Important information for Colorado residents
This section describes how we collect, use and share Personal Information of Colorado
residents in operating our business, including in the context of in-person meetings, at our
events and other offline sales and marketing activities. For purposes of this section,
“Personal Information” has the meaning given in the Colorado Consumer Privacy Act of
2021 (“CCPA”) but does not include information exempted from the scope of the CCPA.
Your Colorado privacy rights. As a Colorado resident, you have the rights listed below.
However, these rights are not absolute, and in certain cases we may decline your request
as permitted by law.

Personal Information during the past 12 months:
● The categories of Personal Information that we have collected.
● The categories of sources from which we collected Personal Information.
● The business or commercial purpose for collecting and/or selling Personal
Information.

● Whether we have disclosed your Personal Information for a business purpose, and
if so, the categories of Personal Information received by each category of third
party recipient.
● Whether we’ve sold your Personal Information, and if so, the categories of Personal
Information sold to each category of third party recipient.
● Access. You can request a copy of the Personal Information that we have collected

we use services that help deliver interest-based ads to you. Our use of some of
these services may be classified under Colorado law as a “sale” of your Personal

information from our users (e.g., device data and online activity data) to help them
serve ads more likely to interest you. You can request to opt-out out of this “sale”
of your personal information here: Do Not Sell My Personal Information
We reserve the right to confirm your Colorado residency to process your requests and will
need to confirm your identity to process your requests to exercise your information,

required. Consistent with Colorado law, you may designate an authorized agent to make a
request on your behalf. In order to designate an authorized agent to make a request on
your behalf, you must provide a valid power of attorney, the requester’s valid
government-issued identification, and the authorized agent’s valid government-issued
identification. We cannot process your request if you do not provide us with sufficient
detail to allow us to understand and respond to it.

● The categories of sources of this information, see the section above entitled
personal information we collect
● The business/commercial purposes for which we collect this information, see the
