- The right to opt out of the processing of your personal information for purposes of targeted advertising, the sale of personal information, and/or profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects. We treat any request to opt out of the processing of your personal information for purposes of targeted advertising, the sale of personal information, and/or profiling as a request to delete your personal information.
