Notice to European Users

This website and the services provided on it are designed primarily for users in the United States. Any information you provide on this Site may be transferred outside of the European Union to servers located in the United States, where data protection laws do not offer the same level of privacy safeguards required in the European Union.

In particular, be aware that the United States operates under a sectoral model of privacy protection, which relies on a combination of legislation, governmental oversight, and self-regulation. Under Article 26 of the European Union’s Data Protection Directive (Directive 95/46/EC, 1995 O.J. (L 281) 31), the transfer of personal data from the EU to a non-EU country is permitted if the individual has explicitly given consent, regardless of whether that country provides the same level of data protection.

By using this website or its services, you consent to the transfer and processing of any information you submit to servers in the United States, as outlined in this Privacy Policy, even though the level of protection may differ from that required in the European Union.


Children (Under 16 Years of Age)

Our website is not intended for individuals under the age of 16. No one under 16 may submit personal information through the website. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 16. If you are under 16, please do not use this website or share any personal details.

If we discover that we have inadvertently collected personal data from a child under 16 without verified parental consent, we will promptly delete such information. If you believe that we may hold any personal information about a child under 16, contact us at the email address provided below.


Changes to Our Privacy Policy

Whenever we make updates to our privacy policy, we will post the revised version on this page and place a notice on the website’s home page indicating that changes have been made. If there are significant modifications regarding how we handle users’ personal data, we will provide an additional notice on the home page.

The date of the latest revision will be shown at the top of this page. You are responsible for keeping us informed of a current, valid email address and for checking this page periodically for any updates to the policy.

  • De-identified or aggregated consumer data.

  • Information that falls outside the scope of the CCPA, including:

    • Health or medical data covered by HIPAA or CMIA, or clinical trial records.

    • Personal information covered by specific sector-based privacy laws such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), the California Financial Information Privacy Act (FIPA), or the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act of 1994.

We collect the types of personal information listed above from the following sources:

  • Directly from you: For example, from forms you complete on our Website.

  • Indirectly from you: For example, from tracking your interactions and activities on our Website or through engagement with our advertisers.

 


Use of Personal Information

We may use or share the personal information we collect for one or more of the following purposes:

  • To fulfill the reason you provided the information.
    For example, if you give us your name and contact details to ask a question about a product, we use that data to respond. If you provide your details to make a purchase, we use the information to process your payment and arrange delivery. Your information may also be saved to help with future purchases or returns.

  • To provide support and respond to inquiries.
    This includes investigating and addressing concerns, as well as improving how we handle requests.

  • To comply with legal and regulatory obligations.
    We may share information in response to law enforcement, court orders, or applicable laws.

  • As otherwise described at the time the information is collected, or as set forth by the CCPA.

We will not gather additional types of personal data or use the information for unrelated or materially different purposes without giving you prior notice.


Sharing Personal Information

We may disclose your personal information to a third party for a business purpose (or, where applicable, sell your personal information, subject to your right to opt out of such sales as described in Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights). When personal data is shared for a business purpose, we enter into a contract requiring the recipient to keep the information confidential and to use it solely to perform the contracted work.

(The CCPA prohibits third parties who purchase personal information from reselling it unless you receive clear notice and the opportunity to opt out of such sales.)

We share your information with these categories of third parties:

  • Facebook – Please review Facebook’s Privacy Policy and Data Policy for their data handling practices.


Disclosures of Personal Information for a Business Purpose

In the past twelve (12) months, the Company has not disclosed any personal information for a business purpose.


Sales of Personal Information

In the past twelve (12) months, the Company has not sold personal information.


Your Rights and Choices

The CCPA provides California residents with certain rights regarding their personal information. This section explains those rights and how you can exercise them.


Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights

You have the right to request details about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we verify your request, we will provide you with:

  • The categories of personal information we have collected about you.

  • The categories of sources from which that personal information was obtained.

  • Our business or commercial reasons for collecting or (if applicable) selling the personal information.

  • The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.

  • The specific pieces of personal information collected about you (a “data portability request”).

