How does Endeavor Business Media secure and store your information?

We use reasonable precautions, including appropriate technical, administrative, and physical procedures, to try to protect collected Personal data from loss, misuse, or unauthorized disclosure or alteration.

Our Site uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) to protect personal data. By using a browser that supports security functions, when you access to our Websites and enter Personal data, including your name and e-mail address, this information is transferred to our server and the information is automatically encrypted when transmitted and received by servers. Therefore, if the transmitted data is intercepted by a third party, there is no need to worry about the content being stolen.

If you use a browser that does not support TLS, you may not be able to access our Website or input information.

Due to the design of the Internet and other factors outside our control, we cannot guarantee that communications between you and our servers will be free from unauthorized access by third parties.

Any information you provide may be stored and maintained in an Endeavor Business Media database, either housed at Endeavor Business Media or with a third party service provider. In the case of a sale, change of ownership or merger involving Endeavor Business Media or any parent, subsidiary or affiliated company, your information may be transferred to a third party.

In some cases, you may use passwords to access our Services and customize your information, preferences and experience with our Services. We recommend that you do not share your password(s) with anyone, and notify us promptly if you believe your password security has been breached. Endeavor Business Media will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited e-mail. Also, if you are using a computer that others have access to, such as one in a computer lab, Internet cafe or public library, always remember to log out and close your browser window when leaving any of our Websites.

In addition, any personally identifiable information or sensitive data that you choose to disclose through any discussion boards or other public online forums hosted on the Website, such information may be collected and used by others. We recommend caution when giving out personal information to others in these public online forums. When you provide information on these forums, you do so at your own risk. Endeavor Business Media does not take any steps to protect the privacy of information you volunteer about yourself in public forums or other publicly accessible sections of our Websites. The information you share may be viewed by any other user of the Website.

Third Party Content and Links

Our Services may embed content from, or link to, third-party websites and services, including social media platforms, that are outside of our control. We are not responsible for their practices and this Privacy Notice does not govern those third parties’ content, services, or use of your information.

Many of our Websites contain links to Websites owned and operated by unaffiliated third parties. These links are provided as a service to you, and do not constitute Endeavor Business Media's endorsement or support of those third parties or their Websites. Each third party Website has its own information collection and use practices, and we advise you to review their policies.

Endeavor Business Media is not responsible or liable for third party privacy practices or the content of third party sites. We are not responsible or liable for any breach of security or for the actions of these parties.

What options do you have about how Endeavor Business Media uses or shares your information?

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal data you provide us. To exercise control over your information, we have provided you with the following mechanisms:

If you no longer wish for us to share your mailing address or other contact information with our sponsors or other third parties, you may adjust your account preferences or you can send us an e-mail at dpo@endeavorb2b.com. For us to be able to locate your record, your e-mail must include your name, mailing address, e-mail address, and must identify the Endeavor Business Media product, event, or service for which you are registered. We will strive to process your request within 10 business days, and thereafter we will no longer share your contact information with third parties. Please note that we will not be able to stop third parties from sending you information about their products or services if your information was shared with them before we received your request.

Regarding e-mail specifically, you have the opportunity to elect to stop receiving advertising messages from Endeavor Business Media about our products or services each time you receive such a communication from us. To unsubscribe from such advertising e-mail messages, please follow the directions included in that e-mail message. We will strive to process your request within 10 business days. Please note that during that time, you may continue to receive e-mail messages from Endeavor Business Media about its products or services or those of our affiliates or customers.

If you receive broadcast e-mail messages that we may send about third party manufacturers or service providers in whose products or services we believe you may be interested and no longer wish to receive such messages, you can do so by following the directions included in the e-mail message you receive. If you have further questions regarding your options with respect to your account information, please contact us at the e-mail or mailing address included at the beginning of this Privacy Notice.

Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control Signals

Your browser may offer you a “Do Not Track” option, which allows you to signal to operators of Websites and web applications and services (including behavioral advertising services) that you do not wish such operators to track certain of your online activities over time and/or across different Websites. Our Websites support the Universal Opt-Out Mechanism (UOOM) known as Global Privacy Control (GPC) requests where required by applicable law, which means that depending on your location, we may collect information about your online activity while you are using our Websites.

