Selling/sharing of personal information

Some of the ways in which we share your personal information with third parties on our websites may, under the CCPA, be considered a “sale” of personal information or “sharing” of personal information for “cross-context behavioral advertising” (as those terms are used in the CCPA).

We engage third party service providers, including marketing and advertising providers, and social media platforms (providers) to personalize your browsing experience on our Websites/Apps, to provide certain targeted advertising services for us, and to help us measure the effectiveness of our Websites/Apps and our online advertising. When you visit our websites, we and our providers collect certain information about your activity on our Websites/Apps, including cookies and similar data stored on or collected from your browser or device. In some cases, our providers may combine this information collected on our Websites/Apps with information about your activity on other, unaffiliated websites or social media platforms to deliver our ads to you when you are visiting other websites or platforms. This sharing of your information with certain third parties via cookies and similar methods, and our providers' use of certain cookies, may be considered to be a "sale" of personal information or "sharing" of personal information for "cross-context behavioral advertising" under the CCPA.

California residents covered by the CCPA have the right to opt out of this "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. For those Websites/Apps where we engage in these activities and are covered by the CCPA, if we determine that you are visiting the Websites/Apps from a location in California, you will see a "Do Not Sell or Share my Personal Information" link on the footer of the Website's/App’s homepage. To opt out of this sale or sharing of your personal information, please click on the link and follow the prompts.

Note that Catchlight permits all visitors to certain portions of our catchlight.ai website to automatically exercise their right to opt out of this sale or sharing of this personal information through the use of the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, without having to make individualized opt-out requests. If you've enabled the GPC signal in your browser, we will honor your request to opt out of this sale or sharing of personal information as communicated via the GPC signal. These opt-outs (whether via the toggle above or via the GPC signal) are a setting that is specific to the device or browser you're using. You'll need to opt out again if you visit our applicable Websites/Apps from a different device or browser, change your browser settings, or clear your cookies.

In the 12 months preceding the date of this notice, we "sold" and/or "shared" personal information for "cross-context behavioral advertising", with respect to California residents covered by the CCPA. We do not knowingly "sell" or "share" for "cross-context behavioral advertising" personal information of minors under 16 years of age.

CCPA Exemptions

Please note that certain types of personal information collected or maintained by a covered business are exempt from the CCPA. For example, a covered business has limited obligations, or in some cases, no obligations, under the CCPA with regard to the following types of personal information:

  • Personal information collected, processed, sold, or disclosed pursuant to the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (Public Law 106-102) and implementing regulations, or pursuant to the California Financial Information Privacy Act (Division 1.4 [commencing with Section 4050] of the California Financial Code)
  • Medical information governed by the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act or protected health information that is collected by a covered entity or business associate pursuant to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996.

In addition, some businesses are not subject to the CCPA, such as the following:

  • A business that does not do business in the State of California
  • A business that is not organized or operated for the profit of financial benefit of its shareholders or other owners
  • A business that does not determine the purposes and means of the processing of consumers' personal information
  • A business that has annual gross revenue of $26,625,000 or less

Furthermore, under the CCPA, there are a number of situations where a covered business under the CCPA is not obligated to honor a CCPA request to delete a consumer's personal information and is allowed to continue to maintain the personal information. Some examples include situations where retention of the personal information is reasonably necessary to:

  • Complete the transaction for which the personal information was collected, provide a good or service requested by the consumer or reasonably anticipated within the context of the covered business’s ongoing business relationship with the consumer, or otherwise perform a contract between Catchlight company and the consumer
  • Help to ensure security and integrity to the extent the use of the personal information is reasonably necessary and proportionate for those purposes
  • Debug to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality
  • Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise that consumer's right of free speech, or exercise another right provided by law
  • Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on the consumer's relationship with the business and compatible with the context in which the consumer provided the information
  • Comply with a legal obligation

Please note that the description of the CCPA set forth in this privacy policy is a summary of only certain aspects of the CCPA and is not and should not be considered a complete description of the CCPA. In addition to what is described above, the CCPA includes other exemptions that apply to particular types of personal information and particular businesses, as well as additional situations where a covered business is not required to honor a consumer’s request to delete the consumer's personal information.
