A. INTRODUCTION

This Privacy Notice (the “Privacy Notice”) applies to the U.S. website, mobile
application or other digital service or when you subscribe to a print or online
publication or service (each a “Magazine Service”) linking to this Privacy
Notice and owned or operated by Hearst Magazine Media, Inc. or its affiliates
(“we”, “us”, “our” or “Hearst”). This Privacy Notice describes the privacy
practices of Hearst only and does not cover the practices of other companies,
including those that may advertise or sponsor content, products or services on
the Magazine Services.


B. WHAT INFORMATION WE OBTAIN

When you use a Magazine Service, we may obtain various types of information
related to you and your use of the Magazine Service. This may include
information that directly identifies you such as your name, address, or contact
information (this type of information may be called “personal information,”
“personal data,” or “personally identifiable information”). Certain pieces of
information we obtain (for example, account login, payment card information,
race or ethnicity) may be considered “sensitive” under privacy laws. The
information we obtain generally consists of information (1) you give us about
yourself, (2) you give us about others, (3) automatically collected about your
interactions with the Magazine Services and our content or ads on third-party
websites, apps or other media, and (4) we get from other sources.

1. INFORMATION YOU GIVE US

We may ask you to provide information about yourself when you use the Magazine
Services. For example, to subscribe to one of our newsletters, you will need to
give us an email address. You may not be able to use certain features if you
choose not to submit the requested information.

The information you give us may include details such as:

 * Contact information (e.g., name, mailing address, email address or phone
   number).
 * Demographic, interests and household information (e.g., age, gender or
   education).
 * Payment information for subscriptions or purchases made through the Magazine
   Services (e.g., payment card number, expiration date and billing information
   collected via our third-party payment processors).
 * Comments, photos, videos and other content or information you choose to
   publish on the Magazine Services or otherwise share with us.
 * Information you provide when you choose to participate in surveys, polls,
   sweepstakes, contests or promotions (including information about your
   participation in activities that may generate loyalty or rewards points).
 * Location information, which may include precise location information when you
   permit the Magazine Services to access device location. To prevent the
   collection of precise location information, please refer to instructions
   provided by your mobile service provider or device manufacturer.
 * Other information you may allow us to access through your device’s
   permissions settings, such as your contacts or address book.
 * Transactional and activity information (e.g., requests, searches or orders).

2. INFORMATION YOU GIVE US ABOUT OTHERS

You may give us information about other people, such as the name and email of a
friend or contact with whom you want to share an article, the name and address
of a gift subscription recipient, or if you participate in a survey or a
research initiative. Do not give us information about others unless you are
authorized or have their consent to do so. We will use their information for the
purposes described in this Privacy Notice.

3. INFORMATION AUTOMATICALLY COLLECTED

The Magazine Services automatically log certain information about visits to the
Magazine Services, such as the number and frequency of visitors, technical
information about browsers and devices used to access the Magazine Services, and
information about crashes or other technical issues. In addition, we and third
parties may automatically collect certain information through automated means
about your activities over time across the Magazine Services as well as across
third-party sites, apps or other media. The tools that collect this information
vary depending on the Magazine Services and include technologies such as
cookies, web beacons, tags, scripts, pixels, and software development kits
(“SDKs”). These technologies may be included in our web pages, mobile apps,
emails, and other digital content. The tools may assign or collect unique cookie
IDs or other identifiers associated with your browser or device. The tools may
collect information while you are using our Magazine Services or while they are
running in the background of your device.

The information automatically collected may include:

 * Information about your computer, device, browser and operating system (e.g.,
   type, model, or version).
 * Internet protocol (IP) address, which may be used to derive your general
   geographic area (e.g., city and country).
 * Device identifiers (e.g., mobile advertising IDs).
 * Information about your interactions with the Magazine Services, including
   browsing activities and clickstream data that reflect the content you have
   accessed, clicked on, or viewed.
 * Information about how you accessed the Magazine Services, including details
   about websites or apps visited immediately before or after accessing a
   Magazine Service.
 * Demographic, interests and household information.
 * Information about your interactions with email messages and other
   communications, such as whether you opened or forwarded the email or clicked
   on links contained in the email.

For more information about the use of automated means in the context of targeted
advertising and how you can limit tracking for advertising and marketing
purposes, see section C. 3 For advertising and marketing purposes, including
targeted advertising.

