PRIVACY POLICY
WELCOME
We’re glad you chose to visit an IDG Communications, Inc. (“IDGC”) site! We care
about your privacy and the information you share with us and want you to
understand how we are using and protecting the information we collect about you.
IDGC is respectful of data privacy and adopts best practice in compliance with
applicable privacy law and regulations, including the EU General Data Protection
Regulation (“GDPR”) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”).
USE OF THIS WEBSITE
This privacy policy describes the information we collect from you and how it may
be stored and processed in the United States of America and across the IDG
Communications Publishing Network as described below.
This website, and associated IDGC events and publications provide products,
content, and services for a professional and consumer audience and is not
intended for individuals under the age of 13 years old. We do not knowingly
collect or store personal data provided by anyone under 13 years of age.
If you are a European Union (EU) resident, please note that there are a number
of provisions in this privacy policy that apply uniquely to you.
If you are a California (US) consumer, please note there are a number of
provisions in this privacy policy that also apply uniquely to you.

How we safeguard your personal data
What we do with the personal data we collect
The legal basis we have for processing your personal data
When and how we share your personal data with others
How long we keep your personal data
Your rights and preferences

How can we help? Getting in touch
WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT
IDGC collects data about you that is limited to the kind of information that can
be found on a typical business card: first name, last name, job title,
employer/company name, work address, work email, and work phone number. In some
cases, we may ask you to provide additional professional information such as the
size of the company you work for, and industry type.
To enhance and/or update the information that you have provided to us, we may
combine it with professional information or personal data that we collect from
third party sources. The personal data that we refer to in this document is the
personal and professional information you provide, as well as information that
we obtain from third party sources, both of which we typically combine as one
user record.
This site also collects and stores certain information automatically using
cookies and similar technologies, including IP addresses, the region or general
location of a computer or device accessing the internet, browser type, operating
system, page view history, and other usage information. See our Cookie
Policy for further details or if you are an EU resident or California consumer,
visit our Member Preferences Center to modify your cookie settings.
However, to the extent that any cookie can uniquely identify a computer, mobile
device, or tablet (“Device”), or the person using that Device, and you are an EU
resident, under the GDPR, this is personal data. Therefore, this privacy policy
shall apply to such personal data collected by IDGC.
Similarly, if you are a California consumer, under the CCPA, to the extent that
any cookie can uniquely identify you or the device you, or any other person is
using, via an IP address or other online identifier, this is also personal data.
HOW WE COLLECT IT
We may collect your personal data when you register to receive any of the
products, content or services offered by IDGC or its third party sponsors
(“sponsors”) such as publications, subscriptions, contests, newsletters,
memberships, premium content, webcasts, video, white papers, online seminars,
conferences and events.
WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DON’T PROVIDE PERSONAL DATA?
In order for us to provide the products, content or services you request, we
need your personal data. Therefore, if you do not provide such personal data, we
cannot deliver the products, content or services.
IDG COMMUNICATIONS PUBLISHING NETWORK
This website is one of many that IDGC and its group of undertakings operates,
all of which we collectively refer to as the IDG Communications Publishing
Network. Where permitted by law, we may share the personal data we collect about
you with another IDG Communications Publishing Network company so that we can
provide you with information about products, content and services that might
interest you, and for internal analytical and business development
purposes. Please click here for a list of the online and print publications
included in the IDG Communications Publishing Network.
HOW DO WE SAFEGUARD YOUR PERSONAL DATA?
SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
IDGC maintains safeguards which include technical and organizational security
measures to protect your personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorized use,
access, inadvertent disclosure, alteration, and destruction, and we require the
third parties we contract with to support IDGC’s business operations to employ
reasonable security measures as well (see “When and how we share your
information with others” below).
We update and test security on an ongoing basis and restrict access to your
personal data to only those who need to know in order to provide IDGC’s
products, content or services to you.
