Family routinely gathers anonymous data on Website activity, such as how many people visit the site, what pages they visit, where they come from, how long they stay, what items they purchase, etc. Such data is collected on an aggregate, anonymous basis, through the use of Internet server logs and cookies. We may use anonymous or aggregated data for any purpose, including for research and marketing purposes, and may also share such data with third parties such as advertisers.

HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

By providing information on the Website, you agree that personal information that you provide may be used by the MSG Family and Partners (as defined herein) for purposes of offering discounts, promoting services and products, providing new services and products, providing news on upcoming sporting and entertainment events, providing programming schedules, conducting surveys, providing special gift offerings, offering ticket discounts, conducting games and sweepstakes, and other similar purposes.

Individuals who may have authorized access to your information include our employees, agents, and affiliates within the MSG Family and Partners, though we seek to limit access to individuals who need it to do their job. Sometimes, we may provide access to information to select third parties to assist us in providing services or for other legitimate business purposes. For example, we may provide access to certain information to companies providing services to us, including billing, sales and marketing, market research, fulfillment, data storage, analysis and processing, and legal services. We may also provide access to third parties who assist us in providing targeted advertising. The frequency of such access depends on our business needs, and third parties who have such access may not use the information for any other purpose, including their own marketing.

WHEN WE DISCLOSE USER INFORMATION

We will not disclose personally identifiable information to non-affiliated third parties unless (a) it is necessary for us to render our services or conduct a legitimate business activity related to our services; (b) you provide an appropriate consent in advance.

You acknowledge, consent and agree that we may access, preserve and disclose your account information and content if required to do so by law or in a good faith belief that such access, preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (a) comply with legal process; (b) enforce our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, or other contracts with you; (c) respond to claims that any content violates the rights of third parties; (d) respond to your requests for customer service; or (e) protect the rights, property or personal safety of MSG, its agents and affiliates, its users and the public. We may also disclose information to law enforcement agencies in emergency circumstances, where the disclosure of such information is consistent with the types of emergency disclosures permitted or required by law.

Finally, we also reserve the right to disclose and transfer all of your information, including your personally identifiable information, to a successor company in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of all, or components, of our business.

LINKS

You should note that the Website has business relationships with (and may provide hyperlinks to) unaffiliated third parties that are not part of the MSG Family (e.g. sites that offer discounts for certain products, sells tickets, sells MSG merchandise, or advertises ticket promotions or provides fantasy games, subscription services, registration for camps and clinics, etc.) ("Partners") and may share this information with such business partners in order that they may offer you special promotions. If you visit a third party site by clicking on such hyperlink found on our webpage, you will be subject to that third party site's privacy policy; and we encourage you to review that website's privacy policy before providing any personally identifiable information. The entities controlling these third party websites are responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable laws, regulations and rules.

COOKIES

Data is gathered through the use of Internet server logs and cookies. A web server log is a file where website activity is stored. A cookie is a small piece of information that a website sends to a visitor's computer, which is stored on his or her hard drive. MSG uses cookies to track repeat visits to its website. Although MSG assigns a cookie to a visitor's computer, it does not know who that visitor is unless that person specifically tells us. Please know that you have the ability to disable cookies from being used to track visits to the Website.

SECURITY

MSG may offer e-commerce transactions via the Website to you. To protect your personal identifiable information, MSG uses three layers of security:
(1) Users are required to login using a unique user ID and password.
(2) A firewall (a combination of computer hardware and software) keeps unauthorized users from accessing information within MSG's computer network.
(3) Encryption technology is used to secure customer data when it's being transferred from one computer to another.

VENUE AND JURISDICTION

If any disputes arise between us regarding your use of the Website, such disputes shall be resolved according to the laws of the State of New York, and the federal and state courts of New York shall have exclusive jurisdiction over all claims.

YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

Beginning January 1, 2005, California Law permits visitors who are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal identifiable information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to msgfeedback@thegarden.com or write to us at MSG.COM, Madison Square Garden, L.P., Four Pennsylvania Plaza, New York, New York 10121.

INFORMATION FROM CHILDREN

MSG does not knowingly collect or use personal information from children voluntarily supplied without verifiable parental consent of a child (e.g. by requiring parents to fax a signed consent form, or sending emails that can only be opened with a PIN number supplied upon extending parental consent). A parent may revoke previously extended approval at any time. By giving parental and/or legal guardian consent, the parent/legal guardian agrees that his/her child's personal information may be shared with the MSG Family and Partners for purposes of offering discounts, promoting services and products, providing news on upcoming events, providing programming schedules, conducting surveys, providing special gift offerings, offering ticket discounts, and conducting games and sweepstakes. If a parent/legal guardian decides not to authorize the online collection and/or use of personal information as described in this privacy policy, the child will still be able to participate in such offerings, discounts, games and sweepstakes.
