Introduction

Your privacy is important to us. We understand that you are aware of and care about your own personal privacy interests, and we take that seriously. This Privacy Notice sets forth your privacy rights and applies to personal data we may collect solely through your use of the RhymeZone.com service. This Privacy Notice does not govern our collection of personal information through any means other than through RhymeZone.com.

Your decision to use RhymeZone.com and provide your personal data is voluntary. We indicate on our online, mobile, and other registration forms what types of personal data are requested. You may choose not to submit requested information online or may choose to restrict the use of cookies (see 'Your Rights & Choices; Opt-Out' below for more information), but that may limit the services we are able to provide to you.

We recognize that information privacy is an ongoing responsibility, and so we will from time to time update this Privacy Notice as we undertake new personal data processing practices or adopt new privacy policies. If you have concerns, please contact our data protection officer at dpo@RhymeZone.com.

Information Collected Automatically & Other Information; Cookie Policy

Like other commercial websites, the RhymeZone.com service and its authorized partners use cookies (small files transferred from a website to its visitors' hard drives or browsers for record-keeping purposes), including essential, functional and analytical cookies, and other similar information-gathering technologies throughout the RhymeZone.com service to collect certain information automatically and store it in log files for a variety of legitimate business interests and purposes. This information may include (but is not limited to) internet protocol (IP) addresses, mobile device identifiers, the region or general location where your computer or device is accessing the internet, browser type, operating system and other usage information about your use of the RhymeZone.com service, including a history of the pages you view.

Web beacons, tags, and scripts may be used on the RhymeZone.com service or in email or other electronic communications we send to you. These assist us in delivering cookies, counting visits to the RhymeZone.com service, understanding usage and campaign effectiveness and determining whether an email has been opened and acted upon. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by our third-party service providers on an individual and aggregated basis.

RhymeZone.com and its authorized partners use cookies, beacons, and other similar technologies on the RhymeZone.com service for legitimate business interests that enable us to permit you to navigate, use, and access secure areas of the RhymeZone.com service. We also use these technologies for statistical purposes and to analyze and improve the use of the RhymeZone.com service and prepare aggregated usage reports.

As described below, we use these technologies for legitimate business purposes to provide standard advertising controls, determine User response to advertisements and promotions, and deliver targeted advertisements that we or our partners believe will be of most interest to you.

We may also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our servers and to administer our website, analyze trends, track visitor movements, and gather broad demographic information that assists us in identifying visitor preferences.

We have a legitimate interest in understanding how our users, customers, and potential customers use the RhymeZone.com service. Among other things, this assists us in providing more relevant products and services. Please refer to 'Your Rights & Choices; Opt-Out' below for more information.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of the RhymeZone.com service. For more information about cookies, please visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org/.

• Analytics & usage data

For our legitimate business interests, we may process your personal information for analytic purposes on the RhymeZone.com service as described in this section.

Together with Google Analytics, we use cookies and software logs to monitor the use of the RhymeZone.com service and to gather non-personal information about visitors to RhymeZone.com. These monitoring systems allow us to track general information about our visitors, such as the type of browsers (for example, Firefox or Internet Explorer), the operating systems (for instance, Windows or Macintosh), or the Internet providers (for instance, Comcast) they use. This information is used for statistical and market research purposes to tailor content to usage patterns and to provide services requested by our customers.

We also have implemented certain Google Analytics Advertiser features. These tools use cookies to collect and store standard Internet logs and visitor information on our behalf, including information about what pages you visit, how long you are on RhymeZone.com, how you got here, and what you click on during your visit. This Google Analytics data is not tied to personal information, so this information cannot be used to identify who you are. We use the data provided by Google Analytics to develop our services and content around our User demographics, interests, and behavior on our RhymeZone.com service. You can opt-out of this Google Analytics Advertiser feature using the Ads Settings located at https://www.google.com/settings/ads. In addition, you can use the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on to disable tracking by Google Analytics. To delete these cookies, please see your browser's privacy settings or follow the above instructions.

We also may receive other data about your use of our RhymeZone.com service from other sources. This information may include (but is not limited to) information about your activities across unrelated websites and mobile applications, information about the possible relationships between different browsers and devices and information that we receive from our third-party service providers. We may add this information to the information to the information we have already collected through our RhymeZone.com service.

