1. GEOGRAPHIC SCOPE OF THE NOTICE

The Services are operated in the United States and are intended for users
located in the United States. The Services are therefore governed by and
operated in accordance with the laws of the United States. If you are located
outside of the United States, please be aware that information you provide to us
or that we obtain as a result of your use of the Services will be collected in
the United States and/or transferred to the United States and will be subject to
U.S. law.

By using the Services and/or providing us with information, you (a) consent to
the transfer and/or processing of any information to and in the United States,
(b) acknowledge that U.S. law may provide a lower standard of protection for
information than the laws of your location, (c) understand that we will collect,
transfer, store, process and share your information from or about you in
accordance with this Notice and U.S. law.


2. TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT FROM OR ABOUT YOU

When you interact with the Services, we collect information that directly
identifies you (
i.e., information that would allow someone to identify you or contact you, such
as your full name, postal address, e-mail address, or telephone number), as well
as information about your use of the Services. Below we describe the different
types of information we collect from you and the devices you use when you
interact with the Services.

Information you provide to us: Some of the Services may permit you to enter
contact information and other information about yourself and others. We collect
and store any information you enter through the Services. For example, you may
provide:

 * your name, postal address, e-mail address, phone number, profile picture,
   birthday, or other information, such as when you register with our Services,
   create or edit your user profile, sign up to receive newsletters, or enter in
   a contest or sweepstakes;
 * certain demographic information, such as your age, gender, or income bracket,
   when you participate in a survey or poll;
 * information in postings, comments, or forums (such as chat rooms, message
   boards, or similar public forums) within the Services, and in non-public
   messages you send to other users of the Services;
 * nutrition and dietary preference information when you search for recipes
   within the Services;
 * your first and last name, your address, and your credit card and billing
   information if you purchase of a product at the Discovery Store or subscribe
   to one of Discovery’s paid Services; or
 * your e-mail address, communications, and files when you send to us a message
   by e-mail, through our Customer Support portal, or through other
   communication services.

Information we collect automatically from your devices: When you interact with
the Services, certain information about your use of the Services is
automatically collected. This information includes information about the devices
used to access the Services, such as Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, your
device ID and other unique device identifiers, mobile network information,
information about how the device is interacting with our Services, hardware
model, and the type and version of your device’s operating system or web
browser. We also collect information about how you use our Services, such as
pages viewed and the order of such pages, content (including video content) or
advertising you view within the Services; the length of time you interact with
the Services; search queries entered within the Services; error logs; websites
and other services you visit before and after visiting a Discovery site; and
other similar information. Much of this information is collected through
cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies. Please see our
Tracking Technologies Notice for further information, including your choices in
relation to the use of these technologies.

Information from Social Media Networks and Other Third Parties: When you use
certain features of the Services, you may give us permission to access
information about you from services offered by third parties, including social
media networks. For example, you may choose to register on our websites by using
a social media account, or you may use a social media function on our Services
such as a “share” button. Doing that allows us to obtain information from the
social media platform. That information could include your friends or contacts,
profile picture, birth date, gender, people/sites you follow, or other
profile-related information, as well as any other information you have opted to
share. The information we obtain from social media networks depends on your
account/privacy settings with those third parties and those third-parties’
privacy policies, so be sure to check those policies and to adjust your settings
to meet your preferences.

We may also obtain information about you from other third-party sources, such as
our partners and advertisers, interactive applications offered through our
services (such as embedded video players), and commercially available sources
such as data aggregators and public databases. We may combine the information we
receive from third parties with information we collect through the Services.

Location Information: We collect general information about your location through
the Services, such as the city, state, and/or zip code associated with your IP
Address. If you agree, we may collect more specific location information that is
provided through the GPS functionality on your mobile device used to access the
Services. That location information is used to present information and
advertising that is of relevance to you in your geographic area and to allow you
to take advantage of certain features of the Services such as tailoring live
class schedules to your time zone or providing you with local grocery store
options for recipe ingredient delivery. If you grant permission for us to
collect more specific GPS location information, you can disable such access
through your mobile device settings.

Information You Provide About Others: If you send someone else a communication
using the Services, such as sending content to a friend, the information you
provide (names, e-mail addresses, etc.) is used to facilitate the communication
and is not used for any other marketing purpose unless we obtain consent from
that person or we explicitly say otherwise in accordance with applicable legal
requirements. Please be aware that when you use any send-to-a-friend
functionality on our Services, your e-mail address may be included in the
communication you send.

4. WHEN WE SHARE INFORMATION

We may disclose the information we collect as described below and supplemented
by our Tracking Technologies Notice. By accessing and using the Services, you
consent to our sharing practices, as described in this Notice, and subject to
any choices you have made.

