5155## **2\. About this Privacy Notice**
5256
5357This Privacy Notice tells you about the kinds of information we hold about you, what we do with it, and why.
119123We then use those "audiences" to do two things: first, to help us to recommend content which is more likely to be interesting (for instance, more articles about football), and second to help us to target advertisements when advertisers buy advertising space from us directly.
120124
121125The advertiser would never see the actual data that we use - it remains with Reach at all times. All we would share with them would be the criteria we used to target their advert, how many times their advert was shown and how many people clicked on it (but not who), so that they know how well the advert did and we know how much to charge them.
122126
123127#### **3.1.2. Our legal basis**
124128
125We capture your activity on our websites and in our apps on the basis of your consent, which we ask for through our "cookie banner" and related Consent Management Platform (CMP) - Please see our [Cookie Notice](https://www.mirror.co.uk/cookie-policy/) for further information or the 'cog' icon at the bottom left of every webpage to manage your consents. When using our apps if you want to change the settings, go to the 'My Account' Link at the bottom of the screen which includes 'My Privacy' and takes you to the CMP.
129Your activity on our websites and in our apps can be managed by you using our "cookie banner" and related Consent Management Platform (CMP). The vast majority are used on the basis of your consent where you provide it. Some may use our Legitimate Interest and some are Essential - Please see our [Cookie Notice](https://www.mirror.co.uk/cookie-policy/) for further information or the 'cog' icon or link at the bottom of every webpage to manage your consents. When using our apps if you want to change the settings, go to the 'My Account' Link at the bottom of the screen which includes 'My Privacy' and takes you to the CMP.
126130
127131We combine that information with the other things we know about you (like your newsletter subscriptions) on the basis of our legitimate interest in understanding our readership, both to serve you better and to make us more attractive to advertisers. This helps us to secure a future for news reporting and journalism in the age of social media, especially local news reporting and journalism.
128132
129You do, of course, have an absolute right to object to this. You can always register your objection by contacting [dataprotection@reachplc.com](mailto:dataprotection@reachplc.com).

131135#### **3.1.3. How long we keep it for**
132136
133137We keep the information about your activity on our websites and in our apps for up to up to three years since last browsing activity, with some anonymised browsing activity retained thereafter.

135139#### **3.1.4. Who we share it with and why**
136140
137The data which we use to create the unique identifier and our "audiences" is only shared with the partners who provide us with the technology powering it, most notably Upland Software and Lotame, who host core data management platforms for us. They act as our "processors". This means that they are bound by law and contract to do only what we tell them to do with the data, to keep it safe, and not to share it with anyone else or use it for anything other than providing their service to us.

141Upland Software and Lotame are global businesses and so the data they host for us may be held abroad. We have implemented the required safeguards as necessary (for example, standard agreements approved by the relevant authorities).

145Digital advertising helps us to fund the news articles and content published on our sites and enables us to provide some of our content for free. We and our third-party ad partners may display digital advertising on our sites that is tailored to your interests and preferences so the online adverts you see are more relevant to you. We work with third party ad networks to fill unsold advertising space on our sites and in our apps by auctioning it automatically through a process called "real time bidding". These ad networks bid to show their ad to you when you visit our sites or use our apps. We do not share identifiable information about you with our third-party ad partners.

146150
147The ad networks exchange information through cookies, which allow them to recognise you when you visit any site that they work with (not just Reach sites). Where we use cookies on our sites for advertising purposes, we will always ask for prior consent and where you provide your consent the cookie information will be used along with other information, we hold about you to display digital advertising that is more relevant to you. It is important to note, however, that where you do not provide your consent for digital advertising you will still see digital advertising on our sites, but this will not be tailored to your interests and preferences.

It is important to note, however, that where you do not provide your consent for digital advertising you will still see digital advertising on our sites, but this will not be tailored to your interests and preferences.
148152
153Where you provide consent to using your data to create a profile for digital advertising we may also sell or share limited data types to our partners with whom we have a legally binding relationship for similar purposes; typically data on the page content which you have shown an interest in and online identifiers, not direct identifiers such as your email address. Captify is one such partner. They may act as an independent controller of your data, and their privacy policy is shown here: [Captify Privacy Policy](https://www.captifytechnologies.com/privacy-notice/) .
154
149155#### **3.2.1. The data collected and how it is used**
150156
151157On your first visit to one of our sites or apps (and on other occasions to allow you to change your mind), you will be presented with a "cookie banner". This asks you if you consent to the use of cookies and related technologies for the purposes of, amongst other things, selecting and delivering ads. If you do, then the ad networks will be able to recognise your device according to a unique identification number.
152158
153159We then send out a "bid request" to the advertising networks we work with. What that bid request says is, essentially, "ID number ABC123 has landed on our website, do you want to show this user an advert?" The winner then gets to display their ad.
154160
155161The auction process happens automatically, in the second or so between you requesting the page and it loading and displaying. The data used by the ad networks to select the ad to show is held by them, not us, and we never see it.
156162
163If we sell or share limited data to an ad partner, as described in 3.2, it will be used for profiling and digital marketing on Reach websites and apps, and potentially other sites & apps with whom the partner has a relationship, if you have given permission for that site or app to do so.
164
157165An important point to understand is that most of these ad networks will not know who you are in a "real world" sense. They will not know your name, or your email address, or your phone number (we may know those things because you've given them to us in other contexts, but we never share that information with them).
158166
159We say "most" because there are two significant exceptions, which are Facebook and Google. They make their money by providing targeted advertising services based on the things they know about their users, and so if you are signed into your account with them on your device, they will be able to recognise you and associate your browsing history across sites that use their services.

