When We disclose personal information for a business purpose or a commercial purpose, We enter a contract that describes the purpose and requires the recipient to both keep that personal information confidential and not use it for any purpose except performing the contract.

Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

Some state privacy laws define “sale” or “sharing” broadly and may treat certain disclosures through advertising or similar third-party technologies as a sale or sharing even when no money is exchanged. Whether a particular technology constitutes a sale or sharing depends on how it is configured, the recipient’s role, and applicable law.

Where required by applicable law, We provide a method to opt out of the sale or sharing of Personal Data, targeted advertising, or similar processing through the privacy controls made available on the applicable Website or by contacting Us. Disclosures to Service Providers or processors acting on Our behalf under applicable contractual restrictions are not treated as sales or sharing where excluded by applicable law.

Only You, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that You authorize to act on Your behalf, may make a verifiable request related to Your personal information.

Your request to Us must:

Provide sufficient information that allows Us to reasonably verify You are the person about whom We collected personal information or an authorized representative
Describe Your request with sufficient detail that allows Us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it

We cannot respond to Your request or provide You with the required information if we cannot:

Verify Your identity or authority to make the request
And confirm that the personal information relates to You

We will disclose and deliver the required information free of charge within 45 days of receiving Your verifiable request. The time period to provide the required information may be extended once by an additional 45 days when reasonably necessary and with prior notice.

Any disclosures We provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable request’s receipt.

For data portability requests, We will select a format to provide Your personal information that is readily usable and should allow You to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.