• Advertising on RhymeZone.com

This Site is affiliated with CMI Marketing, Inc., d/b/a Raptive (“Raptive”) for the purposes of placing advertising on the Site, and Raptive will collect and use certain data for advertising purposes. To learn more about Raptive's data usage, click here

The RhymeZone.com service may also rely on third-party service providers to do things like: take user-level information, anonymize it through hashing (a hashed email address might look something like this: e820bb4aba5ad74c5a6ff1aca16641f6) and match it against other anonymized, people-based identifiers - doing this helps us serve you personalized, relevant advertisements. Specifically, when you use our ad supported RhymeZone.com service, we may share information that we may collect from you, including your email (in hashed form), IP address or information about your browser or operating system, with our third-party service provider, LiveRamp Inc. and its group companies ('LiveRamp'). LiveRamp may use our first party cookie on your browser to match your shared information to their marketing databases in order to provide back a pseudonymous privacy-centric identifier for our use in real time bidding in digital advertising. These third parties may in turn link further demographic or interest-based information to your browser. You have the choice to opt out of the use of your data by third-party service providers for this purpose at any time. Please find more information about opting out below.

Please note that limiting third-party cookies via your browser controls does not prevent our first-party cookies from being set in this way. Also, please know, if you opt-out of interest-based advertising you will continue to receive ads on our free, ad-supported RhymeZone.com service, but not behaviorally targeted ads. Also, if you opt out of RhymeZone.com's practices, you may continue to receive interest-based advertising through other companies. If you erase your browser's cookies, you may need to perform this process again.

• Anonymous data

Anonymous aggregated data may be provided to other companies we do business with for statistical purposes. For example, we may report to advertisers that a certain percentage of our site's visitors are adults between the ages of 25 and 35.

• Device identifiers

For our legitimate business interests, we process your device identifiers as described in this section.

When you use a mobile device like a tablet or cell phone to access our RhymeZone.com service, we may access and monitor one or more “device identifiers.” Device identifiers are small data files associated with your mobile device that uniquely identify your mobile device. A device identifier may deliver information to us or a third-party partner about how you browse and use the services and may help us or others provide reports or personalized ads. Some features of the services may not function properly if use or availability of device identifiers is impaired or disabled.

• Third-party activities

For our legitimate business interests, and with your consent where this is required, we may process data collected by us for advertising, including interest-based advertising, as described in this section.

As described above, in order to monetize our free, ad-supported RhymeZone.com service, we work with third-party advertisers and advertising networks that use cookies and other similar technologies to target ads served to our free, ad-supported RhymeZone.com service. Our Privacy Notice does not cover the use of data that you provide directly to advertisers or third-party partners; that usage is governed by the advertiser's or third-party partner's privacy policy.

What does it mean to “serve ads”? When you visit a website, your Internet browser transmits a “request” to the computer that hosts the website (the “host server”) requesting that server to send you (or “serve”) the Web page that you are seeking. Most Web pages contain components that are pulled from different sources, for example, a Web page at a news site may get its weather section from one provider, its sports results from a different source, and advertisements from other servers. Our Web pages contain coding that directs your browser to fill the ad spaces on the Web pages with content served by advertisers and networks of advertisers to whom we have sold the ad spaces. The advertisers and networks use cookies and beacons to help manage ad delivery and frequency and to identify audience segment(s) for customized advertising (“targeting”). These cookies are used to identify your IP address, so that when you visit another website using the same advertising network, the network will recognize the cookie as one of its own, read the information on the cookie (the record of which sites in the network you have visited) and serve you an ad that you might be interested in, based on your past visits to other sites in the network. Advertising targeted based on past Web surfing is known as “behavioral advertising.”

RhymeZone.com does not provide any personal information to third-party advertisers about visitors to the RhymeZone.com service. Our Privacy Notice does not cover the use of information that may have been collected from you by third parties on other sites. If you would like to learn more about behavioral advertising or to opt-out of having this information used by companies that are part of the Network Advertising Initiative to deliver targeted ads, please visit http://www.networkadvertising.org. Many of the same companies are members of the Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. You can learn more and opt-out of receiving targeted ads from them at http://www.aboutads.info/choices.

Some advertising networks require that we specifically list their opt-out links below. When you opt-out of a network, you may receive a “opt-out” cookie so that the network will know not to assign you new cookies in the future. You will continue to receive ads from that network, but not behaviorally targeted ads. If you erase your browser's cookies, you may need to perform this process again.

Your Rights & Choices; Opt-Out Choices

We participate in the IAB Transparency & Consent Framework and comply with its Specifications and Policies. Our Consent Management Platform (CMP) is LiveRamp with the CMP identification number 3.

Raptive's Advertising Privacy Statement more fully describes the cookies, beacons and other similar technology used on the RhymeZone.com service and provides information on when and how Users can accept or reject them.

