Privacy Notice

Moreno and Company

Introduction

At Moreno and Company, we take privacy seriously and we respect the privacy concerns of our community of users. This Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) describes how Moreno and Company publishing family and any other digital properties that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collect, use, disclose, and otherwise process personal information in connection with our websites (the “Sites”), mobile applications (the “Apps”), and the related content, services, products, and other features and functionality offered on or through those Sites and Apps (collectively, the “Services”).

Data privacy and protection is very important to us for everyone who uses our products and services, and who entrusts us with their information. We have written this privacy notice so you can better understand how we collect data, what we do with it and how we look after it. We will tell you how long we keep data and what happens when we no longer need it. We will also outline what rights you have over your data and how we protect and facilitate those rights.

Opting in and out of communications made easy

Sometimes people want to read privacy notices because a business is asking for their permission to contact them for marketing. They want to be sure that, if they agree, it will be easy for them to withdraw permission in the future. We want you to be able to opt out as easily as you opted in. Any marketing email we send you will always have an "unsubscribe" link that will take you off that relevant marketing list. Please remember that you may have subscribed from another email address; you will only be able to use the link to "unsubscribe" from the address to which the marketing email has been sent. We make it easy for you to change your preferences for postal marketing as well, giving clear instructions for opting out on all direct mail.

If you want to change the preferences you have with us for email or for postal marketing, you can send us an email here. “remove/unsubscribe” my name.

How to contact us

1. What personal information do we collect from you?

We collect information:

when you pay for any of our products or services
when you register to receive one of our newsletters
when you use any of our websites
when you attend any of our events
if you participate in any research we undertake
if you join one of our communities or forums
when you enter a competition
if you contact us about a query or a complaint

We collect the following types of information:

Contact information

When you use or subscribe to one of our services, such as purchasing a print or digital subscription, signing up to an email newsletter, entering a competition, joining one of our online communities or participating in any of our research projects, we will ask you to provide information such as your name, email and/or postal address so that we can provide you with the services requested.

General personal information

When conducting surveys or running competitions, in addition to contact information, we may collect other personal information such as your gender, date of birth, marital status, etc.

Payment details

When you purchase a product or service from us, such as subscribing to one of our magazines or attending one of our events, we will also ask you for your payment details in addition to your contact information, in order to secure payment and to authorise access to our products and services.

Online identifiers

When you visit one of our websites, we collect information about your web visit, such as how long you visited, what sites you visited or pages you looked at, your IP address and where you were when you visited, what sort of device you were using when you visited (such as a mobile phone or type of desktop PC, Mac etc), and information identifying the language used by your Device.

Behavioural data

When you visit one of our websites, we collect data on your online behaviour (e.g. time spent on the website, items clicked on, etc). When you buy a product or service from us, such as a magazine subscription or a ticket to a Bold Traveller event, we will collect information about what products and services you have bought from us. When you register for a newsletter or take part in research, we may collect data about your preferences, tastes and interests.

"Special" categories of data

Sometimes, we may collect data in online surveys on what is called "special categories of data". These could be data sets such as biometric information (including voice samples, facial recognition, etc), or political opinions, religion, philosophical beliefs, health, sexual orientation, etc. Whenever we conduct research on these topics, it is always optional, and we will make sure we have your consent to process this data. We will remind you at the time of why and how we are processing this data and what additional safeguards are in place for using, storing and ultimately either deleting or anonymising this data.

2. How do we use your personal information?

At Moreno and Company we collect different types of information about people for four main reasons:

To provide personalised services unique to individual users.
So we can monitor and improve the services we offer.
To sell advertising space on our websites. This helps us to keep our websites free for people who visit them.
To market products and services which we think would be relevant to you.

Newsletters

When you sign up to one of our newsletters, you are giving consent for us to use the email address provided to send you relevant content for the brands you have signed up to. You can withdraw this consent for any newsletter by unsubscribing at any time.

Advertising

We advertise on our site and in our newsletters to help keep most of the content free. We use cookies and similar technologies and work with trusted partners so that we can show you advertisements we believe might interest you, to control the number of times you see an ad and to measure the effectiveness of a campaign. We have a legitimate interest in using cookies but you can opt in or out of using them at any time. If you are interested and want to learn more about these, including how to opt out, please see our Cookie Policy. Please note, opting out of cookies does not mean you will not see any advertisements.

Social Media Advertising

We work with social media networks such as Facebook and Twitter to show you marketing content from our brands and selected advertisers if you have viewed a Moreno and Company website (BoldTraveller, Yes I Do! The Bold Report, The Bold Luxury Travel Show) and to make sure what we show you on these platforms is relevant to you. Data collected by these social media networks may also be anonymised and used in aggregate to help improve the quality and effectiveness of our websites and marketing efforts.

You can limit this kind of tracking and profiling by going to your account settings of Facebook and/or Twitter. You can also find out more about the pixels and cookies we use on our websites by reading our Cookies policy.

We may also participate in Facebook's 'Custom Audience' service from time to time. This service enables Moreno and Company to display to you personalised advertisements when you visit Facebook’s social media platforms. It works by converting your email address to a unique number that Facebook uses to match to unique numbers that Facebook generates from email addresses of its users. Where we use Facebook Custom Audiences, we will only include you if you have consented to receive marketing from us. If you have given us your consent, you can change your mind at any time by unsubscribing (linked in any email we send you) or by adjusting your preferences in our preference centre.

Research & Insight

We run various user communities, forums and reader panels. We send out research invitations to our research communities, to people who pay for our products and services and to people who have opted in to receive communications from us.

