California Privacy Notice of Collection
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) requires us to provide you with additional details regarding: (1) the reasons for which we use each category of “personal information” (as defined by the CCPA) that we collect, and (2) the categories of third parties to whom we (a) disclose personal information for business purposes, (b) "share" personal information for "cross-context behavioral advertising," or (c) "sell" personal information. Under the CCPA, “sharing” refers to targeting advertisements to a consumer based on personal information obtained from their activity across different websites, while "selling" refers to disclosing personal information to third parties in exchange for monetary or other valuable compensation.
We “share” information to deliver more relevant and personalized advertising about our services. Although we do not sell our customers' personal information to third parties for money, our use of third-party analytics and online advertising services may involve sharing online identifiers (such as cookie data, IP addresses, device identifiers, and usage information), which could be considered a "sale" under the CCPA.
