ENHANCED VIEWING SERVICE AND AUTOMATED CONTENT RECOGNITION Where available, we offer an Enhanced Viewing Service (“EV Service”) that, where available and when activated, adjusts your sound and video quality based on what you are watching in real time and provides you with useful, interactive features, content recommendations, and personalized advertisements. This is an optional service that you must opt-in to via your Device during the initial setup or any time after within the Device’s “Settings” menu. From the Settings menu, you may also choose to enable all, some, or none of Enhanced Viewing Service’s features. Please be noted that the EV service is not available in all regions worldwide nor in all models of Device. It may not currently be available on your Device. The EV Service uses Automated Content Recognition (“ACR”) technology, which works by analyzing and matching onscreen audio sounds that come from your Device (such as a TV show’s dialogue or a movie streaming from an app or music playing during a commercial) against an extensive database of programming content. When the content is recognized, we can use this ACR data for content recommendations, advertising, and where available, to automatically optimize your picture quality based on the type of content you are watching (e.g., optimizing the picture mode to watch sports versus a movie). Through the EV service and ACR technology, we may collect and use data from your Device, including: device and usage information; log data about your use of Applications and services; user ID or other identifiers; your Device’s IP address; product registration data; geolocation or information that can be used to derive geolocation; your Device viewing history; behavioral and demographic information; and your general device location (together, “Viewing Data”). If you opt-in to the EV Service, we may collect and use your Viewing Data even if the EV Service is not currently available on your Device. Viewing Data will be used to help our advertising partner Nexxen Inc. and its partners select, deliver, and measure personalized ads shown to you on your Smart TV or other linked devices sharing the same IP address, based on audience segmentation created from your viewing habits. By giving your consent to personalized ad targeting, you therefore also allow Nexxen Inc. to use your household IP address to identify other devices linked to you or your household for such advertising purposes. If you do not consent to personalized ads, you will still see ads, but they may not be as interesting to you. For more information, including regarding how Nexxen Inc. may share your data with its partners for such purposes, please review Nexxen ’s privacy policy (available at: https://nexxen.com/services-privacy-policy/). You can also see each partner and how they may use data about you and your household at https://nexxen.com/acr-data-partners/ . We use and may share this information for the purpose of delivering to you the EV Service, device-specific viewing recommendations, and serving relevant advertising. You may opt-in or opt-out of EV Service at any time through the Device’s “Settings” menu. For more information, including details on the technical aspects of the EV Service and ACR data, please see our Enhanced Viewing Service Privacy Notice. 7.

NOTICE TO RESIDENTS OF CERTAIN STATES IN THE UNITED STATES This section advises residents of the United States who reside in states that have a comprehensive consumer privacy law currently in effect. This section describes how residents of such states, including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Oregon, Texas, Utah and Virginia, may exercise rights under the consumer privacy laws applicable to their state of residence (“U.S. State Privacy Laws”). The definition of “personal information” depends on the applicable law in your U.S. State Privacy Law state. For purposes of this section, “personal information” is any data that identifies or makes an individual identifiable. Personal information does not include information that is publicly available, deidentified or aggregated, or otherwise excluded from the scope of applicable U.S. State Privacy Laws. Privacy rights include the following: (a) Right to Know/Access. You may have the right to obtain a copy, or a list of categories of the personal information that we hold about you, as well as other supplementary information, such as the purposes of processing, and the entities to whom we disclose your personal information. (b) Right to Correct. You may have the right to correct any of your personal information in our records and systems that is inaccurate. (c) Right to Delete. Under certain circumstances, you may have the right to request that we delete the personal information that we hold about you.

In addition, in the event your deletion request is honored, we may retain a record of your deletion request as required under applicable laws and their exceptions. (d) Right to Portability. You may have the right to receive a copy of the personal information we have collected about you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

Under some state privacy laws’ broad definition of “sell”, this could be considered a sale, and it could be considered “sharing” of your personal information for targeted, cross-context behavioral advertising purposes. You have the right to direct us not to sell your personal information to third parties, and to direct us not to share or use your personal information for targeted advertising purposes. To exercise your right to opt-out, please submit a request by clicking on the “Do Not Sell/Share My Personal Information” link within the settings menu of your Device or Service, or by emailing us as described in the “Contact Us” section below. Please note that you may still receive generalized ads after opting out of targeted advertising. (f) Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information. If you are a California resident, to the extent your sensitive personal information, as that term is defined under California privacy law, is used to infer characteristics about you, you have the right to object to our processing of your sensitive personal information. We do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics about you. (g) Right to Opt-Out of Automated Decision-making or Profiling. You may have the right not to be subject to a decision which significantly impacts your rights that is based solely on automated processing (where a decision is taken about you using an electronic system without human involvement).