• Digital Advertising Alliance
• Digital Advertising Alliance Canada

Please remember, if you opt out of interest-based advertising you will continue to receive ads on our free, ad-supported RhymeZone.com service, but not behaviorally targeted ads. Also, if you opt out of RhymeZone.com's practices, you may continue to receive interest-based advertising through other companies.

How we respond to “Do Not Track” signals

When you visit a website in any browser, you automatically share information with that website, such as your IP address, and other standard PC information. If the website contains content provided by a third-party website (for example a web measurement tools such as a web beacon or scripts), some information about you may be automatically sent to the content provider. This type of arrangement has several benefits, such as allowing you to access third-party content from the RhymeZone.com service conveniently. Some internet browsers or other tools include “Do Not Track” (DNT) features that, when turned on, send a signal to websites you visit indicating you do not wish to be tracked across websites over time. However, since no technology standard for DNT signals has been developed or adopted to date, the RhymeZone.com service does not currently respond to DNT signals.

Security of Your Information

Any personally identifiable information collected through this site is stored on limited-access servers. We will maintain safeguards to protect these servers and the information they store. In addition, to help protect the privacy of data and personally identifiable information you transmit through use of our RhymeZone.com service, we maintain physical, technical and administrative safeguards. We update and test our security technology on an ongoing basis. We strive to restrict access to your personal data to those employees who need to know that information to provide benefits or services to you.

Data Storage and Retention

Your personal data is stored by us in the AWS Cloud - U.S. (eastern) and Singapore regions. We retain your information for the duration of your relationship with us and as long as necessary to permit us to use it for the legitimate business purposes that we have communicated to you and comply with applicable law or regulations. For more information on where and how long your personal data is stored, and for more information on your rights of erasure and portability, please contact RhymeZone.com's data protection officer at dpo@RhymeZone.com.

Consent to Processing and Transfer of Information about You

RhymeZone.com's headquarters are in the United States. Information we collect from you will be processed in the United States and may be stored, transferred to, and processed in any country where we have facilities or in which we engage service providers. These countries may be outside your country of residence, including the United States, and may have different data protection laws than your country.

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), RhymeZone.com collects and transfers personal data out of the EEA only: with your consent; to perform a contract with you; or to fulfill a compelling legitimate interest of RhymeZone.com in a manner that does not outweigh your rights and freedoms. RhymeZone.com endeavors to apply suitable safeguards to protect the privacy and security of your personal data and to use it only consistent with your relationship with us and the practices described in this Privacy Notice.

Sharing Personal Information

RhymeZone.com may disclose your personal information to a third-party for a business purpose or sell your personal information, subject to your right to opt-out of those sales (see 'Sales of Personal Information' below). When we disclose personal information for a business purpose, we enter into a contract that describes the purpose and requires the recipient to both keep that personal information confidential and not use it for any purpose except performing the contract.

Sales of Personal Information

In the preceding twelve (12) months, RhymeZone.com has not sold any of the categories of personal information collected through the RhymeZone.com service.

As of the Effective Date of this Privacy Notice, the Company and our advertising partners will collect the personal information identified in the table above (such as the cookies stored on your browser, the advertising identifier on your mobile device, or the IP address of your device) when you visit the RhymeZone.com or open our emails. We, and our partners, will use this information to tailor and deliver ads to you on the RhymeZone.com service, or to help tailor ads to you when you visit others' sites (or use others' apps). To tailor ads that may be more relevant to you, we and/or our partners may share the information we collect with third parties.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

7. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
8. Comply with a legal obligation.
9. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by emailing us at dpo@RhymeZone.com

Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

• Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
• Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us.

We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

Response Timing and Format

We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing in accordance with CCPA requirements.

If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request's receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights

If you are 16 years of age or older, you have the right to direct us to not sell your personal information at any time (the “right to opt-out”). We do not sell the personal information of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years of age, unless we receive affirmative authorization (the “right to opt-in”) from either the consumer who is between 13 and 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a consumer less than 13 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to personal information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time.

To exercise the right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) may submit a request to us by emailing dpo@RhymeZone.com.

Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve (12) months before asking you to reauthorize personal information sales. However, you may change your mind and opt back in to personal information sales at any time by clearing cookies from your browser or emailing dpo@RhymeZone.com.

You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your opt-out rights. We will only use personal information provided in an opt-out request to review and comply with the request.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:

• Deny you goods or services.
• Charge you different prices or rates for like-goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
• Provide you with a different level or quality of like-goods or services.
• Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for like-goods or services or a different level or quality of like-goods or services.

However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your Personal Information's value and contain written terms that describe the program's material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt in consent, which you may revoke at any time. We currently provide the following financial incentives:
