3. Information Collected Automatically

Our server tracks how you and other visitors use the site, identifying the source of visitors to emmyawards.tv and what pages they use on our site. By looking at this "traffic" we can better understand the needs of our members, which allows us to improve our web site and to provide you with an optimal experience and better service.

In order to provide this optimal service and convenience we use "cookies." A cookie is a temporary code placed in your computer by our server that facilitates communication and saves you time when you browse our web site.

How NATAS Uses This Information

NATAS uses the information you provide to fulfill your membership application, process your Emmy entry and process your participation in Chapter-sponsored events, and to keep you informed of events and programs.

Occasionally, NATAS may share the information you provide with other carefully selected organizations. In no event will NATAS sell, rent, lease, lend, trade, give, donate, transfer, or otherwise exchange, our membership lists with, or acquire such lists from, any candidate for public office, committees or organizations supporting a candidate, political parties, or organizations that solicit funds for use in political campaigns.

NATAS will not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from your child. In the event that your child completes a membership application form on our website and we learn that your child is under the age of thirteen, we will seek to obtain your permission to retain such information by postal mail or telephone. NATAS, with your permission, would use your child's name, address and e-mail address to process your child's membership or Emmy entry pledge.
