We may need to verify your identity before responding to certain requests. Verification may require information sufficient to confirm that you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or that you are authorized to act on behalf of that person.
Only you, or a person legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Information.
J. Authorized Agents
You may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf. We may require proof that you authorized the agent to act on your behalf and may also require you to verify your identity directly with us, unless otherwise prohibited by law.

We will respond to verifiable consumer requests as required by applicable law. If we need more time, we will notify you as required by law.
L. Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information
If you wish to opt out of the sale or sharing of Personal Information, you may contact us using the methods listed above.
Because some advertising and analytics cookies are browser- or device-specific, you may need to adjust settings or opt out separately on each browser or device you use.
M. Global Privacy Control and Similar Signals
Where required by applicable law and technically feasible, we will treat recognized browser-based opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, as requests to opt out of sale or sharing for the browser or device that sends the signal.

Our Service is intended for business users and is not directed to children under the age of 13.

If we become aware that we have collected Personal Information from a child under 13 without appropriate parental consent, we will take steps to delete that information.

Removal is not guaranteed in all circumstances, and the law may not require or permit removal in certain situations.
19. Do Not Track Disclosure
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” signal. Because there is no uniform industry standard for responding to Do Not Track signals, our Service does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals.
However, some third-party websites or services may track your browsing activities over time and across different websites. You can adjust your browser settings to communicate your tracking preferences or to block certain cookies.
Where required by applicable law, we will respond to recognized opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, as described in this Privacy Policy.
