The CCPA sets forth certain obligations for businesses that “sell” personal information to third parties. Based on the definition of “sell” under the CCPA and under current regulatory guidance, we do not believe that we engage in such activity and have not engaged in such activity in the past twelve (12) months from the effective date of this Privacy Policy. For clarity, we do not sell personal information of minors under sixteen (16) years of age.
To exercise any of the rights described above, you or your authorized agent acting on your behalf may submit a request:
These methods for submitting CCPA rights requests may be updated over time. Please consult this Privacy Policy regularly for the most up-to-date submission methods.
To verify your identity, we may ask you to confirm personal information we already have on file for you. If we cannot verify your identity from the information we have on file, we may request additional information, which we will only use to verify your identity and for security or fraud-prevention purposes.
If you use an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, we may require proof from you that they have been authorized directly by you to act on your behalf.
We will respond to your rights request as required under the CCPA.
We reserve the right to deny your request subject to applicable law, such as if we cannot verify your identity or the authority to receive the personal information related to you.
Pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1798.83, residents of the State of California have the right to request from companies conducting business in California certain information regarding disclosure within the immediately preceding calendar year of that California resident's personal information to third parties (and in some cases affiliates) for their direct marketing purposes. Alternatively, the law provides that a company may comply, as we do, by disclosing in its privacy policy that we provide consumers with a choice (opt-out or opt-in) regarding sharing personal information with third parties and affiliates for those third parties' and affiliates' direct marketing purposes, and information on how to exercise that choice. At this time, we do not share personally identifiable information with third parties or affiliates for those third parties' or affiliates' direct marketing purposes. If we do so in the future, we will provide you with a choice prior to sharing your personally identifiable information with third parties and affiliates for their direct marketing purposes. If you do not opt-in or if you choose to opt-out at the time we offer that choice, we will not share your information with that identified third party or affiliate for its direct marketing purposes.

If you are in the European Union, please see a list of local data protection authorities and their contact details here.
Because there is not yet a consensus on how companies should respond to web browser-based or other "Do Not Track" ("DNT") mechanisms, we currently do not respond to web browser DNT signals that provide a method to opt out of the collection of information about online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services. We may revisit our policy on responding to these signals, in which case we will post a revised privacy policy on this site.
We take steps to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We maintain reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information you provide against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use.
Unfortunately, the Internet cannot be guaranteed to be 100% secure, and we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or store on the Services.
Our Services are not directed to individuals under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information.

We are not responsible for the content or privacy and security practices and policies of third-party sites or services to which links or access are provided. We encourage you to learn about third parties' privacy and security policies before providing them with information.
We may transfer the personal information we collect about you to countries other than the country in which it was originally collected. Those countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the personal information. When we transfer your personal information to other countries, we will protect that information as described in this Privacy Policy.
If you are located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or the United Kingdom (“UK”), in some instances, including when delivering services to you, it may be necessary to transfer your personal data outside the EEA/UK. In such situations we only transfer your personal data to a country or international organisation outside the UK/EEA where there is an adequate level of protection of personal data; there are appropriate safeguards in place together with enforceable rights and effective legal remedies for data subjects; or a specific exception applies under data protection law. Where there is no adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards, we may transfer your personal data to a third country where an exception applies under data protection law.
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make any changes, we will notify you by revising the "Last Updated" date at the top of this Privacy Policy and where appropriate we may provide you with additional notice (such as adding a statement to the log-in screen or sending you an email notification). Your continued use of our Services after the revised Policy has become effective indicates that you have read, understood, and agreed to the current version of this Policy. If you do not agree to the Privacy Policy, do not use any Websites and Service.
