We take user privacy seriously and are committed to protecting it as described in this Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”). This Privacy Policy applies to Graham Media Group’s seven local media hubs:
Each of these local media hubs receives services and support, including digital media and technology development, from Graham Media Group and its business units, subsidiaries, and affiliates (collectively referred to herein as “GMG”). You can learn more about Graham Media Group by visiting https://www.grahammedia.com/.
A summary of our approach to privacy follows:
We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy in its entirety, but you can navigate to specific areas using the links below:
The privacy practices described below apply to information collected by all the local media hubs that are part of GMG. This includes information collected by our local media hubs on or through any websites, mobile applications, widgets, tools, features, and content (including videos and images) that we may offer or employ on any platform (collectively, the “Services”) that is owned or managed by GMG. This policy does not apply to information collected by third parties, including through any platform or content that may link to or be accessible from any of our websites.
This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and made part of the Terms of Use which govern your use of the Services we provide.
While legal definitions of personal information or personal data can vary in different jurisdictions, we consider “personal information” to be any information that identifies you as an individual or is directly linkable to you as an identifiable individual. Not all information we collect is personal information under this definition. For example, information that has been de-identified or aggregated in a way that no longer allows identification of a particular person would not meet this definition. Similarly, information we gather about you from publicly available sources, such as government databases, may not be considered personal information in your jurisdiction. Where permitted, we may combine personal information that you have given us with publicly available information about you to create a profile about you, your interests, and your preferences that help us personalize your experience of the Services.
We may collect, store, and process personal information from various categories. These may include identifiers (such as name, email address, and telephone number); demographic information (such as gender and age); payment card information; commercial information; Internet browsing or other electronic network activity information; geolocation data; audio, visual or similar information; and inferences drawn from any additional information we gather about you. Our listing of these categories does not mean that all categories or examples listed in each category are collected about everyone who uses the Services. We are providing a complete list in the spirit of transparency.
We collect this information:
The Services may contain links to other websites, including the websites of our sponsors and partners. These third-party websites may collect information directly from you or set cookies or other tracking tools on your device. We are not responsible for the privacy practices these third parties employ when you visit their websites. If you have any questions about an advertisement or other targeted content received from a third party, you should contact the responsible provider directly.
Your local media hub will generally be the primary user of information collected from you. This includes using that information on Services that might be on different platforms than the platform the information was initially provided. Other members of GMG may access your information where they perform services on behalf of your local media hub and, unless prohibited under applicable law, for use on their behalf for the purposes described in this privacy policy. Consistent with applicable law and the choices and controls that may be available to you, we may use information collected from you or from devices associated with you as follows:
When we sponsor promotions or sweepstakes, or third parties’ sponsor promotions or sweepstakes in conjunction with us, either the third party or we will post any additional relevant privacy information in the official rules and/or registration area for the promotion or sweepstakes. To the extent it conflicts with this Privacy Policy, that privacy information will govern that promotion or sweepstakes.
The categories of personal information that we may have shared for a business or commercial purpose include any of the categories of personal information shown in the Information We Collect section of this Privacy Policy.
We process certain categories of personal information for purposes of targeted advertising. Those include identifiers, demographic information, Internet browsing or other electronic network activity information, geolocation data, and inferences drawn from the above. We share these categories of personal information with our affiliates, business partners, certain service providers, and social media companies. You may opt out of this type of sharing by using the form here: Do Not Sell My Info.
The parties with whom we may share personal information are:
We may use information, including personal information, we have collected about you to create de-identified and/or aggregated data sets, such as de-identified demographic information, aggregated trends, reports, or statistics about how users interact with the Services. De-identified and aggregated information is used for various functions, including measuring visitors’ interest in and use of various portions or features of the Services we offer. Such de-identified and aggregated information does not identify you individually and is, therefore, not personal information for purposes of this Privacy Policy. We may disclose such de-identified or aggregated information in several ways, including to improve the Services, for our internal business purposes, and any other legally permissible purpose.
We take the security of your personal information seriously. We implement commercially reasonable technical, physical, and administrative security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction of personal information collected through the Services.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. We cannot and do not guarantee that your personal information will never be accessed by an unauthorized party or otherwise breached during transmission through the Internet. Additionally, any contact with us by email or through the Services might not be secure. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for the circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on our websites.
If we believe the information you provided to us has been exposed to unauthorized third parties, we will notify you as required by law or upon our own choice. In the event of such unauthorized exposure, we expressly reserve the right to provide notice to you electronically via any email address you have provided if permitted by law. If you have reason to believe that your personal information, including any password you created for access to the Services, is no longer secure, please notify us immediately by contacting us via one of the methods listed below.
Depending on where you live, you may have certain privacy rights created by law. While these laws vary depending on where you live, we strive to provide everyone the same basic level of privacy rights. Thus, the rights described here are available to anyone with whom we interact or about whom we collect personal information.
To exercise the rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information or to obtain a portable copy, as described above, please visit: DSAR Form.
Before completing your request, we may need to verify your identity. We will send you a link to verify your email address and may request additional documentation or information to verify your identity.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
If you have any questions about your rights described above or want to appeal any decision regarding a request related to these rights, you may email us here or contact us as provided below.
As discussed above, we may use your personal information to facilitate the delivery of targeted ads, promotions, and offers to you, on behalf of ourselves and advertisers, on and off the Services. To tell us you want to opt out of the use of your personal information for targeted advertising, please visit: Do Not Sell My Info
In addition to the rights discussed above, there are various other ways to access, update, or limit the personal information you provide to us.
We may update or change our privacy practices and this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we update the Privacy Policy, we will publish the revised policy on this page or as otherwise required by law. The date at the top of this page reflects the date of the most recent update. Your continued use of the Services after we make changes is deemed, to the extent allowed by law, to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the policy periodically for updates.
