The Services and Sites may contain links to other websites that are not operated by us. Therefore, please keep in mind that when you provide any information to us on a third-party website or platform, any information you provide may be separately collected by the third-party website or platform. We are not responsible for the practices employed by any websites or services linked to or from the services, including the information or content contained within them. Your browsing and interaction on any other website or service are subject to the applicable third party’s rules and policies, not ours. If you are using a third-party website or service, you do so at your own risk. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any site or service before providing any personal information.

The information we collect, including personal information, is covered by this Privacy Policy and the information the third-party website or platform collects is subject to the third-party platform or website’s privacy practices and, therefore, you should familiarize yourself with any applicable third-party privacy policy as needed. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third-party website, platforms or other services.

We may engage in interest-based advertising and work with third-party advertising companies to deliver targeted ads and services. These companies may collect information about your use of our online services over time to display ads on our Services, on other websites or services you visit, and across various devices you use gathered through tracking technologies such as cookies and similar tools. These technologies may recognize your device and collect data such as clickstream information, browser type, the time and date of your visits, AdID, and other related information. If your device settings allow, they may also gather location data through GPS, Wi-Fi, or other methods.

To help identify you across different devices, we may share a common account identifier (like a hashed email address or user ID) with our third-party advertising partners. This information is used to make the ads you see more relevant to your interests and to provide advertising-related services, including reporting, attribution, analytics, and market research. Additionally, we may utilize third-party services, such as social media platforms, to serve targeted ads. In such cases, we might provide a hashed version of your email address or other information to the platform provider.

  • Widgets: Our Services may incorporate social media features, such as the Facebook “Like” button, LinkedIn, Twitter, or other similar widgets.

Your interactions with these features are subject to the privacy policies of the respective social media companies.
  • Social Media Platforms: We may use social media platforms, like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, to display targeted advertisements to you. These platforms have interest-based advertising programs that let us show ads to users who have previously shown interest in our services or to groups with similar traits, such as commercial interests and demographics. We might share a unique identifier, such as a user ID or hashed email address, with these platforms, or they may collect data from our website via first-party pixels to deliver targeted ads to you or specific audiences. The handling of these ads is governed by the privacy policies of the respective social media companies. If you prefer not to receive targeted ads, you can adjust your advertising preferences through your social media settings.

To access some of these programs and offers, we may need to collect and retain personal information, as outlined in the specific disclosures for each program or offer.

Submitting Requests. Requests to exercise the Right to limit, Right of Correction and Deletion, Right to a Copy, and the Right to Information may be submitted by California residents by sending an email to [email protected].  We will respond to verifiable requests received from California consumers as required by law.

Right to Non-Discrimination, and Incentives. The CCPA prohibits discrimination against California residents for exercising their rights under the CCPA and imposes requirements on any financial incentives offered to California residents related to their Personal Information. California residents have the right to equal service by us, and we will not discriminate against any California residents if they exercise their rights under the CCPA.

Disclosure of Incentives: If businesses offer any financial incentives for the collection, sale or deletion of California residents’ Personal Information, residents have the right to be notified of any financial incentives offers and their material terms, the right not be included in such offers without prior informed opt-in consent, and the right to be able to opt-out of such offers at any time. Businesses may not offer unjust, unreasonable, coercive, or usurious financial incentives. We do not offer any financial incentives at this time.

Shine the Light: The California “Shine the Light” law gives residents of California the right under certain circumstances to request information from us regarding the manner in which we share certain categories of personal information (as defined in the Shine the Light law) with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

For Nevada Residents: If you are a resident of the State of Nevada in the United States, Chapter 603A of the Nevada Revised Statutes permits a Nevada resident to opt out of future sales of certain covered information that a website operator has collected or will collect about the resident. To submit such a request, please contact us at [email protected].

Depending on your state of residency, these Additional U.S. State Privacy Disclosures (“U.S. Privacy Disclosures”) supplement the information contained in our Privacy Policy by providing additional information about our personal information processing practices and the choices you may have with regards to the processing of your personal information. For a detailed description of how we collect, use, disclose, and otherwise process personal information in connection with our Services, please visit our Privacy Policy. Unless otherwise expressly stated, all terms defined in our Privacy Policy retain the same meaning in these U.S. Privacy Disclosures.

 

HOW TO EXERCISE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS

You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your Right to Opt Out. However, we may ask you to provide additional personal information so that we can properly identify you in our dataset and to track compliance with your opt out request. We will only use personal information provided in an opt out request to review and comply with the request. If you chose not to provide this information, we may only be able to process your request to the extent we are able to identify you in our data systems.

Please submit a request by emailing a completed attached form to [email protected].

Although we try to limit the personal information collected in connection with a request to exercise any of the above rights, certain requests may require us to obtain additional personal information from you. In certain circumstances, we may decline a request, particularly where we are unable to verify your identity or locate your information in our systems, or where you are not a resident of one of the eligible states.

 

DATA RETENTION

We retain personal information while an individual uses our Services according to this Privacy Policy. If an individual stops using our Services, we will keep their personal information as necessary to meet our legal obligations, resolve disputes, defend claims, and for any other purposes based on their choices, such as receiving marketing communications. Specifically, we retain records of conversations, personal information provided when joining our services, complaints, and other details from the duration of the individual’s contract until statutory limitation periods expire if needed for legal claims.

We keep personal information only for as long as needed to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. However, if required by legal, tax, or accounting regulations set by authorities, we may retain it for longer periods until the relevant retention periods or deadlines have passed.

In determining how long to retain personal information, we assess factors such as the data’s amount, nature, and sensitivity, the potential risks of unauthorized use or disclosure, and whether we can achieve our goals through other means. We also consider our legal, regulatory, tax, and accounting obligations.

Once personal information is no longer required for these purposes, we will either delete or deidentify it. If deletion or deidentification is not possible (e.g., if the data is in backup archives), we will securely store the information and prevent further processing until it can be deleted or deidentified.
