3. Selling or Sharing Personal Information
The CCPA requires businesses that sell personal information, as the term
is defined under the CCPA, to provide an opt-out mechanism. Some interpretations
suggest that when a website uses third-party cookies or similar technology
for analytics or advertising purposes, the website may be engaged in a
sale under the CCPA if third parties have some ability to use, disclose,
or retain data to improve their service or take steps beyond the narrowly
defined bounds of merely providing their service. This interpretation may
apply even when the website pays the third party and typically merely provides
an opportunity to collect data directly rather than providing personal
information to the third party.
As part of these analytics and advertising services, these technologies
may access identifiers (such as IP addresses), internet or other electronic
network activity information (such as browsing interactions on our services),
and commercial information (such as the fact that a browser visited a page
directed to people considering use of our services). While we do not believe
these constitute sales as defined under the CCPA, you may opt out of this
activity. You can opt out by visiting the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal
Information" link available on our website homepage or in the Privacy Settings
of our application.
The CCPA also requires businesses that share personal information to provide
an opt-out mechanism. Under the CCPA, sharing is defined as targeting advertising
to a consumer based on that consumer's personal information obtained from
the consumer's activity across websites. We share information for these
purposes to provide more relevant and tailored advertising regarding our
services.
As part of this advertising, we may share identifiers (such as IP addresses
and email addresses), internet or other electronic network activity information
(such as browsing interactions on our site), and commercial information
(such as the fact that a browser visited a page directed to people considering
a subscription to our services) with advertising platforms and networks.
You can opt out of any activities that may be considered selling or sharing
by clicking "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" on our website
homepage or in the Privacy Settings of our application.
4. Data Retention
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary for the
legal basis relied upon and as permitted by applicable law.
California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act
(CCPA) requires us to disclose information regarding the categories of
personal information and sensitive personal information we have collected
about California consumers, the categories of sources from which the information
was collected, the business or commercial purposes for which the information
was collected, and the categories of parties to whom we disclose personal
information.
Throughout our Privacy Policy, we describe the specific pieces of personal
information and sensitive personal information we collect, the sources
of that information, and how we disclose it. Under the CCPA, we must also
provide you with the categories of personal information and sensitive personal
information we collect and disclose for business or commercial purposes.
The categories are identical to those listed in Section 1 above under "Categories
of Personal Information."
The purposes for which we use your personal information and the sources
of that information are described in the main Privacy Policy. We describe
our information disclosure practices, including disclosure to third parties
as defined by the CCPA, in the Privacy Policy.
Rights of California Residents
California residents have the following rights under the California Consumer
Privacy Act (CCPA) in addition to those listed in our Privacy Policy, and
you have the right to be free from unlawful discrimination for exercising
your rights under the Act:
-
Right to request that we disclose certain information and explain how
we have collected, used, and shared your personal information over the
past 12 months
-
Right to request that we correct inaccurate personal information we maintain
about you
-
Right to request that we delete your personal information collected from
you, subject to certain exceptions
Certain information may be exempt from such requests under applicable
law. We require certain types of information to provide the application
and sites to you. If you request deletion of such information, you may
no longer be able to access or use the application and sites.
To exercise any of the rights listed above, please email our Data Protection
Officer at dpo@tumile.me. You may be required to verify your identity before
we fulfill your request. We may request additional information from you
to match with our existing records to verify your identity, depending on
the nature of the request and the sensitivity of the information sought.
You may also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf.
To do so, you must provide us with written authorization or a power of
attorney signed by you for the agent to act on your behalf. You will still
need to verify your identity directly with us.
Sales and Sharing
The CCPA requires businesses that sell personal information to provide
an opt-out mechanism. As discussed above, some interpretations suggest
that when a website uses third-party cookies or similar technology for
analytics or advertising purposes, this may constitute a sale under the
CCPA if third parties have some ability to use, disclose, or retain data
to improve their service. While we do not believe these are sales as defined
under the CCPA, you can opt out of this activity by visiting the "Do Not
Sell or Share My Personal Information" link.
The CCPA also requires businesses that share personal information to provide
an opt-out mechanism. Under the CCPA, sharing is defined as targeting advertising
to a consumer based on that consumer's personal information obtained from
the consumer's activity across websites. To opt out of such sharing, please
visit the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link.
Please note that we also respond to and abide by opt-out preference signals
sent through the Global Privacy Control. Any opt-out preferences you have
exercised will only apply to the specific device and browser on which you
made them. For more information on how to use the Global Privacy Control,
visit www.globalprivacycontrol.org.
We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of children
under 16 years of age.
Sensitive Personal Information
The CCPA allows you to limit the use or disclosure of your sensitive personal
information as defined in the CCPA if used for certain purposes. Please
note that we do not use or disclose sensitive personal information other
than for purposes for which you cannot opt out under the CCPA.
Retention of Personal Information
See our Privacy Policy for information regarding retention of personal
information.
Notice of Financial Incentive
We may provide certain rewards or incentives for providing your email
address or referring friends and contacts, and may occasionally conduct
sweepstakes and contests where participants may provide personal information
in return for a chance to win or compete for prizes. Additionally, from
time to time, as part of a joint promotion with a third party, we may,
if you participate in such a promotion, disclose your contact information
to the third party to allow them to market their products or services to
you. Where this is a condition for participation in a promotion, we will
inform you before you enter the promotion. Please follow instructions provided
to you by third parties to unsubscribe from their messages.
You can opt into these incentives, sweepstakes, contests, or promotions
by taking the requested action. Your participation is completely voluntary,
and you have the right to withdraw from these incentives at any time. If
you decide not to participate in these financial incentives, you can refrain
from taking the requested actions.
The specific reward or incentive offered, if any, is made available to
you when you provide the requested information or submit a review. The
monetary value of the reward or incentive is a reasonable approximation
of the monetary value of the information you provide us. We have arrived
at this estimate based on consideration of multiple factors, including:
(1) revenue generated by us in developing insights about our customers;
(2) expenses incurred by us in operating the incentives; and (3) our reasonable
assessment of revenue we may generate as a result of referrals or other
personal information provided to us by our users.
Shine the Light
California's Shine the Light law, Civil Code Section 1798.83, requires
certain businesses to respond to requests from California customers asking
about the businesses' practices related to disclosing personal information
to third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes. If you
wish to inquire about any rights you may have under California Civil Code
Section 1798.83, you can contact us at Dpo@tumile.me.