Third-party service providers: We engage third-party service providers to
perform a variety of services and functions on our behalf, such as customer
support, administering our promotions, marketing or promotional assistance, data
analytics, online advertising, technology services and platforms, processing
payments, and other services.

The Discovery family of companies: We may share information about you within the
family of Discovery companies, including our subsidiary and affiliated companies
and joint venture partners, to provide and improve our products and services, as
well as to provide you with information about products or services that may
interest you.

Sweepstakes, contests & promotions: When you register or enter a promotion,
sweepstakes, or contest through our Services, we may share the information you
provide for such purposes with authorized third-party service providers (as
described above), participating sponsors, and advertising partners. Further, by
entering any promotion, you are agreeing to the official rules that govern that
promotion, which may require you to take certain actions, including, except
where prohibited by law, allowing Discovery and/or the sponsor(s) of the
promotion to use and publicly release your name, voice, and/or likeness in
advertising or marketing associated with the promotion. Please review the
relevant promotion, sweepstakes, or contest rules for more information.

Business partners: We may share information with third parties with whom we have
business relationships, such as our co-promotional partners, advertisers, ad
networks, and data marketing services, for purposes such as offering products
and services that may interest you.

Business transfer: In the event we go through a business transition such as a
merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, reorganization, or sale of all or a portion of
our assets, or a diligence process in connection with a potential business
transaction, the information we collect and maintain may be disclosed, sold, or
transferred as part of that transaction. If such transfer is subject to
additional restrictions under applicable laws, we will comply with such
restrictions.

Legal requirements and protection of Services and users: We will disclose the
information we collect where we have a good faith belief that such disclosure
is: (a) required by law (or to respond to subpoenas, warrants, government
requests, or similar process served on us); (b) pursuant to our DMCA notice and
take-down policy and procedures; and/or (c) necessary to protect or defend our
legal rights or property, our Services, you, or other third parties, or ensure
the safety and security of our Services, systems, and of our customers or the
general public.

With your consent: We may share or disclose information about you if you ask or

parties that do not adhere to our Privacy Notice. We are not responsible for
events arising from the distribution of any information you choose to share
publicly through our Services.

it is no longer linked to you or your device. This Notice does not limit our
ability to disclose aggregated or de-identified information that is not linked
to you. We may use and disclose such information to our partners, advertisers,
and any other third parties in our discretion.


5. MAGNOLIA WATCH, WORKSHOP & BLOG SECTIONS

Magnolia Discovery Ventures, LLC (“MDV”) is an affiliate of Discovery and a
joint venture between Discovery and Chip and Joanna Gaines’ company, XVI, LLC
(“Magnolia”) that provides video and related companion content offerings
consistent with Magnolia’s themes and values, including offerings from Magnolia
Network (“Magnolia Network”) available through the Magnolia Watch, Workshop, and
Blog sections of Magnolia’s website and App (the “Magnolia Sites”). Users must
have a common account across the discovery+ Service and the Magnolia Sites to
access certain content within the Workshop, and Blog sections of the Magnolia
Sites. In addition, users must have both (1) a common account across the
discovery+ Services and the Magnolia Sites and (2) an active discovery+
Subscription in order to view the content within the Magnolia Watch section of
the Magnolia Service.

To enjoy Magnolia Network and related companion content in the Watch, Workshop,
and Blog sections of the Magnolia Sites that require an account to access, users
must use the same username and password for both your discovery+ Subscription
and your Magnolia Sites account to create a common account that can be used
across both services. Your account login information and information about your
use of the Magnolia Watch, Workshop, and Blog sections of the Site is shared
between Discovery and Magnolia for purposes of activating, administering and
improving your experience with those sections and the Magnolia Sites.

Your use of Magnolia Watch, Workshop, and Blog sections of the Magnolia Sites,
including your use of any content you access and view through those sections, is
subject to this Privacy Notice and the Discovery’s and the Discovery
VisitorAgreement. Your use of the remainder of the Magnolia Service is subject
to Magnolia’s Visitor Agreement and Magnolia’s Privacy Notice. If you are a
California resident, please see our California Privacy Notice for information
regarding how to exercise your privacy rights under California law relating to
the Magnolia Watch, Workshop, and Blog sections.


6. CHOICES YOU HAVE REGARDING THE COLLECTION, USE, AND SHARING OF INFORMATION

You have many choices regarding how we use and share your information. These
choices are described in more detail below.

Subscription and Registration Services: The Services may include subscription
and registration management tools that allow you to make changes regarding your
preferences for receiving communications. Regardless of whether these tools are
available through the Services, you may contact us as at
privacy_policy@discovery.com if you: (a) have questions or comments about this
Notice; (b) wish to make corrections to the information you have provided to us;
(c) want to opt-out from receiving future commercial correspondence, including
e-mails, from us (we may continue to send you transactional messages such as
responding to your inquiries or notices of updates to this Notice); or (d) do
not want us to share information that identifies you with third parties for such
third parties’ direct marketing purposes.

