Additional Notices
- Opt-Out of Sale/Sharing for Targeted Advertising: US privacy laws give US residents the right to direct a business that “sells” or “shares” their Personal Information to stop selling and/or sharing their Personal Information at any time. As used here, “selling” means exchanging Personal Data with a third party for money or anything of value, and “sharing” means disclosing Personal Data to a third party for use in conducting “cross-context behavioral advertising,” also referred to as “targeted advertising.” An example of targeted advertising is displaying advertisements to a person where the advertisement is selected based on Personal Data obtained from their activities over time and across non-affiliated websites or applications to predict their preferences or interests. In certain situations, and as detailed above, we share for targeted advertising Personal Data with third parties. You can opt out of the sharing of your Personal Data by emailing us at [email protected] or calling our toll-free number at 951-848-7600.
- Profiling: “Profiling” as used in this Privacy Notice means any automated processing of Personal Data to evaluate, analyze, or predict personal aspects related to an individual’s economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location, or movements. We may engage in this kind of profiling with regard to your Personal Data. The law provides a right to opt out of profiling that is part of making decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects (such as whether to provide financial services, housing, employment, healthcare services, or access to essential goods or services). You can opt out of this type of profiling as described above. Please be aware that we do not accept or process opt-out requests through other means (e.g., via fax or social media).
- Use of Sensitive Data: You have the right to limit some uses of Sensitive Personal Data. In general, you may direct companies not to use Sensitive Personal Data except as necessary to provide goods or services you have requested or other exempt purposes. However, we only use Sensitive Personal Data for purposes that are exempt from this right, such as to provide you with goods or services you have requested, to detect and prevent security incidents, or verifying the quality of our goods and services. The full list of these exempt purposes is specified in the California Code of Regulations, Title 11, Section 7027(m).
- Children’s Data: We do not knowingly collect or use the Personal Information of children under 18. If you believe that we have collected the Personal Information of a child under 18, please contact us at [email protected].
- Authorized Agents: You may designate an authorized agent to make a rights request on your behalf. Your authorized agent may submit such a request by following the same methods described above in the section titled Exercising Your Personal Data Rights.