4. INFORMATION WE OBTAIN FROM OTHER SOURCES

We receive information about you from other sources and it may be combined with
other information about you. For example, we may obtain data from:

 * Operators of third-party sites or apps, content distribution channels and
   platforms (e.g., Roku, Amazon Fire TV), voice-activated assistants (e.g.,
   Amazon Alexa, Google Home) or other devices and technologies when you
   interact with our content, products, services or ads available on those
   channels and platforms. The information we receive may include information
   about the content you view or access as well as your demographic information
   and information about your interests.
 * Third-party data suppliers such as data aggregators, data resellers, public
   databases and business partners. They may provide us with demographic
   information, information about your purchases, and other information that
   helps us learn about you and other users of the Magazine Services.
 * Social Media Platforms and similar services (“Social Media Platforms”). When
   you engage with our content or ads on Social Media Platforms, or interact
   with features on the Magazine Services that contain content or features
   provided by Social Media Platforms (e.g., login or sign in features or tools
   that allow you to share our content with others on Social Media Platforms),
   we may obtain information from Social Media Platforms, including your
   username, user ID, demographic information and other information, subject to
   the settings and privacy practices of the relevant Social Media Platform. We
   may obtain this information directly from the Social Media Platform or
   through plug-ins, integrations or applications. Please keep in mind that the
   operators of the Social Media Platforms may also gather information about
   your use of the Magazine Services and their features and tools.


C. HOW WE USE INFORMATION WE OBTAIN

If you make a purchase or place an order through or in connection with a
Magazine Service (including for paid content), we use your payment card
information (e.g., your card number and expiration date) for limited purposes
such as to process your transaction (including recurring payments, if
applicable), to provide you with the requested products or services and for the
purposes described under the section “To protect our rights or the rights of
others” below.

With respect to information other than your payment card information, we use
that information:

 1. To provide you with the Magazine Services. This includes:
    * Processing your requests regarding the Magazine Services and our
      subscriptions, products or services, or your participation in a survey,
      sweepstakes, contest, promotion, event or similar initiative.
    * Providing customer assistance or technical support.
    * Customizing content, providing recommendations and enhancing the quality
      and your overall experience with the Magazine Services, including by
      retaining your user preferences or presenting content in the most
      effective manner for the browser or device you use to access the Magazine
      Services.
    * Maintaining, operating, improving and developing the Magazine Services and
      related content, products or services, including developing new products
      and features based on users’ interactions with the Magazine Services.
    * Learning about users of the Magazine Services and analyzing how you and
      others interact with and respond to the Magazine Services, including by
      measuring and optimizing usage, reliability and performance, conducting
      market research, analyzing trends, and supporting our operations (e.g.,
      for accounting, auditing, financial, legal or other purposes).
    
    
 2. To communicate with you. This includes:
    * Sending you informational messages about the Magazine Services (e.g., to
      confirm your subscription or notify you of changes to a Magazine Service).
    * Delivering marketing or promotional communications, including offers or
      promotions about our or third parties’ products, services or other
      initiatives.
    * Responding to your questions or addressing your requests.
    * Communicating with you about surveys, sweepstakes, contests, promotions or
      events.
    
