The following privacy policy governs our online collection of information
from you. This privacy policy, including our children’s privacy statement,
does not apply to any information you may provide to us or that we may collect
offline and/or through other means; for example, at a live event, via telephone,
or through the mail. We may collect and store information, personal or otherwise,
that you voluntarily supply to us online as part of the Service. We also collect
and store information that is generated automatically as users navigate online
through the Service. Unless you inform us otherwise, Reno Gazette-Journal
reserves the right to use, and to disclose to third parties, information collected
from you while you are using the Service (e.g., your name and e-mail address)
for a variety of reasons and purposes, such as providing users with information
about products and services. If you do not wish to be included in such uses,
you must send an e-mail or a letter to us requesting to be taken off any lists
of information that may be used for these purposes or that may be given or
sold to third party vendors.
In addition, please keep in
mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online, for
example on message boards, through email, or in chat areas, that information
can be collected and used by others besides Reno Gazette-Journal. Reno Gazette-Journal
cannot be responsible for any unauthorized third party use of information
that you disclose online.
We use "cookies" in
a limited way to help deliver advertisements and to identify unique browsers
that visit us and to track usage throughout our site. Some of our business
affiliates and advertisers use cookies, which can be used to tell when your
computer has contacted a web site. Because we do not control the privacy policies
of our business affiliates, advertisers or any other sites to which we may
provide hyperlinks, you should check the privacy policy of the site you are
visiting if you have any concerns about that site’s use of cookies or
about that site’s use of your information.
We also make some content, products
and services available through our Service through cooperative relationships
with third party providers, where the brands of our provider partner appear
prominently on the Service. We may share with our provider partner any information
you provide, or that is collected, in the course of visiting any pages that
are made available in cooperation with our provider partner. In some cases,
the provider partner may collect information from you directly, in which cases
the privacy policy of our provider partner may apply to the provider partner’s
use of your information. The privacy policy of our provider partners may differ
from ours. If you have any questions regarding the privacy policy of one of
our provider partners, you should contact the provider directly for more information.
We are an affiliate of the CareerBuilder
online careers service. Through our cooperative relationship with CareerBuilder,
we are able to provide you with access to the CareerBuilder products and services
through a co-branded CareerBuilder site. Because of this relationship, CareerBuilder
requests that we post the following language regarding our co-branded CareerBuilder
site in our privacy policy: “You may have arrived at this Web site by
following a link from a CareerBuilder newspaper affiliate or other affiliate.
If so, please be aware that CareerBuilder may share your information with
that affiliate and the affiliate may use the information consistent with its
privacy policy instead of this one.”
Be aware that we may occasionally
release information about our visitors when release is appropriate to comply
with law, to enforce our Terms of Service agreement, or to protect the rights,
property or safety of users of our Services, the public, or Reno Gazette-Journal.
Please also note that as our
business grows, we may buy or sell various assets. In the unlikely event that
we, some or all of our assets, or one or more of our websites is acquired

Reno Gazette-Journal is not responsible for the quality, accuracy, timeliness,

that merchant’s online store or site, and the information that you give
as part of the transaction, such as your credit card number and contact information,
is collected by the merchant. A merchant may have separate privacy and data
collection practices. Reno Gazette-Journal has no responsibility or liability
for these independent policies. For more information regarding a merchant,
its online store, and its privacy policies, return to that merchant's home
