5. YOUR CHOICES AND RIGHTS

You may have certain rights and choices regarding how we collect, use, disclose and otherwise process your personal data.

 

Communications Choices.  You can choose whether you wish to receive promotional messages from the Company and/or affiliated businesses and which types of messages you wish to receive.  If you receive promotional messages from us or affiliated businesses and would like to opt out, you may do so by following instructions within those messages. 

 

Interest-Based Advertising Choices.  We may allow third-party companies to serve ads and/or collect certain information when you visit our Services. These companies may use information (e.g., click stream information, browser type, time and date, subject of advertisements clicked or scrolled over) collected during your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of interest to you. These companies may also tie identifiers associated with a particular browser or device to identifiers associated with other browsers or devices used by the same user or household (e.g., a device identifier associated with a user’s computer may be tied to the device identifiers of that user’s tablet and phone) in order to measure and target advertisements tailored to user interests across their devices and to send personalized marketing communications. These companies typically use a cookie, tracking pixels or third-party web beacons to collect this information. These companies may also serve advertisements to you, using other personal information, such as your email address. Our systems do not recognize “Do Not Track” signals, but several of these third-party companies who utilize these cookies or beacons on our websites enable you to opt out of this behavioral advertising. To learn more or opt out from these companies you can visit http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices and www.aboutads.info/choices/.

​

Sales and Targeted Advertising.  As described in the Interest-Based Advertising Choices section, we may disclose your personal data by allowing certain third parties (such as online advertising services, social networks, and data analytics providers) to collect personal data through automated technologies on our Online Services for targeted advertising purposes.  We also may disclose your personal data to the companies within our joint venture and our partners for their own marketing purposes.  These kinds of sharing activities may be considered “sales” under certain laws. They also may be considered sharing or processing of personal data for targeted advertising under applicable law.

 

Depending on where you reside, you may have the right to opt out of the sale of your personal data or sharing or processing of your personal data for targeted advertising.  See our Texas Privacy Rights section for more information.

 

Mobile Applications.  You can manage your preferences for push notifications and access to your device location, camera, photos, and contacts by our mobile applications through the device settings of your mobile device. In some cases, you may not be able to use certain features of our mobile applications if you restrict certain access.

 

Other Choices.  You can edit or remove certain information in your user account for our Online Services by signing in to your account and viewing your account pages.  Please note, however, that if you choose not to provide personal data that is necessary to provide certain features of the Online Services, your use of the Online Services may not include those features.

 

You can choose not to disclose certain location data by adjusting the settings on your device.  Please note, however, that if you choose not to disclose this data, you may not be able to access or use our location-based Online Services.

 

You can choose to limit the data that third-party services (for example, social media platforms) disclose to us using the options the applicable third-party service provides to you (for example, the options a third-party social media platform provides when you connect your social media account with the Online Services).  You can also disconnect your use of the Online Services from the third-party service using the options the applicable third-party service provides its users.  Please note, however, that if you disconnect your use of the Online Services from the third-party service, that will not delete the personal data we may have previously collected while you were connected.

​

6. DATA SECURITY

We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect personal data against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized access, destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure or use. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however.  Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security and encourage you to use websites and share information with caution.

​

7. THIRD-PARTY SITES AND FEATURES

Our Online Services may contain links to, or integrations with, other websites, platforms, or services (such as social media platforms) that we do not operate or control.  These services and third-party features operate independently from us.  This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third parties.  The privacy practices of the relevant third parties, including details on the information they may collect about you, are subject to the privacy statements of these third parties, which we strongly suggest you review.  We are not responsible for the information practices of these third parties.

​

8. CHILDREN AND PARENTS

Our Online Services are not directed at children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under the age of 13. 

 

If you have reason to believe that a child under the age of 13 has provided personal data to us without parental consent, please contact us using any of the methods described in the How to Contact Us section to request that we delete the personal data.

​

9. DATA TRANSFERS

Personal data that we collect may be stored and processed in the region in which it is collected, in the United States.  We take steps to help ensure that the personal data we collect under this Privacy Policy is stored and processed in accordance with this Privacy Policy regardless of where the data is located.  Such personal data may be transferred to the offices and servers of companies that run our joint venture and third-party service providers.

​

10. Browsing Session Information

We use technologies that maintain records of your browsing session, chats, and other activities on our website. These technologies may include session replay that maintains a record of your interactions with our website, chat providers that maintain a transcript of your chats, cookies, pixels, and other tracking technologies that share some of your interactions with our website, as well as other technologies that collect and share your interactions with our website.

For all requests, you must provide us with your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address.  We will verify your identity by matching the information we have collected against the information you have provided. Failure to provide the foregoing information may prevent us from processing your request. 

If you have requested that we correct your personal information, we may contact you to request additional information about the personal information that you believe is inaccurate, including supporting documentation.

Please include your full name, the basis for your appeal, and any additional information to consider.

​

Cookie-Based Opt-Outs for the Sale or Sharing of Personal Information.  We engage in online advertising practices (and certain analytics or similar activities) for targeted advertising and cross-context behavioral advertising.  To turn off targeted and behavioral advertising through cookies, please click on the “Cookie Preferences” link in the footer of our Sites and ensure that Analytics and Advertising cookies are disabled.  Please note that we may not be readily able to associate your personal information with your IP address or Device ID, and that you will only be opted out of online sales or sharing of data through targeted or behavioral advertising.  Refer to the “Exercising Your Rights” section above if you would like to extend your opt-out request beyond the online advertising practices described above. 

​

Global Privacy Control and Opt-Out Preference Signals.  Some browsers or browser extensions also allow you to tell websites not to share your information for cross-contextual behavioral advertising through the “Global Privacy Control” or other opt-out preference signals.  If you have enabled Global Privacy Control or an opt-out preference signal on your browser or extension, we will honor such requests that can be recognized by our Sites by disabling Analytics and Advertising cookies and similar technologies.  Please note that we may not be readily able to associate an opt-out preference signal with other personal information such as your email address.  You will also only be opted out of online sales or sharing of personal information, and will need to turn it on for each browser you use.  Refer to the “Exercising Your Rights” section above if you would like to extend your opt-out request beyond the online advertising practices described above.

To the extent required by applicable law, we retain personal data for as long as necessary to provide our products and services and fulfill the transactions you have requested, or for other business purposes such as complying with our legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements. Because these factors vary for different types of personal data, actual retention periods may vary. The criteria we use to determine the appropriate retention periods take into account how long the personal data is needed to provide our products and services, the applicable statute of limitations, and records retention requirements under applicable law.

​

13. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
