Certain other activities on ZeeBotVideos-like uploading videos, posting comments, flagging videos, or watching restricted videos-require you to have a ZeeBotVideos Account or a Google Account.

If you are logged in, we may associate that information with your account. We may use clear GIFs (a.k.a. "Web Beacons") in HTML-based emails sent to our users to track which emails are opened by recipients.

Uses
If you submit personally identifiable information to us through the ZeeBotVideos Sites, we use your personal information to operate, maintain, and provide to you the general and personalized features and functionality of the ZeeBotVideos Sites, and to process any flagging activity or correspondence you send to us.
Your account name (not your email address) is displayed to other Users when you upload videos or send messages through the ZeeBotVideos Sites and other Users can contact you through messages and comments. Any videos that you submit to the ZeeBotVideos Sites may be redistributed through the internet and other media channels, and may be viewed by the general public. If you have enabled Active Sharing, other users may see that you, as identified by your account name (not your email address), are watching the same video.
We do not use your email address or other personally identifiable information to send commercial or marketing messages without your consent or except as part of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or opt-out. We may, however, use your email address without further consent for non-marketing or administrative purposes (such as notifying you of major ZeeBotVideos Site changes or for customer service purposes).
We use both your personally identifiable information and certain non-personally-identifiable information (such as anonymous user usage data, cookies, IP addresses, browser type, clickstream data, etc.) to improve the quality and design of the ZeeBotVideos Sites and to create new features, promotions, functionality, and services by storing, tracking, analyzing, and processing user preferences and trends, as well as user activity and communications.

Your Choices
You may, of course, decline to submit personally identifiable information through the ZeeBotVideos Sites, in which case you can still view videos and explore the ZeeBotVideos Sites, but ZeeBotVideos may not be able to provide certain services to you. Some advanced ZeeBotVideos features may, for authentication purposes, require you to sign up for other Google services like Google Checkout or AdSense. The privacy notices of those services govern the use of your personal information associated with them.
You may update or correct your personal profile information and email preferences at any time by visiting your account profile page.
You may clear your viewing history at any time through the "Viewing History" feature.
Third-party Advertisers, Links to Other Sites
ZeeBotVideos allows other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to serve advertisements within the ZeeBotVideos Sites. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements and links that appear on the ZeeBotVideos Sites. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content you see.
ZeeBotVideos does not provide any personally identifiable information to these third-party ad servers or ad networks without your consent or except as part of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or opt-out. However, please note that if an advertiser asks ZeeBotVideos to show an advertisement to a certain audience (for example, men ages 18-34) or audience segment (for example, men ages 18-24 who have viewed certain channels of content) and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach. The advertiser may also use information regarding your use of the ZeeBotVideos Sites, such as the number of times you viewed an ad (but not any personally identifiable information), to determine which ads to deliver to you.
You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad servers or ad networks (see links below) for more information on their practices and for instructions on how to opt-out of certain practices. ZeeBotVideos's privacy policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such other advertisers or web sites.