  • If your information was sold or disclosed for a business purpose, we will provide two separate lists:

    • A list of sales, identifying the categories of personal information sold and the recipients.

    • A list of disclosures for business purposes, showing which categories of personal information were shared and with whom.

Deletion Request Rights

You have the right to request the deletion of any personal information we have collected and retained about you, subject to specific exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable request, we will delete (and instruct our service providers to delete) your personal data from our records, unless an applicable exception requires retention.

We may deny a deletion request if keeping the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:

  • Complete the transaction for which the data was collected, provide a product or service requested by you, carry out actions reasonably expected within the scope of our business relationship, or fulfill a contract.

  • Detect and prevent security incidents, malicious or fraudulent activity, or take legal action against those responsible.

  • Debug products to identify and fix issues that affect intended functionality.

  • Exercise free speech or ensure another consumer can exercise their legal rights to free speech, or comply with other legal rights.

  • Follow requirements under the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et seq.).

  • Conduct public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that complies with all relevant ethics and privacy laws, where deletion would make the research impossible or seriously impair its goals, provided informed consent has been given.

  • Enable internal uses that align with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.

  • Comply with a legal obligation.

  • Carry out other lawful and compatible internal uses based on the context in which the information was provided.


Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights

To exercise your rights to access, data portability, and deletion described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request through our website. Only you, or a person officially authorized and registered with the California Secretary of State to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable request related to your personal information. You may also submit a verifiable request on behalf of your minor child.

  • You may make a verifiable request for access or data portability no more than twice in a 12-month period.

  • Your request must:

    • Provide enough information for us to reasonably confirm your identity (or the identity of your authorized representative).

    • Clearly describe your request so we can understand, evaluate, and respond appropriately.

We cannot fulfill your request or provide personal data if we cannot confirm your identity or authority to make the request. Information submitted in a verifiable request will only be used to verify the requester’s identity or authority.


Response Timing and Format

We aim to respond to a verifiable request within 45 days of receipt. If additional time is required (up to 90 days), we will notify you in writing, explaining the reason and extension period.
Our response will be delivered in writing either by mail or electronically, based on your preference.

  • The disclosure will only cover the 12 months preceding the receipt of your verifiable request.

  • If we are unable to comply with your request, our response will include an explanation.

  • For data portability requests, we will choose a format that is easy to use and allows you to transfer the information to another entity without difficulty (for example, via email).

There is no fee for processing or responding to a verifiable request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or clearly unfounded. If a fee applies, we will inform you why and provide a cost estimate before completing the request.

 


Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights

If you are 16 years of age or older, you have the right to request that we do not sell your personal information (this is referred to as the “right to opt-out”). We do not collect or knowingly sell personal information from consumers under the age of 16.

If you previously consented (“opted-in”) to the sale of your personal information, you may opt out at any time. To exercise your right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) can submit a request through our website.

Once you submit an opt-out request, we will wait at least 12 months before asking for reauthorization of personal information sales. However, you may choose to opt back in at any time by visiting our website and sending us a request. Any personal data submitted in an opt-out request will only be used to process and comply with that request.


Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:

  • Deny you access to goods or services.

  • Charge different prices or rates, including through discounts, benefits, or penalties.

  • Provide a different level or quality of goods or services.

  • Suggest that you will receive a different price, rate, level, or quality of goods or services.

We may, however, offer certain financial incentives allowed by the CCPA that may result in different prices, rates, or quality. Any incentive program we offer will be directly related to the value of your personal information and include written terms explaining its key elements. Participation in such programs is voluntary and requires your prior consent, which you may revoke at any time.


California’s “Shine the Light” Law

California Civil Code Section § 1798.83 allows residents of California to request specific details about how their personal information has been shared with third parties for direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send us an electronic message through our website or write to us at the address listed on our website.


Changes to This Privacy Notice

We reserve the right to update this privacy notice at our discretion and at any time. When changes are made, the revised notice will be posted on our website, and the “effective date” at the top of the notice will be updated. By continuing to use our website after these updates are posted, you accept those changes.
