  1. How We Disclose Your Personal Information

 

We may disclose your personal information in the ways that are described in this Privacy Notice, such as:

 

  1. Fanatics Family Companies: We may disclose your personal information to our Fanatics Family of Companies, including affiliated entities, parents, and subsidiaries for the purposes described above. For example, our family of companies may exchange information about your interactions with our services, your preferences, and inferences we have drawn about you to customize offerings and market services to you.
  2. The public or third parties when you choose or direct us to do so, or intentionally interact with those third parties through our Services, such as:
  1. Information you provide in response to offers from third parties through our Services.
  2. Information in product reviews, including your name or username, pictures you upload, and any other information you choose to include. Reviews that you submit to our Properties will be viewable to other users.
  3. Content that you choose to post or otherwise make available to other users or the public in connection with the Services or on third party sites.
  1. Service providers: We may permit our vendors and subcontractors to access your personal information in connection with performing services for us, such as, but not limited to IT providers, internet service providers, platform providers, game providers, and data analytics providers. We may also engage other companies to provide certain services, such as age and identity verification, email distribution, fraud prevention, customer support, and market research.
  2. Professional consultants, such as accountants, lawyers, and financial advisors.
  3. Vendors that process your transactions, including your credit card issuer or other payment provider, a third-party credit verification company, product handlers, delivery services, and similar vendors. Please note, if we use a vendor to facilitate or assist in communication with you, the vendor will receive your personal information (such as your name, email, or telephone number) and may record and store the content of your communications with us.
  4. With third parties to provide you with services or communications: We may disclose your information to third parties to provide you with services or benefits. For example, when you participate in our FanCash program, we may disclose your personal information to Business Partners and other third parties to operate the program and allow you to acquire and redeem the currency through our Services. 
  5. With others for legal, security, or safety purposes: We may disclose your personal information (including precise geolocation data and other potentially sensitive personal information): (a) as required by law or legal process; (b) to anticipate, prevent, detect, and investigate suspected fraud, harassment, or other violations of any law, rule, or regulation; (c) to investigate suspected violations of any terms or policies applicable to the Services provided by us or our third party providers or Fanatics Family of Companies; (d) to regulators and oversight bodies, (e) to protect our, our users’, and other third parties’ rights, property, and safety; and (f) to otherwise establish, exercise, and defend against legal claims.  These potential disclosures, including sharing personal information with gaming regulators, leagues, associations, governing bodies, sports teams, colleges or related oversight agencies and boards in relation to the enforcement of our Terms of Service and related policies as well as their rules governing authorized gaming, including, but not limited to, in connection with identifying or overseeing their athletes, coaches, officers, directors, shareholders, employees or contractors. We may also use IP address or other device identifiers to identify individuals, either acting alone or in cooperation with third parties such as copyright owners, internet service providers, wireless service providers and/or law enforcement agencies.
  6. With others In connection with a corporate transaction: We may transfer your personal information in connection with a sale, acquisition, merger, change of control, bankruptcy, joint venture, or similar transaction involving all or a part of our business.  If required by law, we will take commercially reasonable efforts to notify you via email (sent to the email address specified in your account) or by posting of an updated Privacy Notice on our Properties if such a transaction results in the transfer of control of your personal information to a non-affiliate.
  7. With Business Partners for their own purposes: We work with third parties (“Business Partners”) and may disclose your personal information to them for their own purposes or their service providers’, such as for marketing or compliance purposes. In many cases, such disclosure is related to our operation of the Services, such as disclosing your information to a Business Partner when you make a purchase or place a bet on-site at or near the stadium of that Business Partner.  Examples of Business Partners that might receive your personal information include but are not limited to (a) social networks, partners who work with us on promotional or sponsorship opportunities available through our Services;  (b) other companies that may use the data to help us drive advertising-related revenue (including those who may have registered as a “data broker”); (c) content licensors, like the NFL, who may be involved in providing video content that you may access through the Services; (d) market access partners or others with whom we work to provide Services in your region; (e) stadium operators; (f) sports leagues, teams, and governing bodies; as well as (g) partners who advertise on our sites or other sites to measure advertising effectiveness. You may have the right to opt out of such disclosures, depending on where you live (See “Your Choices”). However, we do not control how Business Partners use and share your information once they receive it. You will need to contact such Business Partners directly for information about their privacy practices or to exercise rights you may have (including if you would like to opt-out of receiving future emails from a Business Partner).  
  8. With other third parties with your consent.

  1. Service-Specific Processing of Information

Several of our Services involve specific processing activities, which are described below in this section.

