This Privacy Policy does not apply to services offered by other companies or individuals, even if a product or site is linked to our Services and even if a relationship exists between GTI and a third party (see Your Choices below).
This Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference into the GTI Terms of Use Agreement, which also governs our Services.
If you are a resident of California, Nevada or Virginia, there are additional sections of this Privacy Policy that apply to you.

We may collect this information from you directly when you provide it to us for a specific purpose, such as when you enter a contest or send us information about a news story. We may collect information about you from third party sources, such as ad networks. We also may automatically collect certain information, such as through the use of analytics tools that evaluate how you interact with our online content.

How We May Disclose Your Information
To provide our Services, we may disclose your personal information to certain third parties, including:
Location Information
If you enable certain features, we may obtain location information from your device to provide location-related services, for example, weather alerts or breaking news alerts. Your location information may be shared with third parties that we have contracted with to perform the location-based features of our Services or collected by and/or shared with our third-party partners who help to provide you personalized advertisements.
We will ask for your permission before collecting this location data. You can withdraw consent to use precise, real-time or network location data at any time by turning off the location-based feature on your mobile device or by opting out of using any location-based features. If you withdraw consent, functionality associated with precise, real-time or network location may be limited. For more information about your choices regarding location data, see Your Choices below.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
A “cookie” is a small text file stored on your device that helps us recognize repeat visitors, personalize your experience, deliver Services efficiently, monitor how our Services are used, deliver customized advertising, and for other purposes.
We also use other digital technologies, including web beacons, pixel tags, or clear GIFs. These are small, transparent graphic images that are placed on a web page or in an email and used to monitor the activity of the user accessing that web page or email. These digital technologies are used for website traffic reporting, measuring advertising effectiveness, customizing users’ online experiences, and for other purposes.
Like most online operators, we use these technologies to collect information about our website and app users automatically, deliver Services, tailor your experience, monitor how our Services are used, improve them, and deliver customized advertising, as well as for other related purposes.
You may configure your browser to reject cookies. But if certain cookies are disabled, you may not be able to use all features of our Services. We do not currently respond to a web browser’s “do not track” signals.
Social Media
Our Services may use social media plug-ins (e.g., the Facebook “Like” button, “Share to Twitter” button) to enable you to easily interact with certain social media websites (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) and share information with others. When you visit our online Services and engage with these plug-ins, the social media platforms can place a cookie or pixel on your device enabling such operators to recognize individuals who have previously visited our online Services. If you are logged into these social media websites while visiting our online Services, the social media plugins allow the relevant social media websites to receive information that you have visited our online Services or other information. The social media plugins also allow the applicable social media websites to share information about your activities on our online services with other users of the social media website. We do not control any of the content from the social media plugins. We may also interact with you on social media platforms. If you contact us on one of our social media platforms, request services, or otherwise communicate directly with us on social media, we may contact you to interact with you. For more information about social media advertising and social media plugins from other social media websites, please refer to those websites’ privacy and data sharing statements.
Advertising and Personalized Content
Advertising is important to our provision of free and low-cost Services to you. We may share your personal information with our advertisers, advertising networks, or other third parties for direct marketing and promotional purposes. Additionally, GTI and its Stations, our advertisers, certain outside network advertising services, and other third parties may place cookies, web beacons, and other similar technology on your device to personalize your experience, collect information about your preferences, collect location information, and/or deliver customized advertising content.
Advertisers and other third parties involved in the delivery of ads to you may offer you opportunities to choose what type of information about you is collected, used, and shared, and how that is done. We do not control outside parties or the choices they may offer you – please contact them directly to learn about your choices. For more information about your options for receiving personalized advertisements, see Your Choices below.
Safeguarding Children’s Privacy
Our Services are not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 16 years of age.
Accessing Account Information
Certain Stations and Services may allow you to register for an account. If these functions are available, you may view your user profile and related information, update that information or delete that information or account. If you delete your account, we will delete information associated with your account, except as prohibited by applicable law or as needed to protect the rights and property of GTI and its users. Changes you make to account information may not occur in all copies or back-ups held by us or others, or if we determine that the change would be unduly expensive or burdensome. We may deny a request to access, change or delete account information if we believe there is a question about the identity or authority of the requester.
Information Security
We take steps to protect the security of the information you provide us. Yet, no security is perfect, and transmissions over the Internet are potentially vulnerable. Please use caution when disclosing your personal information.
Your Choices
Changes to the Privacy Policy
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we change our Privacy Policy, we will update the date at the top of the policy. If the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice. By using our Services following a change to this Privacy Policy, you accept our practices as described.