We will respond to your request and, if applicable and appropriate, make the
requested change in our active databases as soon as reasonably practicable.
Please note:

 * you may be required to verify your identity to make certain changes;
 * we may not be able to fulfill certain requests while allowing you access to
   certain benefits and features of our Services;
 * it is not always possible to completely change, remove, or delete all
   information about you from our databases for legal and other reasons; and
 * we generally do not remove public postings you may have made on the Services,
   such as in forums or blogs.

E-mail communications: In connection with certain features on the Services, we
may allow you to set your preferences for receiving e-mail communications from
us (such as agreeing to some communications but not others). In other instances,
you may “opt out” of receiving future commercial e-mail communications from us
by clicking the “unsubscribe” link or following the other instructions included
at the bottom of most e-mails we send, provided, however, we reserve the right
to continue to send you transactional e-mails, such as customer service
communications and shipping confirmations.

Targeted advertising: To find out more about our advertising and how to opt out
of receiving interest-based advertising from companies that participate in the
Digital Advertising Alliance, please see our Tracking Technologies Notice.

Mobile device location information: If you access the Services through a mobile
device and you do not want your device to provide us with specific, GPS
location-tracking information, either do not agree to allow your device to share
this information with us or disable the GPS or other location-tracking functions
on your device. Your device manufacturer should provide instructions on how to
disable GPS or other location-tracking functions. If you initially consent to
the collection of location information, you can subsequently stop our collection
of location information at any time by changing the preferences on your mobile
device or by uninstalling the application from your mobile device.


7. HOW WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

Like many companies, we use cookies and other tracking technologies on our
Services. For detailed information about the tracking technologies we use, how
we use those technologies, and additional options you have regarding the use of
those technologies, please visit our Tracking Technologies Notice. Additionally,
as more fully explained in that Tracking Technologies Notice, your browser or
device may include “Do Not Track” functionality. Our information collection and
disclosure practices, and the choices that we provide, will continue to operate
as described in this Notice and the related Tracking Technologies Notice,
whether or not a Do Not Track signal is received.


8. ADDITIONAL PRIVACY INFORMATION FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

If you are a California resident, California law requires us to provide you with
some additional information regarding the “personal information” (as defined in
the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”)) we collect from and about you, and
your rights with respect to your personal information. You can find this
additional information in our California Privacy Notice .


9. ADDITIONAL PRIVACY INFORMATION FOR NEVADA RESIDENTS

Under Nevada law, Nevada residents who have purchased goods or services from us
may opt out of the “sale” of “covered information” (as such terms are defined
under Nevada law) for monetary consideration. In some circumstances, we may
share your information with certain third parties that we believe can provide
you with offers and promotions for products and services of interest to you.
This sharing may qualify as a sale under Nevada law. If you are a Nevada
resident who has purchased goods or services from us, you may submit a request
to opt out of “sales” activity emailing us at
privacy_policy@discovery.com. Please note we may take reasonable steps to verify
your identity and the authenticity of the request.


10. HOW WE PROTECT CHILDREN’S INFORMATION

Discovery Services are generally directed to adults and not intended for use by
children under the age of thirteen (13), we do not allow children to provide
their “personal information” (as defined by the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy
Protection Act or “COPPA”) on these Services, and we will delete such
information in a reasonable period of time if we become aware of it. In some
limited cases, Discovery does offer Services that are intended for use by
children under thirteen (13); please see the privacy notices posted on those
services for more information. If you have any questions about our practices
with respect to children’s privacy or to request that we delete personal
information provided by your child, please contact us at
privacy_policy@discovery.com.


11. HOW WE MAINTAIN AND SECURE THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We maintain the information we collect for as long as necessary to provide the
Services, for so as long as reasonably required to satisfy the purpose for which
you submitted the information or our business purposes, or as required by law.

We take technical and organizational security measures to protect your
information against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss,
alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access. However, no method of
transmission over the internet, and no means of electronic or physical storage,
is absolutely secure. As such, you acknowledge and accept that we cannot
guarantee the security of your information transmitted to, through, or on our
Services or via the Internet and that any such transmission is at your own risk.

If you create an account or register with any of our Services, you are
responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your password at all times.


