Branded Editions Privacy Policy
1. About this policy
This Privacy Policy forms part of the Terms of Use that govern your use of the Services. Defined terms not otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy are as defined in the Terms of Use. In using the PressReader Products, you are consenting to the information practices outlined in this Privacy Policy, and to the Terms of Use.
2. Information covered by this policy
This Privacy Policy applies to Personal Information. “Personal Information” is personally identifiable information that can be used to contact you or determine your identity. When other information is linked to this personally identifiable information, it may also become Personal Information.
Depending on the privacy laws where you live, Personal Information may include your name, personal email address, phone number, billing information, shipping address, device ID, or account login credentials, such as your login for sites like Facebook, Twitter, Google, or other third party websites or apps (your “Social Logins”).
This Privacy Policy applies to Personal Information that you provide to us, or Personal Information provided to us on your behalf by a third party, including through a Social Login.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties, including Content Providers, with respect to how they themselves collect or use Personal Information in the course of their own business. Also, this Privacy Policy doesn’t cover any advertisements from third parties you may see while using our PressReader Products, nor does it cover content in the PressReader Products that links to third party websites.
3. It’s all about you
Readers are at the center of every decision we make at PressReader. We collect, use, share and process your Personal Information – we promise it’s not to creep you out, but only to make your experience of the PressReader Products even better. By “better” we mean, customized to you – we want to recommend stories and content we think you’ll love, and allow you to save and share the ones you do.
There are a number of reasons we collect and use your Personal Information. For example, we do so in order to deliver the Service to you as required by the Terms of Use, including providing customer support to you when you need it. We also use it to comply with our contractual obligations to our Content Providers, and to help our product development team build a better PressReader that better reflects your interests.
4. Some Personal Information is required to access the Service
The Service will only be available to you if you create a Registered Account. When you create a Registered Account, we ask you for basic registration information, including your name, email address or Social Login and billing information, such as your credit card number, expiry date and billing address. This is the minimum information you will need to provide in order to create a Registered Account for the Service.
5. We might ask for more Personal Information
We may ask you to volunteer additional Personal Information at other times, such as when you provide opinions, post a Submission, enter a contest or promotion, or report a problem with the PressReader Products. You can choose not to provide us with this additional Personal Information, but it may mean that you cannot take advantage of the features, some PressReader Products, contests or promotions associated with our request.
6. We automatically collect certain information
When you submit a request for support or information, PressReader will keep a record of that support or information request, and the manner in which it was handled by us.
We also collect information about you as a user so we can make your experience more personal. We automatically receive and record information in our server logs from your browser, including your IP address, your computer or device’s name, the type and version of your web browser, referrer addresses, mobile device IDs, location information derived from GPS or similar features on your mobile device (where you have enabled such features and where you have given us permission to collect this information), date/time stamp, and other generally-accepted log information. We also record page views (hit counts), and capture information about your reading behavior.
7. Cookies
A cookie is a small amount of data which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a website’s computers and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Each website can send its own cookies to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it. However, to protect your privacy, most browsers only permit a website to access the cookies that the same website has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.
PressReader sets and accesses our own cookies on your computer. We use them to identify you as a repeat visitor, to maintain session information for logged-in users, and to track usage trends and patterns. That helps us better understand and improve areas of the Websites.
PressReader also allows third parties who are providing content on our Websites to set and access their own cookies on your computer. Third parties’ use of cookies is subject to their own privacy policies. We do not have access to any information stored by third parties about you.
8. When we disclose Personal Information
In general, we will not disclose Personal Information to unaffiliated third parties without your express consent. However, there may be circumstances where we may need to disclose Personal Information about you to an unaffiliated third party. For instance:
· When PressReader employs other third parties to perform functions on our behalf, such as fulfilling orders, providing customer service, sending mail, processing credit card payments, processing currency conversions, or other functions necessary to our business;
· If Content Providers request additional Personal Information from us. The information practices of those publishers will be governed by their own privacy policies;
· If we believe you are harming or interfering with the enjoyment of the PressReader Products by other PressReader users, anyone else, or violating the terms of your Subscription, or violating the Terms of Use, or if we believe you are infringing any of PressReader or a third party’s legal rights;
· If we are required by applicable law (or court order) to provide any of your Personal Information. We will, if permitted by applicable law or the terms of a court order, attempt to notify you via the email address you supplied when creating your Registered Account before we respond to the request;
· In the event of a sale of all or most of PressReader’s assets, this information may be transferred to the purchaser so they may continue to provide the PressReader Products to you.
9. How we use and disclose Anonymous Information
“Anonymous Information” is any information other than Personal Information, including aggregated information that we derive from Personal Information. We make sure that Anonymous Information does not include any Personal Information.
