2. What types of information do we collect and use?
We collect both Personal Information and Non-Personal Information. We collect a variety of Personal Information voluntarily submitted by you via our Services, email, telephone, instant messaging, facsimile, postal mail, texts, mobile applications (“Apps”), or via third party websites such as Facebook, Twitter or other social networking platforms, or in-person.

Personal Information and Non-Personal Information definitions:
Generally, Personal Information is information that can be used to identify or contact a specific inpidual, such as your name, postal address, email address and telephone number, or data that can be reasonably linked to a specific consumer, computer or other device. Non-Personal Information is information that may not directly identify or enable contact of a specific inpidual, such as an Internet Protocol (“IP”) address or mobile device unique identifier, particularly if that data is de-identified (meaning it becomes anonymous). Aggregated information is also classified as Non-Personal Information because an inpidual person cannot be identified. However, Non-Personal Information linked to or associated with Personal Information will also be classified as Personal Information.]

The primary purpose of the News Registry is to monitor a User’s use of news and editorial content from its initial publication on a Sites’ webpage (whether accessed via a computer or mobile device), to when news and editorial content is reposted on other websites or online services (such as on Facebook, Twitter or other social networking platforms, blogs, texts, or web-based email systems) or other forms of digital communications.

Click here for more information about the type of Non-Personal Information the News Registry collects from Users and how it is used. Please refer to the NewsRight News Registry privacy policy for your opt-out choices.
How does the NewsRight News Registry work?: The News Registry collects, and uses the following Non-Personal Information for its analytics service:
1) for news and editorial content that is “clicked-to” or posted from another website or source, we collect the identification of the referring URL of that traffic; and 2) log information to help identify how, where and when news and editorial content is accessed or viewed. Each time you request a webpage that includes news and editorial content monitored by the News Registry, the News Registry’s server records information that your browser sends to it, including the identifier of any cookie that the Registry has previously set on your browser (if you have one), the URL of the page where you accessed the content, your IP address (which the Registry uses to infer your general geographic location), your browser and operating system types, and the date and time that the content was accessed). The News Registry may also enhance or combine information collected about news and editorial content consumption with other analytical sources and data, such as domain name ownership background information, the author, owner, licensor or licensee of the news and editorial content, News Registry data collected from JCI Affiliates, and predictions about a User’s age, gender, or other demographics.

5. How do we tailor and personalize content and advertising on our Services?
Advertising supports the free content, services, features and activities we provide on our Services. We and our Operational Service Providers use cookies, web beacons and other similar technology to enrich your experience on our Services by serving relevant, tailored and personalized advertising and/or content from JBG or JCI to you. Such advertising and content is based on information you provide to us; your use of our content, features and activities; your visits, search, transaction and/or purchase history; visits to our Facebook fan page and/or predictions made about you based on all of these elements. (Click here for information about cookies and web beacons.)
- Contextual Advertising: For example, we may serve you an advertisement for the annual Auto Show based on a used car dealer ad you just viewed or a search about used cars on one of our Services; this type of relevant advertising based on particular content or search query is called “Contextual Advertising” because it is based on the context of how you use our Services. We do not collect any other information about you for Contextual Advertising.
- First Party Advertising: Advertising that is tailored or personalized based on a history of your use of content and participation in features and activities on our Services (possibly combined with information from our Facebook fan page or other social network platforms) over time is called “First Party Advertising” because it is based solely on a combination of information we collect from you – not from your visits to other websites or from third parties. We may share such information anonymously with our Advertisers in order to measure the effectiveness of ads on our Services, such as how many Users opened or acted on a particular ad, but this information may be shared with JCI but not with other non-JCI Affiliates.
- Network Advertising: Information about your use of our Services combined with similar information about your overall Internet usage across different third party websites or online services used to serve tailored and personalized advertising is generally called “Network Advertising.” Multiple third party websites and online services are involved in this tailored or personalized advertising process, in essence a “network” of advertising providers. Such information about you could include information about your browser, computer, and/or mobile device and general information about your demographics (whether you have provided such information voluntarily or such information is estimated based on your usage history and interests), such as your gender, age, lifestyle, education, home ownership, geographic location, etc. Click here for more information about how to identify a Network Advertising ad.

This icon is part of the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. For more information see www.aboutads.info.
We expect our Operational Service Providers, their service providers and any Advertiser that collects and uses your website usage information for the delivery of Network Advertising on our Services to comply with the industry Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising and provide you with a clear and prominent notice and explanation how your Personal Information and/or Non-Personal Information are used to deliver tailored and personalized advertising. We also expect such entities to abide by the industry’s Self-Regulatory Principles for Multi-Site Data that limits the collection and restricts the use of Personal Information for determining eligibility for employment, credit, health care and insurance.
