The categories of personal information are identifiers (such as name, address, and email address); commercial information (such as transaction data); financial data (such as credit card and other financial account information); internet or other network or device activity (such as IP address and browsing history); geolocation information (general location and, with your consent, precise location); inference data about you; audio and visual information (such as when you upload or record audio or video using the Services); legally protected classifications (such as gender); and other information that identifies or can be reasonably associated with you.  The categories of sensitive personal information are account log-in and password, financial data, or other credentials allowing access to your account, as well as biometric information.  .We or our service providers collect and disclose the above categories of personal information for the purposes described in our Policy.

‍Rights Of California Consumers

‍If you’re a California resident, you may have certain rights. California law may permit you to request that we:Provide you the categories of personal information we have collected or disclosed about you; the categories of sources of such information; the business or commercial purpose for collecting, “selling,” or “sharing” your personal information; the categories of third parties to whom we disclose or “sell,” or with whom we “share,” personal information; and the categories of personal information we “sell.”Provide access to and/or a copy of certain information we hold about you.Delete certain information we have about you.Correct inaccurate personal information that we maintain about you.You also have the right to not be discriminated against (as provided for in applicable law) for exercising certain of your rights.

You will still need to verify your identity directly with us.The CCPA requires businesses that “sell” personal information, as the term “sell” is defined under the CCPA, to provide an opt-out from such sales. Some people have taken the position that when a website uses third parties’ cookies or similar technology for its own analytics or advertising purposes, the website is engaged in a “sale” under the CCPA if the third parties have some ability to use, disclose or retain the data to improve their service or to take steps beyond the most narrowly drawn bounds of merely providing their service to the website/app. Some take this position even when the website pays the third party (not vice versa), and in most cases merely provides the third party with an opportunity to collect data directly, instead of providing personal information to the third party. As part of these analytics and advertising services, these technologies may access identifiers (like IP addresses), internet or other electronic network activity information (like information regarding an individual’s browsing interactions on our Services), and commercial information (like the fact that a browser visited a page directed to people who are considering the use of our Services) to those sorts of companies. While we do not believe these are “sales” as that term is defined under the CCPA, you can opt out of this activity.  The CCPA also requires businesses that "share“ personal information to provide an opt out from such sharing.  Under the CCPA,” sharing” is defined as the targeting of advertising to a consumer based on that consumer’s personal information obtained from the consumer’s activity across websites.  We “share” information for these purposes to provide more relevant and tailored advertising to you regarding our Services.  As part of this advertising, we may "share“ identifiers (like IP addresses and email addresses), internet or other electronic network activity information (like information regarding an individual’s browsing interactions on our Site), and commercial information (like the fact that a browser visited a page directed to people who are considering a subscription to the Services) with advertising platforms and advertising networks.  To opt out of such “sharing,” please visit this link: Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information. Please note that we also respond to and abide by opt-out preference signals sent through the Global Privacy Control.  Any opt out preferences you have exercised through these methods will only apply to the specific device/browser on which you made them. For more information on how to use the Global Privacy Control, see www.globalprivacycontrol.org.We do not knowingly “sell” or “share” the personal information of children under 16.The CCPA also allows you to limit the use or disclosure of your “sensitive personal information” (as defined in the CCPA) if your sensitive personal information is used for certain purposes.  Please note that we do not use or disclose sensitive personal information other than for purposes for which you cannot opt out under the CCPA.

‍Sales Of Personal Information

‍The Colorado Privacy Act (COPA) requires businesses that “sell” personal information, as the term “sell” is defined under the COPA, to provide an opt-out from such sales.  Some people have taken the position that when a website uses third parties’ cookies or similar technology for its own analytics or advertising purposes, the website is engaged in a “sale” under the CCPA if the third parties have some ability to use, disclose or retain the data to improve their service or to take steps beyond the most narrowly drawn bounds of merely providing their service to the website/app. Some take this position even when the website pays the third party (not vice versa), and in most cases merely provides the third party with an opportunity to collect data directly, instead of providing personal information to the third party. As part of these analytics and advertising services, these technologies may access identifiers (like IP addresses), internet or other electronic network activity information (like information regarding an individual’s browsing interactions on our Services), and commercial information (like the fact that a browser visited a page directed to people who are considering the use of our Services) to those sorts of companies. While Captions does not believe these are “sales” as that term is defined under the COPA, you can opt out of this activity as described in the “your rights” section above.
