Sensitive Information Practices
We do not directly collect Sensitive Personal Information, including information related to race or ethnicity, religious beliefs, precise geolocation, LGBTQ+ status, health conditions, financial account details, or citizenship status. However, we may indirectly collect information through automated technologies such as cookies regarding your interactions with web pages, which could suggest interest in sensitive topics or affiliation with certain groups. For instance, visiting pages focused on a particular ethnicity or health-related topic may imply interest in those subjects. We do not draw such inferences ourselves, but our affiliated companies or other third parties with whom we share information may do so. Where state or local laws restrict the collection of Sensitive Personal Information without consent, our affiliates will refrain from making such inferences. We do not collect or use personal information relating to individuals under the age of 18.
