PRIVACY POLICY

Your privacy is important to us. Our Privacy Policy was made to let you know how we collect, use, share, and process your personal information, as well as your rights in determining what we do with the information collected and stored about you when you access our website, www.beacongrand.com (collectively, the “Site”) or the features, content, or applications offered by the Beacon Grand (collectively, the “Services”).

The Site and all related Services are provided by the Beacon Grand. If you have any questions or comments about this Privacy Policy or about our use of your personal information, please contact us at 450 Powell Street, San Francisco, CA 94102 or by email at hosts@beacongrand.com.

When you visit our Site, we collect two types of information: personal information you give us and usage information automatically collected as you browse. The following are the specific types of information we collect from you.

We collect information you give us on our Sites and when you register for and use our Services. Examples include the following:
Registration and Profile Information: When you register to use our Services or update your profile, we collect various kinds of information about you including, your name and email address; your title, company and other profile information you provide; demographic information; information about your skills and preferences (if you are an influencer); and information you upload like photos, files, and documents.
Payment Information: If you choose to use a paid account or service, our payment processing vendor collects your credit card information and billing address.
Content Related Information: When uploading pictures, a name and an email address may be required. Generally, the information collected helps us to communicate with you regarding content that you have submitted. For instance, we may use your email address to notify you of the status of the content you have submitted.

While you visit or use our Sites or Services, certain information, including personal information, is collected about your use of the Sites and Services. Examples include the following:
Log and Usage Data. When you visit the Sites, our servers automatically record information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website (“Log Data”). This Log Data may include information such as your IP address, browser type or the domain from which you are visiting, the search terms you use, and any advertisements on which you click. For most users accessing the Internet from an Internet service provider the IP address will be different every time you log on. We use Log Data to monitor the use of the Site and Services, and for the Site’s technical administration. We use this information for internal system administration, to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer the Site. Such information may also be used to gather demographic information, such as country of origin and Internet Service Provider. We may link this information with your personal information.


Any or all of these activities with regard to Site usage information may be performed on the Beacon Grand’s behalf by our service providers, including, for example, our analytics vendor(s) and our email management partner(s).
Cookies and Similar Tracking Technologies. Like many websites, we also use “cookie” and similar tracking technology to collect additional website usage data and to improve the Sites and Services. A cookie is a small data file that we transfer to your computer’s hard disk. We do not use cookies to collect personally identifiable information, may use both session cookies and persistent cookies to better understand how you interact with the Sites and Services, to monitor aggregate usage by our users and web traffic routing on the Site, and to improve the Sites and Services.
A session cookie enables certain features of the Site and our Services and is deleted from your computer when you disconnect from or leave the Site. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser and may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the Site. Persistent cookies can be removed by following your web browser help file directions. Most Internet browsers automatically accept cookies. You can instruct your browser, by editing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites you visit.
Third parties on the Beacon Grand’s Site may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect information and infer your interests for interest-based advertising purposes. If you would prefer to not receive personalized ads based on your browser or device usage, you may generally express your opt-out preference to no longer receive tailored advertisements. Please note that you will continue to see advertisements, but they will no longer be tailored to your interests.
To opt-out of interest-based advertising by participating companies in the following consumer choice mechanisms, please visit:
– Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA)’s self-regulatory opt-out page (http://optout.aboutads.info/) and mobile application-based “AppChoices” download page (https://youradchoices.com/appchoices)
– European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (EDAA)’s consumer opt-out page (http://youronlinechoices.eu)
In the mobile environment, most mobile operating systems offer device-based opt-out choices that are transmitted to companies providing interest-based advertising. To set an opt-out preference for a mobile device identifier (such as Apple’s IDFA or Android’s GAID), visit the device manufacturer’s current choice instructions pages, or read more about sending signals to limit ad tracking for your operating system here http://www.networkadvertising.org/mobile-choices
Please note that these settings must be performed on each device (including each web browser on each device) for which you wish to opt-out, and if you clear your cookies or if you use a different browser or device, you will need to renew your opt-out preferences.
You may sign-up to receive emails or other communications from us. If you would like to discontinue receiving this content, you may update your marketing preferences by using the “Unsubscribe” link found in the emails or toggling off the “Opt-in” button located in your privacy setting page.
We do not respond to Do Not Track (“DNT”) signals sent to us by your browser at this time. To learn more about how DNT works, please visit http://allaboutdnt.com/.

We will not share, rent or sell personal information with any person or entity, except as set forth in this Privacy Policy below:
Third Party Service Providers/Vendors: We may use third party partners to help operate the Site and deliver our features and Services, and may share your information with service providers and other third parties that provide products or Services for or through this Site or for our business (such as Web site or database hosting companies, address list hosting companies, email service providers, analytics companies, distribution companies, fulfillment companies, and other similar service providers that use such information on our behalf).
Business Partners: With your consent, the Beacon Grand may share your information with business partners whose sites you have submitted content to, in order to allow them to provide you with offers, promotions, products, and services.
Legal Compliance and Protection of Rights and Interests: In certain situations, we may be required to disclose personal information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. We may also disclose your personal information as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or other legal process, when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights or property, to defend against legal claims, to prevent abuse, to protect your safety or the safety of others, to investigate fraud, or to respond to a government request.
Affiliates: We disclose your personal information to affiliated companies related by common ownership or control to carry out regular business activities.
Corporate Transactions: If the Beacon Grand is involved in a merger, acquisition, dissolution, sale of all or a portion of its assets, or other fundamental corporate transaction, we reserve the right to sell or transfer your information as part of the transaction. In such an event, you will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our website of any change in ownership, incompatible new uses of your personal information, and choices you may have regarding your personal information.

The Beacon Grand is very concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality of personal information. We use commercially reasonable physical, administrative, and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of your personal information. Because of the inherent nature of the Internet as an open global communications vehicle, we make no guarantee as to the security of your information or that your information, during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our system or otherwise in our care, will be absolutely safe from intrusion by others, such as hackers.

We process your personal information for the minimum period necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice, unless there is a specific legal requirement for us to keep the data for a longer retention period. We determine the appropriate retention period based on the amount, nature, and sensitivity of your personal information, and after the retention period ends, we will delete or anonymize your personal information. When we are unable to do so for technical reasons, we will ensure that appropriate measures are put in place to prevent any further such use of your personal information.

We respect your control over your personal information. You may exercise any of the following rights by sending an email with details of your request to guestservices@beacongrand.com

We encourage you to first reach out to us at guestservices@beacongrand.com, so we have an opportunity to address your concerns directly before you do so.

The Sites and Services are not directed to individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without parental consent.

Please be aware that personal information may be transferred, stored, and processed outside of your country, including in the USA. Although we take steps to provide adequate safeguards, the data protection laws in those countries might not be as comprehensive as those in your country.
The Beacon Grand endeavors to apply suitable safeguards to protect the privacy and security of personal information wherever it is transferred, and to use it only consistent with your relationship with us and the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time. We will post all changes to this Privacy Policy on this page and will indicate at the top of this page the Privacy Policy’s effective date.
