How do we use and share your personal information?

The CCPA requires businesses that “sell” personal information, as the term “sell” is defined under the CCPA, to provide an opt-out from such sales. Some people have taken the position that when a website uses third parties’ cookies or similar technology for its own analytics or advertising purposes, the website is engaged in a “sale” under the CCPA if the third parties have some ability to use, disclose, or retain the data to improve their service or to take steps beyond the most narrowly drawn bounds of merely providing their service to the website/app. Some take this position even when the website pays the third party (not vice versa) and in most cases merely provides the third party with an opportunity to collect data directly instead of providing personal information to the third party. As part of these analytics and advertising services, these technologies may access identifiers (like IP addresses), internet or other electronic network activity information (like information regarding an individual’s browsing interactions on our Services), and commercial information (like the fact that a browser visited a page directed to people who are considering the use of our Services) to those sorts of companies. While we do not believe these are “sales” as that term is defined under the CCPA, you can opt out of this activity. You can opt out of these activities by visiting this link: Do Not Sell Or Share My Personal Information.

The CCPA also requires businesses that "share“ personal information to provide an opt-out from such sharing. Under the CCPA, “sharing” is defined as the targeting of advertising to a consumer based on that consumer’s personal information obtained from the consumer’s activity across websites. We “share” information for these purposes to provide more relevant and tailored advertising to you regarding our Services. As part of this advertising, we may "share“ identifiers (like IP addresses and email addresses), internet or other electronic network activity information (like information regarding an individual’s browsing interactions on our Site), and commercial information (like the fact that a browser visited a page directed to people who are considering a subscription to the Services) with advertising platforms and advertising networks. You can opt out of any activities that may be considered selling or sharing by clicking “Do Not Sell Or Share My Personal Information” on the bottom of the website homepage.