You may correct or amend information that is inaccurate by reviewing and updating your account preferences or by contacting us by email at DPO@Endeavorb2b.com or by mail at Endeavor Business Media, Attention: Data Privacy Officer, 30 Burton Hills Blvd, Suite 185, Nashville, TN 37215.

Collection and Use of Information from Children

Our Services are not intended for children under 16 years of age. No one under age 16 may provide any personal information to or on the Website. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you are under 16, do not use or provide any information on this Website or on or through any of its features. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 16 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 16, please send an email to: DPO@Endeavorb2b.com.

Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights with respect to your information.

Residents of certain U.S. states that have enacted individual data privacy laws (including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Virginia and such others as may be enacted from time to time), in addition to residents of the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, may be able to request:

access to and/or a copy of certain personal information we hold about you;
correction of inaccurate information that we have about you;
deletion of certain personal information we have collected from you; and/or
provide information about financial incentives that we offer to you, if any.

California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Texas, Utah, and Virginia residents also have certain “opt out” rights described below. Applicable law may further provide you with the right to not be discriminated against for exercising your rights.

Please note: Your rights and our responses will vary based on your state or country of residency. You may be located in a jurisdiction where we are not obligated, or are unable, to fulfill a request. In such a case, your request may not be fulfilled.

If you would like information regarding your rights or would like to make a request (or if you are an authorized agent acting in accordance with applicable law), please email us at DPO@Endeavorb2b.com.

We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity and requests, including by verifying your account information, residency or the email address you provide. If you are an authorized agent submitting a request on behalf of another individual, we may require proof of your written authorization before processing the request.

Certain information may be exempt from such requests under applicable law such as information we retain for legal compliance and to secure our Services. We may need certain information in order to provide the Services to you; if you ask us to delete it, you may no longer be able to use the Services.

Residents of certain states may appeal the denial of a request by emailing us at DPO@Endeavorb2b.com.

Depending on your state of residence, you may have the right to opt out of certain processing of your personal information for cross-contextual targeted advertising under applicable law. Cross-contextual targeted advertising is when a business display ads to you based on your personal information that is collected across different businesses. We do not participate in this type of processing. Even if you opt out of this type of processing, you will still see advertising on our Websites that may be personalized for you based only on the data that the Endeavor Business Media has collected about you.

Analytics. Some analytics providers we partner with may provide specific opt-out mechanisms. For example, you may opt out of having Google Analytics use your information for analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. You can visit our Cookie Notice for additional information on how to opt out of certain analytics providers.

California Consumers’ Privacy Rights

This section (“California Statement”) explains rights that certain natural persons residing in the State of California (each, a “consumer”) may have under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA), as amended and expanded by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CPRA), and such rules and regulations as may be adopted from time to time implementing and interpreting such Acts (CCPA and CPRA are collectively referred to as “CCPA”). When we use the term “personal information” in this California Statement, we are using that term as CCPA defines it, which CCPA generally defines “personal information” to mean information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household. However, personal information does not include publicly available, deidentified, or aggregate consumer information (which are all defined in CCPA).

Where we act as a “business” under CCPA (meaning we determine the manner and reasons for why we process your personal information), we may be required to disclose additional information regarding the categories of personal information we collect, the sources where we obtain that information, the purposes for why we collect that information, who we share that information with, as well as whether we sell that personal information – all of which depends on the specific service being provided.

Categories of Personal Information we collect

Depending on the nature of your relationship with us (e.g., subscriber, attendee, media partner, research partner, service provider or Endeavor employee), we may collect the following categories of Personal Information about you, including:

Identifiers such as name, postal address, email address, account name, or telephone number;
Information that identifies, relates to or is capable of being associated with a individual, such as financial information;
Characteristics of protected classifications under California or federal law such as race, sex/gender or marital status;
Commercial information such as subscription history;
Internet or other electronic network activity information such as browsing history;
Geolocation data, available through your device, if enabled;
Audio, electronic, or similar information;
Professional or employment-related information;
Education information;
Other personal information, as described to you in this Privacy Notice, or otherwise at the point of collection; and
Inferences drawn from any of the information identified above, including about your preferences.

