This Privacy Policy explains how Conservative Institute, LLC, American Digest Media, LLC, Connell Media, LLC, and Patriot Moms Digest, LLC, and each of their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, and sub-brands (collectively, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collect, use, disclose, sell/share, and otherwise process information about you when you access or use our websites, newsletters, email subscription products, online video services, applications, interactive features, and other services that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Services”).
This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and forms part of the Terms of Use governing the Services.
Personal Information means information that identifies you, relates to you, describes you, or could reasonably be linked to you (directly or indirectly), including online identifiers and browsing activity.
Sell / Share / Targeted Advertising may have specific legal meanings in certain U.S. states. In general, they can include disclosing Personal Information to certain third parties for monetary or other valuable consideration, or for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Brand Family means the Company’s brands and sub-brands operated under Conservative Institute, LLC, American Digest Media, LLC, Connell Media, LLC, and Patriot Moms Digest, LLC.
We may receive information from third parties such as advertising, analytics, and marketing partners; social platforms if you interact with our content there; and data providers and partners (including, potentially, data brokers and affiliates), consistent with law.
We may create inferences about your interests or preferences and group users into audience segments based on engagement, survey responses, and activity across our Services.
What we do not intentionally collect through our core news/newsletter Services: banking account numbers, payment card numbers (except through a payment processor where applicable), protected health information (PHI), and biometric identifiers.
When you subscribe to a newsletter, sign up through a form, respond to a poll, register for an account (if offered), or otherwise provide your email address to one brand, you understand and agree that your subscription may be treated as a subscription to our broader Brand Family and we may send you communications from any of our brands, including brands operated under Conservative Institute, LLC, American Digest Media, LLC, Connell Media, LLC, and Patriot Moms Digest, LLC.
We provide a global unsubscribe mechanism intended to stop promotional email communications across our Brand Family. You may also see brand-specific unsubscribe options in certain emails.
Even if you opt out of promotional emails, we may still send non-promotional messages where permitted, such as policy updates, security notices, and transactional or service communications.
We and our partners use cookies, pixels, SDKs, tags, local storage, or similar technologies to remember preferences, improve user experience, understand usage and performance, attribute and measure advertising, and deliver interest-based advertising where permitted.
Your browser may allow you to control cookies through settings. If you disable cookies, some features may not function properly.
You can use this tool to help manage your cookie settings.
We disclose information to vendors that help us operate the Services (e.g., hosting, email delivery, analytics, security, customer support). These vendors process information on our behalf subject to contractual restrictions.
We may share information across our affiliates, subsidiaries, and sub-brands for operations, personalization, measurement, and marketing consistent with this Privacy Policy.
We may disclose information to advertising and marketing partners, including for targeted advertising, measurement, audience building, and campaign management.
We reserve the right to disclose, license, rent, exchange, or otherwise make available certain information to third parties—including advertisers, marketers, affiliates, data partners, and (where permitted) data brokers—for monetary or other valuable consideration, subject to your rights and choices and applicable law.
How this may work (examples):
Categories of information that may be involved now or in the future include:
Guardrails: We do not intentionally collect or sell sensitive categories such as government IDs, precise geolocation, biometric identifiers, or protected health information in the ordinary course of providing our media/newsletter Services.
Suppression and opt-outs: If you opt out of promotional emails, we may retain your email address on a suppression list to ensure we honor your request. We may also use and disclose limited information as reasonably necessary to comply with your opt-outs, prevent fraud, and comply with law.
Information may be disclosed or transferred as part of a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of assets.
We may disclose information to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect rights and safety, investigate fraud or abuse, or enforce our Terms.
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide the Services, maintain preferences and suppression lists, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. We may also retain certain information in de-identified or aggregated form.
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We may use AI-assisted tools (including generative AI) in our operations, including to assist with news aggregation workflows and drafting support, generate and test email subject lines and headlines, help create marketing copy and poll/survey prompts, and support analytics and performance measurement.
We may use third-party AI vendors. Depending on the tool and configuration, information you provide (e.g., survey responses) may be processed by those vendors to provide the requested functionality, subject to contractual restrictions.
We do not use AI to make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about you (such as credit, housing, employment, or insurance eligibility) through our core news/newsletter Services.
The Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.
You can opt out of promotional emails using the unsubscribe link in our emails or by contacting us as described below. If you opt out, we may keep limited information (such as your email address) on a suppression list to honor your request and for compliance purposes.
This section applies to California residents to the extent the Company is subject to the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA (“CCPA/CPRA”).
Right to Opt-Out of Sale/Sharing: California residents have the right to direct a business that sells or shares personal information to stop selling or sharing that personal information.
To exercise your right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information, use one of the methods below:
If your browser or device is enabled with a recognized opt-out preference signal (such as the Global Privacy Control), we will process that signal as a request to opt out of sale/sharing for that browser/device and associated profiles (and, if you are logged into an account or otherwise known to us, for your account as well).
Email: contact@connellmedia.com
Subject: Do Not Sell or Share
In your message, include the email address you want us to apply the opt-out to (and any brand names you subscribe to, if known).
We will not require you to create an account to submit an opt-out request. We may request limited information necessary to identify the information to which the request applies.
Important: Opting out of sale/sharing is different from opting out of promotional emails. If you want to stop receiving promotional emails, use the unsubscribe link in our emails or request a global unsubscribe.
Residents of certain U.S. states may have rights to access, delete, correct, or opt out of certain processing such as targeted advertising. We will honor applicable rights where required by law. To submit a request, contact us using the information below.
Our Services are intended primarily for users in the United States. If you access the Services from outside the U.S., you understand your information may be processed in the U.S. and other jurisdictions where our service providers operate.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will update the “Last Updated” date above. If changes are material, we may provide additional notice as required by law.
