1. SCOPE AND APPLICATION

Fox Cable Network Services (“Fox” or “we”) wants you to be familiar with how we collect, use and disclose information from and about you. This Privacy Policy describes our practices in connection with information collected through services that link to this privacy policy, such as talent recruiting websites and mobile sites (collectively, the “Fox Services”). California residents, please see the California Consumer Privacy Act Notice in Section 8 below. By using Fox Services, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy. Information about our affiliated companies (“Fox Affiliates”) is available at www.FoxCorporation.com.

As set forth in our Terms of Use (available at https://tech.fox.com/terms-of-use/), the Fox Services are for a general audience, are not targeted to children, and do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age.

This Privacy Policy applies to all users, including both those who use the Fox Services without being registered with or subscribing to a Fox Service and those who have registered with or subscribed to a Fox Service. This Privacy Policy applies to Fox’s collection and use of your personal information (i.e., information that identifies a specific person, such as full name or email address). It also describes generally Fox practices for handling non-personal information (for example, interests, demographics and services usage).

2. COLLECTION OF INFORMATION

Depending on your interactions with us, Fox and our service providers may collect the following information from and about you:

Registration Information is the information you submit to register for or subscribe to a Fox Service, for example, to create an account, post comments, receive a newsletter or request other information. Registration Information may include, for example, name, email address, gender, zip code, and birthday.

Activity Information. When you access and interact with the Fox Services, Fox and its service providers may collect certain information about those visits. For example, in order to permit your connection to the Fox Services, our servers receive and record information about your computer, device, and browser, including potentially your IP address, browser type, and other software or hardware information. If you access the Fox Services from a mobile or other device, we may collect a unique device identifier assigned to that device, geolocation data (including your precise location), or other transactional information for that device.

Cookies and other tracking technologies (such as browser cookies, pixels, beacons, local storage, and other mechanisms) use various approaches to collect and store data. Some of these technologies store data in the browser or on your device. Other technologies may use network-related or other information to recognize your device (e.g., IP address). Fox’s websites and other services use these technologies, for example, when you first request a web page and data is then stored on your computer or other device so the website can access information when you make subsequent requests for pages from that service. These technologies may also be used to collect and store information about your usage of the Fox Services, such as pages you have visited, search history, and the video and other content you have viewed.

Other parties that support the Fox Services by providing services, such as allowing you to share content or tracking aggregate Fox Services usage statistics, may also use these technologies to collect similar information when you use the Fox Services or other parties’ services.

Your browser may be initially set to accept cookies, but you can change your settings to notify you when a cookie is being set or updated, and to block cookies altogether. Please consult the "Help" section of your browser for more information, including on how to clear data from local storage and, depending on your browser, how to turn off other data collection by the browser. For more information about Google Analytics, please review the site “How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services,” located at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/. To opt out of Google Analytics specifically, please go to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Please note that by blocking any or all cookies you may not have access to certain features, content or personalization available through the Fox Services.

Information from Other Sources. We may supplement the information we collect with information from other sources, such as publicly available information about your online and offline activity from social media services, commercially available sources, and information from our Fox Affiliates or business partners.

Depending on your interactions with us, Fox may not have collected information from you for each of the categories above.

“Do Not Track.” At this time we do not respond to the ”Do Not Track” signal, as we await the work of interested stakeholders and others to develop standards for how the “Do Not Track” signal should be interpreted.

3. USE AND DISCLOSURE

We may use and disclose some or all of the information we collect from and about you for the following purposes:

To provide the Fox Services. We use information we collect from and about you to provide the Fox Services. This may include:

  • to measure, maintain and improve those Fox Services and features and to develop new products and services, including conducting research and quality and safety assurance measures;
  • to perform identity verification;
  • to allow you to comment on content, and participate in online games, contests, other promotions, or rewards programs;
  • to provide you with customer support and to respond to inquiries. This may include the use of chatbots. Please note that your inquiries and responses to these chatbots may be transcribed and retained.
  • to make inferences and predictions about your potential areas of interest in order to provide you with content that is more interesting, personalized, and relevant to you;
  • to maintain our facilities and infrastructure;
  • to comply with internal policies, including accounting, audit, and other internal functions; and
  • to maintain records, conduct risk and security controls, and monitoring.

