These service providers include Sailthru and our analytics providers.

Sharing Information for Advertising and Other Promotional Purposes: We may use service providers and third-party advertising service providers to target and serve some of the advertisements you see through InsideHook. We may share your information, or technical or aggregate information, with service providers, third-party advertising service providers, our affiliates, third parties and advertisers for their use in displaying ads through our Services or for other promotional purposes, including displaying ads on other sites and apps.

If you are a California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, or Virginia resident, or a resident of the EEA, UK, Canada, or Switzerland, you may be able to request:
Residents of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, and Virginia also may have sale/targeted advertising opt out rights as well. Applicable law may further provide you with the right to not be discriminated against for exercising your rights. If you have any concerns or complaints about our data processing activities, we urge you to first try to resolve such issues directly with us. However, if applicable, you may make a complaint to the data protection supervisory authority in your country about our processing of your personal data. Residents of certain other countries may be able request one or more of the above under applicable law. Your rights and our responses will vary based on your state or country of residency. You may be located in a jurisdiction where we are not obligated, or are unable, to fulfill a request. In such a case, your request may not be fulfilled. Please note that certain rights and information may be exempt from such requests under applicable law. For example, we need certain information for legal compliance or in order to provide the Services to you. In addition, where you may have these rights, the exercise of them is not absolute. Your rights may, for example, be outweighed by our rights and/or the rights of freedom of expression and information. Under Nevada law, Nevada residents who have purchased goods or services from us may opt out of the “sale” of “covered information” (as such terms are defined under Nevada law). If you are a Nevada resident, you may submit a request to opt out of such activity by emailing tips@insidehook.com. Please note we may take reasonable steps to verify your identity and the authenticity of the request.
Targeted Advertising Opt Out Rights: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, and Virginia residents may opt out of the “sale” of their personal information (as personal information/personal data defined by those states’ laws) or processing or sharing of such information for online targeted advertising purposes. We sell or share certain of your information to third parties that may directly provide you with offers and promotions and opportunities that may be of interest to you. We also allow third parties to receive certain information, such as cookies, IP address, and/or browsing behavior and information about your potential interests or characteristics, to deliver targeted advertising to you on the Services or other services. This activity may also be considered a sale under applicable law. Advertising, including targeted advertising, enables us to provide you certain content for free and allows us to provide you offers relevant to you. Depending on what Services you use, we may sell the following personal information or share or process it for targeted advertising: Contact information; device information and identifier; connection and usage data; demographic and statistical information, including age, date of birth, gender, income and other personal finance information, religion, union or guild membership, and race or ethnicity; interest information including, health and wellness information, lifestyle information, hobbies, product ownership, purchase history or intentions; user-generated content; geolocation; and social media information. Please note that we do not knowingly sell the personal information of minors under 16 years of age without legally-required affirmative authorization. Even if you opt out, you will still see advertising, it just may be less relevant to you, or it may be personalized for you based only on the data that we have collected about you. You must opt out on each device and each browser and for each brand where you want your choice to apply. Your preference may be lost if you clear, or your browser is set to clear, cookies. If you have enabled a legally recognized browser-based opt out preference signal (such as Global Privacy Control) on your browser, we recognize such preference in accordance and to the extent required by applicable law. You will need to turn this on for each browser you use.

By accessing or using the Services or otherwise providing information to us, you consent to the processing and transfer of information in and to the U.S. and other countries.

The legal basis for us processing your Personal Data for the above purposes may be because: (i) you have provided your consent; (ii) it is necessary to for the performance of a contract with you; (iii) the processing is necessary for our compliance with a legal obligation; or (iv) the processing is in our legitimate interests. To the extent provided by applicable law, you may withdraw any consent you previously provided to us, or object at any time on legitimate grounds, to the processing of your Personal Data. In some circumstances, withdrawing your consent to our use or disclosure of your Personal Data will mean that you cannot take advantage of certain products or services.
We may transfer your Personal Data outside Europe to the United States or any country that InsideHook or its service providers may have operations. Such countries do not have the same data protection laws as Europe. Any transfer of your personal information will be subject to a European Commission approved contract (as permitted under the General Data Protection Regulation) that is designed to help safeguard your privacy rights and give you remedies in the unlikely event of a misuse of your personal information. To obtain a copy of the such safeguards please contact us.
