This section provides additional information for Virginia residents under the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA). The terms used in this section have the same meaning as in the VCDPA. This section does not apply to information that is not considered "personal data," such as deidentified or publicly available information as defined in the VCDPA.

Data “Selling” and Targeted Advertising

We process personal data for purposes of targeted advertising (as defined in the VCDPA), including: Personal Identifiers, Internet Activity, and Commercial Information. This allows us to show you ads that are more relevant to you.

We do not receive monetary consideration in exchange for your data and therefore do not "sell" your data as defined in VCDPA.

Profiling

We do not profile consumers in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

VCDPA Rights

Your VCDPA rights are described below. 

Right to Access

You have the right to confirm whether we are processing personal data about you and to access such data. Where processing is carried out by automated means, you have a right to receive a copy of your personal data in a portable and readily usable format that allows you to transmit your data to another controller.

If you make an Access Request more than twice in a 12-month period, or we determine the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, we may require you to pay a small fee for this service.

Right to Delete

You have the right to request that we delete any personal data provided by or obtained about you. Subject to certain limitations, we will permanently delete any such personal data from our records and direct our processors to do the same.

Right to Non-Discrimination

If you exercise your VCDPA privacy rights, we will not discriminate against you by, for example, charging a different price or offering a different level or quality of products or services.

We will not retaliate against you, as an employee, applicant for employment, or independent contractor, for exercising your privacy rights.

Right to Opt-Out

Sale of Personal Data:
We do not sell your personal data, as defined by the VCDPA.

Targeted Advertising:

Profiling:
We do not profile consumers in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

Right to Correct

You have the right to correct inaccuracies in your personal data, taking into account the nature of the data and our purposes for processing it.

Authenticating Your Request

Once we receive your request, we will verify the information you provided by matching the information that we have collected. If we cannot authenticate your request, we may ask for additional information from you. If you are unable to provide additional information, or we are unable to authenticate the request using commercially reasonable efforts, we may deny your request.

Right to Appeal

If we decline to take action in response to any of your privacy requests, you have the right to appeal that decision within a reasonable amount of time, but no later than 90 days from the date of our decision. .

If you believe your rights have been violated and you are not able to resolve the issue directly with us, you may file a complaint with the Virginia Attorney General’s Office.
