The Sites, and the information on them, are intended for New Zealand residents only, although
others are welcome to visit the Sites. Non-New Zealand residents who visit a Site do so of their
own initiative and are responsible for obeying their local laws. New Zealand law governs the Sites and these Terms. If you are a business using a Site, then you agree that the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 does
not apply to your use of the Site or your reliance on the Site.

● you have the right to make the Material available to Warner Bros. Discovery;
● you grant Warner Bros. Discovery a perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sub-licensable
right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative

copyright, moral and publicity rights with respect to the Material worldwide and/or to
incorporate the Material in other works in any media now known or later developed for the
full term of any rights that may exist in the Material (including the right to exploit the
Material);
● you have obtained any required clearances in relation to the Material (including any
● required consents/releases of people appearing in the Material);
● the Material does not infringe any law and is not defamatory in any way.

If you do not want to grant to Warner Bros. Discovery the rights set out above, do not submit the
Material. You indemnify Warner Bros. Discovery against all legal fees, damages and other
expenses that may be incurred by Warner Bros. Discovery as a result of your breach of the
above declaration.

specific rules or terms will apply if there is any inconsistency with these rules.

Warner Bros. Discovery will not be liable for any damages (direct, incidental, special, consequential, indirect or punitive) resulting from the use of (or inability to use) the Sites. You agree that if held responsible for any damage or loss, Warner Bros. Discovery's total liability to you for all damages, losses, and causes of action (whether in contract, tort - including but not limited to negligence - or otherwise) will not exceed the amount paid by you, if any, for accessing the relevant Site. You use the Sites at your own risk. The Sites may not always be available, for example, during maintenance or repair. Warner Bros.

The information is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, completeness, correctness, timeliness or fitness for any particular purpose.

Privacy Notice

Discovery NZ Limited and its related entities (“Warner Bros. Discovery”) operate a number of
websites, social media sites and apps in New Zealand, including threenow.co.nz and
discoverycorporate.co.nz (each a “Site”).
Your privacy is really important to us. This Privacy Notice details how we capture and use your

How will we use your information?
In addition to using your information to provide you with content, products, services, tailored and
personalised recommendations, and general account management, and the management of
traffic across our network of Sites, we may also use your information in the following ways:

How do we disclose your personal information?

COOKIES & TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES NOTICE
Our Sites will place a cookie on the hard drive of your internet protocol device. A "cookie" is a file,
which allows us to track the interests of users. While we recommend that users enable cookies on
their browsers, the decision remains in the hands of the individual. (The management of cookies
will be different depending on each user's internet protocol device - refer to your browser help
menu for further information).

Use of Cookies
We use cookies for a number of reasons:
● For statistical purposes to track how many individual unique users we have and how often
they visit our website. We collect data listing which of our pages are most frequently
visited and by which types of users and from which countries.
● We use third parties to collect anonymous user information including through the use of
cookies (flash and non-flash) and web beacons. Visit
http://www.nielsen.com/digitalprivacy#how to learn more information about how we use a
third party service to collect and use information on our Sites.
● Both Warner Bros. Discovery and third party advertisers will generate cookies to collect
statistical data such as whether a user has seen an advertisement and if so, how long
ago, how many users have seen an advertisement and how many users have seen it
more than once.
● Placing cookies on your computer means we can serve you adverts that you might be
more interested in, and allows us to control the number of times you see them and
measure how effective the ad campaign has been. This helps us to keep the Sites free of
charge.

You can turn cookies off but if you do this you may not be able to use as many services on our
Sites and you might see more pop-ups and other intrusive advertising, as we won't be able to limit
what you see using cookies. You will however still be able to view editorial content.
By using this Site you are agreeing to the use of cookies as described.

Use of Browser fingerprinting
We may use browser fingerprinting when a third party wishes to accurately track its advertising
conversion without using cookies. The technique uses the characteristics of your browser to
uniquely identify your computing device but not you as an individual, and hence it is not used to
target advertising at an individual. Browse fingerprinting cannot be controlled by user configured
browser settings in the same way as cookies. By using this Site you are agreeing to the use of
browser fingerprinting as described.

Personalised Advertising
Warner Bros. Discovery currently delivers Online Behavioural Advertising (OBA). OBA allows us
to deliver targeted advertising to visitors to our Sites. OBA works by showing you adverts which
are based on the type of content you have been reading, and delivering adverts which we believe
may be of interest to you.
As you browse our Sites one of the cookies we place on your computer will be an advertising
cookie so we can understand what sort of pages you're interested in. Some of our partners prefer 
to use browser fingerprinting instead of cookies to uniquely identify your device to improve the
accuracy of their advertising billing.
This information we collect about your computer enables us to group you with other computers
who have shown similar interests. We can then display advertising to you which is based on these
interests. For instance if you have been reading a lot of food and drink articles we may decide to
show you more adverts based on food and drink.
Behavioural retargeting is another form of OBA which enables us and some of our advertising
partners to show you ads based on your online reading away from Warner Bros. Discovery
websites. For example, if you have visited the website of an online clothes shop you may start
seeing ads from that same shopping site displaying special offers or showing you the products
that you were browsing. This allows companies to advertise to website visitors who leave their
website without making a purchase.
We may also want to share behavioural data with other websites. This may mean that when you
are on other websites you are served advertising based on your behaviour on our Sites, and on
our Sites you may be served advertising based on your behaviour on other sites.
If you want to opt out of receiving OBA this does not mean that you will no longer receive
advertising when you are using this Site. It just means that the advertising you see will not be
customised to you.

Opting out of cookies
Our Sites use Google DoubleClick technology and cookies to serve interest based advertising.
DoubleClick offers consumers the opportunity to select a persistent opt-out cookie to prevent
information from being uniquely associated with their browsers. This way, a user can opt out of
DoubleClick's cookies without erasing or altering other cookies associated with a browser.
To opt out of DoubleClick cookies, a user can go to https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb,
and click on the ‘Opt out’ button. The user can verify the opt-out process by checking that the
doubleclick.net cookie used in the browser reads "id=opt_out". This opt-out procedure must be
performed for all browser versions on all of the computers that an individual uses.
