We do not share your Personal Information with third parties without your separate consent, except in the following circumstances and as described in this Privacy Policy:
Affiliates. We may share your Personal Information with our corporate parent, subsidiaries, and other affiliates, for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy.
Service providers. We may share your Personal Information with third party companies and individuals that provide services on our behalf or help us operate the Website (such as customer support, hosting, analytics, shipping, payment processing, email delivery, marketing, and database management services). These third parties may use your Personal Information only as directed or authorized by us and are prohibited from using or disclosing your Personal Information for any other purpose.
Partners. We may sometimes share your Personal Information with partners or enable partners to collect information directly via our Website. For example, we may share your Personal Information to selected third party entities that may review and use that information to send email messages or contact you in other ways to provide information to you about their products and services.
Professional advisors. We may disclose your Personal Information to professional advisors, such as lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers, where necessary in the course of the professional services that they render to us.
Governmental authorities. We may disclose your Personal Information to law enforcement, government authorities, and private parties as we believe necessary or appropriate to: (a) protect our, your or others’ rights, privacy, safety or property (including by making and defending legal claims); (b) enforce the terms and conditions that govern the Websites and our products and services; and (c) protect, investigate and deter against fraudulent, harmful, unauthorized, unethical or illegal activity.
Business transfers. We may sell, transfer or otherwise share some or all of our business or assets, in connection with a business transaction (or potential business transaction) such as a corporate divestiture, merger, consolidation, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets, or in the event of bankruptcy or dissolution and may transfer your Personal Information as part of the transferred business or assets to the acquiror in such transaction.
“Sale” of Personal Information. Like many companies, we use services that help deliver interest-based ads to you. We do not interpret the use of these services as a “sale” of your Personal Information to the companies that provide the services. Although we allow the services to collect information from our Website users (e.g., online identifiers and browsing activity) so that they can help serve ads more likely to interest you, the information that is shared is either anonymous, aggregated or de-identified, or is shared pursuant to a service provider agreement. To the extent California law treats these services as a “sale” of your Personal Information, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended, (the “CCPA”) prohibits third parties who purchase Personal Information we hold from reselling it unless you have received explicit notice and an opportunity to opt-out of further sales. Although we do not treat services that help deliver interest-based ads as a “sale” of Personal Information, you may request to opt-out of targeted ads by following the directions set forth in the “Targeted Interest-Based Advertising” section below. Except to the extent California law treats services that help deliver interest-based ads as a “sale” of Personal Information, we do not sell, rent, or otherwise make Personal Information commercially available to any third party and we do not share your Personal Information with unaffiliated third parties for promotional or advertising purposes.
Anonymous Information We Collect
Our Website and online resources also collect other basic information about you that does not directly identify you, but which may correspond with you or a particular device (“Anonymous Information”). We use this Anonymous Information to learn more about how our Website is used and to improve or enhance the Website.

This information includes the IP address of your device; information regarding the pages on our Website that you have visited; time you spent on our Website; date and time of your visits; information about your web browser, device, and operating system; and location of the website visited just before our Website.
How We May Use and Disclose Anonymous Information
Please note that we may use and disclose Anonymous Information for any purpose, except where we are required to treat Anonymous Information as Personal Information under applicable law. In those situations, we may use and disclose Anonymous Information for the purposes for which we use and disclose Personal Information.
In some instances, we may combine Anonymous Information with Personal Information (such as combining your name with your IP address and information regarding the pages on our Website you have visited). If we combine any Anonymous Information with Personal Information, the combined information will be treated by us as Personal Information as long as it is so combined.
Automatic Collection Technologies
We use the following automatic collection technologies to collect Anonymous Information, which may or may not be combined with Personal Information:
· Log Files: Most Internet browsers transmit certain information to websites that you visit, such as your IP address, device type, screen resolution, operating system version, and internet browser type and version.

If you do not want us to share your Personal Information with unaffiliated or non-agent third parties for promotional purposes, you can opt-out by sending your request to info@marketbridge.com. You can also always opt-out by following the opt-out or unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of the email. Please note that such requests may take up to ten (10) business days to become effective.

We aim to comply with requests as soon as reasonably practicable.
· Targeted Interest-Based Advertising. Some of the business partners that collect information about users’ activities on or through the Website may be members of organizations or programs that provide choices to individuals regarding the use of their browsing behavior or mobile application usage for purposes of targeted advertising. You may stop or restrict the placement of cookies on your device or remove them by adjusting your preferences as your browser or device permits. The online advertising industry also provides websites from which you may opt out of receiving targeted ads from data partners and other advertising partners that participate in self-regulatory programs. You can access these and learn more about targeted advertising and consumer choice and privacy, at www.aboutads.info/choices/, https://youradchoices.ca/choices/, www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp, and http://www.youronlinechoices.eu/. Alternatively, for some devices you may use your device’s platform controls in your settings to exercise choices.
Please note you must separately opt out in each browser and on each device. Advertisements on third party websites that contain the AdChoices link may have been directed to you based on information collected by advertising partners over time and across websites. These advertisements provide a mechanism to opt out of the advertising partners’ use of this information for interest-based advertising purposes.
If you choose to opt-out of targeted advertisements, you will still see advertisements online but they may not be relevant to you. Even if you do choose to opt out, not all companies that serve online behavioral advertising are included in this list, so you may still receive some cookies and tailored advertisements from companies that are not listed.

Important Information for California Residents
The CCPA provides consumers who are California residents with specific rights regarding their Personal Information. This section applies if you are a California resident, and describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights. These rights are not absolute and, in certain cases, we may decline your request as permitted by law.
“Legal Categories” of Personal Information
California law requires us to tell you about the Personal Information we collect about you in a certain way – specifically, we need to tie it back to “legal categories” of Personal Information that are listed in the law. To do this, we bundled up the information we gave you above in this Privacy Policy and matched the different types of Personal Information we collect about you with the legal category. Please note that certain pieces of Personal Information may fall into more than one of these categories.
To make things easier to understand, we’ve put this information in the table below that shows:
- The legal category of Personal Information;
- Examples of the types of Personal Information included in each legal category;
- The source(s) from which we collect this type of Personal Information;
- The purpose(s) for why we collect and use your Personal Information for each legal category; and
- The categories of third parties with whom we share your Personal Information for a business purpose or for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising.
We’ve included this information in the table provided below. As noted in the chart, some of the information is considered “sensitive Personal Information” (as defined by California law).
The categories of Personal Information we may have collected in the last twelve (12) months, the source of the information collected and the business purpose for collection are listed in the chart below. We will not collect additional categories of Personal Information or use the Personal Information we collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes without providing you notice. It is possible that we have not collected and/or will not collect information in a particular category.
