Privacy Policy

Introduction

Daily Voice takes your right to privacy seriously, and we want you to feel comfortable using this web site. This privacy policy deals with personally-identifiable information (referred to as "data" below) that may be collected by this site. This policy does not apply to other entities that are not owned or controlled by Daily Voice (and we suggest that you review those sites' policies to learn more about their privacy practices), nor does it apply to persons that are not employees or agents of Daily Voice, or that are not under Daily Voice's control. Daily Voice is based in the United States. If you voluntarily submit Personal Information to us while located or residing in a country outside the United States, you understand that you are voluntarily agreeing to the use and processing of such information as provided in this Privacy Policy, including transfer of your information to the United States, a jurisdiction which may not offer the same framework for the protection of personal information as the jurisdiction in which you are located. Please take time to read this site's Terms of Use.

1. Collection of data

Certain visitors to this website interact in ways that require Daily Voice to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Daily Voice gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, registration for an account on this site requires a valid e-mail address. Please be aware that the e-mail address you provide and any other information you enter may render you personally identifiable, and may possibly be displayed on this web site intentionally (depending on choices you make during the registration process, or depending on the way in which the site is configured) or unintentionally (subsequent to a successful act of intrusion by a third party). As on many web sites, Daily Voice may also automatically receive general information that is contained in server log files, such as your IP address and cookie information. Information about how advertising may be served on this site is set forth below. When you use Daily Voice, we may automatically recognize information like your IP address, what type of device you're using, high-level location information (e.g., city or state), and your user behavior (such as how long you stay on the website and which links you click on). Some of the third-party vendors that we use to provide services for Daily Voice (e.g. analytics) may also use their own tracking technologies on our digital properties to help us run and optimize our platforms. These third parties may collect information about your online activities over time and across the Daily Voice platform and other online properties. Users who wish to opt out of Google Analytics data collection may use Google's own browser add-on to do so.

2. Use of data

Data may be used to customize and improve your user experience on this site, to allow us to better respond to your customer service inquiries, to administer contests, promotions, surveys or other site features, or to send you periodic emails or other communications. Efforts will be made to prevent your data being made available to third parties unless (i) provided for otherwise in this Privacy Policy; (ii) your consent is obtained, such as when you choose to opt-in or opt-out for the sharing of data; (iii) a service provided on our site requires interaction with a third party, or is provided by a third party, such as an application service provider; (iv) pursuant to legal action or law enforcement; (v) it is found that your use of this site violates Daily Voice's policy, Terms of Use, or other usage guidelines, or if it is deemed reasonably necessary by Daily Voice to protect Daily Voice's legal rights and/or property; or (vi) this site is purchased by a third party, in which case that third party will be able to use the data in the same manner as set forth in this policy. In the event you choose to use links displayed on this web site to visit other web sites, you are advised to read the privacy policies published on those sites. Note that aggregated and non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.

3. Cookies

Like many web sites, this web site sets and uses cookies to enhance your user experience -- to remember your personal settings, for instance. Advertisements may display on this web site and, if so, may set and access cookies on your computer; such cookies are subject to the privacy policy of the parties providing the advertisement. However, the parties providing the advertising do not have access to this site's cookies. These parties usually use non-personally-identifiable or anonymous codes to obtain information about your visits to this site. If you disable cookies in your browser, some features of the site experience may not function properly.

4. Third-party links

Occasionally, at Daily Voice's discretion, we may include or offer third-party products or services on our website. These third-party sites have separate and independent privacy policies. The tracking technologies used by such third parties are subject to their own privacy policies, and we are not involved in or responsible for their activities or use of any data they collect. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of our site and welcome any feedback about these sites.

5. Google

We use Google Analytics and Google advertising products on our website. Google's advertising requirements can be summed up by Google's Advertising Principles. They are put in place to provide a positive experience for users. See: https://support.google.com/adwordspolicy/answer/1316548?hl=en.

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site. Google's use of cookies enables it to serve ads to our users based on previous visits to our site and other sites on the Internet. Users may opt-out of the use of Google cookies by visiting the Google Ad and Content Network privacy policy.

We have implemented the following:

(a) Remarketing with Google AdSense

(b) Google Display Network Impression Reporting

(c) Demographics and Interests Reporting

(d) DoubleClick Platform Integration

Daily Voice, along with third-party vendors such as Google use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) or other third-party identifiers together to compile data regarding user interactions with ad impressions and other ad service functions as they relate to this website.

Users can set preferences for how Google advertises to you using the Google Ad Settings page. Alternatively, you can opt out by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative Opt Out page or by using the Google Analytics Opt Out Browser add on.

6. LiveRamp

When you use our website, we 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 partner/service provider, 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.

7. Common ID

Daily Voice uses a module called Common ID, which stores a unique ID for each user on our sites. This ID may be provided to advertising partners. Daily Voice allows its users to opt out of Common ID if they choose. To opt out of Common ID, click here.

8. Amazon APS

When you use our website, we share your email (in hashed form) with our partner/service provider, Amazon.com, Inc. This hashed email may be provided to advertising partners. Daily Voice allows its users to opt out of sharing hashed emails with Amazon if they choose. To opt out, click here. If you wish to opt out of all Amazon interest-based advertising (IBA), you may do so by visiting the WebChoices tool offered by the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA).

9. Information Security and Storage

Daily Voice uses services that feature industry-standard digital, and training-based security measures to protect user information against theft and misuse. All Daily Voice websites are protected by Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) security features.

10. We May Share Information in Limited Circumstances

(a) With Vendors. At the present time, Daily Voice does not share any of its viewers' Personal Information with any vendors, except as we discuss above in section 5.

(b) For Mailing Lists. We may occasionally share users' email addresses with carefully selected businesses and organizations. If you do not want your address exchanged in this way, please contact us at the address or email address set forth below to ask that your name and address be removed from any shared mailing lists. It is Daily Voice policy not to sell or exchange email addresses with any other company or organization except with content partners.

(c) As Required by Law. If we determine on a good faith basis that we are required by law (e.g., pursuant to a subpoena or judicial order) to share your personal or other information, we will endeavor to share it only to the extent we determine is reasonably necessary to comply with the request.

11. Minors

Daily Voice might not allow persons who are aged thirteen or younger to become members of this site. For more information, please contact the site administrator.

12. Retaining Your Information

Because we value the longevity of our relationships with our supporters, we do generally retain user information in our database. If you would like to access, transfer, review, or correction of or to your Personal Information, or to request that it be deleted or restricted in use, please contact us — depending on your location or country of residence, you may have a legal right to make these requests and to contact supervisory authorities if you are not satisfied with our response.

13. Editing or deleting your account information

You are provided with the ability to edit the information stored for your user account information during registration, by visiting your user account control panel. You can request that your user account be deleted; to do so, please contact the site administrator. Content or other data that you may have provided, and that is not stored within your user account, such as articles published, may continue to remain on the site at Daily Voice's discretion, even after your user account is deleted. Please see the site's Terms of Use for more information.

14. Changes to this privacy policy

Changes may be made to this policy from time to time, and in Daily Voice's sole discretion. Daily Voice encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its privacy policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this privacy policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.

15. NO GUARANTEES

While this privacy policy states standards for maintenance of data, and while efforts will be made to meet the said standards, Daily Voice is not in a position to guarantee compliance with these standards. There may be factors beyond Daily Voice's control that may result in disclosure of data. Consequently, Daily Voice offers no warranties or representations as regards maintenance or non-disclosure of data.

16. Notification in case of a breach

We will comply with all pertinent laws that require us to notify you in the event your personal data is lost, stolen, or inadvertently disclosed.
