This request is free and can be made once a year using the contact information detailed in the "Exercising Your California Privacy Rights" section.

Upon receiving such a request, we will make sure that the information is not publicly available on our websites or mobile applications, but the information will not be completely or comprehensively removed from our systems and databases.

Your browser may offer you a "Do Not Track" option, which allows you to signal to operators of websites and web applications and services (including behavioral advertising services) that you do not wish such operators to track certain of your online activities over time and/or across different websites.

To protect your information, we may need to verify your identity before processing any requests to exercise your right to access and right to request deletion. This will include verifying that the email address you provide in connection with your request matches the email address we maintain on file for you. In some cases, we may ask that you provide additional information to verify your identity.

You can exercise these rights yourself or you can designate an authorized agent to make these requests on your behalf.
