• How much is membership at ManifestMen.Com?

• My user name and password aren't working. What's wrong?
There are a number of reasons why you might not be able to log in. Perhaps your subscription has expired. Additionally, please remember that usernames and passwords are case sensitive. It is always best to use a different username and password for each site you may have subscribed to. Not all sites are as concerned with protecting your information as we are at Manifest Men. Password hackers may obtain your information from another sites data banks and then use it to attempt to access any other site that has a similar theme. They will often post them on hacker sites as well. To further protect you, we have upgraded our security so that only one person can be logged in for each user name: if someone else is using your username then you will not be able to log into the members area. This powerful security system will not allow access to the member's area from more than one computer at a time. So if you were logged in from your laptop and wish to use your desktop instead you will have to wait for the system to log you out. The system will log you out one hour after you have last visited our website. Repeated attempts to access the members area from various IP addresses within a one hour period will also prevent entry to the site.
If you access the website via the version of Internet Explorer that is provided by AOL then you will have difficulties. This browser does not allow our security system to release your log in. It is a by-product of the information collection built into the browser by AOL. We strongly recommend that you download a clean copy of Internet Explorer from Microsoft in-order that you have the best viewing experience. Our security system also uses cookies as part of is authentication. If you do not have cookies enabled you will not be able to access the site. If you delete your cookies in the middle of a viewing session, you will not be able to get back in for two hours.
• How can I reach Manifest Media if I have a problem with my membership or downloading videos from your store?
Anytime we can be of assistance, please email our CEO directly or Phil Daniels, our Member Services Director. When you email regarding a problem you may be experiencing, please include the following information: web browser type and version, your internet connection speed (cable/dsl, T1, dial-up or wireless laptop cell provider card), your operating system (Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP, MAC OS or mobile device).

• Some sites I have joined have grainy videos or videos that take forever to play? Why are yours so much better?
Manifest Men really cares about our members and have placed our video content on a world-wide content delivery network. Your connection speed, the power of your computer, the modem speed of your internet service provider as well as other factors may have hampered your enjoyment of other websites. The greatest factor is the distance you are located from the server on which the material is placed. With our content delivery network, we provide the highest quality experience regardless of your location since our video content is placed on a world wide network. Rather than trying to view a large video file that is on an old server in San Francisco while you are London, we make it possible for you to view the video as it is served from a network of the most powerful servers available. Manifest Media invests heavily in bringing you the most advanced delivery of the videos you want to see.
• Do you sell your mail or e-mail lists?
Manifest Media values your privacy. That is why we NEVER give out any information about you to any third party.

• Can I watch the videos on my Mac or PC?
Our videos are streamed in Flash. If you can watch the preview videos, you can watch the videos inside the members area. They are available to watch at various bit rates meaning you can chose different speeds based upon the type of internet connection you have. Please use the most recent Flash Player. If you purchase credits and wish to own the videos they will play on QuickTime. Or you may import them into iTunes and play them with the iTunes player. You may then sync them with your iPod or iPhone to take with you wherever you go. iTunes is available in both Windows and Mac formats so both platforms will support our video downloads.

• My browser (original IE7) crashed during an active session. Since then I my password is no longer accepted. Error msg: Activate cookies. What do I do now?

You will need to wait two hours for the cookie to expire or you can write us to have your log-in cleared.

It is most likely that you have logged in from more than one browser or machine within a two hour period. It is also possible that your browser crashed and wiped out our security cookie. If that occurs, please let us know and we can work with you to correct the problem.
• What is the best way to determine when my membership expires or is due for renewal?

"Personally identifiable information" is information that can be used to identify or contact you, such as your name, email address, home or work address, or telephone number. Manifest Media, Inc. only has access to the information that you provide to us and our billing processor. For example, we cannot determine your email address unless you provide it. We cannot gain access to other information on your computer. Those who visit only public areas of the Web site (such as the "site tour") and who do not purchase goods or services do not need to, and generally do not, provide us with any personally identifiable information. Those who wish to join the site, however, or to purchase products or services or sign up for our mailing list, must provide us with enough information to enable us to process the requested transaction. This generally includes, at a minimum, personally identifiable information such as name, address, email address, and telephone number. Members also select, and thereby provide, a username and password combination.
ii. How we use the information
Your personally identifiable information is used only to process the requested transaction, and occasionally to provide you with special offers from Manifest Media, Inc. On occasion, for example, we may send emails to introduce a product or service that we think will interest our members or viewers. Manifest Media, Inc. will never intentionally disclose any personally identifiable information to any third party, unless we are compelled to do so by law (for example, in response to a subpoena or court order), or our obligation to maintain the privacy of your information has been waived or otherwise excused by you (for example, by your filing suit against us and asserting claims against which such information would be relevant in our defense).

Members should use reasonable caution when disclosing any personally identifiable information in any online forum. We cannot be responsible for any damages incurred as a result of such disclosure, and use of the interactive services is at the member's own risk.
