Portions of our web site may use "cookies" to automatically help provide better services. They remind us of whom you are and how you like to use our web site, based on what you've done or told us before. The "cookie" is placed in your computer and is read when you come back to our web site. They also let us track your and others' usage on our site, so we know which parts of our sites are most popular. We do not use cookies to store personal data, nor do we link non-personal information stored in cookies with personal data about specific individuals.
This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar tracking methods (such as pixels, SDKs, JavaScript, etc., which are otherwise known as “trackers”) when you visit our site. “Our site” means our websites, emails, applications, and other services that may link to this Cookie Policy.
This policy explains what various tracking methods are, and why they are used. It also explains your right to control their use.
We may change this Cookie Policy at any time. Check the “latest revised” date at the top of this page to see when this Cookie Policy was last revised. Any change becomes effective when we post the revised Cookie Policy on this page.
Below is a list of the types of trackers that appear on our site.
Essential Trackers
Essential trackers are required for our site to operate. They allow you to navigate our site and use its services and features (e.g., cookies that help you stay logged in). This is only the case when you create a login and then become either an access producer or playback producer with us. Without essential trackers, our site will not run smoothly; in fact, our site (or certain services or features) might not even be available to you simply because of technical limitations.
Advertising Cookies & Trackers
Advertising cookies are designed to customize advertisements. As a Non-Profit Organization, we do not show advertisements on our website. These groups of cookies and trackers only apply on the facebook platform, which we use to collect information about visitors that allow us to send promotions of our shows and target interests based on time of day visited, type of show watched, etc. They are not essential to the functioning of our site.
Analytics Trackers
Analytics trackers collect or use information about your site use, which helps us improve our site. Among the uses of analytics trackers are to show us which pages are most frequently visited, help us record difficulties you have with our site, track subscription purchases and behaviors leading to subscription purchases, and measure how well ads perform.
These trackers add up our readers’ visits to show us larger patterns in our audience. We look at these larger patterns to analyze site traffic.

When you first come to our site, you may receive a notification that trackers are present. By clicking or tapping “accept,” you agree to the use of these trackers as described here.
You can manage your tracker settings by opting out of specific (or all) trackers.
In addition to the options above, you can refuse or accept trackers from our site (or any other site) in your browser’s settings. If you refuse trackers, you might not be able to sign in or use other tracker-dependent features of our site.
Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but this is typically something you can adjust. Information for each browser can be found in the links below:
Safari on desktop and Safari Mobile (iPhone and iPads): Note that, by default, Safari is engineered to protect you from being tracked from site to site unless you disable Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP).
Firefox: By default, Firefox protects you from cross-site tracking so long as you have not disabled Enhanced Tracking Protection (ETP). There is therefore less need to manage cookies to protect your privacy.
Microsoft Edge: Enabling tracking prevention with Edge will protect you from being tracked between sites, such that there will be less of a need to manage your cookies in order to protect your privacy.
Brave: Brave has several mechanisms to keep you from being tracked online, but you can change your privacy settings if you wish to have greater control over its decisions.
For more information about other browsers, please refer to this “All About Cookies” guide.
