We may use cookies to understand Site and Internet usage and to improve or customize the content, offerings, or advertisements on our Sites. For example, we may use cookies to personalize your experience at our Sites (e.g., to recognize you by name when you return to a Site), save your password in password-protected areas, and enable you to use shopping carts on our sites.

f. Global Privacy Control. Some browsers and browser extensions support the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating your choice to opt-out from certain types of data processing, including data sales. In certain territories, when we detect such a signal, we will make reasonable efforts to respect your choices indicated by a GPC setting as required by applicable law.
Some of our sites contain links to or integrations with other sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, LinkedIn, etc., whose information practices may be different than ours. Visitors should consult the other sites’ privacy notices as we have no control over information that is submitted to, or collected by, these third parties.
a. Our Sponsors. The Sites covered by this Privacy Notice may offer content (e.g., contests, sweepstakes, promotions, games, applications, or social network integrations) that is sponsored by or co-branded with identified third parties. By virtue of these relationships, the third parties may wish to obtain personal information that visitors voluntarily submit to participate in the Site activity. At the time of requesting personal information, we will request your consent to such third parties also obtaining your personal information. Thereafter, we have no control over these third parties’ use of this information.
b. Data Analytics. We also use the services of reputable third parties to provide us with data collection, reporting, ad response measurement, and site analytics, as well as to assist with delivery of relevant marketing messages and advertisements. These third parties may view, edit, or set their own cookies. We, our third-party service providers, advertisers, and/or partners may also place web beacons for these third parties. The use of these technologies by these third parties is subject to their own privacy policies and is not covered by this Privacy Notice.

In the mobile environment, most mobile operating systems offer device-based opt-out choices that are transmitted to companies providing interest-based advertising. To set an opt-out preference for a mobile device identifier (such as Apple’s IDFA or Android’s GAID), visit the device manufacturer’s current choice instructions pages, or read more about sending signals to limit ad tracking for your operating system here: http://www.networkadvertising.org/mobile-choices.

Third parties with whom we partner to provide certain features on our site or to display advertising based upon your Web browsing activity may use Local Shared Objects (“LSOs” or a “Flash Cookie”) such as HTML 5 to collect and store information. We use a third-party service to publish ads on the Sites. When you view or click on an ad a cookie will be set to help better provide advertisements that may be of interest to you on the Sites and other websites. You may opt-out of the use of this cookie by visiting the page here. Different browsers may offer their own management tools for removing HTML5 LSOs.
We utilize a third-party service for targeting purposes. This service uses a variety of techniques including cookie-less device recognition technologies to recognize the user, and their activities across the Sites and other sites for the purpose of targeted marketing by us and other companies that utilize this service. If you wish to opt-out of this service, please visit the opt-out page here. Please be aware that this will not opt you out of advertising in general, but only in relation to this service.
Additionally, we work with the service provider, OneTrust, to operationalize our privacy controls. Thus, OneTrust will have access to certain data we collect about you, and that you share with us, as our data processor in order to process your data in accordance with this policy, your consumer preferences, and other rights and responsibilities outlined in this Notice.
The Sites operate globally so it is necessary to transfer your information internationally. In particular, your information will likely be transferred to, and processed in, the United States where many of our central databases operate. The data protection and other laws of other countries may not be as comprehensive as those in your country. Please be assured that we take reasonable steps to ensure that your privacy is protected. By using this Site, you consent to your information being collected, used, and transferred as set forth in Section 11 of this Privacy Notice.
For any data protected under EU data protection law, we, and our partners, such as OneTrust, shall only transfer personally-identifiable data outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or an Adequate Country subject to such measures as are necessary to ensure the transfer is in compliance with applicable data protection laws. Such measures may include, without limitation, transferring the data to a recipient that has: (a) achieved binding corporate rules authorization in accordance with EU Data Protection Law; and (b) executed standard contractual clauses adopted or approved by the European Commission.
Moreover, in the course of providing services, when data governed by EU data protection law is transferred outside of the EEA to a country that has not been deemed an “Adequate Country,” (a) the applicable standard contractual clauses (“SCCs”) at https://www.onetrust.com/legal-sccs (“OneTrust SCC’s Webpage”) shall apply to TGL’s data transfer(s).
The security of your personal information is important to us. We have put in place reasonable physical, electronic, and administrative procedures to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, to maintain data security, and to use correctly the information we collect online. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on the Sites, you can contact us at privacy@tmrwsportsgroup.com.
Access to personal information that is collected from our Sites and that we maintain may be available to you. For example, if you created a password-protected account within our site, you can access that account to review the information you provided.
You may also send an email to the following email privacy@tmrwsportsgroup.com requesting access to, deletion of, correction of, or transfer of your personal information. For verification purposes please include your first name, last name, and e-mail address you use for such service.
We will endeavor to respond to your request to access within 30 days. Under certain circumstances we will not be able to fulfill your request, such as if it interferes with our regulatory obligations, affects legal matters, we cannot verify your identity, or it involves disproportionate cost or effort.
If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Notice or its implementation you may contact us at privacy@tmrwsportsgroup.com.
