Privacy Policy | e.Republic

Last Updated April 28, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how e.Republic collects and treats information online through erepublic.com and other websites or online channels we own or operate (collectively, the “Site”), as well as other services we offer. Here is an overview of our privacy practices:

This Privacy Policy explains how e.Republic processes “Personal Information,” meaning information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household. Please read this Privacy Policy in its entirety to understand how we collect and use Personal Information.
Personal Information is usually described in categories, for example identifiers (e.g., name, email, username), employment information, non-public education information, legally protected information, sensitive information (e.g., ID number, financial information, health data, information about children), commercial history (online shopping, past orders), internet activity, or inferences drawn from Personal Information to create a consumer profile. e.Republic does not collect sensitive information.
e.Republic is a data broker. We maintain our registrations with state agencies as required by applicable law.
e.Republic collects Personal Information from clients and contacts who register with us and anyone who uses our Services.
Some of the data e.Republic processes are obtained from publicly available government records.
When we process Personal Information for our clients, we act as a data processor or service provider to the client. Please contact the client if you have privacy questions related to the client’s use of e.Republic’s Services.
When we process Personal Information for our own purposes (like marketing our services), we act as a data controller or “business”, as those terms are used in privacy laws. e.Republic will directly respond to your questions and privacy requests related to this processing.
e.Republic does not knowingly collect Personal Information from anyone under age 18, and we will delete that information if we learn we have collected it. If you believe we have received information from someone under age 18 or other unauthorized information, please contact privacy@erepublic.com.
You consent to our practices described in this Privacy Policy by accessing our Site or any other Services, or by providing e.Republic with your Personal Information or allowing us to process your Personal Information after being made aware that it has been included in our system. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, do not access or use our Services.
You can update your privacy preferences or exercise your privacy rights by submitting this form.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to data that is not protected under privacy laws. As such, publicly available information and data that is anonymized, deidentified, or in aggregate format is not covered by this Privacy Policy.
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, please contact privacy@erepublic.com.

How does e.Republic collect and use Personal Information?

e.Republic collects Personal Information from clients, contacts, and Site visitors with their consent, with a legitimate interest, or as authorized or required by law. The information collected may include identifiers, employment information, commercial history, or internet activity, among other categories of data. We only collect, use, retain, and disclose Personal Information as is adequate and relevant to the specific, express purposes described below or as reasonably necessary and proportionate to provide our Services or for other purposes that we disclose to you and are compatible with the context of how we collected your Personal Information.

e.Republic collects Personal Information from:

Publicly available data. e.Republic collects the data used to develop and provide our Services from publicly available government records.
Contact registrations. When you sign up for an e.Republic product, such as magazines, events, webinars, papers, and newsletters, we collect personal and demographic data such as name, title, company, phone, email, address and job function. You may also select a username and password. As a contact in our system, you may choose to provide additional Personal Information to fill out a profile with e.Republic. We collect this information with your consent, and we use it to provide you with the Services you request and to analyze how you use our Services. We will also collect data related to your commercial and order history with us to fulfill your subscriptions or provide event materials, downloads, or emails and to otherwise facilitate your use of the Services. This information may be stored for backup and analysis in a Client Relationship System (CRM) system and secure cloud servers. e.Republic uses a payment processor to collect payment information. This information is collected with consent of the client and used to provide the requested Services.
Your communications with us. If you request information about our Services, we will collect your name, email address, and other contact information through an online form, email, or other Site feature with your consent and we will use it to provide you with the information you request. By including Personal Information in your communication to e.Republic, you consent to this processing. If you do not want us to process your Personal Information, please omit it from your communication to e.Republic.

Additionally, if you opt-in to receive marketing communications from e.Republic, we may use the Personal Information in these communications to send you marketing messages about e.Republic and the Services we offer. If you opt out of our marketing, we will not use your Personal Information for marketing purposes.

Automatically from your Site visit, with a legitimate interest. We automatically collect details about your interactions through the Site, including your (i) browsing history; (ii) content interactions, including which of our emails you open and links you click from those emails and the Site; (iii) device information (e.g., IP address, operating system, browser type, device ID, mobile network information, caller ID); (iv) usage details (e.g., traffic data, communication data and the features or resources you access and use); and (v) stored information (e.g., metadata). Like most commercial online services, we use cookies and other technologies to track how visitors interact with the Site (see How does e.Republic use cookies). This data helps us to analyze the effectiveness of our Services, such as helping our writers and advertisers measure the effectiveness of their content and understand our audience.
Advertising and Analytics Partners. To support these activities, we may share personal information with advertising and analytics partners, such as social media platforms, search engines, and marketing service providers. These partners may use cookies, pixels, device identifiers, hashed contact information (such as email addresses), or similar technologies to help deliver and measure advertisements. These activities may be considered cross-context behavioral advertising or targeted advertising under certain privacy laws.
How We Use Information for Advertising. We may use personal information to support our marketing and advertising efforts, including targeted advertising. This means we may use information about your interactions with our websites, products, or services to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you. We may also use personal information to create audience segments and models, including lookalike or similar audiences, to help us reach individuals who may be interested in our services.
e.Republic might also use your Personal Information to (i) monitor your compliance with any of your agreements with us; (ii) protect your privacy and enforce this Privacy Policy; (iii) if we believe it is necessary, to identify, contact, or bring legal action against persons or entities who may be causing injury to you, to us, or to others; (iv) comply with a law, regulation, legal process, or court order; or (v) fulfill any other purpose to which you consent.

e.Republic will not collect additional categories of Personal Information or use already collected Personal Information for purposes that are materially different, unrelated, or not reasonably necessary or compatible with the original purpose without notice and consent to you as required by law.

