You may see advertisements for our services on other websites and mobile applications because we work with third party advertisers to engage in remarketing and retargeting activities.

These third party advertisers track your online activities over time and across websites and mobile applications by collecting information through automated means, including through the use of third-party cookies, web server logs, and web beacons. They use this information to show you advertisements that may be tailored to your individual interests. The information our advertising partners may collect includes data about your visits to websites and mobile applications that participate in the relevant advertising networks, such as the pages or advertisements you view and the actions you take on the websites or apps.

Google Analytics also offers a deactivation add-on for most current browsers that provides you with more control over what data Google can collect on websites you access.

However, the browser deactivation add-on offered by Google Analytics does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or to other web analysis services we may engage.
Google Analytics also uses electronic images known as web beacons (sometimes called single pixel gifs) and are used along with cookies to compile aggregated statistics to analyze how our Website are used.

The following applies to you only if you are a California resident.
The California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”) provides consumers who are California residents with specific rights regarding their Personal Information.
As a California consumer, you have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your Personal Information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request as described below, we will disclose to you:
As a California consumer, you have the right to request that we delete any or all of your Personal Information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and notify our service providers or contractors to delete) your Personal Information from our records, and notify all third parties to whom we have sold or shared such Personal Information, to delete your Personal Information, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
We may deny your deletion request to delete your Personal Information if retaining the Personal Information is necessary for us, our service providers, or our contractors to:
As a California consumer, you have the right to request, if we maintain inaccurate Personal Information about you, to correct such inaccurate Personal Information, taking into account the nature of the Personal Information and the purposes of the processing of the Personal Information.
As a California consumer, you shall have the right, at any time, to direct that we limit our use of your sensitive Personal Information to that use which is necessary:
As a California consumer, you have the right, at any time, to direct that we not to sell or share (as those terms are defined in the CPRA) your Personal Information. If you would like to opt-out of the sale of your Personal Information, please click here. If you would like to opt-out of the sharing of your Personal Information, please click here.
As a California consumer, you have the right not to be discriminated against for exercising any of your CPRA rights. Unless permitted by the CPRA, if you exercise any of your California rights, we will not:
However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CPRA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CPRA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your Personal Information’s value and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time.
To exercise your rights to know and/or to delete described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:
Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.
You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or request to know the Personal Information we disclose to service providers or third parties twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:
We cannot respond to your request if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
We will confirm receipt of your verifiable consumer request within ten (10) business days and provide you with information about how we will process the request, describing our verification process and when you should expect a response. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period immediately preceding our receipt of your verifiable request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