160168
161Additionally, when you browse our websites or use our mobile applications and when you provide your email address on these (either to log in, or sign up to a newsletter, or similar) we may share it, in hashed, pseudonymised form, with our partner LiveRamp Inc and its group companies, acting as joint controllers. LiveRamp uses this information to create a secure online identification code for the purpose of recognising you for cross-channel advertising. This code is placed in our cookie, does not contain any of your identifiable personal data, and will not be used by LiveRamp to identify you. It may be shared with our advertising partners and other third-party advertisers globally for the purpose of enabling interest-based content or targeted advertising through Reach sites. These third parties may in turn use this code to link demographic or interest-based information you have provided in your interactions with them to the pseudonymised code. Detailed information on LiveRamp's data processing activities is available in [LiveRamp's privacy notice and opt-out](https://liveramp.uk/privacy/service-privacy-policy/). You have the right to withdraw your consent or opt-out to the processing of your personal data at any time via our Cookie Management Platform accessed via the 'cog' icon at the bottom left of every webpage.

172
173If you accept the use of cookies in our Consent Management Platform, when you submit your email address to create an account or sign-up to a newsletter we may share your email address in a hashed form with Amazon Publisher Services (APS). APS then link the hashed email to a profile which they may already hold related to that address. The hashed email will be used in a secure, pseudonymised form within a cookie to flag to APS whenever you visit an APS enabled Reach website again. APS will use this to determine, in real-time, if any of their business customers want to market to a profile similar to yours. If this is the case they may initiate an advert which will appear to you on the Reach website concerned. You have the right to stop this processing activity at any time via the use of 'Reject' on our Cookie Management Platform accessed via the 'cog' icon or link at the bottom of every webpage, or via a form accessible from [section 14]() of this Privacy Notice. The APS Privacy Notice can be found at [APS PN](https://aps.amazon.com/aps/privacy-policy/).

163175#### **3.2.2. Our legal basis**
164176
165The advertising networks undertake this activity on the basis of your consent, which we ask for on their behalf through the 'cookie banner' which appears when you first visit our site. The 'cookie banner' message box will reappear from time to time in case you change your mind, or when something changes (typically every 30 days). Please see our [Cookie Notice](https://www.mirror.co.uk/cookie-policy/) for further information or the 'cog' icon at the bottom left of every webpage to manage your consents. When using our apps if you want to change the settings, go to the 'My Account' Link at the bottom of the screen which includes 'My Privacy' and takes you to the CMP.

166178
167179Most of our third-party advertising partners operate within an industry framework and code of practice issued by the [Internet Advertising Bureau (IAB)](https://iabeurope.eu/) called the "Transparency and Consent Framework", which sets out the technical means for your choices to be passed through the ad networks. It also requires that members adhere to IAB policies and standards of behaviour.
168180
169Advertising partners who do not work within the IAB framework are listed separately in the platform which can be viewed in our Consent Management Platform (CMP) - please see our [Cookie Notice](https://www.mirror.co.uk/cookie-policy/) for further information or click on the 'cog' icon at the bottom left of every webpage. In the Consent Management Platform popup go to the 'Partners' page and scroll down - IAB partners are listed first, then you'll see Non-IAB vendors and finally Google partners.

171183#### **3.2.3. How long we keep it for**
172184
173185We do not ourselves hold a copy of the data gathered by the advertising networks. They will each have their own retention policies which you can find in their privacy notices linked through our 'cookie banner' - these are often short (between 30 and 60 days), because shopping interests change over time.
174186
175187#### **3.2.4. Who we share it with and why**
176188
177When we participate in auctions for unsold advertising space, we send bid requests to third party advertising networks. You can find the list of third-party advertising networks who we work with by clicking on the 'cog' icon at the bottom left of every webpage and reviewing our Consent Management Platform.

