In this case, we may have to cancel a product or service you have with us, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that unauthorized persons will not view your User Contributions.

Cookies and Automatic Data Collection Technologies

Our Website uses automatic data collection technologies to distinguish you from other Website users. This helps us deliver a better and more personalized service when you browse our Website. It also allows us to improve our Website by enabling us to:

Estimate our audience size and usage patterns.

Store your preferences so we may customize our Website according to your individual interests.

Speed up your searches.

Recognize you when you return to our Website.

We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking).

We use Google Analytics to perform analytics services for us, which may include tracking your interactions with our Website and to storing information, such as what time you visited it, whether you have visited it before and what site referred you to it. Website measurement statistics may be used to personalize your website experience, as well as to evaluate – anonymously and in aggregate – statistics on website activity. We use this information to measure the effectiveness of our web presence and to compile statistical reports. Additional information about how Google Analytics and collects and processes data can be found here.

Certain internet browsers may offer you the option of providing notice to websites that you do not wish for your online activities to be tracked for preference-based advertising purposes (“DNT Notice”). Some browsers are, by default, set to provide a DNT Notice, whether that reflects your preference. Please note that with respect to our Website, we do not take any action based on browser based DNT Notices. If you do not wish to participate in behavioral tracking activities, you should follow the opt-out process described in Your Choices About Your Information.

This allows them to link devices or browsers and to provide you a seamless experience across the different environments used or likely used by you.

Third Party Content, Apps, and Links

Some content or applications on the website may be served by third parties, content providers and application providers. For example, we may make available the option for you to use “plug ins” that are operated by social media companies.

Visiting us here.

Who may submit requests

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf by registering such person or entity with the California Secretary of State.

How often you can submit requests

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period.

How we verify and respond to requests

Your request must be verifiable. The request must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably very you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative, which may include requiring you to provide us at least two data points, depending on the type of personal information you are requesting to know or are requesting to be deleted.

Describe your request with enough detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate and respond to it.

We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.

Response Timing and Format

We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing within forty-five (45) days of receiving your verifiable consumer request.

We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request's receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. You have a right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for exercising your privacy rights.

Other California Privacy Rights

California's "Shine the Light" law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our Websites that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. At this time, we do not engage in this type of disclosure.
