California “Do Not Sell My Info”

The California Consumer Protection Act (“CCPA”) requires us to tell you if we have sold your personal information to third parties in the past 12 months and how to opt-out of future sales. Because the CCPA considers IP address, cookie IDs, and mobile IDs “personal information” and defines “sale” to include simply making data available to third parties, we are providing this notice to give you additional information. We let some advertising providers collect IP addresses, cookie IDs, through our site and their use of that information when providing us services may constitute a sale of personal data under the CCPA. We do not “sell” any other types of personal information. Note: we have set our site to restricted data processing through Google Adsense, so California residents who visit our website should be automatically opted-out.

You can opt-out from any sharing of your personal information with third parties if that sharing constitutes a “sale” of that data under the CCPA. You can opt out of this type of information sharing by opting out of third-party Advertising cookies as noted above.

Note that although we will not “sell” your personal information after you opt out of Advertising cookies, we will continue to share some personal information with our partners (acting as our service providers) to help us perform advertising-related functions such as managing how many times you see an ad, managing and reporting on ad performance, providing aggregate statistics and analytics, and/or reducing ad fraud. Further, updating your cookie preferences will not necessarily opt you out of the use of previously collected personal information by these cookies or stop all interest-based advertising. Please note that your cookie preferences are domain- and browser-specific. This means that if you replace or upgrade your browser, use another browser (or device), clear your browser’s cookies, or set your browser to refuse third-party cookies, you may need to reset your opt-out preferences.
