The website www.aidu.tv is owned and operated by The Kambe Foundation, Registered Company number 12563480.
INTRODUCTION
Protecting your privacy as a user of the Website is important to us and we strive to keep all information relating to you confidential in accordance with this statement. As part of the normal operation of our services you may voluntarily provide us with information about yourself (“Personal Data”). The purpose of this Privacy Statement is to explain what Personal Data we collect about you, how that Personal Data might be used and how we protect your Personal Data and privacy.
The Kambe Foundation is opposed to the increasing use of data to monitor and manipulate society. We consider it to be an invasion of our privacy in an increasingly commercially dominated world. Each person who gives us Personal Data, can be confident we see you as a creative individual, who has joined the community, and that we will adhere to the conditions as set out in this Statement with regard to keeping your personal information private.
We will be happy to answer any enquiries from you regarding this Privacy Statement, the Personal Data we hold about you or the use we make of it. If you have any queries or comments, or wish to correct, update, amend or remove any information we hold about you, drop us a line on info@aidu.tv

If you are merely visiting the public areas of the Website, we may automatically collect information about your visits, such as browsing patterns. Information collected in this way is limited to information about the system you use to browse the site and your activity on the site. This information is only used in aggregate form to analyse, manage and develop the Website and is not linked to any individual.
If you are a member of the website forum or on our newsletter mailing list, we will collect and hold certain Personal Data about you when you register. The Personal Data collected by us will include your name, password, and e-mail address. From time to time you may also provide other Personal Data which we need to provide you with the service you request, such as your credit card details, other information about yourself, your preferences or your experiences.
If you post comments or reviews on the Website, it is entirely up to you what Personal Data you disclose. In doing so, you freely give us consent to hold that data and to publish it on the Website. We may also ask your consent to publish your comments in other marketing materials and press releases that we publish.
HOW DO WE USE MEMBERS’ PERSONAL DATA?
We will use all Personal Data for the purpose of providing you with the services you have requested in accordance with the Conditions. We take steps to limit the Personal Data we use in this way to what is necessary for the contract between us.

HOW DO WE PROTECT MEMBERS’ PERSONAL DATA?
When you input any Personal Data into the Website or request services from us, we use appropriate physical, electronic and managerial security measures to try to prevent that Personal Data from being accessed by unauthorised persons and to ensure that you may input Personal Data safely.

COOKIES
To make this site work properly, we sometimes place small data files called cookies on your device. Most websites do this too.
A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

Also, some videos embedded in our pages use a cookie to anonymously gather statistics on how you got there and what videos you visited. Cookies are also stored by Google Analytics, the Google service which measures the effectiveness and efficiency of the website.