12. THIRD-PARTY SITES, SERVICES, AND FEATURES

Our Services may contain links to third-party websites (e.g., online stores that
offer products for purchase), third-party plug-ins (e.g., social-sharing
buttons), and third-party features (e.g., banner advertisements). These
third-party services may collect information from or about you when you interact
with them, and in some cases, they may track your activity, including through
the use of cookies or other tracking technologies, without you needing to
interact with them. We are not responsible for the content or practices of such
third parties, and their collection, use, and disclosure of your information
will be subject to their privacy policies, and not this Notice. We urge you to
read the privacy and security policies of these third parties.


13. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

This Notice and all disputes arising hereunder or relating hereto shall be
governed by, and will be construed under, the laws of the State of New York,
without regard to choice of law principles. Those who choose to access the
Services from locations outside the United States do so on their own initiative
and are responsible for compliance with local laws if and to the extent local
laws are applicable. By using the Services, you agree that the exclusive
jurisdiction for any dispute not subject to any applicable arbitration clause in
our Terms of Use or Visitor Agreement shall be the state and federal courts
located in New York.


14. UPDATES TO THE NOTICE

We may change this Notice from time to time as our services, technology, and
legal obligations change. If we make changes, we will post the updated Notice
and revise the “Last Updated” date. Any changes will be effective immediately
upon posting of the revised Notice, and your continued use of the Services after
that date will indicate your consent to any changes, unless applicable law
requires us to provide another form of notice and/or seek your agreement to such
changes.


15. HOW TO CONTACT US

For any questions or complaints regarding this Notice or Discovery privacy
practices, please contact us at: privacy_policy@discovery.com

 


CALIFORNIA PRIVACY NOTICE

Notice. This Notice applies to website visitors, app users, and customers in

specific privacy rights.

CALIFORNIA INFORMATION & DELETION RIGHTS

If you are a California resident, the CCPA allows you to make certain requests
about your personal information. Specifically, the CCPA allows you to request us
to:

 * Inform you about the categories of personal information we collect or
   disclose about you; the categories of
   sources of such information, the business or commercial purpose for
   collecting your personal information, and
   the categories of third parties with whom we share/disclose personal
   information;
 * Provide access to and/or a copy of certain personal information we hold about
   you;
 * Delete certain personal information we have about you; and
 * Provide you with information about the financial incentives that we offer to
   you, if any.

Please note that certain information may be exempt from such requests under
California law. For example, we need certain information in order to provide the
Services to you.

Verification: We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before
responding to a request, which may include, at a minimum, depending on the
sensitivity of the information you are requesting and the type of request you
are making, verifying your name, e-mail address, and physical address.

You are also permitted to designate an authorized agent to submit certain
requests on your behalf. In order for an authorized agent to be verified, you
must provide the authorized agent with signed, written permission to make such
requests or a power of attorney. We may also follow up with you to verify your
identity before processing the authorized agent’s request.

If you would like further information regarding your legal rights under
California law or would like to exercise any of them, please submit your request
using the following intake form:

If you prefer, you may contact us at the following toll-free phone number to
make your request: +1-866-324-3637.

For information about the Access, Deletion, and Do Not Sell Opt-Out requests
Discovery has received and processed since July 2020 see here.


NOTICE OF RIGHT TO OPT-OUT OF SALE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

California residents may opt out of the “sale” of their personal information.
Under the CCPA, “sale” is broadly defined to mean the sharing of personal
information with third parties who are not acting as our service providers or
who are otherwise not restricted from using data only on our behalf or pursuant
to an applicable CCPA exception.

In some circumstances, we may share certain of your information with third
parties to provide you with offers, promotions, and opportunities that may be of
interest to you, which may be considered a “sale” under the CCPA. Under the
CCPA, “sale” may also include allowing third parties to “collect” certain
information, such as IP address, and/or browsing behavior, through cookies and
similar technologies, to deliver targeted advertising on the Services or other
services. Advertising, including targeted advertising, enables us to provide you
certain content for free and allows us to provide you offers relevant to you.

If you would like to opt out of our use of your information for such purposes
that are considered a “sale” under California law, you may do so as outlined on
the following page: Do Not Sell My Personal Information. Please note that we do
not knowingly sell the personal information of minors under 16 years of age
without legally-required affirmative authorization.

The CCPA further provides you with the right to not be discriminated against (as
provided for in applicable law) for exercising your access, deletion or sale opt
out rights.


CALIFORNIA “SHINE THE LIGHT” DISCLOSURE

If a company shares “personal information” (as defined in California’s “Shine
the Light” law, Civil Code § 1798.83) with third parties for their direct
marketing purposes (e.g., to send offers and information that may be of interest
to you), California law requires either providing a mechanism by which consumers
can obtain more information about such sharing over the prior calendar year, or
providing a mechanism by which consumers can opt out of such sharing. As
discussed above, we provide an opt out for this sharing. If you are a California
resident and would like to opt out of sharing pursuant to this law, please use
the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” link above.