  1. Identity Verification and Biometric Information

Some of our Services require verifying your identity by collecting your picture (such as a selfie) of you along with a picture or scan of your driver’s license or other government-issued identification document.  We may engage vendors that use such information to capture, scan, obtain, and use your biometric data—specifically, your facial geometry scan—to verify your identity and protect the safety and security of the Services. FBG does not capture, receive, obtain, or otherwise store your biometric information, but instead uses a third party service provider.  Depending on your state of residence, such service provider may either be Socure or IDVerse.  For more information on how our vendor, Socure, uses, discloses, destroys, and safeguards your biometric information, and the length of time for which Socure stores your biometric information, please review the Socure Privacy Statement, available at socure.com/privacy.  For further information on how our vendor, IDVerse, uses, discloses, destroys, and safeguards your biometric information, and the length of time for which IDVerse stores your biometric information, please review the IDVerse Privacy Policy, available at https://idverse.com/privacy-policy/.  If you have questions, please contact us at the information below or reach out to the vendor directly regarding their treatment of biometric information.  Please note that if you choose not to provide your biometric information, you may not be able to use the Services.

If you choose to use facial or fingerprint scans to access your account through our mobile application, please see your device provider’s policies for information regarding collection, use, retention and storage of such information.  

  1. Betting and Gaming (Including Casino)

You must provide certain information to use our betting and gaming Services. This information may include:

  1. Name and address;
  2. Phone Number;
  3. Age;
  4. Geolocation, including precise geolocation information;
  5. A scan or other image of driver’s license or other ID card;
  6. Social Security number;      
  7. Information about your sportsbook transactions, including the time, amount wagered, event wagered on, and results; and     
  8. If available, information about your casino transactions, including the games played, time, amount wagered, and results.

Some of this information, including precise geolocation, biometric information, Social Security number, and images of ID cards, is sensitive personal information.

In addition to the purposes described in the How We Use Your Personal Information section above, we gather this information to verify your identity and that you are located in a state that permits betting and gaming Services, as well as for tax, payment, reporting, and related obligations. We may also use your information to record your results, notify you about events or games you may have an interest in, inform you about promotions, collect fees, and receive and process disputes.

You will not be able to use betting and gaming services without location data being turned on.  Where we collect precise geolocation data to enable betting and gaming Services, we will use that data to verify your eligibility to place bets or wagers, process payments, perform analytics, and for purposes of legal and regulatory compliance.

  1. Streaming

In connection with our streaming offering, we may disclose your Personal Information to partners and content licensors, like the NFL, Genius, and Sportsradar, who may be involved in providing video content that you may access through the Services.

  1. As required by law or otherwise as directed by you.

We may also disclose any Personal Information, including sensitive personal information as required by gaming regulators and oversight agencies or boards (including integrity monitoring associations) who have the lawful right to seek such information in connection with regulating us and our business practices under applicable state law or regulations.

If you, to the extent permitted by applicable law, give third parties access to credentials for your betting and gaming account for purposes of account aggregation and analysis, you are authorizing them to access any information available to you in your account, and therefore directing us to make that data available to them. Do not provide third parties with credentials to your account if you do not intend to authorize such access, or if such provision of credentials is not permitted by applicable law.  

  1. In-person Interactions

In addition to online interactions, we may also collect information from you in-person, such as in our retail locations.  During these offline interactions, we may collect the following types of information about your:

  1. Name, phone number, address, and email address;
  2. Commercial information about the products and services you have purchased or the products that are interested in;
  3. Government identification information to confirm age and identity;
  4. Information about your transactions, including the time, amount spent or wagered, item purchased or event wagered on, and results; and
  5. Other information you choose to provide in your communications with us.

In addition to the purposes described in the How We Use Your Personal Information section above, we use this information to respond to your questions, concerns, and requests, to better understand your preferences, and to market to you.

  1. Text Messaging

We may have a text messaging program to send you informational and marketing text messages about or in connection with our products, Services, Properties, and events. To receive these messages, you must voluntarily provide your phone number and agree to receive such text messages. If you do, we may collect the following information about you:

  1. Name and phone number

We may collect the following information through the Refer a Friend program:

  1. Your and your friend’s name and email address.
  2. Information about your preferences and interactions with our Services.

You and any friends you refer may opt out of the Refer-a-Friend program by contacting us using the information in the Contact Us section.