Depending on your relationship with us, we may have collected each of the above categories of Personal Information about you. In addition, we may have shared one or more of these categories of Personal Information with third parties during the preceding 12 months for the business purposes described in this Privacy Notice. For each of these categories of Personal Information, please refer to the “When is personally identifiable information collected? How is your information used?” sections above for more detailed information regarding why we collect personal information and the categories of third parties with whom we may share personal information.

California residents can also request information about the categories of personal information we collect, disclose or sell or share about you; the categories of sources of such information; the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing your personal information; and the categories of third parties to whom we disclose personal information. Such information is also set forth in this Privacy Notice.

California residents also have the right to request that we delete your information. To make a request, you can contact us toll free at +1 (800) 547-7377 and ask for the Data Privacy Officer or by email to our Data Privacy Officer at DPO@Endeavorb2b.com or in writing to Endeavor Business Media, Attention: Data Privacy Officer, 30 Burton Hills Blvd, Suite 185, Nashville, TN 37215. Provide us enough information to verify your identify. We will use information you provide to us to verify your request. If we cannot initially verify your identity, we may request additional information to complete the verification process, such as, for example, a copy of your driver’s license and/or a recent utility or credit card bill.

California residents also have certain rights regarding the “sale” or “sharing” of “personal information” (as such terms may be defined by CCPA). California residents have the right to opt out of such “sale” or “sharing” of their “personal information” in accordance with CCPA: (1) online, (2) by emailing DPO@Endeavorb2b.com, (3) by writing to Endeavor Business Media, Attention: Data Privacy Officer, 30 Burton Hills Blvd, Suite 185, Nashville, TN 37215. Once a year, California residents can also request certain information regarding our disclosure, if any, of certain categories of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year.

We will not discriminate against you because you have exercised any of your privacy rights under the CCPA.

Nevada Residents

Nevada consumers who have purchased goods or services from us may opt out of the “sale” of “covered information” as such terms are defined under Nevada law. We do not engage in such activity, but if you have questions about this you can email us at DPO@Endeavorb2b.com.

Users Outside of the United States and Consent to Transfer

The Websites and Services provided by Endeavor Business Media are operated in the United States. If you are located in another jurisdiction, please be aware that information you provide to us will be transferred to, stored and processed in the United States. By using the Websites or providing us with any information, you consent to this transfer, processing, and storage of your information in the United States, a jurisdiction in which the privacy laws are not as comprehensive as those in the country where you reside or are a citizen, such as the European Union. You understand that the U.S. government can obtain access to the personal data you submit if necessary for investigative purposes (e.g., terrorism investigation). We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Notice. We use appropriate and suitable safeguards for transferring your Personal data to the U.S.

Your EU and UK Data Subject Rights

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom (UK), we collect and process Personal data about you only where we have a legal basis for doing so under applicable data protection law, including under the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK GDPR.

It satisfies a legitimate interest (which is not overridden by your rights and interests), such as for research and development, to market and promote the Website and to protect our legal rights and interests
You give us consent to do so for a specific purpose
We need to process your Personal data to comply with a legal obligation.

If you have consented to our use of personal data about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your preferences at any time.

We note that we are a “controller” for those services where we make decisions on how personal information is used in connection with our services, and we are a “processor” for those services where we only use personal information as allowed by our customers.

Where we make decisions on how personal information is used in connection with our Websites, products or services (where we are acting as a controller), we are responsible for the obligations of a “controller” under applicable laws in connection with the processing of personal information – for example, we use this Privacy Statement and other notices to provide you with information about our use of personal information, as required by law. Where we only use personal information as allowed by our customers (where we are acting as a processor), our customers are similarly responsible for the obligations of a “controller” under applicable laws in connection with the processing of personal information.

We may use your email address to send you newsletters or marketing emails. We will ask for your consent consistent with the applicable law when you first provide your Personal data. You can opt out by following the unsubscribe instructions included in these emails, or you can contact us at DPO@Endeavorb2b.com or in writing to Endeavor Business Media, Attention: Data Privacy Officer, 30 Burton Hills Blvd, Suite 185, Nashville, TN 37215.

