Where collection of sensitive personal information is necessary for any other purpose, we will obtain your explicit consent or process that information only as permitted by applicable law. If we process sensitive personal information for purposes beyond what is reasonably necessary to provide requested goods or services, California residents may have the right to limit our use and disclosure of that information.

California residents may also have the right to request deletion of personal information, correction of inaccurate personal information, and a portable copy of certain personal information. California residents may opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, and we will not discriminate against you for exercising applicable privacy rights.