STORAGE OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We may store your personal data using IDGC’s own secure on-site servers or other
internally hosted technology. Your personal data may also be stored by third
parties, via cloud services or other technology, to whom IDGC has contracted
with, to support IDGC’s business operations (see “When and how we share your
information with others” below).
These third parties do not use or have access to your personal data other than
for cloud storage and retrieval, and IDGC requires such parties to employ at
least the same level of security that we use to protect your personal data (see
“Security of your personal data” above).
WHAT WE DO WITH THE PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT
We use the personal data that we collect to communicate with you, deliver what
you request, improve our service, and to present other information and business
offers that may be of interest.
TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU
We may use your personal data to send you important notices, such as
communications about your registration, transactions, and changes to IDGC’s
terms, conditions, policies, and/or other internal purposes.
TO DELIVER WHAT YOU REQUEST
We may use your personal data to provide the products, content or services you
request. If you enter a sweepstake, contest, or similar IDGC promotion, we may
use your personal data to administer such promotion.
TO IMPROVE OUR SERVICE
We may use your personal data for auditing, data analysis, and research to
improve IDGC’s products, content and services.
TO PRESENT OFFERS THAT MAY BE OF INTEREST TO YOU
We may contact you to offer you additional IDGC or third party products, content
or services that may be of interest to you. When we contact you regarding any
such business offers, your personal data continues to be held by IDGC, unless
you specifically indicate that IDGC can share it, such as when you tell us you
wish to receive a business offer from one of our third party sponsors.
THE LEGAL BASIS WE HAVE FOR PROCESSING YOUR PERSONAL DATA
The GDPR requires data collectors, such as IDGC, to have a legal basis to use
the personal data of EU residents. Therefore, this section shall apply to any
such personal data collected by IDGC.
IDGC uses the personal data that you provide to supply you with high-quality
products, content and services as you request, to send important notices, and
for internal purposes such as auditing, data analysis, and research to provide
you with the information you need to make the most informed technology
purchasing decisions.
We may also use your personal data to offer you products, content or services
that may be of interest to you, based upon your interests or the preferences you
shared with us, and may share your personal data with third party sponsors of
content, events, and other business services or offers.
The legal basis for processing your personal data is your consent. In certain
circumstances we may otherwise process your personal data if IDGC has a
legitimate interest in doing so and IDGC is not infringing any of your rights
and freedoms.
When IDGC processes your personal data for IDGC’s legitimate interests, IDGC
will consider and balance any potential impact on you and your rights under data
protection and any other relevant law. Our legitimate business interests do not
override your interests. IDGC will not use your personal data in circumstances
where your rights and freedoms override our legitimate interests, unless we have
your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law.
WHEN AND HOW WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA WITH OTHERS
IDGC may share your personal data to deliver content and services from our
sites, affiliated companies and third parties services that might interest you,
including sponsored content and events, for business operations, and to comply
with valid legal processes.
If you are an EU resident, IDGC will only share your personal data with third
parties outside of the IDG Communications Publishing Network, with your consent.
FOR CONTENT AND SERVICES THAT MAY INTEREST YOU OR THAT YOU REQUEST
As we mention above, your personal data may be shared within the IDG
Communications Publishing Network to provide you with information about
products, content and services that might interest you and for internal
analytical and business development purposes (see “IDG Communications Publishing
Network” above). We may also share your personal data with third parties to
deliver third party sponsored content or other services that you request (see
“third party sponsored content and events” below). As indicated above (see “To
present offers that may be of interest to you”), however, your personal data
continues to be held by IDGC, unless you specifically indicate that IDGC can
share it with the third party sponsor.
FOR BUSINESS OPERATIONS
We may also share your personal data with third parties we have contracted with
to support IDGC’s business operations including delivery, fulfillment, payment
processing, email deployment, suppression list management and data processing.
FOR THIRD PARTY SPONSORED CONTENT AND EVENTS
IDGC partners with third party sponsors to make available a large library of
content to our users, such as white papers, professional events (live or
online), as well as other business services or offers. In return for access to
such offers, we may ask you to provide us with personal data as part of the
registration.
