We use standard practices to collect information through log files and your interactions with the Website. This information includes:

• Date and time stamps of your visit
• Referring and exit pages
• Your Internet Protocol (IP) address
• Your system, device, and browser type
• Your Internet Service Provider (ISP)
• The number of clicks you make on the Website

We use this data to analyze trends, manage and improve the Website, and understand how visitors navigate our site.

Please note: Your information may be transferred to and stored on computers located outside of your state, country, or governmental jurisdiction, where data protection laws might differ from your own. If you are located outside the United States, you consent to your information being processed in and outside of the U.S.

Cookies and Do Not Track Signals

Like many websites, we use cookies. These are small files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences and which pages you've visited. We use this information to enhance your experience, tailoring the Website to your browser type and other details.

Most web browsers allow you to manage cookie settings, including accepting or rejecting them and disabling tracking technologies. You can typically find these options in your browser's settings. However, unless legally required, we do not guarantee that we will respond to "Do Not Track" signals from your browser. Disabling cookies may affect your experience on the Website.

How We Share Your Information

We may share the information collected through our Website with third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as our web host. You agree that we can share your information with these providers solely so they can perform the services they are contracted to provide to us.

We may also disclose your information if we are legally required to do so to comply with applicable laws, regulations, or lawful requests.

Finally, in the event of a merger or acquisition, your information may be shared with the acquiring company and its representatives. This means your information could be transferred as part of the business assets.

Security

We use appropriate procedures to protect the information we collect and to guard against security breaches. However, no website can guarantee absolute security.

Children's Information

Protecting children online is very important to us. We encourage parents and guardians to supervise and guide their children's internet activity.

We do not knowingly collect any personal identifiable information from children. If you believe your child has provided us with personal information on our Website, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will make our best effort to promptly remove such information from our records.

Your California Privacy Rights (CCPA)

This section applies specifically to California residents, as defined by California law (Section 17014 of Title 18 of the Cal. Code of Regulations).

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 ("CCPA"), California consumers have certain rights regarding their personal information. You can request, up to twice in a 12-month period, that we disclose the personal information we collect, use, disclose, and sell about you. Our practices regarding collection, disclosure, and sale are detailed below, along with instructions on how to exercise your rights.

Categories of Personal Information We Collect and Why

We collect the following types of personal information:

• Identifiers: Such as your email address and IP address.
• Internet or other electronic network activity information: Including the time and date of your visit, time spent on the site, referring and exit web pages, specific pages you visited (including third-party sites linked from ours), internet service provider, domain name servers, types of devices accessing the site, browser type and version, and behavioral data (like email opens and clicks).
• Geolocation information: Derived from your IP address, including geographic region, area code, and zip code.
• Commercial information: Details about products or services you've purchased, obtained, or considered.
• Inferences: Information drawn from the above to create a profile reflecting your preferences, characteristics, or behavior (e.g., your likelihood to respond to an email ad).

Why we collect this information:

• Website access and interaction: To allow you to use and engage with our Website.
• Tracking interactions: To monitor your engagement with the Website and our email advertisements (e.g., counting ad impressions, verifying ad positioning and quality).
• Advertising/marketing services: Including affiliate marketing.
• Analytics and internal research.

How We Collect This Information

We collect the above personal information directly from you via the Website, including through:

• Cookies: Small data files stored on your computer's hard drive that help us identify you and make your use of the Website easier and more secure. Cookies may collect details like your referring website address, IP address, browser type, ISP, area code, zip code, visit time and date, and time spent on the Website.
• Tags, web beacons, and tracking pixels: Used on the Website and in our email advertisements.

We also collect personal information through advertising networks, data analytics providers, operating systems and platforms, and consumer data resellers/brokers.

What Personal Information Do We Disclose?

• If you unsubscribe from email advertisements, we share your email address with our third-party advertisers via a suppression file to comply with CAN-SPAM regulations.
• We may also disclose any of the above personal information if legally required to comply with applicable laws, regulations, or lawful requests, or to protect our rights.
• In the event of a business transaction (like a sale of assets, merger, or acquisition), your personal information collected through the Website may be one of the transferred business assets.

What Personal Information Do We Sell?

Under the definitions of "Sell" and "Sale" in the CCPA, we do not sell your personal information, nor do we sell the personal information of minors under 16 years of age without affirmative authorization. We do not offer financial incentives for disclosure.

Your Right to Request to Know and How to Submit a Verified Request to Know

A "request to know" allows you to ask us for information about the personal data we hold about you. This can include:

• Specific pieces of personal information we have about you.
• Categories of personal information we have collected.
• Categories of sources from which the information was collected.
• Categories of personal information we have sold or disclosed for a business purpose.
• Categories of third parties to whom the information was sold or disclosed for a business purpose.
• The business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling the information.

You can make a "request to know" up to twice within a 12-month period.

To submit a request, please email your request to [email protected]. To help us process and verify your request, you may need to provide your name and email address. If you use an authorized agent, we may require proof of your consent for the agent to act on your behalf, as well as verification of your own identity. The information you submit for a request to know will be used solely for verification and to provide the requested information.

Your Right to Request Deletion and How to Submit a Verified Request to Delete

You have the right to request the deletion of any personal information we have collected or maintain about you.

To submit a verifiable request to delete, please email your request to [email protected]. Similar to "requests to know," you may need to provide your name and email address for verification. If you use an authorized agent, we may require proof of your consent and your identity verification. Information submitted for a deletion request will be used only for verification and to fulfill your request.

Online deletion requests require a two-step process:

1. Clearly submit your request to delete.
2. Separately confirm that you want your personal information deleted.

Please note: We are not required to comply with your deletion request if your personal information is necessary for us to maintain for reasons outlined in California Civil Code § 1798.105(d). This includes, but is not limited to, completing a transaction, providing a requested good or service, detecting security incidents, protecting against malicious activity, debugging, or complying with a legal obligation. For example, we are not required to delete personal information necessary to maintain suppression files for individuals who have opted out of email marketing. If we cannot verify your request, we will notify you.

Your Right to Non-Discrimination for Exercising Your Privacy Rights

California consumers have the right not to face discrimination for exercising their CCPA privacy rights. This means we cannot:

• Deny you goods or services.
• Charge you different prices or rates.
• Provide you with a different level or quality of goods or services.
• Suggest you will receive a different price, rate, or quality of goods or services.

However, a business can charge a different price or provide a different quality of service if that difference is reasonably related to the value provided to the consumer by their data.

Additionally, a business may offer financial incentives for collecting, selling, or deleting personal information, or offer a different price/quality of goods or services, if that difference is directly related to the value provided to the consumer by their data.
