What does this policy cover?
This policy describes Doite Media, LLC, and its affiliates’ use of your data. References in this policy to DOITE MEDIA, we or us shall mean Doite Media, LLC, LLC.
This Privacy Policy applies to the information collected by DOITE MEDIA both offline and online, including through the Doite MediaWebsite, Impulse Website and SCORE Website and mobile app and through any interactive features, applications, widgets, blogs, social networks and other online or wireless offerings that post a link to this Privacy Policy, whether accessed via computer, mobile device or other technology (collectively “DOITE MEDIA Properties”).
Please note that when you enter any sub-sites accessible through DOITE MEDIA Properties, such sub-sites may have their own specific privacy policies. Additionally, the properties of affiliated DOITE MEDIA companies, including some that are linked to/from the DOITE MEDIA Properties, may have different policies; therefore, please review the privacy policies on those properties if you visit them.
What information do we ask you to provide us?
With the exception of information related to establishing an account and login credentials for any of the DOITE MEDIA Properties, DOITE MEDIA does not generally require that you provide us with personal data in order to visit and use the DOITE MEDIA Properties. Please note that in order to participate in some activities, such as sweepstakes, contests and other promotions (collectively, “Promotions”) and social media, we may ask you to provide information that could reasonably be used to contact you or to identify you personally (such as your name, company name, title, e-mail address, mailing address and telephone number). DOITE MEDIA may also ask you to provide other information about yourself, which may include demographic information such as geographic region, age, etc., or certain information about your preferences and interests.
Therefore, the information that we collect from you and process may include:
We may offer opportunities to enter into Promotions, on our own or jointly with a third party. Such Promotions may require registration and the disclosure of both personal data and non-personal data. In the event that a Promotion is offered jointly with a third party, as a result of your participation in such Promotion, your personal data and non-personal data may be shared with such third party. This sharing will be disclosed to you at the time you provide your information. By entering a Promotion, you are agreeing to the official rules that govern that Promotion, which may contain specific requirements of you, including, except where prohibited by law, allowing the sponsor and/or other third parties connected to the Promotion to use your name, voice and/or likeness in advertising and marketing materials. Therefore always carefully read the rules of the Promotion before entering.
What information do we collect from you automatically?
In addition to any personal data or other information that you choose to provide to us via the DOITE MEDIA Properties, whenever you visit or interact with the DOITE MEDIA Properties, DOITE MEDIA may automatically collect certain information such as your IP address and/or another unique identifier (“Device Identifier”) for the computer, mobile device, technology or other device (“Device”) you use to access the DOITE MEDIA Properties and any referring property. (A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device when you access a Website, mobile app or other digital property or its servers. The DOITE MEDIA Properties identify your Device by its Device Identifier).
DOITE MEDIA may also automatically collect information about your Device, such as the platform, operating system, or browser type for the Device you use to access the DOITE MEDIA Properties and any referring property.
Some mobile service providers may also provide us or our third-party service providers with information regarding the physical location of the Device used to access the DOITE MEDIA Properties.
In addition, DOITE MEDIA, as well as certain third-party analytics and other service providers, may use a variety of technologies that automatically or passively collect information about how you use the DOITE MEDIA Properties (“Usage Information”). Usage Information may include, in part, browser type, operating system, IP address, the content served, the time at which a page was accessed and/or the time spent on a page, and the preceding pages views.
DOITE MEDIA may receive information about you from third parties. In addition, if you are on another Website and you opt-in to receive information from us that Website will forward to us your e-mail address and other (personal data) about you so that we may contact you as requested. We may also supplement the information we collect about you with outside records from third parties in order to enhance our ability to serve you, to tailor our content to you and to offer you opportunities to use our services that we believe may be of interest to you. When we obtain personal data from third parties, we will apply this Privacy Policy to the personal data received, unless we have disclosed otherwise.
Therefore, the information that we may automatically collect from you and process may include:
How do we use this information, and what is the legal basis for this use?
We process this personal data for the following purposes:
In addition, we may send you direct marketing in relation to our services, or other services provided by our affiliates and carefully selected partners. You will be able to opt-out of those materials by following the instructions in the communication.
Who will we share this data with, and where?
To Affiliates, Other DOITE MEDIA Companies and Third-Parties
DOITE MEDIA may share your personal data with companies affiliated with DOITE MEDIA (“Affiliates”)*, so that those Affiliates can (i) assist us with fulfilling your requests or improving our content, services or advertising; and/or (ii) contact you about other content, services or other offerings that may be of interest to you.
* Affiliates: meaning worldwide affiliate offices, agents and administrators that represent and work with DOITE MEDIA, such as sub-publishers, performance societies, licensees and local agents.
