  1. G. Opt Out of Sale/Sharing of Personal Information 

 

If you would like to opt out of the sale or sharing for targeted advertising purposes of your Personal Information, you may do so using our Do Not Sell/Share My Personal Information online form by clicking here or copy and pasting this into your browser: https://privacyportal.onetrust.com/webform/d3b95a93-e22e-4d4d-a806-482052406557/draft/48f5d98d-2135-41f2-a54a-701815a0247a. We will also recognize browser-based opt-out signals as required under law. If we receive an opt-out signal and are able to identify the consumer to whom the signal relates, we will treat the signal as a request to opt out related to all Personal Information we have on file for the consumer. If we receive an opt-out signal and are not able to identify the consumer to whom the signal relates, we will treat the signal as a request to opt out limited to the Personal Information we collect from the consumer during the online session during which the signal is present.
