In order to provide you with the full range of MIKARI MEDIA LTD services, we are sometimes required to collect information about you.
This privacy policy explains the following:

When you sign up to participate in or receive a service from MIKARI MEDIA LTD, such as newsletters, competitions, magazine subscriptions, readers' offers, surveys, or online registration, we may ask for personal information about you. This can consist of information such as your name, e-mail address, postal address, telephone or mobile number, or date of birth. Different services or webpages may ask for different personal information.
For users under the age of 16, we will seek verifiable parental consent before collecting any personal information, as required by COPPA.

MIKARI MEDIA LTD will use your personal information for a number of purposes, including but not limited to:

• For service administration purposes: We may contact you for reasons related to the service you have signed up for, such as providing you with password reminders or notifying you about the suspension of a particular service for maintenance.

• To enable other people or businesses to carry out work on our behalf: We may share your information with third-party data processors to provide specific services, and we will ensure that they use your personal information strictly according to our instructions and not for their own business purposes.
• To inform you about our partners’ special offers or products and services that may be of interest to you: If you consent to be contacted for marketing purposes, we may send you direct marketing about special offers or products from our partners.

Generally, we will only use your information within the MIKARI MEDIA LTD Group to provide the service/product you have requested. Although this term is extended to CPI Media Group (MIKARI MEDIA LTD's parent company in the Middle East) and BBC Studios (MIKARI MEDIA LTD's global arm), we will not pass your information to other members of the group for marketing purposes unless you have consented to this.
We will only disclose your data to third-party data processors with your consent or where we need to do so to provide a service. The data processors to which we may pass your data will be CPI Media Group, BBC Studios companies, and appropriately contracted third parties. Otherwise, we will keep your information confidential except where disclosure is required or permitted by law (for example, to government bodies and law enforcement agencies) or as described in section 7: Offensive or Inappropriate Content on MIKARI MEDIA LTD’s Websites below.

MIKARI MEDIA LTD may contact you:

• In relation to the functioning of any service you have signed up for: We may need to reach out to you to ensure that MIKARI MEDIA LTD can deliver the services to you effectively.
• Where you have opted to receive newsletters or other correspondence: If you choose to receive newsletters or other updates, we will use your contact information to deliver this content to you.
• To invite you to participate in promotions, competitions, and surveys about MIKARI MEDIA LTD services: Your participation in promotions, competitions, and surveys is always voluntary, and we may use your contact information to invite you to participate.
• To carry out obligations arising from any contracts entered into between you and MIKARI MEDIA LTD: If you enter into any contractual agreement with MIKARI MEDIA LTD, we may contact you in connection with fulfilling our obligations.
• For marketing purposes where you have specifically agreed to this: If you consent to receive marketing communications, we may use your contact information to send you information about special offers, new products, or services that may be of interest to you.
• Our websites and other publications will give you detailed information about how MIKARI MEDIA LTD will contact you in relation to specific services.

MIKARI MEDIA LTD won't contact you for marketing purposes or promote new services to you unless you explicitly agree to be contacted for these purposes.
If you have previously provided consent to receive marketing communications from us but have changed your mind, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. To opt-out of marketing communications, you can use the unsubscribe link provided in our emails or contact us using the details provided in section 12 below. Once you opt-out, we will no longer send you marketing materials, but we may still contact you for non-marketing purposes as outlined in section 5.

If you post/send offensive, inappropriate, or objectionable content anywhere on a MIKARI MEDIA LTD website, or otherwise engage in any disruptive behavior, MIKARI MEDIA LTD may use your personal information to stop such behavior.
Where MIKARI MEDIA LTD reasonably believes that you are or may be in breach of the law (e.g. because content you have posted may be defamatory), MIKARI MEDIA LTD may use your personal information to inform relevant third parties such as your internet provider or law enforcement agencies about the content and your behavior.
With the absence of the comments section, message board facility, or any other similar service on the site, the moderation of these possible future modules within bbcgoodfoodme.com would be carried out by a team within MIKARI MEDIA LTD.

Protecting the privacy of children is of utmost importance to MIKARI MEDIA LTD. If you are aged under 16, please ensure that you obtain your parent/guardian's permission before providing any personal information to MIKARI MEDIA LTD. Users under the age of 16 without this consent are not allowed to provide us with their personal information.
If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under the age of 16 without appropriate parental consent, we will take steps to delete that information promptly. If you believe that we may have collected personal information from a child under 16 without proper consent, please contact us using the details provided in section 12, and we will promptly address your concerns.

We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant service or as long as is set out in any relevant contract you hold with MIKARI MEDIA LTD or MIKARI MEDIA LTD’s corporate retention schedule.
If you wish to cancel your subscription to our newsletters, you can do so by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link contained in our emails. If you change your profile to opt-out of receiving communications, your record may stay on the system so we can ensure that we do not contact you in the future.
Where you contribute to a MIKARI MEDIA LTD service or website, MIKARI MEDIA LTD will generally only keep your content for as long as is reasonably required for the purpose(s) for which it was submitted.

As a data subject, you have the right to request information about the personal data we hold about you, including the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information. If you wish to exercise your rights under COPPA, GDPR, or California Privacy Rights under California Civil Code Section 1798.83 Act, please contact us using the details provided in section 12.
To submit a data access or data deletion request, you may be required to provide proof of your identity to ensure the security and confidentiality of your personal information. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe and provide you with the requested information or take appropriate action, such as correcting or deleting your personal data, as required by applicable laws.
Please note that certain legal exemptions or constraints may apply to your rights, and we may be unable to fulfill your request in specific circumstances. If we are unable to comply with your request, we will provide you with an explanation for our decision.

Our websites may contain links to third-party websites, applications, or services that are not owned or controlled by MIKARI MEDIA LTD. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by MIKARI MEDIA LTD and does not cover the privacy practices of these third-party websites or services. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our websites and to read the privacy policies of any third-party websites or services you visit.
MIKARI MEDIA LTD does not endorse or take responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services linked to from our websites. Your interactions with these third-party websites or services are subject to their own terms and policies, and we encourage you to exercise caution and review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.

MIKARI MEDIA LTD takes the security of your personal information seriously. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard your data and protect it against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures may include encryption, access controls, secure servers, regular security assessments, and staff training on data protection.
Despite our efforts, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of your account has been compromised), please notify us immediately using the contact information provided in section 13.

MIKARI MEDIA LTD operates globally, and your personal information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries outside of your own. By using our services or providing us with your personal information, you consent to the transfer, storage, and processing of your data in countries where the data protection laws may differ from those of your country of residence.
We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you have any questions or concerns about international data transfers, please contact us using the details provided in section 14.

In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, your personal information may be transferred as part of the transaction. In such cases, we will notify you through prominent notice on our website or by sending an email to the primary email address specified in your account before your personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
We may also make changes to our business or services that could affect the way we handle your personal information. In such instances, we will update this Privacy Policy accordingly and notify you of any material changes.
