How do we safeguard your personal data?
Security of your personal data
LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER maintains safeguards which include technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorized use, access, inadvertent disclosure, alteration, and destruction, and we require the third parties we contract with to support LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER business operations to employ reasonable security measures as well (see “When and how we share your information with others” below).

The legal basis we have for processing your personal data
The GDPR requires data collectors, such as LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER, to have a legal basis to use the personal data of EU residents. Therefore, this section shall apply to any such personal data collected by LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER. LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER uses the personal data that you provide to supply you with high-quality products, content, and services as you request, to send important notices, and for internal purposes such as auditing, data analysis, and research to provide you with the information you need to make the most informed technology purchasing decisions. We may also use your personal data to offer you products, content, or services that may be of interest to you, based upon your interests or the preferences you shared with us and may share your personal data with third party sponsors of content, events, and other business services or offers.
The legal basis for processing your personal data is your consent. In certain circumstances, we may otherwise process your personal data if LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER has a legitimate interest in doing so and LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER is not infringing any of your rights and freedoms. When LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER processes your personal data for LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER’s legitimate interests, LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER will consider and balance any potential impact on you and your rights under data protection and any other relevant law. Our legitimate business interests do not override your interests. LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER will not use your personal data in circumstances where your rights and freedoms override our legitimate interests unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law.
When and how we share your personal data with others
LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER may share your personal data to deliver content and services from our sites, affiliated companies, and third parties services that might interest you, including sponsored content and events, for business operations, and to comply with valid legal processes.

We may also share your personal data with third parties to deliver third-party sponsored content or other services that you request (see “third party sponsored content and events” below). As indicated above (see “To present offers that may be of interest to you”), however, your personal data continues to be held by LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER, unless you specifically indicate that LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER can share it with the third-party sponsor.
For business operations
We may also share your personal data with third parties we have contracted with to support LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER business operations including delivery, fulfillment, payment processing, email deployment, suppression list management, and data processing.
For third party sponsored content and events
LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER partners with third-party sponsors to make available a large library of content to our users, such as white papers, professional events (live or online), as well as other business services or offers. In return for access to such offers, we may ask you to provide us with personal data as part of the registration. We may use your personal data to send you the business offer you request. In addition, your personal data may be shared with the third-party sponsor(s) of the offer to communicate with you regarding the offer. Please note that once your personal data is shared with the sponsor, the sponsor’s privacy policy, including information on how to opt out in the future, will apply to your personal data.
As required by law
Your personal data may be shared when authorized by law or necessary to comply with a valid legal process.
In the event of new ownership
If part or all the ownership of LOCALS SERVICE PROVIDER or any of its products or services are sold or transferred, your personal data will be transferred to the new owner.
