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, Gray 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.

To opt-out of receiving personalized advertising, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative Consumer Opt-Out Page at http://www.aboutads.info/choices, the Digital Advertising Alliance Consumer Choice Page https://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1. Please be aware that opting out of a network advertising service doesn\’92t mean that you won\’92t receive online ads. It only means that the network from which you opted out should no longer deliver ads tailored to your preferences and interests.

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.’

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 Gray 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.

Retention Policy

Unless otherwise required by law, it is our policy not to retain Personal Information or Sensitive Personal Information for longer than is reasonably necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. The criteria we use to determine specific retention periods include whether you have provided your consent and have not withdrawn it; whether there are other legal grounds for the continued processing; whether you have objected to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing; and whether retention or deletion is necessary to comply with legal obligations.

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.

Third Party Websites

If you choose to use any of the links we provide to third parties, you will be leaving our Services and going to a new site or platform. Our 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 Gray and a third party. Protection of your privacy at those other sites or platforms will be governed by the privacy policy at that site or platform. Gray and our Stations have no responsibility for the privacy policies or business practices of a third party we neither own nor control. Please take the time to read the privacy policies at these third-party sites or platforms. It is your choice whether or not to leave our Services and go to third-party sites or platforms.

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 material, we will provide notice consistent with applicable laws. By using our Services following a change to this Privacy Policy, you accept our practices as described.