Cookie Notice

Endeavor Business Media, LLC, its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively “Endeavor Business Media” or “we”) uses cookies and other internet technologies in the management of our Websites, mobile applications and email programs in an effort to enrich your online experience with us.

What are cookies and how are they used?

"Cookies" are small text files containing small amounts of information that are sent to your computer's browser and stored on your device when you visit a website. Upon your first visit to one of our Websites, a cookie will be sent to your computer that uniquely identifies your browser. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie. Many major web services use cookies to provide useful features for their users, such as letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and generally to improve the user experience. They can also help to ensure that advertisements you see online are more relevant to you and your interests. Our cookies do not contain any information that is personally identifiable.

Like many websites, Endeavor Business Media uses pixel tags, also known as web beacons, clear gifs, or web bugs, which are small graphic files that allow us and third parties to monitor the use of the Websites and collect usage data. We may use pixel tags, either provided by us or by our third-party service providers and advertisers, to collect information about your visit, including the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the tag appears, the pages you view, the links you click and other actions taken in connection with our Websites and use them in combination with cookies to provide offers and information of interest to you. Pixel tags help us improve our understanding of our web traffic and visitor behavior, as well as gauge the response to our promotional efforts. This usage data we collect is generally non-identifying, but if we associate it with you as a specific and identifiable person, we treat it as personal data.

Cookies can be set by the site or Service you are visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by a third party, such as analytics or advertising services (“third-party cookies”). Third parties may collect and use information as we have described in this Cookie Notice and our Privacy Notice and pursuant to their own privacy policies.

We use industry-standard, third-party advertising service companies to display marketing of our customers that is most relevant to you when you visit our Websites or open our emails. In some cases, we will use the information collected by our Service Providers to target and serve advertisements to our subscribers and Website visitors on other websites based on your usage of our Websites and Services. You can opt-out of Endeavor processing your personal information for targeting advertising across unrelated websites (known as ‘cross-contextual behavioral advertising’) under applicable state law by: (1) submitting this OPT-OUT FORM, (2) email DPO@Endeavorb2b.com, or (3) by mail to Endeavor Business Media, Attention: Data Privacy Officer, 30 Burton Hills Blvd, Suite 185, Nashville, TN 37215.

We do not sell or share personal information with unrelated third parties for them to use in cross-contextual behavioral advertising.

Types of cookies

Our Websites and other online Services use the following types of cookies for the purposes set out below:

Strictly necessary cookies	These Cookies are necessary for the Website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request
Statistical cookies	These Cookies collect information about how visitors use a Website, for instance which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These Cookies don’t collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these Cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is only used to improve how a website works, to gather broad demographic information and to monitor the level of activity on our Websites. We use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics uses its own cookies. You can find out more information about Google Analytics cookies here: https://developers.google.com/analytics/resources/concepts/gaConceptsCookies. You can find out more about how Google protects your data here: https://policies.google.com/privacy. You can prevent the use of Google Analytics relating to your use of our Services by downloading and installing the browser plugin available via this link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB
Functionality cookies	These cookies enable the Website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. By recognizing you when you return to our Website, these cookies allow us to record information about your visit to our Website, such as pages visited, links followed, and videos viewed so we can personalize our content for you, remember your preferences (for example, your choice of topics, language or region), and display marketing that is more relevant to your interests using contextual information within our Website. They are also used to limit the number of times you see certain marketing content and help measure the effectiveness of the marketing campaigns. These cookies may enable visitor identification over time, but not across non-Endeavor Business Media websites. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these Cookies then some or all of these Services may not function properly.
First Party Advertising Cookies	These cookies are used by Endeavor Business Media and our Service Providers to deliver advertisements on our Websites and certain third-party websites that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. These cookies use information about your browsing history on our Websites to group you with other users who have similar interests. Based on that information, our Service Providers may display marketing and advertisements about our Services or those of our Business Partners that we think will be relevant to your interests while you are on our Websites and certain third-party websites. You can opt-out of Endeavor using your personal information to target advertising to you on unrelated websites by: (1) submitting this OPT-OUT FORM, (2) email DPO@Endeavorb2b.com, or (3) by mail to Endeavor Business Media, Attention: Data Privacy Officer, 30 Burton Hills Blvd, Suite 185, Nashville, TN 37215.
Social Media cookies	Our website may contain helpful but non-essential features or plug-ins enabling third party social media services that use Cookies to enable you to share our content with your friends and networks. These cookies are used when you share information using a social media sharing button or “like” button on our Websites or you link your account or engage with our content on or through a social networking website such as Facebook, LinkedIn or Google+. The social network will record that you have done this. These Cookies may enable visitor identification across websites over time and building a profile of your interests. This may impact the content and messages you see on other websites you visit. We do not control the third party's use of those cookies, their duration, or their ability to share information with other third parties. If you do not allow these Cookies you may not be able to use or see these sharing tools.
Third Party Advertising cookies	These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. These Cookies may enable visitor identification across unrelated websites and over time. They are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. We do not control the third party's use of those cookies, their duration, or their ability to share information with other third parties. Please review each party's Cookie disclosure before consenting to this use category. We do not sell or share personal information with unrelated third parties for the purpose of cross-contextual behavioral advertising across our Websites and unrelated third party websites. You can disable cookies that remember your browsing habits and target advertising to you by visiting the NAI website opt-out page here: http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ or the DAA opt-out page here: http://www.aboutads.info/ or, for UK users http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices, or for EU users, the EDAA opt-out page here: http://youronlinechoices.eu/. If you choose to remove targeted or advertising cookies, you will still see advertisements, but they may not be relevant to you.

