DISCLOSURE OF YOUR INFORMATION

We may share your Personal Information with the government agency issuing the EIN, as well as with our service providers, affiliates, employees, and other third parties that perform essential services for us. Examples include: payment processor, cloud-service or internet provider, email marketing supplier, customer service platform, or other service providers.

We insist that these partners follow the same rules and standards with respect to your personal information as we do, and typically have a contractual agreement in place which prohibits them from disclosing or using the information other than for the purposes for which it was disclosed.

If you are a California resident, you may have additional rights with respect to the transmission of your information. Please see the section entitled “California Privacy Rights” below for more information.

We may aggregate, and/or anonymize any information collected through the Website or Service. We may use and share this aggregated and anonymized information (which is no longer Personal Information) for any purpose, including without limitation, for research and marketing purposes, analytics, and may also share such data with our affiliates and third parties, including advertisers, promotional partners, and others.

There are certain situations where Personal Information may be disclosed, examples are below:

  • To properly comply with or respond to an inquiry or complaint from a federal or state agency;
  • To comply with a subpoena or summons; and
  • In conjunction with a prospective purchase, sale, or merger of all or part of our practice.

DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS (“DNT”)

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a web browser setting that enables a web application to disable its tracking of an individual user. When you choose to turn on the DNT setting in your browser, your browser sends a signal to websites, analytics companies, ad networks, and plug in providers you encounter while browsing to stop tracking your activity. Currently, we do not monitor or take any action with respect to these signals or other mechanisms.

CHILD’S PRIVACY

The Site is not intended for use by children under the age of 16. We do not solicit or knowingly collect information from children under the age of 16. If you are the parent or legal guardian and become aware that a child under 18 has provided us with any personal information, please contact us at [email protected] to request the deletion of that information. If we become aware that a child under 16 has provided us with any personal information, we will immediately delete all information.

If we collected information about you for a one-time transaction and do not keep that information in the ordinary course of business, that information will not be retained for purposes of a request under this section. If we have anonymized data about you, we are not required to link your identity to that data if it is not otherwise maintained that way in our records.

You can also request that we delete your personal information. There may be certain exceptions to our obligation to delete your information such as if you have an existing account or transaction with us or if we have a legitimate business reason to keep your information.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights under the CCPA or CPRA. However, as permitted by California law, we may offer you certain financial incentives that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any permitted financial incentive offered will relate to the value of your Personal Information. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt in consent, which can be revoked at any time.

e. Third-Party marketing

According to California Civil Code Section 1798.83, our users who are California residents can request and obtain from us a list of what personal information we disclosed to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes in the preceding 12 months.
