Access Conditions

1. This website contains links to third party sites. However, as monitoring the information disseminated and accessible through those third party sites links is impracticable, such information cannot be guaranteed to be accurate or up to date.  TVNZ takes no responsibility for its accuracy.

2. Any views or opinions expressed by advertisers or contributors in this site are not necessarily the views of TVNZ.

Privacy Policy

1. TVNZ will use information provided by its visitors only to communicate with them.  Any information automatically retrieved, such as site browsing patterns, will be used only in aggregate form (so that no individual visitors are identified). Information provided by visitors will not be disclosed to third parties.

2. The only exception to this is where you enter a competition or register for any promotional feature through this website. In this case, information about you may be provided to advertisers for marketing purposes.  However, you will be given the option at the time of entering the competition or registering for the feature to decline the provision of the information about you to advertisers for marketing purposes and/or to decline receiving further information or further contact with TVNZ or the advertiser.

3. TVNZ may also be required by law to disclose information you provide. TVNZ will only make the disclosure if it believes in good faith that it is required to do so.

4. It is important to note that this website contains links to other sites not controlled by TVNZ.  Those sites may not follow the same privacy policy as TVNZ.

5. NIELSEN//NETRATINGS - TVNZ uses Nielsen//NetRatings website measurement software and systems to help measure traffic visiting our websites. The service anonymously aggregates site visit statistics, such as number of pages viewed time spent on site, and also randomly asks visitors to complete anonymous short site surveys. Nielsen//NetRatings has been adopted as an accepted audience measurement standard by major New Zealand publishers and corporate websites. Nielsen//NetRatings is responsible for aggregating all information; individuals cannot and will not be identified. The information is used by TVNZ to better understand usage of its websites. Limited data is also made available to advertising and media organisations.

HOW DOES IT WORK? - Each web page has a small piece of Nielsen//NetRatings code that will not be visible as you look at any particular page. The software stores a cookie in your browser (if you have enabled cookies) which contains a unique identifier to allow us to track the number of unique visitors to our website. This information is collected and aggregated by Nielsen//NetRatings and in no way can you be identified personally and no personal information is stored about you.

6. Some advertisements on our site are provided by other organisations. Our advertising partners may serve ads that they believe are most likely to be of interest to you, based on information about your visit to this and other websites (this information is anonymous in that it does not include your name, street address, email address or telephone number). In order to do this, our advertising partners may need to place a cookie on your computer. For more information about this type of online behavioural advertising and about cookies please visit www.youronlinechoices.com. To turn this feature off click here.

7. TVNZ reserves the right to change these conditions of access at any time.
