Personal Information Collection, Disclosure, and Sale
For the purposes of this Notice, “Personal Information” means “personal information,” “personal data,” or any analogous term under applicable U.S. state privacy laws (“U.S. State Privacy Laws”). Personal Information does not include information that is: publicly available or lawfully obtained, truthful information that is a matter of public concern; deidentified or aggregated; or otherwise excluded from the scope of applicable U.S. State Privacy Laws.