  1. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our Properties (and authorized third parties) use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about you, your device, and how you interact with our Properties. This section contains additional information about:

  1. Types of Cookies and Similar Technologies We Use

Our Properties and the third parties that we authorize may use the following technologies:

  1. Cookies, which are a type of technology that install a small amount of information on a user's computer or other device when they visit a website. Some cookies exist only during a single session and some are persistent over multiple sessions over time. 
  2. Pixels, web beacons, and tags, which are types of code or transparent graphics that contain a unique identifier. In addition to the uses described below, these technologies provide analytical information about the user experience and help us customize our marketing activities. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user's computer hard drive, pixels, web beacons, and tags are embedded invisibly on web pages and other digital properties, such as emails.
  3. Session replay tools, which record your interactions with our Properties, such as how you move throughout our Properties and engage with our webforms. In addition to the uses described below, this information helps us improve our Properties and identify and fix technical issues visitors may be having with our Properties.
  4. Embedded scripts and SDKs, which allow us to build and integrate custom apps and experiences, some of which may be developed by a third party.
  1. Purposes for Using These Technologies

We and authorized third parties use these technologies for those purposes described in this Privacy Notice, which may include:

  1. Personalization, such as remembering user preferences, login details and browsing behavior; tracking your activity across online properties and platforms over time to better understand your preferences and interests; and personalizing online content;
  2. Improving performance, such as maintaining and improving the performance of our Properties and Services;
  3. Analytics, such as analyzing how our websites are used. For example, we may use Google Analytics to help us improve our Properties, performance and user experiences.  Google Analytics may use cookies and tracking technologies to perform their services.  To learn how Google Analytics collects and processes data, please visit: “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps” located at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners; and
  4. Advertising, such as providing you with offers that may be of interest to you; conducting targeted advertising to you on our Properties and those of third parties; and measuring the effectiveness of our communications with you and advertising campaigns, including identifying how and when you engage with our communications.
  1. Information Collected

These technologies collect data about you and your device, such as your IP address, location (both approximate and precise), cookie ID, device ID, AdID, operating system, browser used, browser history, search history, and information about how you interact with our Properties (such as pages on our Properties that you have viewed).

  1. Disclosures of Your Information

We may disclose information to third parties or allow third parties to directly collect information using these technologies on our Properties, such as social media companies, advertising networks, companies that provide analytics including ad tracking and reporting, security providers, and others that help us operate our business and Properties.

  1. Tracking Technologies

Like many other websites and applications, we may automatically collect certain information regarding our Services' users. Such information may include, without limitation, the IP address (which may be used to determine your geographic location) of your computer/internet service provider, your device ID, your zip code, the date and time you access the Services, the Internet address of a referring website, the operating system you are using, the sections or pages of the Services that you visit, and the images and content viewed.  We collect information using tools such as cookies, web beacons, pixels, tags, embedded scripts, session replay tools, SDKs, and tracking technologies (collectively, “Tracking Technologies”), some of which are further described below.

You can refuse or delete cookies using your browser settings. If you refuse or delete cookies, some of our Properties’ functionality may be impaired. Please refer to your browser’s Help instructions to learn more about how to manage cookies and the use of tracking technologies. If you change computers, devices, or browsers; use multiple computers, devices, or browsers; or delete your cookies, you may need to repeat this process for each computer, device, or browser. Opting out of interest-based advertising will not opt you out of all advertising, but rather only interest-based advertising from us or our agents or representatives.

  1. Interest-Based Advertising

We may use information we collect (alone or in combination with information provided by third parties and service providers) to deliver targeted advertising (about us or other third party products and services) to you when you interact with our Services or other websites. Information about you (such as email address) as well as cookies and similar technologies (described above) may be used in this process. For example, if you are searching for information on a particular team in connection with a purchase or wager, we may use that information to cause an advertisement to appear on other websites you view. We may, now or in the future, have the ability to engage in “cross-device matching” to display targeted advertisements to you across browsers and devices (as described in Section 6 above).

 

To further clarify, we partner with third parties that collect information across various channels, including offline and online, for purposes of delivering more relevant advertising to you or your business. Our partners may place or recognize a cookie on your computer, device, or directly in our emails/communications, and we may disclose personal information to them if you have submitted such information to us, such as your name, postal address, email address, or device ID. Our partners use this information to recognize you across different channels and platforms, including but not limited to, computers, mobile devices, and smart TVs, over time for advertising, analytics, attribution, and reporting purposes.

If you would like to opt-out of these interest-based advertisements please see the Your Choices section below.

  1. Data Retention

 

We will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we have outlined above unless we are required to do otherwise by applicable law. This includes, for example, retaining your personal information to provide you with the products or services you have requested and interact with you; maintain our business relationship with you; improve our business over time; ensure the ongoing legality, safety and security of our Services and relationships; or otherwise in accordance with our internal retention procedures.

