UPDATED February 19, 2020
Welcome to gofobo, an online community for movie fans to interact with movies through advance movie screenings, promotions, contests, sweepstakes and special events. Gofobo (“GFB”) is committed to giving you a great online experience while protecting your information. This Privacy Policy applies to our website, www.gofobo.com (the “Site”), and any of our mobile websites or applications (each an “App”) and governs data collection and usage. “Service(s)” refers to GFB’s services accessed via the Site or any App. The terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to GFB. “You” refers to you, as a user of our Site or our Service. This Privacy Policy also explains how GFB may use and share your information, as well as how you may control certain uses of it. By using the Services, you consent to this Privacy Policy, our Terms and Conditions, and any written agreement(s) executed and in effect in connection with any of our products or services.
This Privacy Policy contains an arbitration clause and class action waiver. By using the Services, you consent to this Privacy Policy and agree any dispute or claim you may have against GFB related to or arising under your relationship with GFB or this Privacy Policy will be resolved in arbitration. You waive your right to bring claims in court, to have those claims heard by a judge or jury, and to file claims on behalf of anyone but yourself and your family.
At Gofobo, we take your privacy seriously. Our site may request users to provide contact, demographic and/or personal information (such as their name, location, gender, age and e-mail address). The demographic information is used to enhance user experience so we can be more content-specific. The contact information is used to notify users of new content and for surveys and newsletters, via e-mail. Personal information that is collected is used primarily for in-house statistics, advertising and marketing information. Gofobo collects the users' ZIP codes to provide specific theatre and event demographics in their areas.
(a) Server Information
Like every website, Gofobo’s servers automatically and temporarily store the following information in the server log files. This information is provided by your browser, unless you have deactivated the function.
The server log files may be periodically analyzed to measure the traffic through our servers, the number of pages visited, and the level of demand for pages and topics of interest.
(b) Site Visit Tracking Technologies
As is standard practice on many websites, the Services may use “cookies” and other technologies to help Gofobo understand which parts of the Services are the most popular and the preferences of Gofobo’s customers. Gofobo may also use cookies and other technologies to study traffic patterns on the Services, to improve their functionality and usability, and to improve the effectiveness of Gofobo’s communications with its customers. Gofobo may also use cookies to customize your experience and provide greater convenience to you during your interactions with the Sites.
A cookie is a unique alphanumeric identifier that websites use to help identify the number of unique visitors to a website, whether or not those visitors are repeat visitors, and the source of the visits. Cookies cannot be executed as code or used to deliver a virus and thus pose no threat to you. Servers and sites other than the one placing the cookie on your hard drive cannot read the cookie, and no personal information can be gathered by other servers from the cookie. If you prefer not to enable cookies or to disable them, you may do so through your web browser’s security settings. Please note that certain features of the Services may not be available once cookies have been disabled.
Some of GFB’s communications to you may contain a “click-through URL” which links to content on the Services. When you click one of these URLs, it passes information through GFB’s web server before you arrive at the destination web page. GFB tracks this click-through data to help determine interest in particular products and measure the effectiveness of our communications. If you prefer not to be tracked, simply avoid clicking text or graphic links in e-mails you receive from GFB.
Gofobo may also use web beacons or pixel tags, which are tiny invisible graphic images, in the Services. Web beacons and pixel tags may be used by GFB to count users who have visited its webpages and for related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).
(c) Different Devices
If you use different devices (i.e. your smart phone, laptop, and/or home computer) to access the Services, we may be provided with and collect device-specific information, including your hardware model, operating system version, browser type, unique device identifiers, phone number, and mobile network information.
We will display your personal information on your profile and elsewhere on the site, according to the preferences you set in your account, where may be seen by other members or nonmembers. Members' full names are never directly revealed to other members. As with any online service, we encourage users to think carefully about what personal information they will disclose on their profile.
We may use your information, such as your age, ZIP code or IP address, in aggregate form to statistically analyze site usage and customize our site's content, layout and services. The resulting information will allow us to improve our site and better understand and serve our users. We may provide informational reports with our business partners who are involved with providing free content to GFB members.
If you elect to OPT-IN to receive additional promotional information from GFB during the registration process, we may provide your personally identifiable information to other businesses, companies and organizations with which we partner or which we carefully select to offer you products, services and promotions through our Web site, mobile app, email, or offline.
Also, if you elect to OPT-IN to participate in any sweepstakes, surveys, questionnaires or other events during your visit to our Web site, the rules or terms and conditions for those events may indicate that your personally identifiable information will be shared with third parties. By choosing to elect to OPT-IN to participate and submitting your personally identifiable information with respect to such events, you consent to disclosure of your personally identifiable information to such third parties.
