64	64	Sale/Share/Targeted Advertising Opt Out Rights. We do not sell personal information for monetary consideration. However, we may allow our third-party advertising and analytics partners to place cookies and similar tracking technologies on our Sites to help market our products and services and allow them to serve you more relevant advertisements as further described in our Cookie Policy located at [https://wpengine.com/legal/cookies/](https://wpengine.com/legal/cookies/). We may also share or use hashed contact information for this purpose. This activity is known as "sharing" or processing your personal information for targeted ads and may be considered "selling" your personal information under the laws in certain U.S. jurisdictions-such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Oregon, and others. If you (or in applicable states, your authorized agent) would like to opt out of our use or disclosure of your information for such purposes, you can do so through the "Cookie Settings" link or "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link, in a Sites' footer and following the instructions to opt out. 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. Please note that you must opt out on each device and each browser 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 with and to the extent required by applicable law. You will need to turn this on for each browser you use to access our Sites.

We will only disclose, modify, block, or take any other action with respect to personal data for which our customer is a controller at the authorization or direction of the customer in accordance with our agreement with that customer, or as required by law.

We comply with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework ("EU-U.S. DPF"), the UK Extension of the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework ("UK-U.S. DPF"), and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework ("Swiss-U.S. DPF") (collectively, the "DPFs") as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce. We have certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that we adhere to the EU-U.S. DPF Principles with regard to the processing of personal data received from the European Union in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and from the UK (and Gibraltar) in reliance on the UK-U.S. DPF. Further, we adhere to the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles with regard to the processing of personal data received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF. Under the DPFs, we are responsible for the processing of personal data that we collect from you and subsequently transfer to third parties acting as agents on our behalf. We comply with the DPF Principles for all onward transfers of personal data from the EU, UK (and Gibraltar), and Switzerland including the onward transfer liability provisions. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has jurisdiction over our compliance with the DPFs. In certain situations, we may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including requests made to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the DPF Principles, the DPF Principles shall govern. If you have an unresolved privacy or data use concern that we have not addressed satisfactorily, please contact our U.S. based third-party dispute resolution provider, Truste, (free of charge) at [https://feedback-form.truste.com/watchdog/request](https://feedback-form.truste.com/watchdog/request). Under certain conditions you may invoke binding arbitration when other dispute resolution procedures have been exhausted. This is more fully described on the Data Privacy Framework website located at [https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/article/How-to-Submit-a-Complaint-Relating-to-a-Participating-Organization-s-Compliance-with-the-DPF-Principles-dpf](https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/article/How-to-Submit-a-Complaint-Relating-to-a-Participating-Organization-s-Compliance-with-the-DPF-Principles-dpf).