PressReader may use Anonymous Information:
· To improve the Websites, the App, and the Service;
· To deliver the PressReadeer Products;
· To monitor traffic and general usage patterns;
· To inform publishers as to what content is appealing to certain users of the PressReader Products;
· To inform advertisers of the usage habits or characteristics of certain users of the PressReader Products;
· To advise potential investors so that they may better understand the PressReader user base; and
· To provide you with an improved experience when using the PressReader Products.
10. Your Personal Information may be transferred
PressReader has headquarters in Canada, Ireland and the Philippines, all of which work together to seamlessly provide you with the PressReader Products.
If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (“EEA ”) or Switzerland, what you need to know is that PressReader Inc., located in Richmond, Canada, PressReader International Limited, located in Dublin Ireland, and PressReader PH Inc., located in the Philippines, are data processors of Personal Information provided in the course of providing the Service, as described in applicable data protection law. The Content Provider who provides the Publication connected to your Subscription is the Data Controller.
PressReader has data processing agreements and security controls in place between the PressReader group of companies, and, where applicable with Content Providers, to ensure the safety and security of your Personal Information as it’s shared between us. In using the PressReader Products, you consent to us sharing your Personal Information within the PressReader group of companies to the extent required to provide the PressReader Products to you.
If you’re located outside of Canada or the Philippines and choose to use the PressReader Products or give us any Personal Information in connection with a Subscription, the Data Controller has agreed, and you agree and understand that your Personal Information will be transferred, processed and stored in Canada and the Philippines, as it is necessary for us to provide the PressReader Products to you and to fulfil our obligations to you under the Terms of Use, as well as for us to meet our contractual obligations to the Data Controller with respect to the Service.
11. You’re in control of your Personal Information
You have control over your Personal Information and can change your Registered Account, Subscription information, or other information saved by us, including how much of your Personal Information is publicly available in your profile, by visiting the Website and reviewing your settings.
If you’d like a copy of the Personal Information that PressReader has saved, you can ask us for it anytime, by contacting us here: https://care.pressreader.com/hc/en-us/requests/new .
If you want to delete your Registered Account, Subscription Information or other information saved by us, contact us here: https://care.pressreader.com/hc/en-us/requests/new . We’ll be sad to see you go, but your information will then be deleted, assuming that: (a) you are current with all payment obligations regarding any Subscriptions you have made; (b) PressReader does not believe it is reasonably necessary to keep such information in accordance with applicable law or any pending legal action; and (c) we are under no other legal obligation to retain such information. If your information is deleted, any unfulfilled Subscriptions will be cancelled without refund and you may have to re-register with PressReader in order to use the PressReader Products.
You can also object to any aspect of how we process your Personal Information based on what we’ve set out in this Privacy Policy, or revoke your consent to this Privacy Policy at any time.Where you’ve objected to an aspect of how we process your Personal Information or revoked your consent to this Privacy Policy, we will stop providing the PressReader Products to you.
12. Taking security seriously
PressReader uses reasonable and up-to-date security methods to prevent unauthorized access to Personal Information. We work hard to maintain data accuracy, and to ensure correct use of Personal Information.
Your Personal Information will be stored within a database behind a firewall for added security. The server that houses the database is physically protected at a secure site and is monitored by security personnel twenty-four hours a day. Only authorized personnel can access the site and the particular server housing the database.
No data transmission over the internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be secure. So, while we try to protect your Personal Information, we can’t ensure or guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. We encrypt all information and web sessions within the PressReader Products that are required to be encrypted, such as transmission of credit card information to the Websites or the App, to help protect the data.
13. Watch the Kids
The PressReader Products offered by PressReader are not directed to children (persons under the age of 13) and we do not knowingly collect, either online or offline, Personal Information of children under the age of 13, except where a parent or guardian has authorized its collection. If you believe the Personal Information of a child under the age of 13 has been provided to us without parental or guardian consent, please notify us at https://care.pressreader.com/hc/en-us/requests/new .
14. Spam
We don’t want to spam you, but we do periodically send emails to users with Registered Accounts that we think are helpful. They might talk about changes to the features of the Services, the addition of new issues of your favorite Publications, promotions, or other fun stuff. You can always opt out of PressReader’s marketing or promotional messaging by adjusting the settings in your Registered Account. Sorry, but you can’t opt out of billing, legal, or account-related emails.
15. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We might change the terms of this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we do make changes regarding the disclosure of your Personal Information, we will post the revised Privacy Policy on the Websites (you might get an email from us, too). Your continued use of the PressReader Products after we’ve posted notice of any change to this Privacy Policy signifies your acceptance of those changes.
