or services We provide to You
Sale of Personal Information
As defined in the CCPA/CPRA, “sell” and “sale” mean selling,
renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available,
transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by
electronic or other means, a Consumer’s personal information by
the Business to a third party for valuable consideration. This
means that We may have received some kind of benefit in return for
sharing personal information, but not necessarily a monetary
benefit.
We do not “sell” or “share” information as most people would
commonly understand these terms – meaning We do not, and will not,
disclose Your Personal Information in direct exchange for money or
some other form of payment.
We allow Our Service Providers to use Your personal information
for the business purposes described in Our Privacy Policy, for
activities such as advertising, marketing, and analytics, and
these may be deemed a “sale” under CCPA/CPRA. For example, when We
promote Our Service, We use Service Providers that market Our
Service online, measure the marketing efforts, identify users that
are interested in Our Service, etc. This is done by placing
tracking technologies on our website such as cookies, tags,
pixels, or similar, and by placing these technologies, online
identifiers and online behavior information is shared with such
vendors, including for “cross-context behavioral advertising”.
Under the CCPA, these practices are defined as “sharing” or
“selling” Personal Information.
We may disclose or may have disclosed in the last twelve (12)
months the following categories in a manner that may be considered
a “sale” or “sharing” as defined in CCPA/CPRA:
- Category A: Identifiers
-
Category B: Personal information categories listed in the
California Customer Records statute (Cal. Civ. Code §
1798.80(e))
- Category F: Internet or other similar network activity
- Category G: Geolocation data
- Category L: Sensitive personal information
Please note that the categories listed above are those defined in
the CCPA/CPRA. This does not mean that all examples of that
category of personal information were in fact sold, but reflects
our good faith belief to the best of Our knowledge that some of
that information from the applicable category may be and may have
been shared for value in return.
Retention of Personal Information
We retain California residents’ Personal Information for as long
as reasonably necessary to achieve the purposes described in this
Privacy Policy (including the purposes disclosed in this CCPA/CPRA
notice), taking into account: (i) how long we need the information
to provide and maintain the Service and Your Account; (ii) whether
You have requested deletion (subject to applicable exceptions);
(iii) Our legal, tax, accounting, and regulatory obligations; (iv)
security, fraud prevention, and abuse monitoring needs; and (v)
the time periods needed to resolve disputes and enforce Our
agreements.
Specific retention periods for major data categories are described
in the “Retention of Your Personal Information” section of Our
Privacy Policy, and We may retain certain information longer where
required or permitted by law (for example, to comply with
recordkeeping obligations or to establish, exercise, or defend
legal claims).
Sale of Personal Information of Minors Under 16 Years of Age
We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors under
the age of 16 through our Service, although certain third party
websites that we link to may do so. These third-party websites
have their own terms of use and privacy policies and We encourage
parents and legal guardians to monitor their children’s Internet
usage and instruct their children to never provide information on
other websites without their permission.
We do not sell the Personal Information of Consumers We actually
know are less than 16 years of age, unless We receive affirmative
authorization (the “right to opt-in”) from the parent or guardian
of a Consumer less than 16 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to
the sale of personal information may opt-out of future sales at
any time. To exercise the right to opt-out, You (or Your
authorized representative) may submit a request to Us by
contacting Us.
If You have reason to believe that a child under the age of 16 has
provided Us with personal information, please contact Us with
sufficient detail to enable Us to delete that information.
