Personal Information Obtained from Third Parties. We may receive personal information from third parties, such as our service providers, advertising partners, data analytics partners, distribution partners, event sponsors, publicly available sources, social media platforms, or data licensors/providers.

In addition, these companies may use hashed customer lists that we share with them to deliver ads to you and to similar users on their platforms.

We will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose of collection, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, to establish and defend legal claims, for fraud prevention purposes, or as long as required to meet our legal obligations. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
In this section, we describe the rights and choices that may be available to you depending on how you interact with us or use the Platform.

Cookies. Most browsers let you remove or stop accepting cookies from the websites you visit. To do this, follow the instructions in your browser’s settings. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all functionality of the Platform and our Site may not work properly.

Advertising Choices. You can limit the use of your information for interest-based advertising by blocking third-party cookies in your browser settings, using browser plug-ins/extensions, and/or using your mobile device settings to limit the use of the advertising ID associated with your mobile device. You can also opt out of interest-based ads from companies participating in the following industry opt-out programs by visiting the linked websites: the Network Advertising Initiative (http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp) and the Digital Advertising Alliance (https://optout.aboutads.info).

For example, you can learn more about how Google uses cookies for advertising purposes by clicking here and opt-out of ad personalization by Google by clicking here.
Many of the opt-out preferences described in this section must be set on each device and/or browser for which you want them to apply.

If you opt-out of interest-based advertisements, you will still see advertisements online but they may be less relevant to you.

This section applies only to California residents. It describes how we collect, use, and share personal information of California residents when we act as a “business” as defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), and their rights with respect to their personal information. For purposes of this section, “personal information” has the meaning given under the CCPA but does not include information exempted from the CCPA. In some cases, we may provide a different privacy notice to certain categories of California residents, in which case that notice will apply instead of this section.
Categories of Personal Information We Collect, and the Purposes of Collection and Use. We describe the categories of personal information we collect/have collected about you in the preceding 12 months, and the categories of sources from which we collect/have collected such personal information, in the section above called “COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION.” The business and commercial purposes for which we collect and share these categories of personal information are described in the section above called “USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION.”
To the extent that we may collect sensitive personal information (as defined under the CCPA), we only use or disclose it for purposes permitted under the CCPA (e.g., to provide the Platform, detect security incidents and prevent fraud, or to verify and maintain the quality of the Platform). We do not collect or use sensitive personal information for the purpose of inferring characteristics about California residents.
Personal Information Disclosed for Business Purposes. We disclose (and in the preceding 12 months may have disclosed) each of the categories of personal information listed above with our service providers and the other parties listed above in the section titled “DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION.”
Your California Privacy Rights. As a California resident, in addition to the choices described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy, you have the rights listed below. Please note, these rights are not absolute, and, in some cases, we may not be able to respond to your request, such as when a legal exemption applies or if we are not able to verify your identity.
Right to Know/Access. You can request the following information about how we have collected and used your personal information:
the categories of personal information we collected;
the categories of sources from which we collected personal information;
the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing (as applicable) that personal information;
the categories of third parties with whom we disclose personal information; and
a copy of the personal information that we collected about you.
Right to Delete. You can request that we delete the personal information we collected from you.

Right to Opt-Out of Sales/Sharing. If we “sell” or “share” your personal information, you can opt-out.
Right to Nondiscrimination. You are entitled to exercise the rights described above without receiving discriminatory treatment.
How to Exercise Your Rights. You may exercise the rights described above as follows:
Know/Access, Delete, or Correct. You may exercise these California privacy rights by emailing us at privacy@eudia.com.
Right to opt-out “sales” or “sharing”/ “targeted advertising” or “profiling” relating to the use of cookies. You can request to opt-out out your personal information from “sales” or “sharing”/ “targeted advertising” relating to the automatic collection of data on the Site by cookies and similar technologies by clicking [Cookie Icon] at the bottom of the Site and changing your cookie preferences or broadcasting the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. Note that due to technological limitations, if you visit our Site from a different computer or device, or clear cookies on your browser that store your preferences, you will need to return to this screen to select your preferences or rebroadcast the GPC signal.
Opt-Out of other Sales/Sharing. You can request to opt-out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information by emailing us at privacy@eudia.com or clicking here: Your Privacy Choices.
If you direct us not to sell/share your personal information, we will consider it a request pursuant to California’s “Shine the Light” law to stop sharing your personal information covered by that law with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
We reserve the right to confirm your California residence to process your requests and will need to confirm your identity to process your requests to exercise your right to know/access, delete, and correct. This is a security measure to, for example, help ensure we do not disclose information to a person who is not entitled to receive it. The identity verification process may vary depending on how you submit your request.
Consistent with California law, you may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. If you do so, we may require proof of your identification, the authorized agent’s proof of identification, and any other information that we may request in order to verify the request, including evidence of valid permission for the authorized agent to act on your behalf. We cannot process your request if you do not provide us with sufficient detail to allow us to understand and respond to it.
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee or decline to comply with your request if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive.
We try to respond to all legitimate requests to know/access, delete, and correct within 45 days of your request. Occasionally it may take us longer than 45 days to respond, for instance if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you of the delay, and may continue to update you regarding the progress of our response.
The information provided in this section applies only to individuals in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom (collectively, “Europe”). Except as otherwise specified, references to “personal information” in this Privacy Policy are equivalent to “personal data” governed by European data protection legislation.
