wyplanet.com (“WP”) provides a portal for publishing, promoting and distributing User created content, products and/or licensed products. Publishers include musicians, writers, photographers, film makers, producers, models, graphic artists and the like.

Our shopping portal "wyshops.com" provides links to affiliate merchants. WP Publishers and Fans use WP tools to communicate with one another and to voluntarily publish information about themselves, their interests and their opinions. WP Publishers and Fans are referred to collectively as WP Users and individually as Publishers or Fans. The WP team continues to add and improve WP features. Such changes or changes in the law may require WP to modify its methods for handling and protecting WP User data. Therefore we reserve the right to revise or add to our Privacy Policy at any time, without prior notification. Should our information practices change at some time in the future we will notify you by posting the policy changes to wyplanet.com and all information collected thereafter will be governed by the policy changes. We will also notify WP Users that the Privacy Policy has changed with WP communication tools. Should you be concerned about how your information is used, you should revisit the posted WP Privacy Policy periodically. You may access the WP Privacy Policy at anytime through the “Privacy Policy” link at the bottom of each WP page.