180192
181193The digital advertising networks are global in nature and so, while we are predominantly a UK business, this data will travel across international borders, and in particular many automated advertising transactions will be processed in the USA. Where we are the ones making the transfer (typically, we are not), we have implemented the required safeguards as necessary (for example, standard agreements approved by the relevant authorities).
182194
183195### **3.3. Making our sites and apps work properly, diagnosing problems with them, and understanding how they are used so we can make them better**
184196
185197We use the information logged by our servers and certain third-party analytics tools (such as Google Analytics, Mpulse and Hotjar) to help us to spot problems with our digital services, such as page errors or slow loading times, as well as understanding usage patterns and watching for security problems. You can find more information below.
189201We gather data for this purpose in two ways.
190202
191203Firstly, our servers record certain information provided by your devices when they request content, consisting mostly of technical information about your device such as language, screen size and the features and functions it supports, but also including the internet or "IP" address from which it is connecting, and the page or data requested. The data is used for system performance, content delivery and security purposes. It is saved together with the dates and times the requests occurred into files stored on our servers called "logs" or "log files".
192204
193205Secondly, on your first visit to one of our sites or apps (and every so often again after your first visit), you will be presented with a 'cookie banner' asking you if you consent to the use of cookies and related technologies for our use of analytics. If you do, then several "cookies" (small text files) will be stored on your device containing identification numbers. Those numbers can then be read on your subsequent visits to recognise your device, and our analytics providers will use that information to provide us with various reports and metrics on how our sites are used. Google also uses the data that it gathers as a result for other purposes, which you can read about in [Google's Privacy Policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy).
194206
207If you wish to opt-out of the use of Google Analytics you can access and download the Opt-out browser add-on from here: [GA Opt-Out](https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout).
208
195209#### **3.3.2. Our legal basis**
196210
197211We process the personal data captured in our server log files on the basis of our legitimate interest in monitoring our systems, understanding how they are used, fixing problems with them, and for security monitoring and management purposes.
198212
199213We process the personal data captured by our analytics providers on the basis of your consent, which we ask for through a "cookie banner" which appears when you first visit our site. That message box will reappear from time to time in case you change your mind (typically every thirty days), and on your first visit after we make a significant change.
200214
201215#### **3.3.3. How long we keep it for**
202216
203217We keep the information in our server log files for up to 90 days, depending upon the log type and purpose.
204218
205Our analytics providers will keep the information they gather from our sites and apps in line with their own privacy notices, which you can access through our 'cookie banner' and Consent Management Platform (see the 'cog icon' at the bottom left of every webpage) .

395411## **7\. When you complete a survey**
396412
397413Sometimes we run surveys to help us to understand more about our readership or about public opinion generally. We use your answers to those surveys to produce anonymous statistics which we use to inform our editorial content and, to an extent, our advertising. For example, if a majority of survey respondents express a preference for one TV show over another, then we might write an entertainment piece based on that or factor it in when deciding which adverts appear where.
398414
415We may also run some surveys for which we utilise your declared responses to build into our profile about you. When we do so, this will be communicated in the associated text, and you will be asked to either consent to this use or will be given the option to 'object' via a tick box.
416
399417Occasionally, those surveys might ask you about things which the law considers to be especially sensitive, such as your voting intentions or your religious beliefs. Where that's the case, we'll ask clearly for your permission first, and we'll always provide a "prefer not to say" or similar option. We don't use that kind of information for advertising purposes.
400418
401419### **7.1. The data we collect and what we do with it**
402420
403We will collect your answers to the survey questions and use them to compile anonymous statistics along the lines of "35% of people preferred X over Y". Some surveys may also ask for your email address, for example if we are offering entry into a prize draw for completing it. [Go here]() to learn more about how we use your data for prize draws.

496514
497You can exercise your rights by contacting our group Data Protection Officer's team on [dataprotection@reachplc.com](mailto:dataprotection@reachplc.com). It is helpful to be as specific as possible about what you want us to do or what information you are looking for, because it enables us to respond to you more quickly.
515You can exercise your rights by contacting our group Data Protection Officer's team through the use of the relevant forms provided below. It is helpful to be as specific as possible about what you want us to do or what information you are looking for, because it enables us to respond to you more quickly.
498516
499517Depending on your request, we may ask you to prove your identity to us first, in order to make sure that someone isn't impersonating you. For example, if you contact us about your Reach account using a different email address, we may first require you to prove that you control the email address which you used to set up the account. If you want information about a subscription or some other paid service then we may ask you to provide the last four digits of the credit card used to pay for it.
500518
501519Most of your rights do have exceptions to them, designed to protect the rights of others or to ensure that we can comply with the law and operate our business in a prudent manner (for example, by keeping certain records). If we decline all or part of your request on the basis of one or more of those exceptions, we will tell you that we are doing so, and we will explain our reasons. We may also reject your request entirely if it is excessive or unfounded.
