Notice to California Customers – Your Privacy Rights

The California Consumer Privacy Act, Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.100 et. seq. (“CCPA”), grants residents of California certain rights with respect to their Personal Information and requires us to provide such individuals with certain information, described in this.

1. California residents may exercise the following rights by sending us an email with the following:
  - Know the ways in which we collect, use, share, disclose and otherwise process your Personal Information;
  - Know the specific pieces of your Personal Information that we hold;
  - Request the deletion of your Personal Information, subject to several exceptions; and
  - Not to be unlawfully discriminated against for exercising these rights.
  We reserve the right to take reasonable steps to verify your identity before fulfilling your request to know or delete. For example, we may seek to establish your identity to a reasonable or a reasonably high degree of certainty by matching information that you submit alongside your request with information that we have on our records. We may ask for supplemental information as needed to establish your identity.
2. California residents also have the right to opt-out of the “sale” of their Personal Information. We put sale in quotation marks because the CCPA considers some transfers of Personal Information to third parties in exchange for value as sales, even if no money changes hands, such as when cookies and other Tracking Technologies are shared with Third Party Businesses to further their own commercial purposes such as generating and/or adding to profiles about individuals for OBA. California residents can exercise this right by doing both of the following:
  1. to opt-out of “sales” that occur on the Service through cookies and other Tracking Technologies, follow the instructions in the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” link, which can generally be found in the Service’s footer (if a website) or settings/about menu (if an application). You may need to flip a toggle or take other action as described in those instructions. Toggle settings are generally browser-, Service-, and Device-specific and may reset if cookies are cleared. If you have any questions or need assistance exercising your rights, please contact us by email or as described at the end of this document.
3. Authorized agents seeking to submit requests on behalf of California residents and parents or guardians seeking to submit requests on behalf of their minors who are residents of California can submit such requests by using the forms above, by contacting ATOD by email. We may ask California residents to verify their identity and to confirm that they authorized the requestor to act on their behalf.
4. The CCPA requires businesses to provide additional disclosures regarding the third parties to which we transfer Personal Information for business purposes and to whom we sell Personal Information. We provide those disclosures in the following table.

Category of Personal Information	Categories of third parties to which we may have disclosed the Personal Information for a business purpose	Categories of third parties to which we may have “sold” the Personal Information
Identifiers Protected Characteristics Commercial Information Internet or other electronic network activity information Geolocation data Inferences drawn from the above categories	Data storage and security providers Order fulfillment providers Payment processors Database management providers Advertising, marketing, social media, and advertising facilitating companies List rental providers, data coops Community & forum management providers Market research & data enrichment providers E-commerce providers Companies that help with our Products and Product recommendations Related entities, such as our parent, subsidiaries and affiliates Professional advisors (such as lawyers, accountants, and consultants) Governmental and law enforcement officials, or parties to legal proceedings	Advertising, marketing, social media and advertising facilitating companies (including list buyers and advertising clients) Data cooperatives, suppliers, providers, and aggregators Companies that help with our Products and Product recommendations Related entities, such as our parent, subsidiaries and affiliates
Audio, electronic, visual, thermal, olfactory, or similar information Professional or employment-related information Education information Financial, medical, or health insurance information	(As defined above)	NONE.

B. California’s “Shine the Light” law, Civil Code §1798.83, gives California customers the right to prevent our disclosure of their Personal Information to third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes, and requires certain businesses to respond to requests from California customers asking about the business’ practices related to disclosing Personal Information to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Alternately, such businesses may have in place a policy not to disclose Personal Information of customers to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes if the customer has exercised an option to opt-out of such information-sharing. We have such a policy in place as discussed above.

C. California’s “Online Erasure” law, Business and Professions Code §§ 22580-22582, requires operators of certain websites and online services to allow registered users who are under the age of 18 and residents of California to request removal of Content they post. If you fit that description and posted Content on a section of our Service that is directed to California residents older than 12 and younger than 18 years of age, you may request removal of the Content by contacting us by email. In response to your request, we may elect to make the Content invisible to other users and the public (rather than deleting it entirely), in which case the Content may remain on servers we control and/or may be publicly available elsewhere if a third party copied and reposted the Content.
