How You May Share Personal Information

email. Please note that the influencer is responsible for sending these emails. If you wish to unsubscribe from
the influencer’s emails, please follow the instructions within the email or contact the influencer directly.
Privacy Choices
Access to information. To keep your information accurate, current, and complete, please contact us as
specified below. We will take reasonable steps to update or correct information in our possession that you
have previously submitted via the Services.
Opt out of marketing communications. You may opt out of marketing-related emails from us by following
the opt-out or unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of the emails you receive from us. You may continue
to receive service-related and other non-marketing emails. You may also continue to receive emails from
any influencers you subscribe to until you have opted out of emails from that influencer.
Online tracking opt-out. There are a number of ways to limit online tracking, which we have summarized
below:
● Blocking cookies in your browser. Most browsers let you remove or reject cookies, including cookies
used for interest-based advertising. To do this, follow the instructions in your browser settings. Many
browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. For more information about
cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and
delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.
● Using privacy plug-ins or browsers. You can block our websites from setting cookies used for interestbased ads by using a browser with privacy features, like Brave, or installing browser plugins like Privacy
Badger, Ghostery, or uBlock Origin, and configuring them to block third party cookies/trackers. You can
also opt out of Google Analytics by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at: https://
tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Note that because these opt-out mechanisms are specific to the device or browser on which they are
exercised, you will need to opt-out on every browser and device that you use.

services that you visit. We currently do not respond to "Do Not Track" or similar signals. To find out more
