This Privacy Policy discloses the privacy practices for www.uspolitics.news (\u201cUSPN\u201d), and any other sites that display authorized links to this policy, including all mobile websites and applications (each an \u201cApplication\u201d) associated therewith, provided by USPN LLC (\u201cUSPN LLC\u201d, \u201cwe\u201d or \u201cus\u201d). For individuals in the EU using the Site or Application, USPN, located at 2802 N Carroll Ave., 4109, Dallas TX 75204, is considered to be the controller of your data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This Privacy Policy governs our collection of information from you, including through your use of the Sites and Applications. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully so that you understand our online privacy practices. By browsing a Site; installing, downloading or using an Application; and\/or providing your information to us in any other way, you understand that we will collect, use, and disclose your information in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy. Questions regarding privacy issues should be directed to us at privacy@uspolitics.news or at the address above.
\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Types of Information We Collect<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The information we gather falls into two categories: (1) information voluntarily supplied by users; and (2) information automatically gathered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Information You Provide to Us<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We collect and store information that you voluntarily supply to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you register as a USPN member, we collect information including your name, company, title, zip code, e-mail address, password, and information regarding tip sheets and author alerts you would like to receive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you request information about USPN subscriptions, we collect information including your name, e-mail address, title, job type, phone number, organization name, organization type, country, industry field of interest, interested products, and locations of interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you order a subscription to USPN or USPN PRO or pay your bill online, we will collect all information necessary to complete the transaction, including your name, credit card, and other related information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you sign up for our electronic newsletters, we collect your e-mail address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you respond to our surveys, we will collect all the information requested in the surveys, including any applicable contact information and demographic information such as your e-mail, first name, last name, location, place of employment, type of employment, industry, household income, race, age, and gender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We also collect information at other points in our Sites and Application which state information is being collected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You do not have a statutory obligation to provide us with your information. If you are a USPN PRO subscriber, you have a contractual obligation to provide us with information necessary to enter into a subscription agreement and provide the USPN PRO services to you. If you are not a USPN PRO subscriber, you do not have a contractual obligation to provide us with your information, but if you do not, we may not be able to provide you with services you have requested or you may be limited in your use of our services (e.g., if you do not provide us with your e-mail address, we will not be able to send you newsletters).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Information Automatically Collected<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We also may collect and store information that is generated automatically as you navigate through our Sites or Applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To make our Sites and Applications more useful to you, our servers (which may be hosted by a third-party service provider) may collect information from your computer or device, including but not limited to: If you allow our Application to have access to your location information and you have enabled location services on your phone, we collect your location information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n To help make the Sites and Applications more responsive to the needs of users, we employ a standard software feature, called a “cookie,” to assign each user a unique, random number that resides on a user’s computer or device. The cookie by itself does not personally identify the user; it merely identifies the computer or device with which the user accesses a Site or Application. Cookies help us track user trends and patterns. They also prevent you from having to re-enter your preferences on certain areas of a Site or Application where you have entered preference information before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When we post videos, third parties may use local shared objects, known as flash cookies to store your preferences for volume control or to personalize certain video features. Flash cookies are different from cookies because of the amount and type of data and how the data is stored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We also may use web beacons (also known as “pixel tags”) to access cookies and to count users who visit our Sites, use our Applications, or open our HTML-formatted e-mail messages. Pixel tags are tiny graphic images with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, that are used to track online movements of our users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user\u2019s computer hard drive, pixel tags are embedded invisibly in web pages and e-mail messages. We may collect information about your interactions with our e-mail messages, such as the links you click on and whether you open or forward a message, the date and time of these interactions and the device you use to read our e-mails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our website may also feature Nielsen proprietary measurement software, which will allow users to contribute to market research, such as Nielsen TV Ratings. To learn more about the information that Nielsen software may collect and your choices with regard to it, please see the Nielsen Digital Measurement Privacy Policy