For the avoidance of doubt, if you are resident in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) this may include the transfer of your personal information from within the EEA to a country outside of the EEA.

We retain your personal information for as long as we have a relationship with you and for a period after the relationship has ended. When determining how long to keep your personal information after our relationship with you has ended, we take into account how long we need to retain the information to fulfill the purposes described above and to comply with our legal obligations, including regulatory obligations. We may also retain personal information to investigate or defend against potential legal claims in accordance with the limitation periods of countries where legal action may be brought.

13. YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

California law requires that we describe certain disclosures of personal information that involve monetary or other consideration.  California law treats such disclosures as “sales” even if no money is exchanged.  As disclosed in Section 5, above, we may disclose personal information with subsidiaries and affiliates for their marketing use and so that they may develop and improve products and services, and subject to applicable law send you promotional and informational communications.  Some such disclosures constitute “sales” under California law and involve the disclosure of personal information to:

Subsidiaries and Affiliates: 

The following categories of your personal information may be disclosed in association with such sales:

  • Identifiers;
  • Commercial information;
  • Geolocation data;
  • Internet or other electronic network activity information;
  • Audio, electronic, visual, or similar information;
  • Professional information;
  • Inferences drawn from any of the above information categories

In addition to the access, disclosure, and erasure rights described in Section 8 above, you have the right to opt-out of the sale (as described above) of your personal information.  You may exercise that right by emailing your request to [email protected].

Under California’s “Shine the Light” law, California residents who provide personal information in obtaining products or services for personal, family or household use are entitled to request and obtain from us once a calendar year information about the customer information we shared, if any, with other businesses for their own direct marketing uses. If applicable, this information would include the categories of customer information and the names and addresses of those businesses with which we shared customer information for the immediately prior calendar year (e.g. requests made in 2008 will receive information regarding 2007 sharing activities). We do not share personal information covered by California’s Shine the Light law with third parties for their own direct marketing uses.

To obtain this information, please send an email message to [email protected] with “Request for California Privacy Information” on the subject line and in the body of your message. We will provide the requested information to you at your e-mail address in response.

Please be aware that not all information sharing is covered by the “Shine the Light” requirements and only information on covered sharing will be included in our response.
