When there is no ongoing legitimate business necessity to process your personal information, we will either erase or anonymize it.

In the event that we discover personal information has been gathered from users under 18 years old, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable steps to promptly erase such data from our records.

8. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

We do not currently respond to Do-Not-Track signals or similar mechanisms.

This feature allows you to express your privacy preference by signaling that you do not wish your online browsing activities to be tracked and gathered. It's important to note that there isn't currently a universally accepted technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals. Consequently, we do not presently react to DNT browser signals or any other automated method that conveys your choice to avoid online tracking. Should a standardized approach to online tracking emerge that we are obliged to adhere to in the future, we will apprise you of this practice through a revised version of this privacy notice.

Verification process

Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are the same person about whom we have the information in our system.

For instance, depending on the type of request you submit, we may ask you to provide certain information so that we can match the information you provide with the information we already have on file, or we may contact you through a communication method (e.g., phone or email) that you have previously provided to us. We may also use other verification methods as the circumstances dictate.

We will only use the personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. To the extent possible, we will avoid requesting additional information from you for the purposes of verification. However, if we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us, we may request that you provide additional information for the purposes of verifying your identity and for security or fraud-prevention purposes. We will delete such additionally provided information as soon as we finish verifying you.
