Privacy Policy
This
Privacy Policy covers all of the sites on the Triple Ready platform, which is
created and owned by Triple Ready and Triple Pte Ltd ("Triple Ready",
"us" or "we"). The Privacy Policy governs your access to
and use of the services, websites, and applications offered by Triple Ready
(the "Services"). Please read this statement carefully before using
or proceeding to access Triple Ready. Your use of Triple Ready indicates that
you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and indicates your agreement
to abide by the Terms of Use of
Use in effect and to be subject to this policy.
1. Information Collection
Triple
Ready or third parties may collect information from our users at several
different points on Triple Ready.
- Mailing Lists
& Service Emails - Triple Ready may launch a mailing list, in order to
provide subscribers with relevant information - breaking news, or weekly
or daily round-ups, for example. In order to sign up to receive regular
emails from a site's mailing list, users must submit information including
a valid email address and demographic information such as location and
interests. This information may be used in aggregate form in order to
assess general user interest in various internal and third party products
and services. Your personal and contact information will not be passed to
any other organization. Users who choose to sign up for a mailing list may
receive regular emails from the site. Triple Ready may from time to time
track user email usage in a continued effort to improve our services. Most
of the time, these communications will consist of content from the site in
question, but we may occasionally send out an email from a third party
sponsor. Since editorial independence is critical to us, you can be sure that
we will always mark sponsored content as such, including in emails. If you
do not wish to receive emails from third party advertisers, please do not
sign up for the mailing list.
- Comment Service
and Account Information – In order to further enhance the user experience,
Triple Ready allows users to comment on some or all of Triple Ready sites,
enabling users to discuss and contribute to topics posted to those sites.
Users have the option of signing up for this service, and to do so must
either submit some valid information or set up an anonymous account. Triple
Ready uses this information to screen out users who leave comments
prohibited by our Terms of Use, to
make notifications to users when necessary, to pick out topics of interest
to commenters, and in certain circumstances to create a Triple Ready
"page" for each such user where such user's contributions are
collected. You may link your account to certain Third Party Services and
to do so, may be required to provide your login information for those
services. If you login via a Third Party Service, we will receive an
identifying token from that service, which will allow us to access some
information from your account on that service, so that we can, for
example, send you a message through that service. Triple Ready does not
receive or store passwords from your Third Party Service and will not pass
information provided when you register via a Third Party Service to any
other organization except in aggregate form.
- Cookies – Triple
Ready or third parties may use cookies, web beacons, HTML5 local storage,
java script, and other similar technologies to help us understand how you
use the Services and help us provide the Services and advertising to you.
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's computer tied to
information about the user. We may use both session ID cookies and
persistent cookies. For the session ID cookie, once the user closes the
browser, the cookie simply terminates. A persistent cookie is a small text
file stored on the user's hard drive for an extended period of time.
Persistent cookies can be removed by following the user's internet browser
help file directions. We store a cookie on each user's machine that
contains user specific information. You can configure your browser to
accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is
set. If you reject all cookies, you will not be able to use Services that
require you to "sign in," and you may not be able to take full
advantage of all offerings. However, not all Services require that you
accept cookies.
- Links – Triple
Ready contains links to other sites. Some of these links may be affiliate
marketing links encoded by third parties. Such third parties do not
collect any personally identifiable information unless you visit the
referenced site. Please be aware that Triple Ready is not responsible for
the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be
aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each
and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This
Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by Triple Ready.
- Embedded Content
— You should also be aware that some content delivered through Triple
Ready originates with another content provider. Such other content
providers may place "cookies" on your computer, or otherwise
gather information about you, including by asking you to provide
information through the content player itself. Again, it is up to you to
review the terms of use and privacy policy of the originators of such
content.
- Log Files – Like
most standard Website servers we use log files to log certain information
about how you use Triple Ready. We do not, however, collect IP addresses
or log IP address information.
- In each case, we
will collect and record the information you have provided. Other than
names and email addresses provided at your discretion, we don't generally
collect any "Personally Identifying Information" about our users
(such as social security number, telephone number, street address, drivers
license number, etc.). However, we may offer you the opportunity to submit
other information about yourself (such as gender, age, occupation,
hobbies, interests, zip code, etc.), which would then also be covered by
this Privacy Policy.