To allow service providers to assist us in providing and managing the Fox Services. Information we collect from and about you may be made available to certain service providers, such as contractors, chatbot providers, analytics and other measurement companies, agents, or sponsors, who help us analyze and understand your use of the Fox Services, and manage and/or provide recruiting or other Fox Services.

To provide co-branded services and features. We may offer co-branded services or features, such as contests, sweepstakes, or other promotions together with other companies (“Co-Branded Services”). These Co-Branded Services may be hosted on Fox Services or on that other party’s service. By virtue of these relationships, we may share the information you submit in connection with the Co-Branded Service with that party. That other party’s use of your information will be governed by its privacy policy.

To contact you. Fox may periodically send promotional materials or notifications related to the Fox Services. If you want to stop receiving promotional materials from a Fox Service, you can email us at ContactTech@fox.com or follow the unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of each email. There are certain service notification and other non-promotional emails that you may not opt-out of, such as notifications of changes to the Fox Services or policies.

To share with our Fox Affiliates. Fox may share information we collect from and about you as described in this Privacy Policy with Fox Affiliates for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. A link to a website that lists Fox Affiliates can be found at the beginning of this policy. Users who visit Fox Affiliates’ services should still refer to their separate privacy policies, which may differ in some respects from this Privacy Policy.

To share with business partners. Fox may share information we collect from and about you as described in this Privacy Policy with business partners to permit them to send you marketing communications consistent with your choices.

To protect the rights of Fox and others. There may be instances when Fox may use or disclose information we collect from and about you as described in this Privacy Policy, including situations where Fox has a good faith belief that such use or disclosure is necessary in order to: (i) protect, enforce, or defend the legal rights, privacy, safety, or property of Fox, our Fox Affiliates, or our or their employees, agents and contractors (including enforcement of our agreements and our terms of use); (ii) protect the safety, privacy, and security of users of the Fox Services or members of the public; (iii) protect against fraud or for risk management purposes; (iv) comply with the law or legal process; or (v) respond to requests from public and government authorities.

To complete a merger or sale of assets or other corporate transaction. If Fox sells all or part of its business or makes a sale or transfer of its assets or is otherwise involved in an acquisition, reorganization, merger or transfer of all or a part of its business, or other corporate transaction (including in connection with a bankruptcy or similar proceedings), Fox may transfer or disclose information we collect from and about you as described in this Privacy Policy to the party or parties involved in the transaction as part of that transaction.

Depending on your interactions with us, Fox may not have collected, used or disclosed information from you in each of the categories above, and to the extent that Fox has disclosed information from or about you, it may not include all of the information that we collect from and about you as described in this Privacy Policy.

Please note that when the information collected from or about you does not identify you as a specific person, we may use that information for any purpose or share it with other parties, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

4. SECURITY

Fox uses commercially reasonable administrative, technical, personnel, and physical measures designed to safeguard information in its possession against loss, theft, and unauthorized use, disclosure, or modification. However, no one can guarantee the complete safety of your information.

5. USER ACCESS AND CONTROL

If you would like to access, review, correct, update, suppress, delete, or otherwise limit our use of your personal information you have previously provided directly to us, you may contact us as outlined in Section 7. In your request, please include your email address, name, address, and telephone number and specify clearly what information you would like to access, change, update, suppress or delete. We will try to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable and consistent with applicable law.

Please note that subject to applicable law, in some cases we may not comply with your request where we may require your information in order to comply with applicable law, or to protect, enforce or defend our rights or employee rights, or those of a Fox Affiliate.

If you are a resident of California, please see the section entitled “California Consumer Privacy Act Notice,” below, for more information about the rights you have under California law.

If you are a California resident, you may request that we not share your personal information on a going-forward basis with Fox Affiliates or unaffiliated third parties for their direct marketing purposes by emailing us at ContactTech@fox.com with "Disclosure Opt-out" in the subject line and your full name, email address, postal address and the specific Fox Service you have subscribed to in the body of the email. We will try to comply with your request(s) as soon as reasonably practicable and consistent with applicable law.

Location of Data. The Fox Services are hosted in and managed from the United States. If you are a user located outside the United States, you understand and consent to having any personal information processed in the United States or in any other country in which we have facilities or in which we engage service providers.

It may not always be possible to completely remove or delete all of your information due to technical constraints, or contractual, financial, or legal requirements.
