Collection of your Personal Information

We collect this information when you enter it on Penn Cinema’s website or provide it voluntarily. You may remain anonymous to us if you choose to pay by cash in person at the Box Office.

B. Automatic information
When you visit Penn Cinema’s website, we automatically collect website usage information, as well as information about your computer and Internet connection. This includes your computer’s IP address, the type and version of browser and operating system you use, your Internet domain, and if you visit via a link from another website, the URL of the linking page. This site visitation data is identified only by a unique ID number, and it is not linked with personal information. We aggregate this usage information and use it only to identify the levels and areas of interest in Penn Cinema and to improve and refine our website, services, and security. We may perform (or have third parties perform) analyses of visitors’ behavior, and may share aggregated, anonymous data with advertisers, sponsors and agencies.

We use cookie technology to gain information that helps us improve the user experience and enhances the functionality of our website. A cookie is a small amount of data sent by our websites and stored on your computer’s hard drive that our site can read, and which helps us keep track of how you use our website. Many web browsers automatically accept cookies by default but contain an option for you to disable the cookie acceptance if you prefer. If you disable cookie acceptance, bear in mind that some functionality may be diminished. We do not allow unrelated third parties to set cookies via Penn Cinema’s website.

We employ third parties to perform functions like sending postal mail and email, removing repetitive information from customer lists, and processing credit card payments. These parties have access to personal information that is necessary to perform their functions, but they are contractually obligated not to use it for other purposes.