    
 3. For advertising and marketing purposes, including targeted advertising. This
    includes:
    * Developing, managing and conducting advertising and marketing campaigns,
      promotions and offers, including about our content, products and services
      or third parties’ products, services and other initiatives.
    * Targeted advertising (also known as online behavioral advertising) is
      advertising based on your interests in topics and content based on your
      activities over time on the Magazine Services and online services operated
      by third parties, as well as information from other sources, including
      information collected offline.  Targeted ads may consist of text ads,
      images, animations or videos and may be displayed to you based on various
      factors, including the context of the site or app in which they appear
      (e.g., sport or travel section), information you provided to the operator
      of the site or app (e.g., when you created an account), your activities on
      the site or app (e.g., pages viewed, searches performed or ads clicked),
      and information such as your demographic, interests and household
      information.
      * On the Magazine Services and on third-party sites, apps or other media,
        we, our service providers and third parties may use automated means to
        (a) collect information for targeted advertising purposes or (b) serve
        you targeted ads. These automated means vary depending on the Magazine
        Services and include technologies such as cookies, web beacons, tags,
        scripts, pixels, and SDKs. These technologies may use unique identifiers
        associated with your browser or device to support targeted advertising.
      * We may use and/or combine online and offline information we obtain about
        you, including your personal information, for targeted advertising
        purposes. We may aggregate the information we obtain to create audiences
        that are most likely to respond to ads based on demographic, interests
        or household information.
      * Targeted ads may be displayed to you by third parties, such as ad
        networks or exchanges.
      * There are steps you can take to limit the collection of your information
        for targeted advertising purposes. These steps vary for the web and
        mobile app environments and are browser and device specific. To learn
        more about targeted advertising and opt-out choices, see
        http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ and in the section DAA Industry
        Opt-Out.
      * In serving targeted ads, we adhere to the Self-Regulatory Principles for
        Online Behavioral Advertising developed by the Digital Advertising
        Alliance.
    * Cross-device linking. If you access the Magazine Services from multiple
      browsers or devices, we, our service providers and third parties may try
      to establish connections among and link the different browsers and devices
      you use to access the Magazine Services and our content or ads published
      elsewhere. This helps us provide you with a seamless experience across the
      browsers and devices you use and serve you with more relevant content and
      ads (e.g., so that we don’t show you the same article twice). See section
      Website (Browser) Opt-Outs for steps you can take to limit browser and
      mobile app tracking for targeted advertising purposes.
    * Analyzing and measuring the performance, effectiveness and reach of our
      advertising (including interest-based ads) and marketing efforts on the
      Magazine Services and elsewhere.
 4. To protect our rights or the rights of others. This includes:
    * Detecting, preventing and responding to fraud or potentially illegal
      activities, misuse of the Magazine Services, intellectual property
      infringement or other violations of law, this Privacy Notice, our Terms of
      Use or other Hearst policies.
    * Performing audits, assessments and testing or troubleshooting activities.
    * Backing up our systems (including for disaster recovery purposes) and
      enhancing the overall security of the Magazine Services.
    * Complying with and enforcing applicable industry and legal requirements
      (including legal process such as court orders, warrants or subpoenas) and
      fulfilling contractual obligations.


D. HOW WE PROVIDE INFORMATION TO OTHERS

We may provide the information we obtain to:

 1. Affiliates and Subsidiaries. We work closely with affiliates and
    subsidiaries within the Hearst family of companies to whom we provide your
    information as necessary or appropriate.
 2. Service Providers. In connection with the operation and provision of the
    Magazine Services, we engage various vendors to provide services or handle
    transactions on our behalf, such as payment card processing, email
    distribution, list processing, postal mailing, cloud computing, analytics,
    digital content performance measurement, ad serving and managing
    sweepstakes, contests, promotions or events. These service providers use the
    information we provide to them as necessary or appropriate for the
    performance of their services.
 3. Advertisers, Advertising- and Marketing-Related Service Providers and
    Partners. We may provide your information to advertisers, advertising
    agencies, ad networks, ad exchanges, marketing businesses, technology
    vendors and other entities that create, deliver and assess advertising or
    marketing campaigns, including targeted ads.
 4. Content Measurement Companies. We and third parties seek to measure the
    performance of content across the internet, including on the Magazine
    Services. We may include third-party measurement software in the Magazine
    Services to enable market research or to measure digital and video content
    consumption. 
 5. Social Media Platforms. If you interact with social media widgets, share
    content using social media share buttons, or access features of the Magazine
    Services that contain content or features provided by Social Media
    Platforms, the relevant Social Media Platforms may collect information. We
    encourage you to review the privacy policies of the Social Media Platforms
    that you engage with as we are not responsible for their privacy practices.
 6. Business Partners. We may provide your information to business partners
    including, without limitation, joint marketing partners and content
    sponsors, for various purposes. For example, we may partner with a third
    party to offer products on a co-branded, co-sponsored or cross-promotional
    basis that involves providing your information to others. We may share your

separate requests from these devices or for these websites.

Right to Opt Out of Sale/Targeted Advertising: We may provide your personal
information to third parties for “targeted advertising” purposes or in ways that

    request).

    or provided to you when you elected to receive text message marketing.

    purposes. You must contact the relevant third party directly to exercise
    your opt out choices with respect to such party’s use of your information.

ADDITIONAL OPT-OUT METHODS

In addition to the rights afforded throughout this Notice, through the “Your
Privacy Choices (Opt Out of Sale/Targeted Ads)” links on our websites and
through the form available at accessprivacy.hearstmags.com, there are industry
frameworks and settings made available to you by device manufacturers that
enable you to adjust your preferences with respect to the data collected about
you and the ads that you may see. The section below provides more information
about these settings.

