California residents may have the right to opt-out of “sales” or “sharing” of their Personal Information under the CCPA. The CCPA defines a “sale” as disclosing or making available to a third-party Personal Information in exchange for monetary or other valuable consideration, and “sharing” broadly includes disclosing or making available Personal Information to a third-party for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising. While we do not receive monetary compensation from third-parties when we disclose Personal Information, we may disclose the following categories of Personal Information with third-party advertising companies, marketing companies, social media platforms, and analytics partners for targeted advertising, marketing, and campaign management purposes: identifiers, internet and network activity information, and other information about how you interact with our websites or mobile applications.

Please note that your cookie settings are device and browser specific—so, if you come to our website from another device or browser, you will need to reapply your settings. Please note that submitting an opt out request will only opt you out of disclosures that are considered “sales” or “sharing” under the CCPA, but it will not opt out of other disclosures, such as to our service providers. You may also opt-out of “sales” and “sharing” of your Personal Information, through the use of an opt-out preference signal. If our website detects that your browser or device is transmitting an opt-out preference signal, such as the “global privacy control”—or GPC— signal, we will opt that browser or device out of Tracking Technologies on our website that result in a “sale” or “sharing” of your Personal Information. Please note, if you come to our website from a different device or a different browser on the same device, you will need to opt out, or use an opt-out preference signal, for that browser and/or device as well. We do not sell or share sensitive personal information, nor do we sell or share any Personal Information about individuals who we know are under sixteen (16) years old.Right to Limit Use and Disclosure
