Information Security
How Do We Protect Personal Data? We take information security seriously, and we use reasonable administrative,
technical and physical safeguards to protect the PII we collect from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. The
Operator protects data using administrative, technical, and physical safeguards. When we use third-party service
providers, we ask those providers to implement similar safeguards. However, we cannot guarantee that your
information is completely secure either within the Company or on the systems of third-party service providers.
But we have no control over the security of other websites on the Internet that you might visit even when a link may
appear to those websites on our Products or through our Services. If you share your computer or use a computer that
is accessed by the general public, remember to sign off and close your browser window when you have finished your
session. This will help to ensure that others cannot access your PII.
Additionally, and as you are likely aware, no system can be completely secure. Therefore, although we take
commercially reasonable steps to secure your information, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your
PII, searches or other communications will always remain secure. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via
the internet is not completely secure. We cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to
the Operator’s Websites. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for
circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on any of the Operator’s Websites.
In the event of a breach of the confidentiality or security of your PII, we will notify you if reasonably possible
and as reasonably necessary so that you can take appropriate protective steps. We may notify you under such
circumstances using the e-mail address(es) we have on record for you. You should also take care with how you handle
and disclose your PII. Please refer to the Federal Trade Commission’s website at http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/ for information about how to protect against
identity theft.
How Long Do We Keep Your Personal Data?
We retain personal Data we collect from you when we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (i.e., to
provide you with the Products or Services you have requested or to comply with applicable legal requirements). When
we no longer have an ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will physically
destroy, delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible, then we will securely store your personal Data and
isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

Notice of Collection
To review the types of personal information we collect, the sources of this information, and how we use and disclose
this information, please refer to the applicable sections of this Notice. We will not collect additional categories
– or use the personal information we have collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes –
without providing you notice.
For a list of the categories of personal information that we may have collected in the past 12 months, please refer
to the section of this Notice titled “How Information is Used and Shared.”
We collect and use these categories of personal information for the business purposes and sharing practices described
in this Notice.
We do not generally “sell” personal information as the term “sell” is traditionally understood. However, to the
extent “sale” under certain state privacy laws is interpreted to include advertising technology activities such as
those disclosed in the above sections as a “sale,” we provide you the option to request that we not “sell” your
personal information. We do not sell the personal information of minors known to be under the age of 18 without
affirmative authorization.
We may sell or disclose the following categories of personal information for commercial purposes: identifiers,
demographic information, commercial information, internet activity, geolocation data and inferences. We use and
partner with different types of entities to assist with our daily operations and manage our Products and Services.
Global Privacy Controls
Certain web browsers may allow you to enable a “do not track” option that sends signals to the websites you visit
indicating that you do not want your online activities tracked. This is different than blocking cookies, as browsers
with the “do not track” option selected may still accept cookies. We do not respond to “do not track” signals at
this time. If we do so in the future, we will modify this Notice accordingly.
Users Outside of the United States
The Products and Services are hosted in the United States and are governed by U.S. law. If you are using the Products
