California Privacy Rights
Users residing in certain jurisdictions, like California, have a right to access Personal Data held by Us about them and their right of access can be exercised in accordance with applicable law. California law requires certain businesses to respond to requests from California residents asking about the business’ practices related to disclosing Personal Data to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Alternatively, such businesses may have in place a policy not to disclose Personal Data of customers or clients to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes if the resident has exercised an option to opt-out of such information sharing. We have such a policy in place.
California residents may request further information about our approach to this law by writing to Us.
