We are required by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) to provide this CCPA notice (“CCPA Notice”) to California residents to explain how we collect, use, and share their personal information, and the rights and choices we offer California residents regarding our handling of their personal information.

This is because this information is subject to the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and implementing regulations, or the California Financial Information Privacy Act (for additional information relating to your choices about this information specifically, see our Consumer Privacy Disclosure); or
- representatives of businesses that seek to obtain our products or services, or to provide products or services to us.

If you would like to learn how you may opt out of our (and our third party advertising partners’) use of cookies and other tracking technologies, please review the instructions provided in the Online Tracking Opt-Out Guide above.
- Privacy Rights. The CCPA grants individuals the following rights:
- You can request information about how we have collected, used and shared your personal information during the past 12 months. For details about the personal information we have collected over the last 12 months, including the categories of sources, please see the ‘What We Collect’ section above.
