Residents of certain states may have additional personal information rights and choices. Please see Your State Privacy Rights for more information.
Your State Privacy Rights
State consumer privacy laws may provide their residents with additional rights regarding our use of their personal information. Therefore, depending on your location, you might have different rights applicable to you and your data. Osinachi.org responds to rights requests according to applicable local law.
California's "Shine the Light" law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our App that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to osinachi.org@gmail.com or write us at the address listed under Contact Information at the end of this document.
We must verify your identity before responding to your request. We do this by asking you to provide information that we can match against information we may have about you already. We may need to follow up with you to request more information to verify your identity. We will not use Personal Information we collect in connection with verifying or responding to your request for any purpose other than responding to your request.
We may have a reason under the law why we do not have to comply with your request, or why we may comply with it in a more limited way than you anticipated. If we do, we will explain that to you in our response. If you are entitled to appeal a decision regarding a consumer rights request, you must follow the process set forth in the notice of denial.
Sales of Personal Information
To personalize our ads and marketing experiences, we work with advertising and analytics partners and social media sites.
The Personal Information we might "sell" includes your identifiers, online activity information, and customer records. When you log in to your account on a web page or interact with osinachi.org materials where cookies are present, that may be considered a "sale" of your Personal Information. If you want to opt out of this use, please contact us at 714-844-0900, or send us an email at osinachi.org@gmail.com.
We do not sell the personal data of children under the age of 18.
How we respond to do not track signals
The "Do Not Track" ("DNT") privacy preference is an option that may be made in some web browsers allowing you to opt-out of tracking by websites and online services. At this time, global standard DNT technology is not yet finalized and not all browsers support DNT. We therefore do not recognize DNT signals and do not respond to them.
