  1. Sale of Personal Information

Cookies, Web Beacons, IP Addresses.  The Platform has collected and shared certain unique/online Identifiers, such as cookies, with our advertising partners. Such sharing may constitute a “sale” under the CCPA, which broadens the definition of “sale” and “personal information” beyond how you might commonly interpret those terms.  Under the CCPA, “personal information” includes information that is not necessarily directly tied to an individual’s identity but may be associated with a device. This includes identifiers such as IP addresses, web cookies, web beacons.  Similarly, the term “sell” is defined to include not just selling in exchange for money, but also sharing or transferring personal information (including information that does not directly identify an individual as described above) in exchange for anything of value, which is not limited to the exchange of money.   In the last 12 months, Company has shared data with advertising partners, to delivering relevant advertising to you.  When you opt out  under this Section, Company will stop sharing your information with those of its advertising partners with whom such sharing is considered a “sale” under the CCPA.  If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.  

Publicly-Sourced Information.   In the last 12 months, the Circa Intel Chrome Extension has collected and shared certain publicly-sourced personal information from B2B industry events, including the names, job titles, employer name, business phone and email, and social networking urls of event hosts, organizers, sponsors, speakers and other event-related contacts, with subscribers to the Circa Intel Services.
