We may also use the information we have about you:
• as necessary if we believe there has been a breach of the Terms of Use or the rights of any third party, or
• to comply with legal and regulatory requirements
We combine information we receive from other sources with information you give to us and information we collect about you. We use this combined information for the purposes set out above.
DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We share your data with third parties, including event sponsors and other Frieze affiliates, and the other categories of partners as listed above. Some of these disclosures of data may constitute a sale of data under some data privacy laws. Accordingly, we offer the option for you to opt out of the sale of your personal information, as further set forth below.
We may share your personal information with Endeavor and with selected third parties including:
• business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors for the performance of any contract we enter into with them or you in order to provide you with a product or service;
• business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors to provide you with information about promotions and offers;
• advertisers, advertising networks and social networks that require the data to select and serve relevant advertisements to you and, in some cases, to others. For more information on how we use personal information for targeted advertising, see below; and
• analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimization of the Service.
We may disclose your personal information to third parties:
• If we enter into negotiations to buy, sell, or merge with any business or assets, or if we enter into bankruptcy, reorganization, or receivership, in which case we may disclose your personal information to the prospective or eventual seller or buyer of such business or assets;
• if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal information in order to comply with any legal obligation, or in the event of an emergency, or in order to enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other agreements, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Frieze,, Endeavor, our customers, clients or others; and
• to any other third party not covered in this policy with your prior consent.
EVENTS
Frieze brings the world’s leading international contemporary and modern art galleries to its fair each year and consists of events throughout the week. Some of these events are owned by Frieze or an Endeavor affiliate. Other events are produced by us working with one or more partners, and some are owned by one or more of our partners. Where an event includes a named sponsor, Frieze or its affiliates may share some marketing and other information about you with that sponsor so that you can attend or participate in the event. Where we are managing the event that is owned by someone else, your data may be collected and used by us to host the event and to market other Frieze or Endeavor content to you, and we will also share that data with the owner of the event.
MARKETING AND ADVERTISING
Targeted Advertising
We use your personal information to tailor our marketing and advertising efforts. To do this, we provide your information to third party advertising networks (such as Google DoubleClick) and social media companies (such as Facebook). When we provide data to agencies, ad networks, and other parties for targeted advertising, we do not provide them with your name, financial information, or any sensitive information (such as a government ID or date of birth, if we have collected that). We use online identifiers such as email, cookie ids, and device identifiers to help us provide targeted advertising to you and others like you. We may also use aggregate information to help advertisers reach the kind of audience they want to target. We may make use of the personal information we have collected from you to enable us to display advertisements to target audiences.
To opt out of targeted advertising, you may use the following links provided by third parties that manage opt outs for some ad networks:
http://preferences-mgr.truste.com,
http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp
http://www.aboutads.info/
https://policies.google.com/privacy/partners
Email Marketing
We also add you to our mailing lists for email communications from Frieze and our partners, including Frieze, and more broadly Endeavor, when you sign up for our mailing lists, purchase a ticket or our merchandise, or subscribe to our content online. If you provide us with your email address to receive communications, you can opt out at any time by using the unsubscribe links at the bottom of our emails.
Mobile Notifications
With your consent, we may send promotional and non-promotional push notifications or alerts to your mobile device. You can deactivate these messages at any time by changing the notification settings on your mobile device.
SOCIAL SHARING
You may be able to use social sharing features and other integrated tools on the Site such as the Facebook "Like" button. These features and tools may permit you to share actions you take on our Service with other media, and vice versa. Your use of such features enables the sharing of information with your friends or the public, depending on the settings you establish with the service that provides the social sharing feature. Please remember, though, that use of the information you share on social media sites will be governed by the privacy policies of the social media provider, and we are not responsible for how they treat the information.
COOKIES AND OTHER TECHNOLOGIES
We may collect data about your use of the Services through web server logs, cookies, and tracking pixels. Web server logs store website activity, while cookies are small text files placed on your device to: (i) recognize your device, (ii) store preferences, (iii) track visited pages, (iv) enhance user experience, (v) perform analytics, and (vi) assist with security.
Tracking pixels (also known as web beacons or clear GIFs) are embedded in websites, ads, and emails to track usage, measure ad effectiveness, and access cookies. We may also use these technologies to collect device-related data, including IP addresses, browser details, operating systems, internet service providers, unique device identifiers, and browsing or video viewing history before and after visiting the Services. We or third parties may place cookies on your browser to deliver customized content, offers, and advertisements. These cookies may be linked to demographic or voluntarily provided data (e.g., email) and shared with vendors for targeted advertising.
Frieze generally treats data we collect using these cookies and similar technologies as non-personal data. However, to the extent that Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal data by local law, we also treat these identifiers as personal data in those regions. In addition, Frieze sometimes combines non-personal data collected from these technologies with other personal data Frieze holds. When we combine data in this way, we treat the combined data as personal data for purposes of this Privacy Policy.
Depending on your jurisdiction you may have the ability to opt-in or out of cookies by interacting with the Cookie Banner on our Site. For more information, please see our Cookie Notice and the “Opting Out of The Sale or Sharing of Your Personal Information” section below.
Regardless of your jurisdiction, you can adjust your browser settings to receive cookie notifications or block cookies entirely. Refer to your browser’s Help section for details (e.g., Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari). Blocking cookies may limit access to certain features.
We work with third parties to serve ads, track anonymized site usage, and provide content-sharing services. These third parties may also use cookies and similar technologies, governed by their own privacy policies.
Global Privacy Controls. We recognize user-initiated opt-out preference signals sent by your web browser, such as the global privacy control (“GPC”), as a valid request to opt-out of the sale and sharing of personal information processed on this website (i.e., through cookies and tracking technologies). For more information about GPC and how to implement it on your browser, please visit globalprivacycontrols.org.
Do Not Track. Please note that certain web browsers may also transmit “do-not-track” signals to the websites with which the user communicates. Because there currently is no industry standard concerning what, if anything, websites should do when they receive such signals, we do not alter our practices when the website receives a “do-not-track” signal from a visitor’s browser.
STORAGE AND TRANSFER OF INFORMATION
We operate the Services in and from a number of different jurisdictions.
the information that we collect from you may be transferred to and stored at a destination outside the United Kingdom (UK), including the United States which may not have equivalent data protection laws to those applicable to the UK or European Economic Area (EEA). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us, for one of our affiliated companies, or for organizations that function as a service provider to us. To ensure your personal information is properly protected in line with EU and UK data protection laws, the transfer of this information is governed by a contract including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission and the UK Government.
CHILDREN
We do not knowingly collect information from children who are under 13 years old. If you are a parent or guardian of a child who is 13-16 years old and using our Services, please send us an email at dataprivacy@IMG.com to opt in to the use of your personal information or request deletion of any personal information we may have collected about the child. If you are a parent or guardian of a child who is under 13 years old and using our Services, please contact us to arrange for deletion of any personal information we may have collected about the child.
Opting Out Of The Sale Of Your Personal Information
Sometimes we share your data with sponsors, vendors, Frieze, Endeavor, and third-party advertising networks. These transfers, which are used to provide you with certain Services and/or to more effectively provide you with personalized Services (including advertising), can be deemed a sale under some data privacy laws.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to opt out of the sale of your personal information by clicking on the Do Not Sell My Personal Information link here, or at the bottom of the homepage. You may also call 1-866-983-0571, or email: dataprivacy@img.com.
