Last Updated: January 1, YEAR_PLACEHOLDER

Your Privacy Rights

This page provides information about your rights to opt-out of the sale or sharing of your personal information under applicable privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and similar state privacy laws.

Our Data Practices

Do We Sell Personal Information?

Under privacy laws like the CCPA, "sale" is defined broadly to include sharing personal information with third parties in exchange for valuable consideration, including monetary or other valuable consideration.

We do not sell personal information in the traditional sense (i.e., we do not exchange your personal information for money).

However, certain data sharing practices may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" under the broad legal definitions in privacy laws:

Advertising and Analytics: We share information with advertising partners (Google Ads, Facebook Ads, Bing Ads, and other advertising networks) who use cookies and tracking technologies to deliver targeted advertising based on your browsing behavior
Affiliate Marketing: We may share limited information when you click on links to third-party providers
Cross-Context Behavioral Advertising: We participate in advertising networks that track users across different websites and contexts to deliver personalized ads

These activities may constitute "selling" or "sharing" personal information under applicable privacy laws.

Categories of Personal Information That May Be "Sold" or "Shared"

The following categories of personal information may be shared with third parties in ways that could constitute a "sale" or "sharing" under privacy laws:

Identifiers: IP address, device identifiers, cookie identifiers, online identifiers
Internet or Network Activity: Browsing history, search history, information about your interaction with our website, pages visited, links clicked
Geolocation Data: Approximate geographic location derived from IP address
Inferences: Profiles reflecting preferences, characteristics, behavior, and interests derived from your activity

Third Parties We May Share Information With

We may share personal information with the following types of third parties:

Advertising networks and platforms (Google, Facebook/Meta, Microsoft/Bing, and others)
Analytics providers (Google Analytics and others)
Social media platforms
Marketing partners and affiliate networks
Data brokers and advertising technology companies
