Reviewing and correcting personal information
We take your privacy very seriously. The purpose of this Privacy Notice is to disclose to you what information we may collect from you, how we collect it, with whom we share it, and certain other matters related to such information, including the choices you have regarding our collection of information and our use and disclosure to other parties of information we have collected from you.

When other information, such as a hobby or demographic-identifier, is associated with personal information, it also becomes personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Notice.
