We do collect some limited information about your visit but none of this information is personally identifiable to you.
   
How does SDFC use and share my information? - Personally non-identifiable information. We collect aggregated, personally non-identifiable information. This information includes: your Internet location (IP address), your Internet entry point (ISP domain name), your software and its configuration used to access this site. This data is not linked to your personal information and are used to: diagnose problems with our systems, identify and analyze trends, track user movement (anonymously) through our websites and electronic communications, better administer our online products, and gather broad demographic information. We sometimes share aggregate demographic data with partners and advertisers.
   
Personally identifiable information - We receive and store any personally identifiable information you enter on our Web Site or give us in any other way. Specifically, we collect: (a) information you provide when registering or making purchases on the Web Site; (b) information you provide to Ticketmaster when purchasing tickets to an SDFC event (which is passed along to us); and (c) information about your transactions with SDFC. We use this information to: complete your orders, send prizes to contest winners, send merchandise for online store purchases, contact you when necessary, and send information about our company, including promotional material. Also, we are provided information, including email addresses, from various partners when you enter into transactions on their websites.
   
Providing Artists with contact information - When you purchase tickets to an SDFC event, whether from SDFC or from Ticketmaster, SDFC may share your name, zip code, and email address, with the artist to allow the artist to contact you to provide you with information related to that Artist, such as upcoming concerts or other events for fans, or to promote goods related to that Artist, such as T-shirts and CDs. If, before the date of the SDFC event for which you have purchased tickets, you request not to receive promotional emails from SDFC (see below re: unsubscribing from emails), then we will not pass your contact information on to the Artist or other third parties.
   
How does SDFC protect my information and my orders? - When you make an online purchase from SDFC, we use your information to process your order. We will send you emails to confirm your order, and we may need to contact you via phone, postal mail or email if we have other questions. In addition, you will be signed up to receive email updates about SDFC upcoming events and offers in your area. When we first save your information, you will also be automatically signed up to receive email updates. You may opt-out of receiving future electronic mailings by following the instructions outlined below.
   
Personalized experience. In order to deliver information specific to your needs, or to make your experience more convenient, we may use your identifiable information in a variety of ways on our website and in our emails. These methods may include: sending you emails based on the information you provided or presenting you with particular offerings on our website based on your geographic location. When you enter a contest or take some action on our website that requires you to enter personal information, we may also use your personal information to automatically enter data into the required data fields for that contest or action.

How do I opt out / unsubscribe from email communications? - You may unsubscribe from our email lists at any time by sending us an email. Please allow 2-3 business days for these changes to take effect. SDFC will not transfer your contact information to its marketing partners or to Artists after you have unsubscribed from our email lists. However, if your contact information was previously shared with such third parties, you may still receive email communications from such third parties, because they are not a part of SDFC and therefore are not subject to this privacy policy. If you do not want to receive email communications from these parties, you should also contact them directly to advise them of your preferences.
   
How does SDFC protect children's privacy? - As a general audience site, we do not knowingly collect or use personal information from children under 13 without first obtaining verifiable consent from their parents. If we become aware that an account holder is under 13 and has signed up without prior verifiable parental consent, we will delete his or her account. Please visit the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA) website for more information on protecting children's online privacy.

We set cookies on your computer for a number of purposes, including to: ensure you do not see the same ad repeatedly, deliver content specific to your interests, and save your password so you do not have to re-enter it each time you visit our site. Web beacons.