We may use your personal data to send you the business offer you request. In
addition, your personal data may be shared with the third party sponsor(s) of
the offer to communicate with you regarding the offer. Please note that once
your personal data is shared with the sponsor, the sponsor’s privacy policy,
including information on how to opt-out in the future, will apply to your
personal data.
AS REQUIRED BY LAW
Your personal data may be shared when authorized by law or necessary to comply
with a valid legal process.
IN THE EVENT OF NEW OWNERSHIP
If part or all the ownership of IDGC or any of its products or services are sold
or transferred, your personal data will be transferred to the new owner.
INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS
This section shall apply to any personal data collected by IDGC from EU
residents.
If IDGC shares your personal data within the IDG Communications Publishing
Network or with any other third party as described in this privacy policy and
your personal data will be transferred to a State which is not a Member State of
either the European Union or the EEA, or deemed adequate by the European
Commission, IDGC (as a data controller/data exporter) will only conduct such
transfer (to a data processor/data importer) if there are suitable safeguards in
place, such as binding corporate rules, standard contractual clauses, approved
Codes of Conduct, or approved certification mechanism. For more information,
please contact IDGC’s Data Protection Officer (See contact details below).
HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We retain your personal data for the duration of your business relationship with
us, and we hold your information only as long as necessary for each purpose we
use it, unless we have obtained your consent to use for another or similar
purpose.
YOUR RIGHTS AND PREFERENCES
If you inform us that you want IDGC to provide the categories and specific
pieces of personal data IDGC collects, your personal data erased (if you are an
EU resident) or deleted (if you are a California consumer), that you do not want
your personal data sold (if you are a California consumer), that you no longer
wish for us to communicate with you for marketing purposes, or to otherwise
restrict IDGC’s processing of your personal data, we may retain some basic
information in order to avoid sending you unwanted materials in the future, and
to keep a record of your request and our response.
CONFIRMING YOUR PERSONAL DATA
This section shall apply to any personal data collected by IDGC from EU
residents and California consumers.
To confirm that IDGC is processing your personal data, or to access, update or
correct the personal data IDGC holds about you, or to obtain a copy to reuse for
your own purposes, please send an email to: DataRequest@idg.com (or the mailing
address below).
The categories of personal data IDGC has collected about consumers, the
categories of sources from which personal data is collected, the business or
commercial purpose for collecting or selling (if applicable) personal data, the
categories of third parties with whom IDGC shares personal data, and the
specific pieces of personal data IDGC has collected about consumers, can be
generally be found in this privacy policy.
If, however, you require additional information and/or to otherwise exercise
your rights under the CCPA to request the categories and specific pieces of
personal data IDGC collects, please send an email to: DataRequest@idg.com (or
the mailing address below) and please put CCPA Request in the subject line.
ERASING OR DELETING YOUR PERSONAL DATA
This section shall apply to any personal data collected by IDGC from EU
residents or California consumers.
If you want your personal data erased and you are an EU resident, please send an
email to: preferences@idg.com (or the mailing address below).
If you are a California consumer, and you want your personal data deleted,
please send an email to: preferences@idg.com (or the mailing address below) and
please put CCPA Request in the subject line.
TO OPT-OUT OF MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS
If you want IDGC to stop communicating with you for marketing purposes, please

TO RESTRICT PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
If you want to otherwise restrict IDGC’s processing of your personal data,
please send an email to: websites@idg.com (or the mailing address below).
OPT OUT OF THE SALE OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
California consumers can exercise their rights to opt out of the selling of
their personal data (as applicable) under the CCPA, as described in Your
California Privacy Rights below.
YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS
Throughout this privacy policy, we have explained how your unique rights as a
California consumer apply. For a complete statement of these rights under the
California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to opt out of the
selling of your personal data and how you can exercise them please visit Your
California Privacy Rights.
