To the extent that such sharing is considered a “sale” under applicable laws that extend rights to you, you may limit such sharing by following the instructions found above in the section titled, YOUR PRIVACY CHOICES AND RIGHTS or CONTACT US as described in this Policy.

If we become aware that a child has provided us with personal information in violation of applicable law, we will delete any personal information we have collected, unless we have a legal obligation to keep it, and if applicable, terminate the child’s account.
