Collection of Personally Identifiable Information

Some functions and services offered through the Service require that you provide
certain personally identifiable information (“PII”). We may also collect PII
when, whether you do so offline or online, you order a subscription to a
publication or order other products and services our Family of Publications
offers to you, or furnish us with information relating to your order or account.
PII that we may collect includes email address, name, postal address, telephone
number, date of birth, credit card number or other account number. We may also
collect other information about you that we associate with your PII such as your
interests, preferences and demographics. For example, we may collect information
about your interests in certain health, food and lifestyle topics. We collect
this information for example, when you order a product, enter a contest or
sweepstakes, request a catalog, or register for a mailing list. To the extent we
combine information about your Service usage with PII, we will treat it as PII.
However, to the extent we “de-identify” (i.e., removal or modification of
personally identifiable elements or the extraction of non-personally
identifiable elements, including through anonymization, pseudonymization and
hashing) the information we do not consider it PII for purposes of this Privacy
Policy and may, subject to applicable law, use and share it without limitation.
We do not make any assurance that de-identified data is not capable of
re-identification.

From time to time, we may make available certain applications for use on mobile
or connected devices (each application, an “App”). The type of PII we collect
will vary by App, but may include both precise and non-precise geolocation
information for purposes such as to provide you with access to local service,
offers and promotions relevant to the App (e.g., coupons for local stores). Each
App may include its own privacy policy explaining how we collect PII (including
geolocation information) when you use that App; if not, then this Privacy Policy
will apply to the App. You should always read the applicable privacy policy
before downloading the App.

Policy or any statement made by us to you in writing at the time of collection.
Such uses may include, without limitation, use of your information to:

   companion pieces (e.g. Taste of Home Subscriber Exclusive) to our print
   publications;
 * send you related information, including confirmations, invoices, technical
   notices, updates, security alerts, and support and administrative messages;
 * communicate with you about new contests and sweepstakes, promotions and
   rewards, upcoming events, and other news about products and services offered
   by Company, our affiliates and our selected partners;
 * use for editorial purposes, such as to contact you about content you have
   submitted to the Service or to give attribution to content you submit;
 * send an email on your behalf which contains a display or link to a recipe,
   article, advice or other content you have selected to share with a friend
   through our Email-a-Friend service (however, we do not use the name and email
   address you provide us through this feature for any other purpose);
 * link or combine it with other personal information we get offline and/or from
   our affiliates or third parties, for purposes such as to help understand your
   needs, provide you with better service, and determine whether marketing
   offers from our affiliates or third parties would be of interest to you; and
 * investigate and take action against fraudulent or illegal activity or

Sharing of Personally Identifiable Information

Company may share your PII for any purposes and circumstances not prohibited by
applicable law or inconsistent with the applicable Privacy Policy or any
statement made by us to you in writing at the time of collection, including
without limitation:

 * We may share your PII with our affiliates, our technical consultants,
   auditors and other third parties who act on our behalf, for example, to
   make the Service available, enhance functionality, or provide services
   related to the Service or fulfillment of subscriptions or orders for any of
   our publications or other products and services (such as sending emails,
   processing credit cards, fulfilling subscriptions and other orders, providing
   customer service, and performing data-, information technology-, or
   marketing-related services), and/or who assist us in producing, delivering,
   billing, collecting payment for, renewing and otherwise managing content,
   samples, products, and gifts and prizes.

   your interest in particular health or lifestyle topics or your subscription
   information), available to third parties for the purpose of offering products
   and services that may interest you, unless you opt out of such information
   sharing. (See the sections below entitled “Notice of Your Choices about Our
   Use and Sharing of Personally Identifiable Information” and “Notice to
   California Customers – Your California Privacy Rights” on opting out of
   information sharing).
 * We may transfer your PII and other information in connection with or during
   negotiation of any merger, financing, acquisition or dissolution, transaction
   or proceeding involving sale, transfer, divestiture or disclosure of all or a
   portion of our business or assets to another company.
 * We will consider, and may release, PII to third parties: to (i) comply with
   laws or to respond to lawful requests and legal process, (ii) to protect the
   rights and property of Company, our agents, customers, members, and others,
   including to enforce our agreements, policies and terms of use, or (iii) in
   an emergency to protect the personal safety of Company employees, customers,
   or any person.

