Sensitive Data and Privacy Protections
Sensitive Personal Information—such as data concerning race or ethnicity, religion, precise location, LGBTQ+ status, health information, financial account data, or citizenship—is not directly collected by us. Nonetheless, information about your online activity may be collected automatically through technologies like cookies, which could indirectly indicate interest in sensitive subject matter or association with a sensitive group. For example, accessing content related to specific ethnic groups or health topics may imply such interests. These inferences are not made by us directly, but may be made by our affiliated companies or other third parties that receive personal information. If applicable laws require consent for such processing, our affiliates will not generate sensitive inferences. We do not collect or use personal information about children under 18.
How We Use Data
We use personal information to send you newsletters that you request and to provide content or marketing messages by email or via other channels. We also share your personal information with our partner companies, who may also send you marketing messages by email or otherwise. You can opt out here. Our use of your personal information may be considered “cross context behavioral advertising” in some cases.
Data Sharing
We may sell or share personal information with our clients and with our affiliated companies for marketing purposes, including cross context behavioral advertising. We also enable access to personal information by contracted service providers, for advertising, web hosting, fraud detection, marketing, analytics, data security, or other related services. When we share personal information, we put contracts in place to ensure appropriate data security measures and compliance with applicable laws. We also share personal information when we are required to do so by law (for example, if we receive a warrant, subpoena, or court order), or to protect the health, safety, or rights of any person.
Personal information may be shared to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including disclosures to law enforcement agencies, courts, regulators, government entities, or other third parties, to respond to legal requests, protect rights or safety, or enforce our terms of service and related agreements. We may also disclose personal information in connection with business transitions, such as mergers, restructurings, asset sales, dissolutions, or bankruptcy proceedings, where personal information is included among the transferred assets.
We may share personal information with third parties for purposes to which you have consented, as disclosed at the time you provided the information or as described in this privacy policy.
Targeted Ads and Analytics Services
Personal information collected at and through this website is shared with unaffiliated companies in order to show you advertisements on this or other sites, and for analysis and reporting related to those ads. These companies (some of whom may be considered data brokers under applicable laws) use cookies and similar technologies to collect information from your browser about web pages you view and ads that you view or click on. We (or they) may combine this personal information with personal information from other sources (including data brokers) and/or share it with third parties for marketing and advertising purposes (this is also known as “cross-context behavioral advertising” under some laws). We (and some of the third parties described in this section) collect your IP address, date and time of your visit to the website and of some of the actions you took here, your Internet Service Provider (ISP), and the browser type and version you use to visit. This information may be combined with personal information from other sources (including data brokers) as described above and used to display advertisements from us or from others through email, social media, websites, apps, direct mail, or by other channels. We also use personal information to understand user activity at this site in order to improve the user experience.
Cookies and Personalized Advertising
We use cookies and other similar technologies to: (1) operate this site, (2) perform analytics and tracking to understand and continuously improve the user experience, (3) select and deliver personalized content and advertisements, and (4) monitor your response to advertisements and other communications. Cookies are small computer files containing a unique ID that our server sends to your browser. Cookies enable us to recognize your browser when you visit this or certain other websites. We do not track every site you view on the Internet. You can limit, block, or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. If you use a browser-based “do not track” setting, this may result in an “opt-out cookie” to be set on your browser, which blocks additional data collection. If you later delete this opt-out cookie, automated data collection may resume.
To support Website functionality and analytics, we rely on automated data collection technologies such as cookies, Flash cookies, and web beacons. Cookies are small files stored on your device that allow our Website to operate efficiently. You may block cookies through your browser settings, although this may limit your ability to access certain Website features.
Some Website functions also rely on Flash cookies, which store information related to user preferences and navigation. These cookies are managed through Adobe Flash settings rather than browser controls.
Additionally, our Website and communications may include web beacons or pixels that help us understand how users interact with content, track email engagement, ensure system integrity, and gather Website performance data.
Global Privacy Control (GPC) and Do Not Track Signals
We honor Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) signals and other universal opt-out signals as valid opt-out requests for the sale and sharing of personal information. Upon detecting such a signal from your browser or device, we will process the opt-out automatically on your behalf. We do not seek to monitor every website you visit online. As described above, you may manage or remove certain cookies at any time through your browser settings. If you choose to opt out or enable a browser-based “Do Not Track” signal, including the GPC, an opt-out cookie will be placed on your browser to limit certain data collection activities. If that opt-out cookie is removed or your GPC settings are changed, automated data collection may resume.

You have rights with respect to your personal information, including the right to know what data we collect and how we use it (please review this policy), to obtain a copy of data we have collected about you, to ask us not to share your information with third parties, to have data deleted (including any sensitive personal information), to correct incorrect information (please request deletion), to ask us to limit the use of sensitive information (please request deletion), to opt-out of the sale or sharing of your data for cross-context behavioral advertising, or to make other requests. You, or an agent authorized to act on your behalf, may exercise your rights at any time at this page, or by calling 855-410-1383.

Please note, we cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or your authority to make the request. As such, a verifiable consumer request must:
- Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or are the authorized representative of that person.
- Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
Making a verifiable consumer request does not require that you to create an account with us. We will not use the personal information you provide in a verifiable consumer request for any purpose beyond verifying your identity, authority to make a request, or to otherwise process your request. We will respond to a verifiable request within 45 days of receipt. If we require additional time, up to 45 additional days, we will notify you in writing of the reason and the extension period within the first 45 days.
