For personal information we process on behalf of our business clients in our capacity as a service provider or processor, please submit your request directly to the business client with whom you have a relationship, and we will provide reasonable assistance to that business client as necessary to enable them to respond to your requests to exercise your privacy rights.

    Right to Opt-out of Sale and Sharing of Personal Information. California residents have the right to opt-out of our sale and sharing of their personal information.

If you come to our Site or use our Services from a different device or from a different browser on the same device, you will need to opt-out, or use an opt-out preference signal, for that browser and/or device as well.
