California Consumer Privacy Act:
The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) provides California residents with rights to receive certain disclosures regarding the collection, use, and sharing of “Personal Information,” as well as rights to know/access, delete, and limit the sale of Personal Information. The CCPA defines “Personal Information” to mean “information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household.” Certain information we collect may be exempt from the CCPA because it is considered public information (i.e., it is made available by a government entity) or covered by a specific federal privacy law, such as the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
To the extent that we collect Personal Information that is subject to the CCPA, that information, our practices, and your rights are described below.
You have the right to receive notice of the categories of Personal Information we collect, and the purposes for which we will use those categories of Personal Information. The categories we use to describe the information are those enumerated in the CCPA. In the last 12 months (as of the Last Updated date on this Policy), we have collected the following personal information about individuals who have used our Services:
We may use the information we collect from and about you for the following business purposes:
We may also use the information we collect from and about you for the following commercial purposes:
We may share personal information with third-party partners as part of joint marketing and other initiatives. That sharing may constitute a “sale” under California law. In the last 12 months (from the Last Updated date listed at the top of this Policy), we have sold the following categories of Personal Information:
We do not sell personal information about persons under the age of 16 without their consent.
We may sell the categories of personal information identified above to carefully selected third-party partners so that they may inform you of offers, promotions, and services; including, advertising networks, marketing coops, social networks, data analytics providers, and data brokers.
In the last 12 months (from the Last Updated date listed at the top of this Policy, we have disclosed the following categories of personal information for a business purpose:
We may share the categories of personal information identified above with our service providers, our franchisees, our business partners, and financial services companies.
You have the right to request that we disclose to you the Personal Information we collect, use, disclose, or sell. In order to process your request to know/access your Personal Information or delete your Personal Information we may ask you to take additional steps to verify your request or identity.
In order to process your request to know about or delete personal information we collect, disclose, or sell, we must verify your request. We do this by:
You have the right to request access to Personal Information collected about you and information regarding the source of that information, the purposes for which we collect it, and the third parties and service providers with whom we share it.
You have the right to request in certain circumstances that we delete any Personal Information that we have collected directly from you. We may have a reason under the law why we may not be able to comply with your request, or why we may comply with it in a more limited way than you anticipated. If we do, we will explain that to you in our response.
You have the right to be free from discrimination based on your exercise of your CCPA rights.
You have the right to opt out of any sale of your personal information to third parties. To exercise this right, please visit our “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” webpage or call us at (866) 939-4958.
Please note that your right to opt out does not apply to our sharing of personal information with service providers, who are parties we engage to perform a function on our behalf and are contractually obligated to use the personal information only for that function.
You may submit a request to exercise your access and/or deletion rights through one of two means:
Authorized Agent
You may authorize another individual or a business registered with the California Secretary of State, called an authorized agent, to make requests on your behalf.

Residents of the State of Nevada have the right to opt out of the sharing of certain pieces of information with third parties. As explained in our “Our Sharing of Your Information” section above, we may share certain personal information with third-party partners for their own uses who help us ensure that you receive relevant marketing, and may share your information with other third-party partners to bring you offers of interest. If you are a Nevada resident and would like to opt out of this sharing, please email privacy@tradingacademy.com or visit our “Do Not Sell My Information” webpage.
We process personal data on the following legal bases: (1) with your consent; (2) as necessary to perform our agreement to provide Services; and (3) as necessary for our legitimate interests in providing the Services where those interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedom related to data privacy.

Users that reside in the EEA or Switzerland have the right to lodge a complaint about our data collection and processing actions with the supervisory authority concerned. Contact details for data protection authorities are available here.

We may make changes to this Policy from time to time. We will post any changes, and such changes will become effective when they are posted. Your continued use of our Services following the posting of any changes will mean that you accept those changes.
