California Consumer Privacy Act Privacy Policy
Last Updated: May 29, 2025
Our Personal Information Handling Practices in 2024
We have set out below categories of personal information about California residents we have collected, and as applicable disclosed, for a business purpose in the preceding 12 months. The table is followed by a description of the purposes for which we collected personal information. “Worker” refers to our employees and contractors in California. If we process deidentified information, we will maintain the information in a deidentified form and not attempt to reidentify the information, except that we may attempt to reidentify the information solely for the purpose of determining whether deidentification processes used satisfy legal requirements. Please note that we do not monetize personal information about California residents in the sense of exchanging personal information for money. However, we disclosed certain personal information collected to advertising partners to provide website visitors with more interesting and customized information, promotions, and advertising, as set out below, which is considered “selling” and “sharing” under the CCPA. Please see our notice of right to opt-out of selling/sharing here: " Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information // Your Opt-Out Rights."

CCPA Rights
As a California resident, you have the following rights under the CCPA:
- The right to know what personal information we have collected about you, including the categories of personal information, the categories of sources from which the personal information is collected, the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing personal information, the categories of third parties to whom we disclose personal information, and the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you. You may only exercise your right to know twice within a 12-month period.
- The right to delete personal information that we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions.
- The right to correct inaccurate personal information that we maintain about you.
- The right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information by us. We disclose California residents' personal information to advertising business partners for the purposes of supporting our advertising efforts and, as such, we "sell" and "share" personal information as these terms are defined under the CCPA. Please note that we do not monetize personal information in the sense of disclosing your personal information in exchange for money. Please also note that, if you exercise your right to opt-out of the “sale” and "sharing" of your personal information, we may still disclose your personal information to third parties for purposes other than cross-contextual behavioral advertising, as described in our privacy disclosures.
- The right to limit our use and disclosure of sensitive personal information to purposes specified in Cal. Civil Code 1798.121(a). We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information that is subject to Cal. Civil Code 1798.121 for purposes other than those specified in Cal. Civil Code 1798.121(a).
