California Consumer Privacy Act

The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) is a comprehensive privacy law for California consumers that went into effect on January 1, 2020. The CCPA creates several new rights for consumers to control access and use of their personal information. These include the right to access and delete personal information collected, as well as the right to opt out of a “sale” of their personal information. Transfers to “service providers” are permitted under the CCPA.

As stated within our Privacy Policies (Website Policy  and App Policy),  WE DO NOT SELL PERSONAL INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES. While we do share some data with trusted “service providers” to improve and market our services and to operate our websites, we do not allow any third parties to use the personal information we share with them for their own purposes.

With respect to our customers doing business in California, we are a “service provider,” as defined under the CCPA. As a “service provider,” we only use customer data and personal information, as permitted in our customer agreements, or Master Services Agreement (MSA), and in compliance with CCPA.

To learn more about how we can help you exercise your rights under the CCPA, visit our Privacy Policies at Website Policy and App Policy.
