Our privacy notice tells you what personal and non-Personal Information we collect from you, how we collect them, how we protect them, how we disclose them, how you can access and change them, and how you can limit our disclosing of them. Our privacy notice also explains certain legal rights that you have about your data. This policy applies to information we collect:

  • On this Website.
  • In email, text, and other electronic messages between you and this Website.
  • When you interact with our advertising and applications on third-party websites and services if those applications or advertising include links to this policy.

It does not apply to information collected by:

  • Any third party (including our affiliates and subsidiaries), including through any application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from or on the Website.

Any capitalized terms not defined herein will have the same meaning as those defined elsewhere on our website.

Definitions

'NON-PERSONAL INFORMATION' (NPI) means any information that is in no way personally identifiable.

'PERSONAL INFORMATION' (PI) means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ('data subject'); an identifiable natural person can be identified directly or indirectly by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person. PI is, in many ways, the same as Personally Identifiable Information (PII). However, PI is broader in scope and covers more data.

Your Rights

Contact us using the information at the top of this privacy notice to exercise any of your legal rights contained within this privacy notice. We will respond to your request within 30 days of receiving it. Occasionally it may take longer for multiple requests or complex circumstances.

When using our Website and submitting PI to us, you have certain rights under privacy laws in the United States, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and privacy laws of other countries including the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (the EU GDPR), the UK General Data Protection Regulation (the UK GDPR), the UK Data Protection Act of 2018, Canada’s Personal UTA Website Privacy Notice Page 4 of 13 Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), and other global privacy laws. Even if not listed here, we will make reasonable efforts to honor data subject access requests even though we may be under no legal obligation to do so. However, we reserve the right to decline any data subject access request that we are not legally obligated to comply with. Your rights include but are not limited to the following:

  1. The right to one or more means you can submit requests under this privacy notice, including (at minimum) a toll-free telephone number and an email address if the business operates a storefront and a website. If the company operates only an Internet website, it must have a dedicated email address where you can submit requests for information required to be disclosed by law.
  2. The right to know whether your PI is sold or disclosed and to whom.
  3. The right to request that we do not sell any of your PI.
  4. The right to be informed about the PI we collect from you and how we process them.
  5. The right to get confirmation that your PI is being processed and how you can access your PI.
  6. The right to correct your PI if inaccurate or incomplete.
  7. The right to request the removal or deletion of your PI if there is no compelling reason for us to continue processing them. However, the right to deletion is not absolute. It can be overridden to continue data processing in some cases where we still have a legal ground or overriding legitimate interest to process your data.
  8. The right to 'block' or restrict the processing of your PI. When your PI is restricted, we are permitted to store your PI but not to process them further.
  9. The right to request the PI you provided and use them for your purposes. Upon express request, we will provide your data to you or another service or product provider within 30 days of your request, subject to commercial and industrial secrets.
  10. The right to object to us processing your PI for the following reasons: a. Processing was based on legitimate interests or the performance of a task in the public interest/exercise of official authority (including profiling). b. Direct marketing and targeted advertising (including profiling). c. Processing for purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics
  11. The right that we limit the collection of your PI to that which is “adequate, relevant and reasonably necessary” with the purposes for which the data is processed.
  12. The right to file a complaint with supervisory authorities if your information has not been processed in compliance with your rights under privacy laws. Please see further details in the last section HOW TO COMPLAIN.
