We do not disclose personal information to third parties for their own independent direct marketing purposes in the way that law covers.

12. Other U.S. State Privacy Rights

Residents of U.S. states with comprehensive consumer privacy laws may have further rights under the law of their state.

Those rights may cover access, correction, deletion, portability, and the ability to opt out of certain:

Which rights you have depends on the state you live in and the law that applies to us.

15. Data Security

We apply administrative, technical, organizational, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized:

• Access
• Use
• Disclosure

• Loss

Even so, no transmission over the Internet, electronic storage system, or security measure can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

For that reason, we cannot promise the absolute security of your personal information.

If you use the Services from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in the United States and in other countries where our service providers operate.