at http:\/\/www.nielsen.com\/digitalprivacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Analytics Services<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We use third-party analytics services (\u201cAnalytics Services\u201d), to help analyze how users use our Sites and Applications. The information generated by the cookies or other technologies about your use of our Sites and\/or Applications (the \u201cAnalytics Information\u201d) is transmitted to the Analytics Services. The Analytics Services use Analytics Information to compile reports on user activity. The Analytics Services may also transfer the Analytics Information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process Analytics Information on their behalf. Each Analytics Service\u2019s ability to use and share Analytics Information is restricted by such Analytics Service\u2019s terms of use and privacy policy. By using a Site or Application, you consent to the processing of data about you by Analytics Services in the manner and for the purposes set out above. For a full list of our Analytics Services, please contact us at feedback@uspolitics.news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We also collect anonymized, cookie-based demographics data from third parties to analyze the composition of our audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tailored Advertising<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Our Site also makes use of various third-party cookie data collection and linking services. USPN and third-party vendors, including Google, Vision Critical, Teads and others, may use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) together to (i) inform, optimize, and serve ads based on your past visits to our website and (ii) report how your ad impressions, uses of ad services, and interactions with the foregoing are related to your visits to the Site. In addition, we may use Google Analytics data, including but not limited to, geographic, demographics, and interest reporting information to recognize and understand user preferences, make improvements, and for other business purposes. You can learn more about how Google manages data in its ads products at www.google.com\/policies\/technologies\/partner-sites\/, through which you can learn how to opt out of Google Analytics for display advertising or customize Google display network ads, you can by visiting the Google Ads Settings page at www.google.com\/settings\/ads. To learn more about how Vision Critical uses data, visit https:\/\/www.visioncritical.com\/trust\/policies\/. To learn more about how Teads uses data, visit https:\/\/teads.tv\/privacy-policy\/.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We also may use third-party advertising companies to target and serve some of the advertisements that appear on our Sites and Applications, and these companies likewise may use their own cookies, web beacons and similar technologies to collect information about users of our Sites and Applications. These companies may use that information, to deliver advertisements on this Site, and possibly on other websites (if the third-party advertising company operates an advertising network), tailored to match the perceived interests of consumers. The collection and use of information by these companies is governed by the relevant third party’s privacy policy and is not covered by our privacy policy. If you would like more information about this practice, or if you would like information on how to opt out of these information collection practices, you may visit the Network Advertising Initiative\u2019s Consumer Opt-Out link, the Digital Advertising Alliance\u2019s Consumer Opt-Out link, or Your Online Choices to opt-out of receiving tailored advertising from companies that participate in those programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Notice Concerning Do Not Track<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Do Not Track (\u201cDNT\u201d) is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected on our website for third party purposes, and that is why we provide the variety of opt-out mechanisms listed above. However, we do not currently recognize or respond to browser-initiated DNT signals. To learn more about Do Not Track, you can do so here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use of Information<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We use the information we collect about you to: We may create aggregated or de-identified records based on information we collect about you (such as by removing your name). We reserve the right to use such data for any purpose and disclose such data to third parties in our sole discretion. For instance, when you respond to a survey, we may use, disclose and\/or publish the responses you provide to us. However, we will not publish or disclose your name in connection with your response without your prior consent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Legal Bases for Use of Your Information<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The laws in some jurisdictions require companies to tell you about the legal ground they rely on to use or disclose your personal data. To the extent those laws apply, our legal grounds for processing your personal data are as follows: Disclosure of Information<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Please also keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily make your information available for viewing by third parties online \u2014 for example on message boards, through e-mail or web logs, or in chat areas \u2014 that information can be seen, collected and used by others besides USPN LLC. We cannot control who reads your postings or what other users may do with the information that you voluntarily post, so it is very important that you do not put data such as private contact information which you do not want to make available to the public in your posts. Once you have posted information publicly, while you may still be able to edit and delete it on our Site or Application, you will not be able to edit or delete such information cached, collected, and stored elsewhere by others (e.g., search engines).