DAA Industry Opt-Out

Some of the ads you see on the Magazine Services are targeted ads (this is also
known as online behavioral advertising) described in section C. 3 For
advertising and marketing purposes, including targeted advertising. We describe
below steps you can take to limit tracking of your activities and the delivery
of targeted ads in browsers and mobile apps you use to access the Magazine
Services. Please keep in mind that if you opt out of targeted ads, you will
still see ads, but these ads will not be based on your inferred interests. In
addition, if you take the steps described below, some automated means may still
be used to collect information about your interactions with the Magazine
Services for the other purposes described in this Privacy Notice (e.g., to
remember user preferences or enable specific functionality).

The technologies used to deliver ads on websites and mobile apps differ. Please
also remember that opt-outs are browser and device-specific.

Website (Browser) Opt-Out

 1. Disabling Cookies. Most browsers accept cookies by default. You may be able
    to change the settings to have your browser refuse certain cookies or notify
    you before accepting cookies.
    * If you choose to disable the use of cookies in your web browser, some
      features of the Magazine Services may become difficult to use or
      unavailable.
 2. Opt-out Cookies. You can follow the instructions provided by the Digital
    Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) here and/or the Network Advertising Initiative
    (“NAI”) here to place an opt-out cookie on your browser. These opt-out
    cookies enable you to block participating companies from installing future
    cookies on your computer or browser.
    * If you place opt-out cookies but subsequently clear or delete cookies on
      your computer or device browser, your opt-out cookies may be deleted and
      you may have to renew your opt-out choices for that specific browser.
    * The opt-out mechanisms offered by the DAA and NAI are provided by third
      parties. Hearst does not control or operate these mechanisms or the
      choices provided through these mechanisms.
    * The Magazine Services may use measurement technology provided by Nielsen,
      including the Nielsen Digital Ad Ratings (DAR) Service for Google Ad
      Manager.  To learn more about Nielsen digital measurement products and
      your choices applicable to them, including in mobile apps and connected
      devices, please visit http://www.nielsen.com/digitalprivacy for more
      information.

Mobile App Opt-Out

 1. Device Settings. To limit targeted advertising on your mobile device, you
    can review and adjust the settings provided by your device manufacturer,
    such as guidance published for iOS or guidance published for Android.
 2. AppChoices Application. You can download the “AppChoices” application
    provided by the DAA from your app store. AppChoices offers a mechanism to
    limit the collection of app data used for targeted ads by participating
    companies. See the AppChoices provided by the DAA for more.

Please keep in mind that as the mobile environment continues to evolve,
additional opt-out mechanisms or privacy settings may become available to you.
We encourage you to review the information on opt-outs and settings that device
manufacturers, technology companies and industry associations make available to
you.

Do Not Track/Global Privacy Control

Hearst does not currently take steps to respond to browser “Do Not Track”
signals as no uniform standard to respond to such signals has been developed at
this time. We do, however, respond to the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) to the
extent required by applicable law, and allow eligible individuals to convey
opt-out preferences when we detect the signal. You can learn more about the GPC
on the Global Privacy Control website.

Smart TVs, Streaming & Other Connected Devices

For connected devices, such as smart TVs or streaming devices, please review the
device’s settings and select the option that allows you to disable automatic
content recognition or ad tracking.  Typically, to opt out, such devices require
you to select options like “limit ad tracking” or to disable options such as
“targeted advertising,” “interactive TV,” or “smart interactivity”.  These
settings vary by device type.

Additional Choices

 1. User account. If you have created an account on a Magazine Service, you may
    be able to review some of your information for that account by logging in
    and updating your information or user preferences.
 2. Device Settings. For relevant Magazine Services, you may be able to review
    and adjust your preferences by updating the settings on your device (e.g.,
    permitting us to collect precise location information).
 3. Push Notifications. If a Magazine Service enables push notifications on your
    device, you may review and update your push notification preferences by
    adjusting the settings on your device. For example, you can select the
    relevant app from “Notifications” (for iOS devices) or “App notifications”
    (for Android devices) and turn off alerts accordingly.

O. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR EUROPEAN VISITORS

In order to address our legal obligations in Europe (including the UK), Hearst
provides the following additional information for Europe-based visitors to
Hearst's U.S. Magazine Services.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR INFORMATION?