We may also provide aggregate statistics and de-identified data about our
customers, which we treat as non-PII as permitted by applicable law, including
data about traffic patterns and related site information, to third parties for
their own purposes, including statistical analysis.  For instance, we and third
parties may convert your PII to a unique identifier, such as through hashing
(which we treat as non-PII as permitted by applicable law), and we and third
parties may use and share that data as permitted by applicable law, including to
match data attributes to and from other data sources.  Any such third party
activities are subject to their privacy policies and practices.

Information for Nevada Consumers

Nevada law requires website operators to provide a way for Nevada consumers to
opt out of the sale of certain information that the website operator may collect
about them. This information is limited to direct identifiers (such as your
name, postal address and email address) collected by a website operator through
an Internet website or online service and maintained by the operator in an
accessible form. When Nevada consumers opt out of the sale of their covered
information, website operators must ensure that information is not sold to
another business that will further license or sell the information to others.

If you are a Nevada resident and you would like to opt out of the sale of your
covered information, please complete this Opt-out Form. Note that this form
requires your full name, street address, city, zip code and email address. We
will send any correspondence concerning your request to you at the email address
you provided. We will not accept requests submitted via other means (such as
telephone, postal mail, or email), and we are not responsible for any forms that
do not have complete information or are not properly sent.

Third Party Advertising and Analytics

We may also use third parties to serve ads on the Service. Certain third parties
may automatically collect information about your visits to this and other
websites, your IP address, your ISP, the browser you use to visit the Service
(but not your name, address, email address or telephone number), unless hashed
or otherwise converted to non-PII. They do this by using cookies, clear gifs or
other Tracking Technologies (defined below). Information collected may be used,
among other things, to deliver advertising targeted to your interests and to
better understand the usage and visitation of the Service and the other sites
and services tracked by these third parties (“Interest-based Advertising”). We
are not responsible for Tracking Technologies in or related to third party ads,
and we encourage you to check the privacy policies of advertisers and/or ad
services to learn about their use of cookies and other technology.

When you use our online Service, we may share information that we collect from
you, such as your email (in hashed form), IP address or information about your
browser or operating system, with our identity partners/service providers,
including LiveRamp Inc. LiveRamp returns an online identification code that we
may store in our first-party cookie for our use in online and cross-channel
advertising and it may be shared with advertising companies to enable
interest-based and targeted advertising. To opt-out of this use, please click
here (https://optout.liveramp.com/opt_out).

You may choose whether to receive some Interest-based Advertising by submitting
opt-outs. One of the third party ad servers that delivers Interest-based
Advertising to you is Doubleclick. For Doubleclick’s Privacy Policy, click here.
Some of the other advertisers and service providers that perform
advertising-related services for us and third parties may participate in the
Digital Advertising Alliance’s (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Program for Online
Behavioral Advertising. To learn more about how you can exercise certain choices
regarding Interest-based Advertising, visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/,
and http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices for information on the DAA’s opt-out
program for mobile apps.  Some of these companies may also be members of the
Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). To learn more about the NAI and your
opt-out options for their members,
see http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. Please be aware that, even if
you are able to opt out of certain kinds of Interest-based Advertising, you may
continue to receive other types of ads.  Opting out only means that those
selected members should no longer deliver certain Interest-based Advertising to
you, but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or
ads (e.g., from other ad networks). Also, if your browsers are configured to
reject cookies when you visit these opt-out webpages, or you subsequently erase
your cookies, use a different device or web browsers or use a non-browser-based
method of access (e.g., mobile app), your NAI / DAA browser-based opt-out may
not, or may no longer, be effective.  We support the ad industry’s 2009
Self-regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral
Advertising (https://www.iab.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/ven-principles-07-01-09.pdf) and
expect that ad networks Company directly engages to serve you Interest-based
Advertising will do so as well, though we cannot guaranty their compliance.  We
are not responsible for effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-parties’
opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their
programs.