<\/p>\n\n\n\n We may share your information with other third-party service providers to: provide you with the services that we offer you through our Sites and Applications; process your payments; conduct quality assurance testing; facilitate creation of accounts; provide technical support; and\/or provide other services to USPN LLC and our Affiliates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We may share some or all of your information with our parent company, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under a common control (\u201cAffiliates\u201d), in which case we will require our Affiliates to honor this Privacy Policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We may share some or all of your information in connection with or during negotiation of any merger, financing, acquisition or dissolution transaction or proceeding involving sale, transfer, divestiture, or disclosure of all or a portion of our business or assets. In the event of an insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership, information may also be transferred as a business asset. If another company acquires our company, business, or assets, that company will possess the information collected by us and will assume the rights and obligations regarding your information as described in this Privacy Policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some features of our Sites or Applications may enable you to post content to social networking services (\u201cSNSs\u201d). If you choose to do this, we will provide information to such SNSs in accordance with your elections. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for your use of those websites and that it is your responsibility to review the terms of use and privacy policy of the third party provider of such SNSs. We will not be responsible or liable for: (i) the availability or accuracy of such SNSs; (ii) the content, products or services on or availability of such SNSs; or (iii) your use of any such SNSs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Regardless of any choices you make regarding your information (as described below), we may disclose information if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary (a) in connection with any legal investigation; (b) to comply with relevant laws or to respond to subpoenas or warrants served on USPN LLC; (c) to protect or defend the rights or property of USPN LLC or users of our Sites or Applications; and\/or (d) to investigate or assist in preventing any violation or potential violation of the law, this Privacy Policy, or our Terms of Service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Security<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We have implemented administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, and\/or alteration of your information. These safeguards vary based on the sensitivity of the information that we collect and store. However, we cannot and do not guarantee that these measures will prevent every unauthorized attempt to access, use, or disclose your information since despite our efforts, no Internet and\/or other electronic transmissions can be completely secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Data Retention<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We will hold your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes set forth in this Privacy Policy or as long as we are legally required or permitted to do so. Information may persist in copies made for backup and business continuity purposes for additional time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Transfers of Information<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Our Sites and Applications are operated in the United States. If you are located outside the United States, please be advised that any information you provide through our Sites and Applications will be transferred to the United States, which may not have a similar standard of for data protection as the laws of your jurisdiction for processing, hosting, and storage by us or our service providers. Where you are accessing Services from a European Economic Area (\u201cEEA\u201d) member state, we will take steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your information is treated securely in accordance with this privacy policy always and at least to the standards required by Applicable Law in the jurisdiction of access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To the extent that USPN\u2019s affiliates in the EEA make such transfers, they will rely on the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield or Standard Contractual Clauses. Individuals whose personal data is transferred pursuant to the Standard Contractual Clauses may request a copy of the clauses by contacting us as described below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Third-Party Sites<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Our Sites and Applications may include links to third party websites and applications whose privacy policies we do not control. Once you leave our Sites or Applications, any information you provide at another site or application will be governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the site you are visiting or application you are using. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site or application that you use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note that USPN.eu is subject to a different privacy policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Children’s Privacy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Sites and Applications are not directed to children under the age of thirteen and we do NOT knowingly collect personal information, as that term is defined in the Children\u2019s Online Privacy Protection Act (\u201cCOPPA\u201d) from children under the age of thirteen. If we discover that a child under 13 has submitted personal information to us, we will attempt to delete the information as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We do not knowingly process data of EU residents under the age of 16 without parental consent. If we become aware that we have collected data from an EU resident under the age of 16 without parental consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete it as soon as possible.

When we delete any information, it will be deleted from our active database, but may remain in our archives. We may also retain your information for fraud prevention or similar purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rights for Individuals in the EEA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Individuals in the EEA and other jurisdictions have certain legal rights to obtain confirmation of whether we hold personal data about them, to access personal data we hold about them, and to obtain its correction, update, amendment, or deletion in appropriate circumstances.
