4) Sharing Information with Third Parties

We may share your personal information with the following third parties:

1. Content Partners: Any content that you post publicly using the Service, for example a rating of a business, can be accessed and used by a third party by virtue of the content being made public.
2. Service Providers: We rely on certain third party service providers to support or provide services for us in connection with your use of the Service, such as communications and hosting, security and fraud prevention, technical and customer support, tracking and reporting usage of the Service, quality assurance testing, payment processing, marketing, and other functions. We may share your personal information with these third party service providers so that they can fully perform their services. 
3. Aggregate or Anonymous Information: We may share user information that has been anonymized (meaning you cannot be identified) with third parties.
4. Business Transfers: We may share your information with our parent companies, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under common control. If another company acquires PetaTera, or all or substantially all of our assets, that company will possess the same information, and will collect, use, and disclose the information only as described in this Privacy Policy.
5. Investigations and Legal Disclosures: We may investigate and disclose information from or about you if we have a good faith belief that such investigation or disclosure: (a) is reasonably necessary to comply with legal or law enforcement processes, such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute, judicial proceeding, or other legal process or law enforcement request; (b) is helpful to prevent, investigate, or identify possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service; or (c) protects our rights, reputation, property, or that of our users, affiliates, or the public. 
6. Links: The Service may link to third party-controlled websites, like a business’s URL. Except as set forth herein, we do not share your personal information with them, and are not responsible for their privacy practices.  We encourage you to review the terms of service and privacy policy provided by each such third party-controlled website.

If we are required to transfer your personal data to a country outside that in which we collected it pursuant to the above-listed circumstances, we will do so in accordance with the applicable data privacy legislation.  The lawful requirements will depend on the flow of personal data, meaning it will depend on whether the sharing of personal data is cross-border and which countries are involved.  At all times, we will ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to your personal data outside the country in which you are based.

5) Security

We use various safeguards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and after we receive it. However, no method of transmission over the internet or via mobile device, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

6) California Residents: Your California Privacy Rights

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), California residents have certain rights around PetaTera’s collection, use, and sharing of their personal information.

PetaTera does not sell your personal information and will not do so in the future without providing you with notice and an opportunity to opt-out of such sale, as required by law. Similarly, we do not offer financial incentives associated with our collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information.

PetaTera collects various categories of personal information when you use the Service, including account information, identifiers, commercial information, personal information which forms part of contributions to the Service, internet or other electronic network or device activity information, geolocation data, preferences, communications related to the Service and professional information. A more detailed description of the information PetaTera collects and how we use it is provided above in Section 1 (Information We Collect) and in Section 2 (How We Use Your Personal Information). Section 4 (Sharing Information With Third Parties) describes the categories of third parties with whom we share personal information, and what information may be shared under different circumstances.

If you are a resident of California, you have the right to request to know what personal information has been collected about you, and to access that information. You also have the right to request deletion of your personal information, though exceptions under the CCPA may allow PetaTera to retain and use certain personal information notwithstanding your deletion request. You can learn more about how to submit a data rights request by contacting us using the contact details above. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under the CCPA. An agent may submit a request on your behalf, but you must verify that your agent is authorized to do so.

Separate from the CCPA, California’s Shine the Light law gives California residents the right to ask companies what personal information they share with third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes. We do not disclose your personal information to third parties for the purpose of directly marketing their goods or services to you unless you request such disclosure. If you have any questions regarding this policy, or would like to change your preferences, you may contact us using the details listed above.

7) Nevada Residents: Your Nevada Privacy Rights

Nevada law (SB 220) requires website operators to provide a way for Nevada consumers to opt-out of the sale of certain information that the website operator may collect about them. PetaTera does not sell your personal information to third parties as defined in Nevada law, and will not do so in the future without providing you with notice and an opportunity to opt-out of such sale as required by law. If you have any questions regarding our data privacy practices or our compliance with Nevada data privacy law, please contact us using the contact details above.

8) Data Subject Rights

In certain circumstances, and depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Request access to your personal data which enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
• Request correction of incomplete or inaccurate personal data that we hold about you. 
• Request erasure or deletion of your personal data. 
• Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) or where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
• Request restriction of processing of your personal data. 
• Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. 
• Withdraw the consent you have provided where we are relying on consent to process your personal data.
• Complain to the appropriate regulator for any data protection issues. We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the regulator so please contact us in the first instance.

To exercise one of the above rights, please contact us using the details provided above.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure you are able to exercise the right you wish to exercise. This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by email or by posting a notice on our website and in our app prior to or on the effective date of the changes. By continuing to access or use the Service after those changes become effective, you acknowledge the revised Privacy Policy.
