Sharing for Direct Marketing Purposes

California law permits users in California to request certain details about how their “personal information” (as defined in California Civil Code Section 1798.83) is shared with third parties for direct marketing purposes. We may from time to time elect to share certain “personal information” about you with third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes. California users may, under certain circumstances, request and obtain certain information regarding our disclosure, if any, of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. If this applies, you may obtain the categories of personal information shared and the names and addresses of all third parties that received personal information for their direct marketing purposes during the immediately prior calendar year. 

To make such a request, please contact us using the information listed below. Please note that we are only required to respond to one request per California resident each year.

Such request must state that they personally posted such content or information and detail where the content or information is posted. We will make reasonable good faith efforts to remove the post from prospective public view or anonymize it so the minor cannot be individually identified. This removal process cannot ensure complete or comprehensive removal. For instance, third-parties may have republished the post and archived copies of it may be stored by search engines and others that we do not control.

12. WHERE WE STORE YOUR INFORMATION

Personal information may be exported outside of the jurisdiction in which you reside. Under those circumstances, the governments, courts, law enforcement or regulatory agencies of that country or those countries may be able to obtain access to your personal information through foreign laws. You need to be aware that the privacy standards of those countries may be lower than those of the jurisdiction in which you reside. You are not obliged to give your personal information to us, but if you choose not to do so, we may not be able to provide our services, or your access to our Services may be limited.

For any transfers of data outside the EEA or the UK, we will take appropriate measures in accordance with the GDPR to ensure that the recipient protects your personal information adequately in accordance with this Privacy Policy. These measures may include: entry into European Commission and UK Government approved standard contractual arrangements (“Model Clauses”). Please contact should you wish to examine a copy of the Model Clauses.
