Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State whom you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable request regarding your personal information.
Your application must:
- Provide sufficient information to enable us to reasonably verify that you are the person from whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
- Describe your request in sufficient detail to allow us to understand, evaluate, and respond appropriately.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with the required information if we are unable to:
- Verify your identity or authority to make the request
- And confirm that personal information relates to you
We will disclose and deliver the required information free of charge within 45 days of receiving your verifiable request. The time period for providing the required information may be extended once for another 45 days when reasonably necessary and with prior notice.
Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period prior to receipt of the verifiable request.
For data portability requests, we will select a format for providing your personal information that is easily usable and that allows you to transmit the information from one entity to another without hindrance.
Do Not Sell My Personal Information
You have the right to opt out of selling your personal information. Once we receive and confirm a verifiable consumer request from you, we will stop selling your personal information. To exercise your right to opt out of selling, please contact us.
Service providers with whom we collaborate (for example, our analytics or advertising partners) may use technology in the service that sells personal information as defined by the CCPA. If you wish to opt-out of the use of your personal information for interest-based advertising and potential sales purposes as defined by the CCPA, you may do so by following the instructions below.
Please note that any opt-out is specific to the browser you use. You may need to opt out for each browser you use.

“Do Not Track” Policy as required by the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA)
Our service does not respond to “Do Not Track” signals.

You can enable or disable the “Do Not Track” option by visiting your web browser’s preferences or settings page.

Our service is not directed to anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13.

If we become aware that we have collected personal data from someone under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.
If we need to rely on consent as a legal basis for processing your information and your country requires parental consent, we may need your parent’s consent before collecting and using that information.
