    • Profile and account information, such as your account name and password, subscriptions, order  history, reviews, and products you have purchased.
    • Communications, such as email messages, phone calls, social media interactions, and other  communications.

    • Profiles reflecting your preferences and other characteristics, such as inferences regarding your  preferences when using the Platform and other characteristics about your interactions with us  that we may combine with other personal information we collect about you as described in this  Privacy Policy.

1.2. Sources of Personal Information. We obtain the categories of personal information listed above from the  following categories of sources:

  • Personal Information You Provide. We collect personal information when you voluntarily submit it to  us. For example, we may collect or receive personal information when you create an account on the  Platform, sign up to receive our emails, purchase a product, enroll in a new subscription, participate  in our promotions, contests, or surveys, post a review, submit a request to our customer service  team, interact with us on social media, or otherwise.
  • Automatically Collected Personal Information. We, our service providers, and our advertising  partners may automatically log information about you, your computer or mobile device, and your  activity over time on our Platform and other sites and online services, including the device  information and the online activity information described in the table above. Like many online  services, the Platform uses cookies and similar technologies to facilitate automatic data collection,  such as:
    • Cookies, which are text files that websites store on a visitor’s device to uniquely identify the  visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser for the purpose of helping you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, enabling  functionality, helping us understand user activity and patterns, and facilitating online advertising.
    • Flash cookies, or locally-stored objects, which are used on websites for purposes similar to  cookies but allow storage of a larger amount of data.
    • Web beacons, also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs, which are typically used to demonstrate that a webpage or email was accessed or opened, or that certain content was  viewed or clicked, typically to compile statistics about usage of websites and the success of  marketing campaigns.
  • Personal Information Obtained from Third Parties. We may also receive personal information about  you from other third party sources. For example, we receive personal information from our business  and advertising partners, event sponsors, joint marketing partners, affiliates and related companies, social media sites, or companies that provide us with personal information to supplement what we  already know about our customers and clients or help us identify new customers. We may merge or  combine such personal information with the other types of personal information we collect about  you.
  • Referrals. Users of the Platform may have the opportunity to refer colleagues, friends, or other  contacts to us and share their contact information with us. Please do not refer someone to us or  share their contact information with us unless you have their permission to do so.

These companies may use cookies  and similar technologies to collect information about you (including the device information and online activity  information described above) over time across our Platform and other sites and services or your interaction  with our emails, and use that information to serve ads that they think will interest you and/or use hashed  customer lists that we share with them to deliver ads to you and to similar users on their platforms. You can  learn more about your choices for limiting interest-based advertising, in the “Advertising Choices” section  below.

Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change  your settings. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all functionality of the  Platform and our Site may not work properly. For more information about cookies, including how to see what  cookies have been set on your browser and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

We use Google Analytics to help us understand user activity and patterns on the Site. You can learn more  about these cookies here and about how Google protects your data here.

5.4. Advertising Choices.

You can also limit collection of your information for interest-based ads by blocking third  party cookies in your browser settings or using privacy plug-ins or ad blocking software that help you block  third party cookies. In addition, your mobile device settings may provide functionality to limit use of the  advertising ID associated with your mobile device for targeted online advertising purposes. If you opt-out of  interest-based advertisements, you will still see advertisements online but they may be less relevant to you.

Some of the third party advertising companies we may work with offer their own opt-out options that you can  use to limit their use of your information for interest-based advertising. Please note that we also may work  with companies that offer their own opt-out mechanisms, such as Google  (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated) and Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/about/ads), or do  not participate in the opt-out mechanisms described above. Even after using these opt-out mechanisms, you  may receive interest-based advertising from other companies.

9. NOTICE FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

This section applies only to California residents. It describes how we collect, use and share personal information of  California residents when we act as a “business” as defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018  (“CCPA”), and their rights with respect to their personal information. For purposes of this section, “personal  information” has the meaning given in the CCPA but does not include information exempted from the scope of the  CCPA. In some cases we may provide a different privacy notice to certain categories of California residents, in which  case that notice will apply instead of this section.

9.1. Personal Information That We Collect, Use, and Disclose. We describe:

  • the categories of personal information we may have collected about you in the preceding 12 months in the  section above called “Collection of Personal Information”;
  • the categories of sources from which we collect your personal information in the section above called  “Sources of Personal Information”;
  • the business and commercial purposes for which we collect this information in the section above called  “Use of Personal Information”; and
  • the categories of third parties to whom we disclose this information in the section above called “Sharing of Personal Information”.

Trilliant must also disclose whether the following categories of personal information are disclosed for a “business  purpose” or “valuable consideration” as those terms are defined under the CCPA. The CCPA also calls this latter  category a “sale.” Note that while a category below may be marked, that does not necessarily mean that we have  personal information in that category about you.

In the preceding twelve months, we have disclosed the following categories of personal information in the manner  described:

Category Personal Information is Disclosed Personal Information is Disclosed for a Business Purpose for Valuable Consideration

 

A. Individual Identifiers and Demographic Information Yes Yes B. Commercial Information Yes No C. Internet or Network Activity Yes Yes D. Inferences Drawn from Personal Information Yes No 9.2. Your Rights as a California Resident.

The CCPA provides California with the rights listed below:

  • Right to Access. You have the right to request that Trilliant disclose certain information to you about our  collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months, including:
    • The categories of personal information we collected about you.
    • The categories of sources of the personal information we collected about you.
    • Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information. o The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.
    • The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you.
  • Right to Erase/Delete. You have the right to request that Trilliant delete any of your personal information  that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions.
  • Right to Opt-Out of Sales. If we “sell” your personal information, you can opt-out.  • Right to Nondiscrimination. You are entitled to exercise the rights described above free from  discrimination in the form or legally prohibited increases in the price or decreases in the quality of our  products and services.

Please note, these rights are not absolute and in some cases we may not be able to respond your request, such as  when a legal exemption applies or if we are not able to verify your identity.

9.3. How to Exercise Your California Privacy Rights.

  • Access and Deletion Rights. To exercise the access and deletion rights described above, please submit a  request to us and provide the information we request that is required to verify your request by:  o Emailing us at SupportDesk@victorallen.com, or
    • Calling us at 1-800-619-7063.
  • Right to Opt-Out of the “Sale” of Personal Information. Under California law, some of the data we share  with our advertising partners may qualify as a “sale” as defined under the CCPA. To exercise your right to  opt-out of such “sale”, please:

When exercising your rights or otherwise assisting you, we may need to request specific information from you to  help us confirm your identity. This is a security measure to ensure we do not disclose personal information to any  person who is not entitled to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to  your request to speed up our response.

You may also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. If you do so, we may require the  requester’s proof of identification, the authorized agent’s proof of identification, and any other information that we  may request in order to verify your request, including evidence of valid permission for the authorized agent to act  on your behalf.

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However,  we may charge a reasonable fee or decline to comply with your request if your request is clearly unfounded,  repetitive, or excessive.

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within 45 days of your request. Occasionally it may take us longer than  45 days to respond, for instance if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In  this case, we will notify you of the delay, and may continue to update you regarding the progress of our response.