  1. Third-Party Websites and Social Media Services

  1. Third-Party Websites. The Services may contain links to other websites or Internet resources. When you click on one of those links, you are contacting another website or Internet resource. We have no responsibility or liability for, or control over, those other websites or resources or their collection, use and disclosure of your information, and this Privacy Notice does not apply to personal information collected through those websites or resources. We suggest that you read the privacy policy and terms of use of each such website.
  2. Social Media, Widgets and Open Forums. Our Services may allow you to engage with social media services, such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram ("Social Networks"), and widgets such as the "Share this" button, or interactive mini-programs that run on our Services or which link from Social Networks to our Services ("Social Functions"). These Social Functions may access, collect, and integrate with your Social Network accounts and information. For example, these Social Functions may collect your IP address, identify which page you are visiting on our Services, or set a cookie. Social Functions may also be used to register you as a Services user. For example, if you are not currently registered as a Website user and you use certain Social Functions, you will be asked to enter your Social Network credentials and then be given the option to register and join the Website. If you choose to use these Social Functions, you may be sharing certain Social Network profile elements with us, including your name, birthday (month/day), comments, contacts, email address, photos, or favorite teams. This sharing is subject to each Social Network's own privacy policy and terms of use. We do not control those Social Networks or your profiles on those services. Nor do we modify your privacy settings on those services or establish rules about how your personal information on those services will be used. Social Functions are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our Services. Your interactions with them are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing them. Please refer to the privacy settings in your Social Network account to manage the data that is shared with us through your account. Information you include and transmit online in a publicly accessible blog, chat room, or Social Network, or that you share in an open forum such as an in-person panel or survey, may be viewed and used by others without any restrictions. We do not control such uses of your personal information, and by using such services you assume the risk and acknowledge that the personal information provided by you may be viewed and used by us and/or third parties for any number of purposes and that the usage restrictions set forth in this Privacy Notice do not apply to such services. To request removal of your personal information from a blog, community forum or other publicly accessible part of the Services, contact us using the information in the Contact Us section. In some cases, we may not be able to remove your personal information, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so.

  1. Access, Correction or Deletion of Certain Information. Depending on your jurisdiction of residence, you may have the right to request that we provide you (i) a copy of the specific personal information we maintain about you, (ii) a copy of the categories of information we collect about you, (iii) correct your personal information, or (iv) delete certain of your personal information. You may submit such requests by emailing your request to the email address in the Contact Us section.  We will respond to your request within a reasonable time after receipt.  See Section 14 below for more information on how to exercise rights that may be available to you.
  2. Business Partner Opt-Out. If you do not want your personal information disclosed to any third party who may use such information for direct marketing purposes, then you may opt-out of such future disclosures by sending an email to the email address in the Contact Us section. However, we are not responsible for removing your personal information from the lists of any third party who has previously been provided with your information in accordance with this Privacy Notice, and any elections or privacy choices you may make with respect to receipt of certain types of e-mails or marketing communications from us will not apply to any such third parties. You should directly contact any third parties that send you communications with respect to choices that they may make available to you with respect to such communications.
  3. Do Not Track Signals. Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected on our websites for third-party purposes, and that is why we provide the variety of opt-out mechanisms described in this Privacy Notice. Some web browsers offer users a “Do Not Track” privacy preference setting in the web browser. Due to technical limitations, the Services do not currently respond to or honor browser-initiated Do Not Track signals. Learn more about Do Not Track.
  4. Interest-Based Advertising. To provide you with a more relevant and interesting experience, we may work with third party companies to display ads or customize the content on the website and on other websites. Some of these third parties may participate in Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") and Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI") programs, which provide mechanisms for you to opt out of interest-based advertising performed by participating members at www.aboutads.info and optout.networkadvertising.org. Opting out of interest-based advertising will not opt you out of all advertising, but rather only interest-based advertising from us or our agents or representatives.
  5. Location Data Opt-Out. In some cases, you may also adjust the settings on your personal device or mobile device to allow or restrict the sharing of location information. For example, the "location" permissions on your personal device or mobile device may allow you to elect whether to never share location information with us, to share location information only while you are using the Services or always share location information even if you are not using the Services. If you elect to not share your location information, you may be unable to access certain features of our Services related to wagering. Also, in the event that you prevent the sharing of location information, we may still estimate your general location based on the IP address you use to access Services other than those that enable wagering.
  1. Security of Your Personal Information

We use reasonable security measures to protect the confidentiality of the personal information submitted to us both during transmission and after we receive it.

  1. Children’s Privacy

We are committed to the preservation of online privacy for all of our visitors, including children. We sell products and provide services intended for purchase by adults (i.e., those 21 and older and of lawful betting age). If you engage with our Services, you are representing that you are an adult lawfully permitted to engage with our Services. We will not knowingly collect any personal information from minors or those under the age of 21 without the consent of that child's parent or guardian. If you are under the age of 21, you are not authorized to use the Services. If we become aware that personal information from an individual under age 21 has been collected, we will use all reasonable efforts to delete such information from our database. To notify us if you believe that we have information for an individual under 21 or a minor without parental consent, please contact us using the information in the Contact Us section.
