defeat any TiVo security measures or to use any third party applications
that may bypass any TiVo security measures.
Not all programs may be transferred using the TiVoToGo feature. For
example, programs that include copy protection mechanisms may not
be transferred to a Personal Viewing Device using the TiVoToGo
feature. Similarly, programs that may be blocked using Parental
Controls may not be transferred to a Personal Viewing Device using the
TiVoToGo feature. Before such programs may be transferred using the
TiVoToGo feature, you must temporarily turn Parental Controls off.
The TiVo Desktop application does not include Parental Controls for
programs stored on your home computer. If you do not want minors to
view particular programs on a Personal Viewing Device, do not transfer
them using the TiVoToGo feature.
Your home computer must meet certain minimum technical
requirements and you must have adequate storage space available on
your home computer to use the TiVoToGo feature. Because your home
computer may need available space on your home computer’s storage
device to run properly and accommodate routine tasks, TiVo
recommends that you carefully monitor the amount of available storage
on your home computer. The programs transmitted from your TiVo
DVR may require large amounts of space relative to other files on your
home computer, and the TiVo Desktop application does not monitor the
amount of available storage on your home computer. You agree that
TiVo is not responsible for your inability to use the TiVoToGo feature
or your home computer based on lack of available storage on your home
computer or your home computer's failure to meet the minimum
technical requirements.

incorporated herein by reference. Unless you have changed your
privacy preferences, when you use the features enabled by the TiVo
Desktop application, TiVo collects anonymous information about the
use of these features, but that does not identify you as an individual or
household. This anonymous information is treated the same as
Anonymous Viewing Information under TiVo’s Privacy Policy. In
other words, there is no personally identifiable information associated
with this data that could identify the data as coming from you or your
household.
