Do Not Share My Info

This notice outlines the rights available to residents of certain states in the United States concerning their ability to limit the sale, sharing, or specific use of personal information. Individuals residing in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Oregon, Texas, Utah, or Virginia may have the right to request restrictions on how their personal data is handled, depending on the privacy laws that apply in their state.

For California residents, privacy regulations provide the ability to request that a business stop selling or sharing personal information. The term “sale” is broadly interpreted and can include transferring or making data accessible to third parties in exchange for value, whether monetary or otherwise. “Sharing” may also involve providing personal information to external entities for purposes such as cross-context behavioral advertising, even if no direct payment is involved. These rights are intended to give individuals more control over how their personal data is distributed and used beyond the initial context in which it was collected.

Residents in Colorado, Connecticut, Oregon, Texas, Utah, and Virginia receive similar protections under their state privacy statutes. These rights may allow individuals to opt out of targeted advertising, profiling, or other processing of personal information. While terminology and scope may differ slightly by jurisdiction, the overall goal is to enable users to limit certain uses of their data, particularly for marketing or sharing with third parties.

Personal information may be used or disclosed in various operational contexts, including internal sharing among affiliated companies to deliver services, complete transactions, or fulfill product requests. Data may also be analyzed internally to understand user behavior, inform marketing strategies, and improve business operations. Additionally, third-party analytics providers may process data to evaluate engagement, detect trends, and support decision-making processes.

Advertising and marketing partners may receive limited categories of personal information, such as identifiers, browsing history, purchase data, or inferred preferences. This data can be used to serve more relevant advertisements or support broader promotional campaigns. While these activities are common in online services, certain privacy laws may classify them as “sale” or “sharing” of personal information.

Special protections are applied to the personal information of individuals below a defined age threshold, ensuring such data is not knowingly sold or shared without proper consent, in line with legal requirements.

Individuals who wish to exercise their opt-out rights can submit a request through available channels, such as online forms, email, or live chat. Verification of identity may be required to process requests, including providing contact details or other information necessary to confirm authorization. Requests may not be fulfilled if sufficient information is not provided or if procedures are not properly followed. Additional information may be requested to validate the legitimacy of a request, after which steps will be taken to honor the opt-out in accordance with applicable regulations.

Opting out may affect how certain services or features are delivered, including limitations on personalized content or marketing communications. Despite these changes, the organization remains committed to respecting user choices and maintaining transparency in data practices. Users are encouraged to review the complete privacy policy for detailed information about data collection, processing, and rights.
