Your California Privacy Rights

If you live in California, you have several rights concerning your personal information. Specifically, you have the right:

  • To receive a copy of the information that we have collected from you or disclosed about you in the past 12 months;
  • To correct the information that we have;
  • To have your information deleted;
  • To opt-out of the sharing or selling of information. We do not sell any personal information. We only share personal information with third-parties to market directly to you if you either specifically opt-in or have the opportunity to opt-out and elect not to opt-out of that sharing. If you are under 16 years old, then you must opt-in to this type of sharing

We will not discriminate against any person exercising any of these rights. These rights may be limited by law.
