that you give to us and certain related transactional information which we collect based
on your use of any password-protected areas of our site. For example, you might supply
your email address by signing up for one or more of our free mailing lists, by applying to
become a member, or by contacting us. You also may supply personally identifiable
information, including your name, email address, and location by submitting questions or
comments to our various public forums.
Only members who have passwords are entitled to access the
Talent, Agent, and Scout areas of our site. Persons who apply to become members of BMGI |
TALENT provide detailed personally identifiable information to us in connection with their
applications. We may collect information concerning the transaction activities of such
users when they access a password-protected area of our site. This transaction information
includes information about the portions of our site such users visit and information about
what data they access.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information
When you visit the public parts of our site, we do not
collect data about who you are or any other personally identifiable information except as
described above. We do, however, collect certain non-personally identifiable information
about you based upon your activity on our site. We may collect machine data such as
processor type, processor speed, operating system type, browser type, audio devices, modem
devices, and video cards. This information may include the Web site's Uniform Resource
Locator ("URL") that you just came from, which URL you next go to, what browser
you are using, and your Internet Protocol ("IP") address.
Cookies
Cookies are small data files that are sent from our servers
to your computer during a browsing session. In order to make our site more responsive to
the needs of our visitors, we may use cookies to assign your Internet browser a unique
random number, a sort of anonymous user ID that is stored in a file on your computer. By
using a cookie, we are able to automatically identify your browser and track your use of
our site. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies by default, but contain an option
for you to turn off the acceptance of cookies if you prefer. You can also delete cookie
files from your computer after they have been stored.

Act and fair information practices, children under the age of 13 are not allowed to sign
up for our mailing lists or the members-only portions of our site. BMGI | TALENT does not
intentionally collect any personally identifiable information from children.
How does BMGI | TALENT use the information
we collect?
Personally Identifiable Information
If you sign up for one of our free mailing lists, we use your
email address to send you email either through our subscription-based mailing lists or to
communicate with you about your application for membership and the services we provide. If
you post information to one of our public forums, you have given us and the expert that
runs the forum that information. We view your participation in one of our public forums as
your consent to limited disclosure of personally identifiable information; if your
question is published on our site, your question, your initials, and your location will be
visible to other visitors.
Other than information you supply on our forums and as
described in the next three paragraphs, we do not sell, rent, loan, or otherwise share
personally identifiable information, including email lists, to third parties. You need not
take any action to prevent such disclosure.
We will, at the direction of Actors and other members seeking
professional interest, share their information, including name, address, and selected
personal information with Certified Agents who have expressed an interest in siad
Actor(s).
We may share all of the kinds of nonpublic personal
information we collect with:
- Third Parties
- In connection with, or as may be necessary to service or
process a product or service requested or authorized by you, to effect, administer, or
enforce a transaction requested or authorized by you, or to maintain or service your
account.
- Service providers, including those providing marketing
services (such as mailing, events management, marketing analysis, and similar services),
compliance services, accounting, institutional brokerage services, transaction processing,
and systems support.
- Third parties may include financial providers, such as other
agents, and nonfinancial providers, such as data processing companies, compliance support
organizations, and marketing organizations.
- Affiliates
- We may provide all of the nonpublic personal information we
collect about you to our affiliates to enable them or enhance our ability to offer you new
or additional products or services, improve the quality of the products and services we
currently offer to you, and to aid us and them in the assessment of our existing products
and services and the development of new products or services.
- Affiliates may include financial providers, such as providers
of general business support and services to startup companies, and affiliated sales and
support organizations including providers of systems support and services, and compliance
services.
We may be required by law, court order, governmental agency,
or law enforcement authority to disclose your personally identifiable information. We may
also disclose your information to law enforcement authorities investigating suspected
illegal activity.
We do not combine personally identifiable information with
any of the non-personally identifiable information gathered on the public portion of our
site.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information
We compile and analyze non-personally identifiable
information on an aggregated basis. For example, we may know that ninety people visited
this Privacy Policy yesterday or how long the average visitor spent at our site last
month, but because we do not know their names or addresses they are anonymous to us. We
may also use this information to conduct internal research on our visitors' demographics,
interests, and behavior to better understand and serve our visitors.
How do I remove my name from mailing lists
or change my information?
To unsubscribe to any of our mailing lists, simply go to the
free mailing lists page, enter your email address and click "unsubscribe". If
you wish to change your email address, it may be easier to simply unsubscribe using your
current email address and re-subscribe using your new address.

information you have submitted to us, please contact us at service@bmgitalent.com.

password-protected. We do use industry-standard security measures to protect the loss,
misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. However, due to the inherent
dangers of the Internet, we cannot guarantee the protection of such information against
