deliver and measure ads, including retargeting.

You can adjust cookie settings in your browser or via our [Cookie Preferences link]. Some ad partners offer opt-outs via industry pages (e.g., NAI/DAA tools). Opt-outs are browser-specific and may rely on cookies.

Calls may be recorded for quality/training where legally permitted; where required, we will obtain consent.

9) “Sale” or “Sharing” of Personal Information (U.S. State Laws)

We do not sell personal information for money. We may “share” personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as defined under certain state laws (e.g., California). You can opt out by using our “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link or by enabling a browser-based Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal (recognized where required).

12) Security

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information (e.g., encryption in transit, access controls). No system is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

15) Do Not Track & Global Privacy Control

Most browsers offer “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals; there is no common standard, so we do not respond to DNT. Where required by law (e.g., CA), we honor GPC signals as an opt-out of sale/sharing.
