In addition to reviewing this privacy policy, please read our
Terms
of Service. Your use of SportsBusinessDaily.com constitutes agreement
to its terms and conditions.
SportsBusinessDaily.com is produced by Street & Smith Publications,
Inc., a division of American City Business Journals, Inc. This policy does not
cover information collected on sites linked to from SportsBusinessDaily.com.
It is the goal of SportsBusinessDaily.com to bring you information
that is tailored to your individual needs and, at the same time, protect your
privacy. The following is a summary of the various ways we treat the information
you provide us while using our site.
SportsBusinessDaily.com only collects personally identifying
information with your specific knowledge and consent. For instance, when you
register for our services, complete a survey, subscribe to our publications,
or submit information for editorial purposes, you are asked to provide information
such as your e-mail address, name or phone number. Optional information such
as your age or gender may also be requested.
SportsBusinessDaily.com uses this information to provide you
with the service you have requested. For example, if you subscribe to our service,
we may use your e-mail address to send you a confirmation notice and your mailing
address to send you other offers. We may also use the information to communicate
with you about new features, products or services, or to improve the services
that we offer by tailoring them to your needs.
SportsBusinessDaily.com does not sell any of our users' personal
information. We may, however, share information with carefully selected companies
who we think can offer you services and products of interest to you. If you
do not wish to have your information shared, write to us at info@sportsbusinessdaily.com.
If you do not wish to receive communications from us, simply follow the unsubscribe
instructions contained within the e-mail. If you've registered on any part of
SportsBusinessDaily.com, you may also change or update your member preferences
or information at "My
Account," in the top right corner of the navigation bar on each page.
We also allow access to our database by third parties that
provide us with services, such as technical maintenance or forums software,
but only for the purpose of and to the extent necessary to provide you with
those services. Any third party who has access to our database for this purpose
is bound by the terms set forth in this policy. There may also be occasion when
we are legally required to provide access to our database in order to cooperate
with police investigations or other legal proceedings. In those instances, the
information is provided only for that purpose.
You may have read about "cookies," nuggets of information that
are placed by a Website in a storage place on your own computer. We use cookies
to control the display of ads, to track usage patterns on the site, or to record
registration and personalization information. For example, if you register on
any part of SportsBusinessDaily.com, you can opt to save your user name and
password and other registration information. This cookie "recognizes" your browser
when you return to our site so you do not have to log in every time. We also
use cookies to control user access to our site.
Our cookies do not contain any information that is, in itself,
personally identifying.
Some of our advertisers occasionally serve you cookies as well.
We do not have control over cookies placed by advertisers.
If you don't want cookies, your Web browser likely includes
an option that allows you to not accept them. We don't recommend using this
option, though: It makes browsing our site a less enjoyable experience.
Finally, while your individual information is protected as
outlined above, we reserve the right to use aggregated, anonymous data about
our users as a group for any business purpose, such as analyzing usage trends
and seeking compatible advertisers and partners.

If your children disclose information about themselves in our

Accordingly, you should tell them not to do so.
If you're worried about your children's activities or their
privacy on our sites, we encourage you to send us an e-mail addressed to "Privacy
Policy Coordinator" at info@sportsbusinessdaily.com
This Privacy Policy may be modified from time to time; notice
of changes will appear on this page, so check back often. Any such changes will
be prospective, never retroactive.