Company may use Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics or other service providers for
analytics services.  These analytics services may use cookies and other Tracking
Technologies to help us analyze Service users and how they use the Service. 
Information generated by these services (e.g., your IP address and other usage
information) may be transmitted to and stored by these service providers on
servers in the U.S. (or elsewhere) and these service providers may use this
information for purposes such as evaluating your use of the Service, compiling
statistic reports on the Service’s activity, and providing other services
relating to Service activity and other Internet usage. You may exercise choices
regarding the use of cookies from Google Analytics by going
to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or downloading the Google Analytics
Opt-out Browser Add-on. You may exercise choices regarding the use of cookies
from Adobe Analytics by going to http://www.adobe.com/privacy/opt-out.html under
the section labeled “Tell our customers not to measure your use of their
websites or tailor their online ads for you.”

Company Ads on Third Party Sites

We may use information collected using Tracking Technologies on our Service and
in our emails to deliver Company advertising displayed to you on third party
sites. We also may use Tracking Technologies information to know when you return
to the Service after visiting these third party sites or when you go to a third
party site or service after visiting the Service.  We may use this information
and other information about you, for purposes such as to try to understand your
interests and show you relevant Company advertising about products and services
you may need. For more information about your choices regarding some of these
types of uses of Tracking Technologies, please go

Cookies, Web Beacons and Server Logs

Company, and third parties such as related Web hosting providers, and
advertisers and ad serving and tracking companies, sometimes utilize “cookie”
technology and other tracking technologies now and hereafter developed
(“Tracking Technologies”) on or in connection with the Service. Cookies are bits
of data stored on your hard drive that contain no personally identifying
information (but may associate a unique identifier with your device and/or
collect information that is hashed or otherwise converted to non-PII). Not all
Web browsers accept cookies, and those that do usually provide a preference or
setting that allows you to refuse and remove most types of browser cookies. If
your browser does not accept cookies, you may still enjoy the Service but not
all features and functionality may work.

We may also use local shared objects, also known as Flash cookies, to store your
preferences such as volume control for videos, or display content based upon
what you view on the Service to personalize your visit. Third party partners
provide certain features on the Service and may display advertising based upon
your Web browsing activity, using Flash cookies to help track and store
information about you. Flash cookies are different from browser cookies because
of the amount of, type of, and how data is stored. Cookie management tools
provided by your browser usually will not remove Flash cookies. To learn how to
manage privacy and storage settings for certain Flash cookies click here.

We and third parties may collect information using Web beacons. Web beacons are
electronic images that may be used on the Service or in our emails. We may use
Web beacons to deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign
effectiveness, collect and share information that is hashed or otherwise
converted to non-PII, and to tell if an email has been opened and acted upon.

Server logs capture certain non-personally identifying data (but do track device
identifiers), such as the time and date of a Web visit or opening an email, the
browser and operating system being used, and the Web URL a user linked from.
This information may be used for various purposes, such as use in aggregate form
to help us plan system enhancements when necessary and to provide content that
is compatible with our visitors’ Web-browsing systems. We also collect
information about keyword searches performed by visitors on the Service. We do
not collect your name or email address as a result of using a search feature. We
may keep logs of all words searched to help us learn what kinds of
information Service visitors are seeking, and to improve our Service.

Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track”
signal to online services you visit. Note, however, there is no consensus among
industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context.  Like
many online services, we currently do not alter our practices when the Service
receives a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser.  To find out more
about “Do Not Track,” you can visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com, but we are not
responsible for the completeness or accuracy of this third party information.
Some third parties, however, may offer you choices regarding their Tracking
Technologies, such as is described above regarding analytics and Interest-based
Advertising. One way to potentially identify cookies on our Service is to add
the free Ghostery plug-in to your browser (www.ghostery.com), which according to
Ghostery will display for you traditional, browser-based cookies associated with
the websites (but not mobile apps) you visit and privacy and opt-out policies
and options of the parties operating those cookies.

Company participates in the Adobe Experience Cloud Device Co-op to better
understand how you use our sites across various devices you use, and to deliver
tailored promotions. Go to https://cross-device-privacy.adobe.com to learn more
about how Adobe does this and to manage your choices relating to this linking of
devices.
