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.

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.

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.

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. F. HOW WE PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION We use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure.