- We do not
respond to web browser "do not track" or other related
mechanisms at this time.
2. Advertising
- Ad Serving – The
ads appearing on this website are delivered to you by our web advertising
vendor Google's DoubleClick and/or by Triple Ready's own proprietary
advertising delivery software. In order to serve ads to you, we may use
information collected during your current search or visit to our websites
and information that we specifically acquire from third parties. Data that
we collect may be shared with some other third parties and is only used
for proprietary ad delivery, ad reporting, and contextual advertising.
These third parties do not have the right to use the information beyond
the scope necessary to support our advertising and are usually bound by
confidentiality requirements unless we disclose to you otherwise.
- Advertising and
Cookies – Some of our third party advertising partners may distribute
cookies to users in advertisements that are provided to us. Triple Ready
has no access to or control over these cookies once we have received the
advertisements..
- Affiliate
Advertising – We participate in affiliate marketing and allow affiliate
links to be encoded on some of our pages. This means that we may earn a
commission when you click on or make purchases via affiliate links and
affiliate partners may use cookies to understand your use of the Services.
- Triple Ready
does not provide any Personally Identifiable Information to third-party
advertising companies. Note, however, that if an advertiser asks Triple
Ready to show an advertisement to users with certain characteristics (for
example, women ages 18-24) or a segment of that group (for example, women
ages 18-24 who have viewed certain categories of content) and you respond
to that advertisement, the third-party advertising company may conclude
that you have the characteristics of the audience that they are trying to
reach.
- Opt-out – As
part of our commitment to transparency and your privacy, we provide the
following links to opt-out of cookies provided by both our first party ad
server and many third party advertising partners who may be engaging in
online behavioral advertising:
3. Business Transitions
In the
event Triple Ready goes through a business transition, such as a merger,
acquisition by another company, or sale of a portion of its assets, users'
personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets
transferred.
4. Contests, Sweepstakes, and Promotions
From
time to time you may be able to participate in contests, giveaways, sweepstakes
or other similar promotions we or third parties may sponsor. Participation may
require sharing your personal information with us or third parties sponsoring
the contest, giveaway, sweepstakes or promotion, and you should check the rules
to determine how your information will be used and shared with others. Triple
Ready may announce specific rules in connection with any such opportunity, but
regardless of whether specific rules are announced, all such opportunities will
be controlled by Triple Ready's "Contest Policies" set forth at Contest
Guidelines. Any rules announced at
the time of a contest will be in addition to the Contest Policies. In addition,
as a condition to receiving any awards or prizes, you may be required to
provide additional information, to sign a release, or to authorize the use of
certain information about you in marketing materials. If a third party
administers the contest, your participation may be subject to additional terms
and conditions and that third party's privacy policy. We are not responsible
for such third parties. You should carefully review the Contest Policies and
these third parties' terms and conditions before deciding whether to
participate in a contest publicized through the Service.
5. Legal Disclaimer
Though
we make every effort to preserve user privacy, Triple Ready may need to
disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith
belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial
proceeding, a court order or legal process served on Triple Ready or
affiliates. If we're going to turn over information related to you, we will use
commercially reasonable efforts to provide you with advance notice, unless we
are prohibited from doing so by law or court order.
6. Information Security
Triple
Ready has technical, administrative and physical safeguards in place to help
protect against unauthorized access to, use or disclosure of user information
we maintain. Under our security practices and policies, access to personally
identifiable information is authorized only for those who have a business need
for such access, and sensitive records are to be retained only as long as
necessary for business or legal needs and destroyed before disposal. Although
we work hard to protect personal information that we collect and store, no
program is one hundred percent secure and we cannot guarantee that our
safeguards will prevent every unauthorized attempt to access, use or disclose
personal information.
If you
become aware of a security issue, please email us at legal [at] gawker [dot]
com. We will work with you to address any problems.
7. Notification of Changes
Whenever
Triple Ready changes its privacy policy, we will post those changes to this
Privacy Policy page, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are
always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what
circumstances, if any, we disclose it. You are responsible for reviewing and
becoming familiar with any changes to this agreement.