We may sometimes use your gender and age range collected during a survey for building "look-a-like" models. This data is anonymously transmitted to our Data Management Platform (Permutive) and matched with our subscribers and members. This allows us to provide relevant and targeted advertising. If you are interested and want to learn more about these, including how to opt out, please see our Cookie Policy. Please note, opting out of cookies does not mean you will not see any advertisements.

Delivery of goods and services / Customer account management

We will use the information you have provided for the provision of goods and/or services that you have requested and subsequently communicating with you about those products and services.

Please note too, that when you buy something from us - such as subscription or a ticket to an event - we may contact you about your registration details, to manage any account or subscription you have with us, or to provide customer service. This will be the case even if you have opted-out of, or declined to consent to, receiving promotional emails.

Competitions

When you enter one of our online competitions, we will process your information for the purposes of picking a winner. If you have opted-in to receiving information from us about our products and services (eg receiving subscriptions offers, event invitations, signing up for editorial newsletters etc) then we will use the information you provide to make sure we offer you relevant products and services (based on where you live, your age, gender, tastes, preferences etc). If you have opted-in to receive news and offers from any competition sponsors, we will share your information with them.

Further details about this are outlined in the "who do we share information with" with section.

Partnerships programmes

We work with our partners from the world of luxury goods, fashion, travel and retail so that we can present you with some outstanding offers and opportunities by either email or post. You will only ever receive partner messages from us if you have actively given permission. We won’t disclose your personal information to anyone, the messages will come from us and you can unsubscribe at any time from these messages.

Customer queries and complaints

We process any information you provide when dealing with any complaints or enquiries made by you or legally on your behalf.

3. Legal bases for data processing – what does it mean and how do we use them?

The law on data protection sets out several different reasons why a company may collect and process your personal data and it is one of our duties to make sure you understand which of these lawful bases we are using to process your data.

Consent

In specific situations, we can collect and process your data with your consent:

When you sign up to any editorial newsletter
When you tick a box to receive email from Moreno and Company, Bold Traveller, Yes I do Magazine, The Bold Report, The Bold Luxury Travel show - about news and offers
When you tick a box to consent to receive email from Moreno and Company on behalf of our partners
We send SMS messages, either from Moreno and Company or on behalf of our partners with your consent
When you give us your details to enter a competition
When you participate in any research, this is with your consent

Legitimate interest

In specific situations, we require your data to pursue our legitimate interests in a way which might reasonably be expected as part of running our business and which does not materially impact your rights, freedom or interests:

We personalise the marketing content we provide you
If you have bought a product or service from us, we will also use your details to send you direct marketing information by email or post, telling you about products and services that we think might interest you
If you have bought a product or service from us we will send you direct marketing on behalf of our partners

We will only use legitimate interest after we have properly evaluated the data processing and conducted a necessary balancing test. We will also give data subjects the right to object to the processing at any time.

Contractual obligations

In certain circumstances, we need your personal data to comply with our contractual obligations.

For example, when you purchase a print subscription to a magazine, we will keep your name and address to fulfil your subscription.

Legal compliance

If the law requires us to, we may need to collect and process your data.

For example, we can pass on details of people involved in fraud or other criminal activity affecting us to law enforcement.

4. Do we share your information with anyone else?

Moreno and Company and its subsidiaries

We may share your personal information:

With our brands: Bold Traveller, The Bold Report, The Bold Luxury Travel Show, Bold Style, Yes I Do Magazine. If all or any of our assets (eg a title owned by us) were to be sold to another business, the personal data relating to that title (eg the subscriber list / newsletter list etc) would be transferred to the new business owner.

Service providers

We work with service providers to perform some tasks on our behalf. This might include analysis, payments, marketing, identity management, IT services. This may include personal information and non-personal site usage information to provide aggregate demographics on our audiences. We may share your personal data with these providers to perform the necessary tasks. However, they are obliged not to disclose or use it for any other purposes. Any third-party processing of your data on our behalf will be subject to security and confidentiality obligations consistent with this privacy notice and applicable law.

Customer research & insight

We may disclose de-personalised data (such as aggregated statistics) about the audience of our products and services and/or research participants to describe our sales, customers, traffic patterns and other information to prospective partners, advertisers, investors and other reputable third parties, and for other lawful purposes. These statistics will never include identifiable personal information.

Law enforcement organisations

Under certain circumstances we may occasionally be required by law, court order or governmental authority to disclose certain types of personal information and we reserve the right to comply with any such legally binding request.

Marketing partners

With your explicit permission, we may share your information with other companies we are working with, such as competition sponsors. Whenever we share your information with another company, we will always ask for your permission, will name the company and will always be clear that your information will be shared with another organisation.

5. Collecting data on children

We do not knowingly collect and process information from children (anyone under the age of 13). The products and services we offer are generally aimed at people aged 18 and over.

If you are under the age of 13, we ask that you do not give us any information about you or use our websites.

In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

7. Profiling

We may sometimes use the data you share with us, and that we collect about you when browsing our websites and products, to personalise our services and to tailor marketing content. For example, we may use information you have provided to send you information about products we think you may be interested in. If you do not want to receive this material, you can unsubscribe at any point.

8. Cross-border transfers and security

We make sure that we have appropriate security measures to protect your information and make sure that, when we ask another organisation to provide a service for us, they have appropriate security measures and follow the same high standards of security and data protection as we do.

If we or our service providers transfer any information out of the North American Area (NAA), it will only be done with the relevant protection (stated under Canadianlaw) being in place.
