MIST – Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information
Effective Date: 01 December 2024
At MIST, we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This page explains your rights under applicable privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and other applicable regulations, regarding the sale or sharing of your personal information.
1. Your Right to Opt-Out
Under certain privacy laws, such as the CCPA, you have the right to opt-out of the sale or sharing of your personal information to third parties.
- "Sale" refers to the disclosure of your personal information to third parties in exchange for monetary or other valuable considerations.
- "Sharing" refers to sharing your personal data for targeted advertising or cross-context behavioral advertising purposes.
MIST does not sell personal information in the traditional sense (e.g., selling data for monetary compensation). However, we may share some limited information with trusted third-party partners for purposes such as:
- Analytics (e.g., tracking app usage and performance).
- Ad delivery to improve user experience.
- Service enhancement and technical support.
If you would like to opt-out of such sharing, we provide a clear mechanism to exercise your rights.
