9. Privacy Rights and Choices

Depending on where you are located and subject to applicable legal exceptions, you may have certain rights in relation to your personal information.

  • You may have the right to request to access, correct, update or delete your personal information, subject to certain applicable legal exceptions.
  • If we have collected and processed your personal information with your consent, then you can withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal, nor will it affect processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
  • The right to submit certain privacy requests through an Authorized Agent.
  • The right to be free from discrimination for exercising the rights afforded to you under applicable privacy laws.
  • The right to appeal a decision we make about your rights request.

Exercising your rights: To exercise your rights you must submit a request to [email protected] and include your full legal name, date of birth, email address and username. Once you have submitted your request, we will respond within the time frame permitted by applicable privacy laws.

Please note, however, that your personal information may be exempt from such requests in certain circumstances, for example if we need to keep using your information to comply with our own legal obligations or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. If an exception applies, we will inform you when responding to your request.

Verification: In order to protect your personal information, your ability to exercise some of the rights detailed in this Privacy Policy may be subject to your ability to verify that you are the person about whom your request pertains. For example, we may require you to verify your identity by validating your account credentials or submitting additional information to allow us to verify your identity.

Authorized Agents: To exercise your rights using an Authorized Agent (as defined under applicable law), you must provide your Authorized Agent with written permission to exercise your rights on your behalf, and we may request a copy of this written permission from your Authorized Agent when they make a request on your behalf. We reserve the right to deny a request from an Authorized Agent that does not submit proof that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf.

Appeals: If we refuse to take action on a request within a reasonable period of time after receiving your request, you may appeal our decision by emailing us at [email protected]. In such an appeal, you must (a) provide sufficient information to allow us to verify that you are the person about whom the original request pertains and to identify the original request, and (b) provide a description of the basis of your appeal. Please note that your appeal will be subject to your rights and obligations afforded to you under applicable law. We respond to all appeal requests as soon as we reasonably can, and no later than legally required.

Do Not Track: Please note that because the effect of “Do Not Track” signals remains unclear, and because there continues to be no consistent industry understanding of how to respond to such a signal, we do not alter our privacy practices when we detect a “Do Not Track” signal from your browser.