If you use or interact with a Hearst U.S. Magazine Service then the data
controller will be Hearst Magazine Media, Inc. (except with respect to Car and
Driver and Road & Track, for which U.S. Magazine Service the data controller
will be Hearst Autos, Inc.). The contact details for this entity are provided in
the “Contact Us” section above.

LEGAL BASES FOR USING YOUR INFORMATION

We process personal information for different purposes (as described in the “How
We Use Information We Obtain” section, above) on the following legal bases:

 * To perform our contractual obligations to you. We and our service providers
   process your information to perform our contractual obligations to you when
   we use your information to provide you with the Magazine Services and related
   content, products or services and to communicate with you. For example, when
   you purchase a subscription from us, we process your payment and contact
   information as necessary to confirm the subscription and we process your
   contact information and other details to provide you with support services
   you request. We also send you informational communications on this basis,
   including to confirm a subscription or to notify you of a change to a
   Magazine Service. Failure to provide requested information could prevent or
   delay the fulfilment of our contractual obligations.
 * To pursue our legitimate interests. We process your information to meet our
   legitimate interests when we use your information to provide you with the
   Magazine Services and related content, products or services, to communicate
   with you and for our advertising and marketing purposes. For example, our
   legitimate interests include making improvements to, customizing and
   understanding how you interact with the Magazine Services and related
   content, products or services, and sending you communications about products
   and services we think may be of interest to you. To accomplish our legitimate
   interests, we may share your information with our affiliates and
   subsidiaries, service providers and business partners (including for our
   advertising and marketing purposes) and in the context of a corporate
   transaction. We maintain safeguards to protect the information we process to
   pursue our legitimate interests.
 * To comply with our legal obligations. We process and share your information
   as necessary to comply with our legal obligations when we use your
   information to protect our rights or the rights of others and when we share
   your information with other parties where required by law or as necessary to
   protect our rights. For example, we are required to collect certain
   information from you when processing your subscription payment for tax or
   financial reporting reasons.
 * With your consent. We obtain your consent to process your information when we
   are required to do so by law. If consent is the legal basis on which we
   process your personal information, you can withdraw your consent at any time
   by contacting us using the information provided in the “Contact Us” section
   above.

YOUR RIGHTS OVER YOUR INFORMATION

In certain circumstances, you have a right to access or object to the use of
personal information held about you (including in relation to direct marketing).
You can also ask us to rectify, update, erase, restrict or to share your
information in a usable format with another company. Such requests are subject
to applicable law.

We encourage you to contact us to update or correct your information if it
changes or if the personal information we hold about you is inaccurate.

If you would like to discuss or exercise such rights, please contact us at
datarequestsmagazines@hearst.com. We will contact you if we need additional
information from you in order to honor your requests.

STORING YOUR INFORMATION

We will keep your personal information for as long as we have a relationship
with you. Once our relationship with you has come to an end, we will retain your
personal information for a period of time that enables us to:

 * Maintain business records for analysis, understanding market trends and/or
   audit purposes and to improve the Magazine Services.
 * Comply with record retention requirements under applicable laws or other
   relevant legal or regulatory requirements.
 * Defend, establish, exercise or bring any existing or potential legal claims.
 * Carry out fraud detection and prevention.
 * Deal with any complaints regarding the Magazine Services, our products and
   services.

We will delete your personal information when it is no longer required for these
purposes. If there is any information that we are unable, for technical reasons,
to delete from our systems, we will put in place appropriate measures to prevent
any further processing or use of the data.

INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

Information collected through the Magazine Services will be processed in and
subject to the laws of the United States, which may not provide the same level
of protection for your personal information as your home country. If we transfer
personal data from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland we
put in place safeguards. In particular, such safeguards include the European
Commission-approved standard contractual clauses. For more information on these
safeguards, please contact us at the details provided in the “Contact Us”
section above. We participate in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (“EU-U.S.
DPF”), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy
Framework (“Swiss-U.S. DPF”). Read our Data Privacy Framework Statement to learn
more.

CHANGES TO THE PRIVACY NOTICE

Where changes to this Privacy Notice have a fundamental impact on the nature of
the processing or otherwise have a substantial impact on you, we will give you
advanced notice so that you have the opportunity to exercise your rights (e.g.
to object to the processing).
