The demographic information is used, among other things, to enhance user experience so we can be more content specific. The contact information is used to notify users of new services and content, as well as for surveys and newsletters. Contact information is also used to get in touch with the subscribers when necessary. Users may opt-out of receiving future communications; see the choice/opt-out section below.

However, users may opt-out of receiving future mailings by selecting the "unsubscribe" link at the bottom of the newsletter. Film Metro products and services are directed at an adult market, and therefore this site is intended for use by adults only. Film Metro encourages parents to take an active role in their children's use of the Internet, and to inform them of the dangers of providing information about themselves over the Internet. Children of any age should always ask a parent for permission before sending personal information to anyone online. No information should be submitted to this website by users under 18 years of age without the consent of their parent or guardian. Children are not eligible to use our services and we ask that minors (under the age of 18) do not submit any personal information to us. If you are a minor, you can use this service only in conjunction with your parents or guardians.

Users that Film Metro knows to be under the age of 13 are hereby required to provide the e-mail address of their parent or guardian to info@filmmetro.com so that Film Metro may alert the parent or guardian of their child's use of this web site. The parent or guardian must consent to Film Metro's collection of their child's personal information. A known child user will be restricted from providing personal information until such consent is received. No information collected from users known to be under age 13 will be used for any marketing or promotional purposes outside Film Metro. If Film Metro collects personally identifiable information from children, it will do so in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Policy Act of 1998 (U.S.C. 6501 et seq.).