How is this information disclosed and to whom?

e.Republic will only disclose Personal Information to the third parties described in this section, with your permission, or as required by law.

Our Sponsors. When you register with e.Republic, you will be asked if we may share your registration information with our sponsors. For example, a registration form may provide a notice that: “Registration information is shared with our sponsors, and by registering you agree to receive communications from our sponsors.” If you register or otherwise consent or opt-in to this sharing, e.Republic may disclose your Personal Information from your registration to the identified sponsor(s). Sponsors receive your name, title, company, department, phone, address, email, and data about your registration, such as the date and name of the item for which you registered. Each client decides how to use the data we provide, and which leads to pursue according to the client’s own privacy practices.
Service Providers. Our third-party service providers (e.g., print subscription fulfillment, data analytics, customer support, email message deployment, and payment processors) may have access to your Personal Information to fulfil their contractual obligations to us. For example, we share your postal address with the US Postal Service to mail your print subscription to one of our magazines. The type of information that we disclose to a service provider will depend on the service that they provide to us. Our service providers are subject to contractual agreements that protect your Personal Information, and we require all service providers to maintain confidentiality standards and organizational measures to ensure the security of your Personal Information. Our service providers are prohibited from selling or disclosing the Personal Information we provide. A current list of sub-processors that may process personal information on our behalf is available here.
Other Third Parties, as permitted by applicable law. For example: if we go through a business transition (e.g., merger, acquisition, or sale of a portion of our assets); to comply with a legal requirement or a court order; when we believe it is appropriate to take action regarding illegal activities or prevent fraud or harm to any person; to exercise or defend our legal claims; or for any other reason with your consent.
Law enforcement, and other governmental agencies, at our sole discretion in connection with an investigation of any matter that is illegal or that could expose e.Republic or our affiliates or subsidiaries to liability.
Aggregated and De-Identified Information. e.Republic reserves the right to disclose aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified information about any individuals with non-affiliated entities for research, product development, marketing, or other purposes, without restriction.

How long is this information retained?

We retain Personal Information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including while an account remains active, to maintain historical records and support analytics and business operations, or as required to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our agreements. For example, personal Information associated with a client’s account is retained while that account remains active or until a client request that their information is deleted. When we have no further legitimate business need to process Personal Information, we will delete, de-identify, or anonymize it. We reserve the right to retain Personal Information for longer periods if necessary to comply with legal or contractual obligations.

You can control your Personal Information and privacy selections related to our Services.

You do not have to provide e.Republic with any Personal Information to view content offered on our Site. Much of our content is available without registering or subscribing. Opting not to provide certain personal information when requested means that you may not be able to access some areas of our website.

In these cases, we act as a service provider only, and our client is responsible for how it uses your Personal Information. We cannot fulfill a request related to our client’s use of your Personal Information.

What are my privacy rights?

This section provides general notices under applicable federal and state privacy laws that require companies to inform consumers about their privacy rights and provide a method to exercise those rights. Residents of states offering privacy protections (each a “Consumer”) may have some or all the privacy rights described in the Notice of Privacy Rights.

To submit a privacy-related request, please submit a Your Digital Privacy form or email privacy@erepublic.com with your full name and contact information. e.Republic will fulfill your request if we hold Personal Information about you and as required by applicable law.

e.Republic only offers and markets the Services in the United States. e.Republic does not intentionally target or direct the Services to anyone outside of the United States. If you visit our website or interact with our Services from outside the United States, you do so at your own risk and you alone are responsible for confirming that your use of our Services complies with the laws that apply to you. Any Personal Information collected from individuals outside the United States will be processed in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable U.S. laws.

Right to Deletion. You may request that we delete the Personal Information that we collected and retained, with certain exceptions. e.Republic may permanently delete, deidentify, or aggregate Personal Information in response to a request for deletion.

To opt-out, please submit a Your Digital Privacy form or email privacy@erepublic.com with your full name, email address, and contact information.
Limited Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information. Some state privacy laws allow consumers to limit a business’s use of their sensitive Personal Information to specific purposes. e.Republic does not process sensitive Personal Information and will not disclose sensitive Personal Information for the purpose of inferring characteristics about a Consumer or for other purposes without the Consumer’s consent. If this changes in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide you with methods to opt-out or limit our use and disclosure of sensitive Personal Information.
No Automated Profiling or Automated Decision-Making. e.Republic may use artificial intelligence or other automated technologies to generate promotional content. However, e.Republic only uses these technologies with a human-in-the-loop and e.Republic does not process your Personal Information to evaluate, analyze, or predict your interests and preferences or otherwise use automated decision-making or profiling to produce legal or significant effects that concern you. If this changes in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide you with a method to opt out.

Certain laws may limit the number or frequency of requests we must fulfill.

For example, unless permitted by law we will not: (i) deny you goods or services; (ii) charge you different prices or rates for goods or services; (iii) provide you a different level or quality of goods or services; (iv) retaliate against you as an employee, applicant for employment, or independent contractor for exercising your privacy rights; or (v) suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services, because you exercised a right under applicable privacy laws.
Health Data Rights. e.Republic does not collect any health data.

How does e.Republic keep this information secure?

e.Republic has implemented and maintains reasonable and appropriate security procedures and practices to help protect your Personal Information from unauthorized or illegal access, destruction, use, modification, or disclosure.

Access to Personal Information is limited to employees and contractors as needed to perform their job functions. Anyone with this access is subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations. We also ensure that our employees, contractors, and agents responsible for handling privacy inquiries are informed of applicable legal requirements and we restrict access to those who need that information to process it.

What about third-party links?

e.Republic may provide links to third-party websites or allow you to link to our Services from social media.
