By using this site, you agree to the Privacy Policy of Fox. If you do not agree to the Policy, please do not use the site. Fox reviews its Privacy Policy periodically and reserves the right, at its discretion, to modify or remove portions of this Policy at any time. This page should be reviewed periodically so that you are updated on any changes. If you want to communicate with us about our policy, please write to us at:

We at Twentieth Century Fox ("Fox") understand that the Internet presents an opportunity for us to reach you, the public, in new and exciting ways with information about our movies, fun games, exciting sweepstakes and contests, chat rooms, bulletin boards, and other forms of interactivity. Users, including parents of child users, can be confident that the privacy and integrity of any personal information that may be provided in any section of the site will be strictly maintained. Fox encourages parents to supervise their children's activities online and to participate with their children whenever possible.
Fox recognizes the privacy concerns of visitors to its site on the Internet. Specifically, Fox recognizes the importance of protecting the privacy of personally identifiable information collected about its visitors. As a general policy, no personally identifiable information, such as a visitor's name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number, is automatically collected. Personally identifiable information about visitors to this site is collected only when knowingly and voluntarily submitted, and Fox uses such information only for the purpose for which it is submitted unless we disclose other uses at the time of collection. Fox does not willfully sell personally identifiable information to third parties. Fox may use a reputable third party to manage some of its sweepstakes and contests, and this company may have access to some of the personally identifiable information that is provided in contest and/or sweepstakes entry. The personally identifiable information will be used by the contest administrator only for the specific contest-related purpose for which it is requested, and the information will willfully not be sold, marketed or transferred to other companies.
COOKIES
Cookies are small bits of information that our site places on the hard drive of your computer to enable us to do a number of things to make your visit and future visits to the site more enjoyable. For example, cookies allow a visitor to quickly log on to a site he/she has used before by storing a password. Cookies are not used to obtain information about a user that was not previously provided in a cookie. The cookie itself does not contain any personally identifiable information about a user, and Fox does not use cookies in order to obtain such information. Cookies are used by most major sites of the Internet. Visitors may receive cookies from third parties, but Fox cannot control the content of these cookies. Users should consult their browser owner's manual for instructions on how to refuse cookies.
SWEEPSTAKES AND CONTESTS
Sweepstakes, contests, games, and other promotions run on a Fox site may require the user to provide some personally identifiable information to participate such as full name, address, e-mail address, and phone number. As discussed above, some personally identifiable information may be shared with a reputable outside company that administers some of our sweepstakes and contests, but this information will be used by the contest administrator only for the purpose for which it is collected, and the contest administrator will not willfully sell, market or transfer this information to other companies. Fox may share personally identifiable information with other parts of our company. Fox may also use this information to give us some idea about our visitors in the aggregate so we can tell, for example, how many visitors to our site play a particular game.
When Fox runs a contest or promotion for which children under 13 are eligible, children are encouraged to ask permission and obtain consent from a parent before entering a contest. Children will be told, in easy-to-understand language, exactly why the information is required (i.e., to contact winners).
In order for a child who wins a Fox contest to receive a prize, he/she must submit a signed parental release and affidavit to Fox giving Fox permission to send the gift. All prizes are sent to the parents and not to the child directly. Except as described above, no information obtained from an contest entrant under the age of 13 is ever willfully sold or transferred to third parties by Fox.
ESPECIALLY FOR PARENTS
On sites dedicated to children under 13, Fox encourages children to consult with their parents before posting any personally identifiable information. Furthermore, Fox encourages parents to supervise their children's online activities whenever possible, and to consider installing parental control tools available from online services and software manufacturers that help ensure children's safety online. These tools can prevent children from disclosing personally identifiable information, such as their name, address, or e-mail address without parental permission.
CHAT ROOMS, BULLETIN BOARDS AND SUBMISSIONS
Fox may also obtain information from a user when he/she logs on to a chat room, posts to a bulletin board, sends in an idea, and a number of other activities. Once again, children are encouraged to ask a parent for permission to use any of these features of the site. Children are also encouraged to use a "screen name" or their initials instead of their real name, and no last names and/or street addresses are ever required to participate. Fox does not willfully sell or transfer personal information about users who visit or otherwise participate in Fox chat rooms and bulletin boards to third parties.
Rules of Conduct for the Chat Rooms, Bulletin Boards, and Submissions are provided at the site and in the Terms and Conditions below.
IP ADDRESSES
Fox may collect and disclose non-personal user information (for example, IP addresses) in aggregate form. An IP address is a number given to a user by a Web server. Examples of information provided by an IP address include service provider, type of browser and type of system used. Fox may use this information to make its site better and more responsive to the needs of the user. This non-personal information may also be shared with third parties for marketing, advertising or research purposes. An IP address is not used to obtain personal information about a user.
