California Privacy Rights

The CCPA, codified at California Civil Code Section 1798.100 et seq., permits our users who are California residents to request and obtain from us, no more than twice in a twelve-month period and free of charge, information about: (1) the categories of personal information we collected about the user, (2) the categories of sources from which the personal information is collected, (3) the business or commercial purpose for collecting the personal information, (4) the categories of third parties with whom the business shares personal information, and (5) the specific pieces of personal information we collected about you. Information will be provided within 45 days of receiving a verifiable consumer request.

In the preceding 12 months, we have collected the personal data referenced above, which has been used and disclosed in the manner described above and for the purposes described above.

The CCPA defines “selling” and “sold,” to 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 another business or a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration.” Cal. Civ. Cod § 1798.140(t). Some of the disclosures identified above may be considered “selling” under this definition.