Fraudulent Recruiting Advertisements

Beware of Fraudulent Recruiting Advertisements

Job Applicants should be aware of job offer scams perpetrated through the use of the Internet and social media platforms. The scammers frequently misappropriate and use a company’s logo and photos of its executives to give the appearance of legitimacy. The scam preys upon those seeking employment and uses false and fraudulent offers of employment with employers, such as Endeavor Business Media, to steal from the victims. Endeavor Business Media believes that one of the best ways to put a stop to these types of scams is to make you aware of it.

Endeavor Business Media never requires any job applicants to pay money to anyone (Endeavor Business Media, its employees or anyone else) as part of the job application or hiring process. If someone asks for money or offers to send you a check for training, equipment, etc. as part of a recruiting process, they do not work for or represent Endeavor Business Media and are likely seeking to defraud you.

Endeavor Business Media’s job recruitment process involves in person and/or telephonic interviews in most cases and never interviews job applicants through chat rooms (such as Google Hangouts), or through instant messaging systems. In addition, Endeavor Business Media’s job recruiting staff sends email communications to job applicants from “@endeavorb2b.com” or “@endeavorbusinessmedia.com” email accounts only.

How to Recognize Potential Recruiting Fraud

The individuals who perpetrate frauds like this are continuously changing and evolving their methods, and one of the most important defenses is healthy skepticism based on the discussion above. Despite the fact that Endeavor Business Media cannot predict all the ways scammers might operate in the future, the following is a non-exclusive list of warning signs of recruiting fraud:

You are asked to provide credit card, bank account number(s) or other personal financial information as part of the “job application” process.
The position requires an initial monetary investment, such as a payment by wire transfer.
The contact email address contains a domain other than “@endeavorb2b.com” or “@endeavorbusinessmedia.com”, such as “@live.com,” “@gmail.com,” “@yahoo.com,” “@outlook.com,” or another personal email account. Or email correspondence is from an email address that is similar to an official Endeavor address but differs by one or more characters.
The posting includes spelling errors, grammatical errors, syntax errors, or otherwise appears to have been written by someone not fluent in English.
The open position does not appear on the company’s website listing of job positions.
The supposed “employer” contacts you by phone or through a chat room or instant messaging service and gives no way to call them back or the number they do give is not active or goes only to a voicemail box. For example, such supposed “employers” often direct that you “meet” them in chat rooms at specific times.
You are offered a payment or “reward” in exchange for allowing the use of your bank account (e.g., for depositing checks or transferring money related to promised employment).
You are asked to provide a photograph or other personal identification of yourself.
The job posting focuses on the amount of money supposedly to be made or reflects initial pay that is high compared to the average compensation for the type of job.
