Exercising Your Rights

To exercise the rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:

Facebook Pixel Tracking

PBHS uses Facebook pixel tracking to help us improve the effectiveness of Facebook Ads and identify audiences on Facebook that may be interested in our services. You can opt out of future tracking by using the form below. Additionally you may request deletion of your existing data from Facebook by visiting this link https://www.facebook.com/help/contact/784491318687824

Your request to not sell your data will be stored for this browser and device

If you clear your cookies, your preference will be forgotten. While PBHS does not “sell” personal information of its readers as the term “sell” is traditionally understood, “sell” under the CCPA is broadly defined. It includes the sharing of personal information with third parties in exchange for something of value, even if no money changes hands. For example, sharing an advertising or device identifier to a third party may be considered a “sale” under the CCPA.

Authorizing an Agent

You may designate an authorized agent to submit your consumer request on your behalf, so long as the authorized agent has your written permission to do so and you have taken steps to verify your identity directly with us.

Verifying Your Request

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period.

To verify your identity, we ask that you to provide us with the following information when you submit your request: (1) first name, (2) last name, and (3) phone number or email. We will use the above information to verify your identity. Depending on your type of request or the information requested by you, we may require additional information to verify your identity and fulfill your request.

California law also requires that we disclose how we respond to “do-not-track requests” from our users. At this time, we do not currently respond to “do-not-track” requests from our users’ browsers.

Other Jurisdictions

If you request that we erase or forget your personal information, we will comply with your request to the extent permitted by law (sometimes other applicable laws require that we keep certain personal information). When we maintain personal information because of a legal requirement, the personal information will be used only for that purpose and maintained only for the amount of time required to comply with applicable law.
