  1. Your Rights and Responsibilities

You are permitted, and hereby agree, to only provide personal information to the Company if such personal information is accurate, reliable, and relevant to our relationship and only to the extent such disclosure will not violate any applicable data protection law, statute, or regulation or infringe upon any individual’s data privacy rights or privileges. If you provide the Company with any personal information about a third party, you expressly represent that you have the full right and authority to submit the information to the Company.

Depending on the jurisdiction in which you reside or the Company operates, you may have certain data protection rights. To exercise any of these data privacy rights, please contact us, or have your authorized agent contact us, in accordance with the “Contact Us” section listed below. In the event you submit, or your authorized agent submits on your behalf, a data request, you (and your authorized agent) hereby acknowledge and agree, under penalty of perjury, that you are (or the authorized agent of) the consumer whose personal information is the subject of the request. We will respond to any data requests within the timeframes required by law, and we may charge a fee to facilitate your request, where permitted by law. The rights afforded under data protection laws are not absolute, and the Company may be permitted to refrain from undertaking any action or changing its data processing activities, in response to a data request you submit to us.

Marketing. You have the right to opt-out of receiving electronic direct marketing communications from us. All electronic direct marketing communications that you may receive from us, such as e-mail messages, will give you an option of not receiving such communications from us in the future. California residents have the right to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not share personal information with third parties with whom we have reason to believe use such information for their own direct marketing purposes.

California Privacy Rights. Pursuant to the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended (“CCPA”), certain California residents may have additional data privacy rights, such as the right to be notified about what personal information is collected about you, and our intended use and purpose for collecting your personal information. In some circumstances, California residents have the right to know and access the categories or specific pieces of personal information we have collected, used, disclosed, or sold about you over the past twelve (12) months; the categories of sources from which the personal information is collected; and, the business or commercial purpose for which your personal information was collected, used, disclosed, or sold. In addition, certain California residents have the right to request the Company transfer, to the extent feasible, personal information in certain forms and formats. California residents have the right to request that we (and any applicable service provider) delete/erase your personal information under certain circumstances.

In some circumstances, certain California residents have the right to opt-out of the sale of their personal information. The Company does not sell your personal information to third parties for profit.  However, (as describe above) we do use third party website analytical tools and features, marketing partners, and other service providers, and such relationships may involve the disclosure of your personal information in a manner that may constitute a “sale” of personal information under the CCPA.If you would like to opt-out of the disclosure of personal information in these circumstances, please click on the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” link on the applicable Site or contact us in accordance with the instructions set forth below. Our Site is not directed to, and should not be used by, minors under the age of sixteen (16) and therefore the Company does not knowingly “sell” (as defined by the CCPA) the personal information of minors under sixteen (16) years of age without affirmative authorization.

California residents have the right not to be subject to discrimination for asserting their rights under the CCPA. If you make, or an authorized agent on your behalf makes, any request related to your personal information under the CCPA, the Company will ascertain your identity (and the identity of the authorized agent, to the extent applicable) to the degree of certainty required under the law before addressing your request. The Company may require you to match at least two or three pieces of personal information we have previously collected from you before granting you access to, or erasing, specific pieces, or categories of, personal information, or otherwise responding to your request. We may require written documentation that demonstrates a third party is authorized to serve as your agent for the purposes of submitting the requests set forth herein.

Do Not Track. Some web browsers may transmit “Do Not Track” signals to the website with which the user communicates. Because of differences in how web browsers incorporate and activate this feature, it is not always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted, or whether they even are aware of them. We currently do not take action in response to these signals.

Persons with Disabilities. The Company strives to ensure that every person has access to information related to our products and services, including this Privacy Policy. Please contact us if you would like this Privacy Policy provided in an alternative format and we will seek to meet your needs

Text/SMS Message Consent; Opt-Out and Notice Obligations. You may, in your sole discretion, provide the Company with your mobile telephone number in order to receive text messages from us, such as messages and alerts related to our products, events, and/or promotions. By providing us with your mobile telephone number, you (i) expressly represent that you are the owner of, and have the authority to provide, the mobile telephone to us for these purposes, and (ii) hereby consent to receive from us automated marketing text messages at the mobile telephone number so provided. You further acknowledge that your consent to receive automated marketing text messages from us is not, in any form or manner, contingent upon, or required to make, a purchase for goods or services. Standard text/SMS message and data rates will apply and you should check the rates of your mobile carrier prior to providing us with your mobile telephone number. You can opt-out from further text marketing communications by texting STOP to the SMS number used by us to contact you or by contacting us directly in accordance with the “Contact Us” section listed below. We may share your mobile phone number with service providers with whom we contract to assist us with our marketing activities, but we will not share your mobile phone number with third parties for their own marketing purposes without your consent. Because text messages are distributed via third party mobile network providers, we cannot control certain factors relating to message delivery. Depending on your mobile carrier, it may not be possible to transmit the text message to you or your mobile device successfully; nor is our content available on all carriers. We do not claim or guarantee availability or performance of this service, including liability for transmission delays or message failures. Without limiting any of the foregoing, you hereby agree that you will immediately and without delay (and within 72 hours) notify the Company in the event you no longer are the owner of any mobile telephone number provided to the Company or have the authority to use any such mobile telephone number to receive text messages.
