YOUR CHOICES WITH RESPECT TO YOUR INFORMATION

1. Under certain laws, including as described below with respect to the GDPR and CCPA, you may have the right to: obtain confirmation that we hold Personal Information about you, request access to and receive information about the Personal Information we maintain about you, receive copies of the Personal Information we maintain about you, update and correct inaccuracies in your Personal Information, object to the continued processing of your Personal Information, and have the Personal Information blocked, anonymized or deleted, as appropriate. The right to access Personal Information may be limited in some circumstances by local law, including as described above under California law. If you qualify, in order to exercise these rights, please contact us as described under “Contact Us“. Note: under certain laws, certain Device Information may qualify as Personal Information for the purposes of such laws.

2. You may opt out of promotional communications by sending us an email at the email address below under “Contact Us“. We may ask you to provide additional information for identity verification purposes or to verify that you are in possession of an applicable email account.

Security

We use commercially reasonable methods of protecting your Personal Information. Nevertheless, we cannot guarantee the safety or security of any Personal Information. Further, the transmission of Personal Information cannot be made completely secure. For that reason, you agree to transmit Personal Information to us solely at your own risk.

This section also applies to residents of Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Residents of the EEA, Switzerland and the United Kingdom are referred to here as “EEA Residents“.
  • Under the GDPR, we are the controller and processor of the Personal Information of EEA Residents. Our purpose for collecting and processing Personal Information from EEA Residents is to obtain contact information, to substantiate such information, and to provide the Services. The legal basis for collecting Personal Information is your consent. You may withdraw consent for obtaining such communications by following the “Unsubscribe” instructions on any communication or by contacting us at [email protected].

2. California Consumers

  • This section pertains to the rights of individuals or households in California (“California consumers“).
  • Under certain circumstances, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 states that, upon receipt of a request by a California consumer, a business may be required to provide detailed information regarding how that business has shared that Affiliate’s Personal Information with third parties for direct marketing purposes. However, the foregoing does not apply to businesses like ours that do not disclose Personal Information to third parties for direct marketing purposes.
  • The CCPA (California Civil Code Section 1798.100 et seq.) provides California consumers with additional rights regarding Personal Information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly with a particular consumer or household. The categories of Personal Information we collect are generally described above but differ for individual consumers depending on the services used by such consumers.
  • Under the CCPA, qualifying California consumers may have the following rights:

                      a. Right to Know and Right to Delete.

          • A California consumer has the right to request that we disclose what Personal Information we collect, use, disclose and sell. A California consumer also has the right to submit requests to delete Personal Information.
          • When we receive a valid request to know or delete from a California consumer, we will confirm receipt of the request within 10 days and provide information about how we will process the request, including our verification process. We will respond to such requests within 45 days.

                     b. Right for Disclosure of Information.

          •  A California consumer may also submit requests that we disclose specific types or categories of Personal Information that we collect.
          • Under certain circumstances, we will not provide such information, including where the disclosure creates a substantial, articulable, and unreasonable risk to the security of that Personal Information, Affiliates’ account with us, or the security of our systems or networks. We also will not disclose California consumers’ social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, or other government-issued identification numbers, financial account numbers, any health insurance or medical identification numbers, or account passwords and security questions and answers.

Verifying Requests: If we receive any request, we will use a process for online requests in which the California consumer must first clearly submit the request and then separately confirm it. We will also use other appropriate measures to verify requests received by mail or telephone.

To verify a request: a California consumer must provide a business with sufficient information to identify the consumer, such as name, e-mail address, home or work address, or other such information that is on record with us so that we can match such information to the Personal Information that we maintain. Do not provide social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, account numbers, credit or debit card numbers, medical information, or health information with requests. If requests are unclear or submitted through means other than those outlined above, we will provide the California consumer with specific directions on how to submit the request or remedy any deficiencies. If we cannot verify the identity of the requestor, we may deny the request.

3. Children under 13

We are committed to preserving online privacy for all of its website visitors, including children. Consistent with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), we do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13, and we delete any such information we become aware of. If you are a parent or guardian and you believe your child has provided us with Personal Information, please contact us at [email protected] and be sure to include in your message the same login information that your child submitted. Any discovered information is deleted promptly to align with the COPPA compliance.
