Your Rights and Choices

The CCPA provides California residents with specific rights regarding their personal information, and the Nevada Act provides Nevada consumers with specific rights regarding their personal information. If you fall within either of these groups, this section describes your rights and explains how to exercise those rights.

Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights

You have the right to learn certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. You may view, collect, and/or change any personal information we have about you through your reader account settings.

Deletion Request Rights

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

1. Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.

2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.

3. Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.

4. Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.

5. Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 seq.).

6. Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.

7. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.

8. Comply with a legal obligation.

9. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

If you elect to delete your personal information, we cannot continue to provide you services as that information is required to do so. You may opt to delete your account (and its associated personal data) through this form. We may keep your email address, personal information, or other information as is relevant to documenting our compliance with your deletion request, though we will not use any of this retained information for any other purpose.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA or the Nevada Act, as applicable, we will not:

* Deny you goods or services.

* Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.

* Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.

* Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