We may from time to time employ third parties to perform functions on our behalf, and thus, we may also share your personal data with third-party service providers that assist us with providing content, fulfilling your requests, improving our content, services or advertising, or otherwise performing services for DOITE MEDIA. As one example, if you access content or services that are published, developed or supported by an Affiliate or third party, your personal data may be shared with that Affiliate or third party for purposes related to that content or those services, including service administration and/or development. Additionally, we may share your information in order to host or operate the DOITE MEDIA Properties, for data analysis purposes, and for the administration of Promotions, such as in connection with winner selection and prize fulfillment.
When You Consent To Have Your Personal Data Shared or Otherwise Request That We Share Your Information
We may offer you the opportunity to consent to the sharing of your information with third parties, for example so you are able to receive information and/or marketing offers from third parties. Additionally, you may request, sometimes through your use of an interactive feature or third- party application, that we share personal data about you with a third party, and we will typically do so in those circumstances. If you consent or request to receive communications from third parties, you will need to communicate with them directly if you later decide that you no longer wish to receive their communications.
The provisions above apply to our sharing of personal data with Affiliates and third-party service providers. They do not cover use of personal data that those Affiliates and third-party service providers collect directly from you. Such use of personal data is covered by the relevant Affiliate’s and/or third party’s privacy policy and not this Privacy Policy.
Business Transactions
We may share your personal data with Affiliates for internal reasons, primarily for business and operational purposes, including any corporate reorganization, restructuring or other corporate change. In addition, DOITE MEDIA or any of its assets, including the DOITE MEDIA Properties, may be sold, or other transactions may occur in which your personal data is one of the key business assets in the transaction. In such a case, your personal data may be one of the business assets we transfer. Hence, DOITE MEDIA reserves the right to disclose and transfer user information, including personal data, in connection with any activity and/or transaction described above.
Legal Protections and Law Enforcement
We may transfer and disclose information, including your personal data, (including Usage Information and Device Identifier (including IP address)), to third parties: (i) to comply with legal obligations; (ii) when we believe in good faith that the law requires it; (iii) at the request of governmental authorities conducting an investigation; (iv) to verify or enforce our Terms & Conditions or other applicable policies; (v) to respond to an emergency; or (vi) to otherwise protect the rights, property, safety or security of third parties, visitors to the DOITE MEDIA Properties or the public. We may also use Device Identifiers to identify users, and may do so in cooperation with copyright owners, internet service providers, wireless service providers or law enforcement agencies, in our discretion. Such disclosures may be carried out without notice to you.
Cookies & Other Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and other technologies to track the use of the DOITE MEDIA Properties. We allow third parties to place such technologies on the DOITE MEDIA Properties for analytics and other purposes.
Cookies are files that web servers place on your device. The use of cookies on DOITE MEDIA Properties allows you to enjoy more seamless visits and more accurately measures your behavior on the DOITE MEDIA Properties. You can learn more about the cookies and web beacons we use and how you can disable cookies and web beacons in our Cookie Policy.
Social Media Applications
Functionality on the DOITE MEDIA properties may permit interactions between third-party properties, such as enabling you to “like” or “share” content to third-party properties. If you choose to “like” or “share” content or to otherwise post information from or via DOITE MEDIA Properties to a third-party property, feature or application, that information may become public and the third-party property may have access to information about you and your use of the DOITE MEDIA Properties, including personal data.
You may also choose to participate in a third party application or feature (such as one of our Facebook applications or a similar application or feature on a third-party property) through which you allow us to collect and share (or the third party to share) information about you, including personal data. The third party may allow you to remove the application or feature, in which case we will no longer collect information about you through the application or feature, but we may retain the information previously collected. In addition, we may receive information about you if other users of a third-party property give us access to their profiles and you are one of their “connections,” or if information about you is otherwise accessible through your “connections” web page, profile page, or similar page on a social networking or other third-party property or interactive service.
Security
DOITE MEDIA uses commercially reasonable safeguards to help protect and secure your personal data, and we use reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of our Affiliates and third-party service providers to take steps to protect the confidentiality, security, and integrity of personal data we share with them. However, no electronic data transmission or storage of information can be guaranteed to be 100% private and secure. Please be careful to avoid ‘phishing’ schemes, where someone may send you an e-mail that looks like it is from DOITE MEDIA asking for your personal data. You understand that any message or information you send to a DOITE MEDIA Property may be read or intercepted by others. DOITE MEDIA does not ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you use the DOITE MEDIA Properties and provide us with your information at your own risk.
To help protect you and others, we monitor use of the DOITE MEDIA Properties, and we use the information we collect, including personal data, to identify fraudulent activities and transactions; prevent abuse of and investigate and/or seek prosecution for any potential threats to or misuse of the DOITE MEDIA Properties; ensure compliance with the Terms & Conditions and this Privacy Policy; investigate violations of or enforce these agreements; and otherwise to protect the rights and property of DOITE MEDIA, its partners, and customers. Monitoring may result in the collection, recording, and analysis of online activity or communications through the DOITE MEDIA Properties. If you do not consent to these conditions, you must discontinue your use of the DOITE MEDIA Properties.
