(“Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information”)

Last Updated: 28 July 2025

Quick Summary — Know Your Rights

Control how we use your data: you may opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information and ask us to limit use of sensitive data.
How to exercise these rights: submit a webform, email, phone call, or enable a browser‑level Global Privacy Control signal (GPC).
Who can act: you or an authorized agent.
No penalties: we will not discriminate against you for making a request.

1. Scope & Definitions

This Notice applies to California residents under the CCPA/CPRA and to residents of other states with substantially similar privacy laws—including, but not limited to, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, and Virginia.

(Cal. Civ. Code §1798.140 & state analogs)

Sell

Exchanging personal information for monetary or other valuable consideration.

Share

Disclosing personal information to a third party for cross‑context behavioral advertising (ads based on your activity across different websites/apps).

Sensitive Personal Information

Data such as precise geolocation, account‑login credentials, financial information, or government IDs.

2. When We “Sell” or “Share” Data

We may disclose identifiers (e.g., IP address, hashed email) and Internet or other electronic‑network activity to advertising partners and analytics providers so they can show you interest‑based ads on our site and elsewhere. Under certain state privacy laws this may be considered a sale or sharing of personal information.

We do not knowingly sell or share personal information about individuals under 16 years old without affirmative opt‑in consent.

A current list of all such partners is available at usa-addiction.com/partners.

3. How to Opt Out (3 Easy Ways)

Email: Send a message to [email protected] with the subject line “Do Not Sell or Share”

Universal Signal: Turn on GPC or another state‑approved Universal Opt‑Out Mechanism (UOOM) in your browser—our systems automatically respect it

You may also call us toll‑free at (312) 239-8949.

We will process your request within 15  business days and notify all downstream partners so they honor your choice.

4. Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information

We use sensitive data only for “necessary and proportionate” purposes—such as authentication, fraud prevention, and providing requested services. You may still direct us to limit such use via any method in Section 3.

5. Authorized Agents

You may appoint an authorized agent (including those holding a power of attorney) to submit a request on your behalf. The agent must present written authorization, and we may ask you to verify your identity directly.

6. Verification & Response Timeline

To protect your privacy, we verify each request by matching the information you provide (e.g., email, phone, recent transaction details) with data in our records.

We will confirm receipt of your request within 10 business days.

We will fulfill or formally respond within 45 days. If more time is needed (up to an additional 45 days), we will explain why and when you can expect a final response.

7. Additional Ad‑Choice & Cookie Controls

Even after opting out, you will still see ads—just not tailored via sale/sharing of your data. You can further limit third‑party tracking by:

Using the Digital Advertising Alliance opt‑out tool: optout.aboutads.info
Using the Network Advertising Initiative tool: optout.networkadvertising.org
Installing the DAA AppChoices mobile app: aboutads.info/appchoices

8. Effect of Opting Out

Your choice is forward‑looking; we will continue to disclose information to service providers or contractors acting on our behalf as permitted by law. Some site features that rely on personalized ads may function differently.

9. Non‑Discrimination

We will not deny goods or services, charge different prices, or provide a different quality of service if you exercise your opt‑out or limit rights, except as allowed for bona‑fide loyalty or financial‑incentive programs (which we will describe separately if offered).

10. Accessibility

If you need this Notice in an alternative format (e.g., large print, audio), please contact us at [email protected] or (312) 239-8949.

11. Updates to This Notice

We may amend this Notice to reflect changes in the law or our practices. Material updates will be posted here at least 30 days before they take effect. The “Last updated” date above will always show the current version.
