We may update this Policy from time to time, as specified in the “Changes to This Privacy Policy” section below.
California state law confers certain rights relating to personal information to its citizens. If you are a California resident please also see our California Privacy Section.

We may make full use of all information that is de-identified, aggregated, or otherwise not in personally identifiable form.
Information collection and use
We collect personal information using three methods: 1) from you; 2) using automated technology including when you visit our Site or communicate with us through email; and 3) through third party sources including our service providers. All personal information will be used as stated in this Policy. We will retain your personal information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy and as otherwise needed to comply with applicable law and internal company policies.
We may combine data collected from these disparate sources unless we tell you otherwise.
Retention of data
We will retain your personal information (collected through offline and online methods) for as long as it is necessary for the purposes described in this Policy.

COPPA Compliance
We are in compliance with the requirements of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and other applicable privacy laws.

We take reasonable appropriate steps to protect personal data from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction, whether in transmission or storage.

Requests to know
To make a request for any of the information set forth above (a “Request to Know”), please submit a verifiable consumer request pursuant to the instructions below. You may only make a Request to Know twice within a 12-month period. We will acknowledge your Request to Know within 10 business days and will attempt to respond substantively within 45-90 days.
The Request to Know must provide sufficient information to allow us to verify that you are the person about whom the personal information was collected, sold or disclosed and must contain sufficient detail to allow us to properly understand, evaluate and respond to your request. If we cannot verify your identity, we will not be able to respond to your request.

Once we receive your Request to Know, we will begin the process to verify that you are the person that is the subject of the request (the “Verification Process”). The Verification Process consists of matching identifying information provided by you with the information we have about you in our records. You will be asked to provide us with information that will help us to verify your identification.

Depending on the sensitivity of the personal information you are requesting to delete, we may need to match identifying information from your request with information in our records.
