For residents of California, this section describes how we collect, use, disclose, and/or “sell” (as defined under California law) the personal information of California residents, and the rights you may have under California law. These disclosures are intended to supplement this Privacy Policy with information required by California law.
To understand what personal information we may have collected about you in the past 12 months, and from where we collected it, please see the section Information We Collect above.
We collect his personal information to operate, manage, and maintain our business, to provide our services, and to accomplish our business purposes and objectives, as further described in the Our Use of Personal Information section above. In addition, the financial information we collect (such as credit or debit card information or bank account information) may be considered sensitive personal information. Financial information is processed by authorized payment processors, and this information is only collected and used to process and fulfill your orders, to provide customer service, to ensure security and integrity of your data and our systems, and to comply with legal and regulatory obligations.
We may share personal information with the third parties listed above in the section Our Disclosure of Personal Information. Below we have provided more detail regarding the two ways we share your personal information: (a) “sales” of information and (b) general disclosures of information for a business purpose.
“Sales” of Information
We have marked “sales” in quotation marks because a “sale” under California law broadly includes any disclosure of information in return for any value. This value does not need to be monetary, like in a traditional sale. For example, a “sale” can be when a business provides information collected through cookies to an advertising network that it has hired to promote its own ads—but then the advertising network is able to use the cookie data provided for its own purposes, outside of this particular business relationship.
Mythical Society does not share personal information in exchange for payment and we require that our service providers only use your personal information to perform the services we have asked of them. However, we use advertising networks to help us improve your advertising experience (such as serving advertisements on our behalf across the Internet and providing analytics services). Sharing personal information with the third-party provider while using these tools may fall within the definition of a “sale” of personal information under California law.
In the past 12 months, we have provided Device Information, Internet or Electronic Network Activity Information, and Inferences to Advertising Networks.
We do not sell, or have actual knowledge of any sale of, the personal information of minors under 16 years of age.
Disclosures of Information for a Business Purpose
To manage our business and provide services to you, we sometimes share personal information with third parties. As noted above, these third parties cannot further collect, sell, or use the personal information we share with them except as necessary to perform our purposes, as instructed by us.
In the past 12 months, we may have disclosed the following categories of personal information to the following third parties for our operational business purposes:
Identifiers
Financial and Transactional Information
Demographic Information
User-generated Content
Audio-Visual Information
Device Information
Internet or Electronic Network Activity Information
Interests and Inferences
