This Privacy Notice details important information regarding the use and disclosure of User information collected on the YouTube Wiki. YouTube Wiki provides this Privacy Notice to help you make an informed decision about whether to use or continue using YouTube Wiki.

This Privacy Notice is incorporated into and is subject to the YouTube Wiki Terms of Use. Your use of the YouTube Wiki and any personal information you provide on the YouTube Wiki remains subject to the terms of this Privacy Notice and our Terms of Use.

Please note that any article, image, or other content posted at the direction of Users onto the YouTube Wiki becomes published content and is not to be considered personally identifiable information subject to this Privacy Notice.


[edit] The Information YouTube Wiki Collects

User Provided Information: You provide certain personally identifiable information to YouTube Wiki when choosing to participate in various activities on the YouTube Wiki such as uploading images, posting articles or in the article comments section


[edit] The Way YouTube Uses Information

If you submit personally identifiable information in an article through the YouTube Wiki, then we will delete your personal information.

Any personal information or video article that you voluntarily disclose online (on discussion boards, in messages and chat areas, within your public profile page, etc.) becomes publicly available and can be collected and used by others. Your username is displayed in the User List when you upload images. Any articles that you submit to the YouTube Wiki may be deleted.

We use both your personally identifiable information and certain non-personally-identifiable information to improve the quality and design of the YouTube Wiki and to create new features, promotions, functionality, and services by storing, tracking, and analyzing User preferences and trends.


[edit] When YouTube Wiki Discloses Information

We provide personally identifiable information and non-personally-identifiable information to our subsidiaries, affiliated companies, or other businesses or persons for the purpose of processing such information on our behalf. We require that these parties agree to process such information in compliance with our privacy policy, and we use reasonable efforts to limit their use of such information and to use other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.

We do not share your personally identifiable information (such as name or email address) with other, third-party companies for their commercial or marketing use 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 do share non-personally-identifiable information (such as anonymous User usage data, referring / exit pages and URLs, platform types, number of clicks, etc.) with interested third-parties to assist them in understanding the usage patterns for certain content, services, advertisements, promotions, and/or functionality on the YouTube Sites.

We may release personally identifiable information and/or non-personally-identifiable information if required to do so by law, or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with state and federal laws (such as U.S. Copyright Law) or respond to a court order, subpoena, or search warrant.

YouTube also reserves the right to disclose personally identifiable information and/or non-personally-identifiable information that YouTube believes, in good faith, is appropriate or necessary to enforce our Terms of Use, take precautions against liability, to investigate and defend itself against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, to protect the security or integrity of our web site, and to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of YouTube, our Users or others.


[edit] Your Choices

You may, of course, decline to submit personally identifiable information through the YouTube Sites, in which case YouTube may not be able to provide certain services to you. You may update or correct your personal profile information and email preferences at any time by visiting your account profile page. Please note that media files uploaded by Users to the YouTube Sites cannot be removed and remain subject to our Terms of Use.

To protect your privacy and security, we take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting you profile access or making corrections. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your unique password and account information at all times.
