That said, we may share information with third-party advertising partners for the purpose of promoting our Services as described above, such as for cross-context behavioral advertising.

Additional Privacy Rights for Residents of Certain States Including California.
In addition to the rights described in the section titled Your Privacy Rights and Choices, you may also have the following rights.
Non-Discrimination. Residents of certain states have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for the exercise of their rights conferred by applicable law.
Authorized Agent. Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. To authorize an agent, provide written authorization signed by you and your designated agent and contact us as set forth in Contact Us below for additional instructions.
Verification. To protect your privacy, we will take steps to reasonably verify your identity before fulfilling your request. These steps may involve asking you to provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative, or to answer questions regarding your account and use of our Services. If we cannot verify your identity or authority to make a request, we may not be able to fulfill your request.
Appeal. You may have the right to appeal our decision or response to your request. To exercise your right to appeal, you can submit an appeal request using the same method used to submit your original request, including by contacting us as set forth in Contact Us below.
Financial Incentives.
Refer-a-Friend and Similar Incentive Programs. Wrench Group, LLC and its subsidiaries, including Mr. Plumber by Metzler & Hallam, may offer referral programs or other similar promotions that allow you to receive discounts or other benefits. For example, we may offer you discounts or promotional items or credit in connection with these programs, wherein you provide your personal information (such as email address and/or telephone number) in exchange for a reward or provide personal information regarding your friends or colleagues (such as their email address) and receive rewards when they sign up to use our Services. (The referred party may also receive rewards for signing up via your referral.)
Because these programs involve the collection of personal information, they may be interpreted as a “financial incentive” program. These programs are entirely voluntary and allow us to grow our business and provide additional benefits to you. You will have to join, or affirmatively opt-in, to any incentive program. The value of your data to us depends on how you ultimately use our Services, whereas the value of the referred party’s data to us depends on whether the referred party ultimately uses our Services. Said value will be reflected in the incentive offered in connection with each program.
You may withdraw, or opt-out, of any program by following the instructions in the applicable program description and terms or by contacting us as set forth in Contact Us below.
De-Identified Information. If we create or receive de-identified information, we will not attempt to reidentify such information, except to comply with applicable law.
California Shine the Light. The California “Shine the Light” law permits users who are California residents to request and obtain from us once a year, free of charge, a list of the third parties to whom we have disclosed their personal information (if any) for their direct marketing purposes in the prior calendar year, as well as the type of personal information disclosed to those parties.
Right for minors to remove posted content. Where required by law, California residents under the age of 18 may request to have their posted content or information removed from the publicly-viewable portions of the Services by contacting us directly as set forth in Contact Us below.
The Services are not directed to children under 18 (or other age as required by local law), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has uploaded personal information to our site without your consent, you may contact us as described in Contact Us below. If we become aware that a child has provided us with personal information in violation of applicable law, we will delete any personal information we have collected, unless we have a legal obligation to keep it.
Third-Party Websites/Applications. The Services may contain links to other websites/applications and other websites/applications may reference or link to our Services. These third-party services are not controlled by us. We encourage our users to read the privacy policies of each website and application with which they interact. We do not endorse, screen, or approve, and are not responsible for, the privacy practices or content of such other websites or applications. Providing personal information to third-party websites or applications is at your own risk.
