Effective Date: February 28th, 2023

Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“SBS”) respect your right to privacy. This policy summarizes what personally identifiable information we may collect, and how we might use this information. This policy also describes other important topics relating to your privacy.

SBS Global Internet Privacy Policy

It is SBS’ policy to comply with all applicable privacy and data protection laws. This commitment reflects the value we place on earning and keeping the trust of our employees, customers, business partners and others who share their personal information with us.

This Global Internet Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) describes how SBS protects your privacy when we collect personal information on SBS Internet sites. As used in this Policy, the term “personal information” means information that identifies you personally, alone or in combination with other information available to us.

This Policy applies, in general, to all Internet sites operated by or on behalf of SBS and its business units, including but not limited to radio, television and music Internet sites (each an “SBS Internet Site”). It applies to our current information collection, use, and sharing practices, as well as those in place for the last 12 months.

Web Site Privacy Statements

Although this Policy applies to all SBS Internet Sites generally, each SBS Internet Site has a different purpose and different features. If additional or different disclosures are required with respect to a specific SBS Internet Site, we will provide those disclosures on the site itself or in a separate web site privacy statement (“Web Site Privacy Statement”) posted on that site. Each individual disclosure or Web Site Privacy Statement supplements and amends this Policy, but only with respect to the SBS Internet Site on which it is posted.

Your Consent

By using an SBS Internet Site or providing personal information to us, you are consenting to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Policy and any applicable Web Site Privacy Statements.

If you do not consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Policy (and any applicable Web Site Privacy Statements), do not use SBS Internet Sites.

Limitations on the Collection, Use and Disclosure of Personal Information

To the extent required by applicable law, whenever SBS collects personal information on an SBS Internet Site, SBS will:

• provide timely and appropriate notice to you about its data practices;
• collect, use, disclose and transfer your personal information only with your consent, which may be express or implied, depending on the sensitivity of the personal information, legal requirements, and other factors;
• collect your personal information only for specific, limited purposes. The information we collect will be relevant, adequate and not excessive for the purposes for which it is collected;
• process your personal information in a manner consistent with the purposes for which it was originally collected or to which you have subsequently consented;
• take commercially reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete, and, where necessary, kept up-to-date;
• not use your personal information for direct marketing purposes without giving you an opportunity to “opt-out”; and
• take appropriate measures, by contract or otherwise, to provide adequate protection for personal information that is disclosed to a third party or transferred to another country, including transfers within SBS.

Information Collected on SBS Internet Sites

When you access and use an SBS Internet Site, we collect the following categories of information about you:

SBS collects information you knowingly and voluntarily provide when you use an SBS Internet Site, for example, the information you provide when you sign up to receive email alerts, when you complete a survey, or when you ask us a question or email us with feedback. Specifically, SBS collects:

• Identifiers such as your name and your username/password if you register on an SBS Internet Site;
• Contact information such as your email address, physical mailing address, and telephone number(s); and
• Payment information such as your credit card number, card expiration date, and CVV.

SBS also collects Internet and other electronic network activity information that is sent to us automatically by your web browser. This information typically includes the IP address of your Internet service provider, the name of your operating system (such as Macintosh® or Windows®) and the name and version of your browser (such as Internet Explorer®, Firefox® or Netscape®). The information we receive depends on the settings on your web browser. Please check your browser if you want to learn what information your browser sends or how to change your settings.

Cookies

Internet and other electronic network activity information is sometimes collected by placing a “Cookie” on your computer

SBS may obtain information about you by installing a “tag” on your computer’s hard drive. This tag is known as a “cookie.”

All of our SBS Internet Sites use “session cookies.” A session cookie is used to tag your computer with a computer-generated, unique identifier when you access our site. A session cookie does not identify you personally and expires after you close your browser. We use session cookies to collect statistical information about the ways visitors use our sites – which pages they visit, which links they use, and how long they stay on each page. We analyze this information (known as “clickstream data”) in statistical form to better understand our visitors’ interests and needs to improve the content and functionality of our sites.

Some SBS Internet sites also use “persistent cookies.” These cookies do not expire when you close your browser; they stay on your computer until you delete them. By assigning your computer a unique identifier, we are able to create a database of your previous choices and preferences and in situations where these choices or preferences need to be collected again, they can be provided by us automatically, saving you time and effort. For example, after you make a purchase, if you decide to make another purchase, your shipping address will have been retained and will only need to be confirmed. If an SBS Internet Site uses “persistent cookies” we will notify you in the Privacy Statement posted on that site.

If you do not wish to receive cookies, you may set your browser to reject cookies or to alert you when a cookie is placed on your computer. Although you are not required to accept cookies when you visit an SBS Internet Site, you may be unable to use all of the functionality of the site if your browser rejects our cookies.

Use of Information

Many of the SBS Internet Sites permit you to make choices about the use of your personal information. In most cases, we ask you to indicate your choices at the time and on the page where you provide your personal information.

• Identifiers will be used to:
  • authenticate you as a registered user,
  • communicate with you directly; and
  • prevent fraud;
• Contact information will be used to:

  • contact you in response to a customer service request, or respond to other inquiries, questions or requests that you make;

  • engage in market research; and
• Payment information will be used to:
  • process payment in such a way to allow you to purchase goods or services through an SBS Internet Site; and
  • process refunds as appropriate.

The Internet and other electronic network activity information provided by your browser does not identify you personally. We use this information to create statistics that help us improve our sites and make them more compatible with the technology used by our Internet visitors.

We may use Aggregate or Deidentified information for historical, statistical or scientific purposes. “Aggregate” means information that relates to a group or category of consumers, from which individual consumer identities have been removed, that is not linked or reasonably linkable to any consumer or household, including via a device. “Deidentified” means information that cannot reasonably identify, relate to, describe, be capable of being associated with, or be linked, directly or indirectly, to a particular consumer.

Security of Personal Information

Your personal information will generally be stored in SBS databases or databases maintained by our service providers. Most of these databases are stored on servers located in the United States. To the extent required by law, if your personal information will be transferred outside your country an appropriate notice will be provided.

SBS maintains reasonable safeguards to protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of your personal information. For example, we use secure socket layer (SSL) technology to transfer personal information over the Internet. Although we use security measures to help protect your personal information against unauthorized disclosure, misuse or alteration, as is the case with all computer networks linked to the Internet, we cannot guarantee the security of information provided over the Internet and will not be responsible for breaches of security beyond our reasonable control.

These links are provided as a service and do not imply any endorsement of the activities or content of these sites, nor any association with their operators.