In the event that GFB or some of our assets are sold or transferred or used as security, or to the extent we engage in business negotiations with our business partners, the information collected on the Services may be transferred or shared with third parties as part of that transaction or negotiation. We may also provide information or provide access to information to any of our affiliated businesses or to our business partners.
On rare occasions, we may disclose specific information without your consent and without notice to you as required to comply with laws and regulations, or to comply with court orders, subpoenas, or lawful discovery requests. Information collected from you may also be used to investigate security breaches or otherwise cooperate with authorities. We may also share information with companies assisting in fraud protection or investigation.
We may disclose information about you without your consent and without notice to you as required to enforce or apply the Terms and Conditions or other agreements. GFB may disclose aggregated information about you. This data cannot be attributed to any specific individual. We may disclose aggregated customer data to our affiliates and to other third parties for lawful purposes.
By default, we will send you weekly updates of various site information including new movies, screenings, sweepstakes, contests, events and a variety of transactional e-mails, such as when users post comments to your profile and the occasional site announcement.
You have full control regarding which of these e-mails you want to receive. To change your options, simply click "My Account" at the top right corner of any page and then select " Edit Profile."
Some e-mails that are sent, such as "Screening Updates" and " Event Reminder," are automatically generated because you have participated in a contest and/or downloaded a ticket for a movie screening. By participating in a contest or downloading a free ticket, you agree to receive these e-mails even if you have previously opted out of our e-mail list.
Many of our events will provide a refer-a-friend feature that allows you to forward the event information to friends. When you choose to refer a friend, we will send a single preformatted e-mail to the addresses you enter indicating that it is a message from you.
Inviting friends to gofobo is always completely optional. When you choose to invite friends, we will send an e-mail to the addresses you enter, indicating that it is a message from you. We will share your name and e-mail address with anyone you invite so that they know who the invitation is coming from. If a friend does not respond to the initial invitation after a little while, we will send up to two reminder messages on your behalf.
For your convenience, gofobo may offer the ability to import e-mail addresses from common address books such as Hotmail/Yahoo!/Gmail/AOL. If you choose to use this feature, we will access your address book using the log-in details that you provide. We access your address book only once to retrieve your friends' information so that you may select whom to invite. We do not store your log-in details nor do we use them for any other purpose than to retrieve your contacts. We never send invitations to contacts you do not explicitly select, and your invitations are the only e-mail we will ever send to your friends unless they register to join the site.
If you are under age eighteen, you should use the Services only with parental guidance.
The Services are not aimed at or intended for children under the age of thirteen. We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of thirteen through the Services. If we obtain actual knowledge that we have inadvertently collected personal information relating to a child under the age of thirteen, we will delete that information from our records. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under the age of thirteen, please contact us at support@gofobo.com.

We recognize that the Services may be accessed from anywhere in the world, and that the laws of the jurisdictions in which some users are located may differ substantially from those of the United States and the State of California. You should be aware that data related to the Services is hosted in the United States. Because we cannot practicably prevent users in different jurisdictions from accessing the Services, you are responsible for knowing and complying with the laws of your jurisdiction. If such laws conflict with your use of the Services or any of their content or functionality, the Services are not intended for you, and we ask you not to use them or submit any information through them.
California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits California residents who are users of the Services to request from us once a year, free of charge, information about the personal information gofobo disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year (if any). If applicable, this information would include a list of the categories of personal information that was shared and the names and addresses of all third parties with which gofobo shared information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing to us at support@gofobo.com. “Do Not Track” is a privacy setting that you may set in your web browsers. If turned on, this setting requests that websites not track information about users. At this time, we do not respond to “Do Not Track” browser settings or signals.
You can review and change your personal information by logging into the Services and visiting your profile. You may also send us an e-mail at support@gofobo.com to correct or delete any personal information that you have provided to us. If you request that your profile information be deleted or if you unsubscribe from communications, we may maintain information about your inquiries for future service and recordkeeping purposes. In some circumstances, a change in or withdrawal of consent may severely limit our ability to provide you information, products, or services. We may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.
We reserve the right to transfer your personal information in the event of a merger, acquisition or reorganization of ownership of gofobo.
While gofobo cannot guarantee that unauthorized access will never occur, we take great care to ensure that your private information is as safe as possible through the use of secure technology and internal processes.
We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. Please remember to sign out of your account and close your browser window when you have finished on the site. This is to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence if you share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library or Internet cafe. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, gofobo cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit, and you do so at your own risk.
Gofobo takes particular steps to safeguard your information, such as storing information on secure servers in a controlled environment and using encryption when sensitive information is transmitted.
