However, due to the nature of the services that Cast & Crew provides, it is likely that we will be required to deny your deletion request due to legal and regulatory requirements and our contractual obligations with our clients.
In general, we may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:

- Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 seq.).
- Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
- Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
- Comply with a legal obligation.
- Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Cookies and Tracking Technology
A cookie is a small data file that certain websites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you have visited, but the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie cannot read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Some parts of our websites use cookies to track user traffic patterns. We do this in order to determine the usefulness of our website information to our users and to see how effective our navigational structure is in helping users reach that information. If you prefer not to receive cookies while browsing our websites, you can set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies and refuse the cookie when your browser alerts you to its presence. You can also refuse all cookies by turning them off in your browser, although you may not be able to take full advantage of our websites if you do so. In particular, you may be required to accept cookies in order to complete certain actions on our websites.

Cast & Crew further reserves the right to create, utilize and share with third parties anonymized data which may be derived from personal information but does not contain any personally identifying information in its amalgamated form.
Data Security
Your account information, if applicable, is password-protected for your privacy and security. Cast & Crew safeguards the security of the data you send us with physical, electronic, and managerial procedures.

Change your passwords often, use a combination of letters and numbers, and make sure you use a secure browser.
Software Piracy
We are committed to addressing and eliminating piracy or other misuse of our software and products.
