Personal Information Collected Automatically

Whenever you visit or interact with the DSC Services online, DSC, as well as any third-party advertisers and/or service providers, may use a variety of technologies that automatically or passively collect information about your online activity. The types of Personal Information that may be collected and the manner in which such information may be collected are described below.

Usage Information: We (and our partners and service providers) may use cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, mobile analytics software, log files, or other technologies to collect certain information about your interactions with the DSC Services. This allows us to keep track of analytics and certain statistical information which enables us to improve the DSC Services and provide you with more relevant content and advertising.

The types of information that we (and our partners and service providers) may automatically collect for these purposes include your browser type, mobile device manufacturer, mobile carrier, phone number, operating system, activations, content, products or services you purchase or access, the page served and the preceding page views or websites visited, any mobile device activity and configurations, and email client.

We may use a Device Identifier to, among other things, provide the DSC Services; help diagnose problems with our servers; analyze trends; track users’ web page, email, and mobile application movements/activities; help identify or gather broad demographic information for aggregate use; and retarget online and mobile advertisements to you across the computers or devices you may use.

In addition, if you choose to turn on your Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or other geolocation functionality when you use our mobile applications, we may collect and use your geolocation information.

Third Party Services and Technologies. We may use third party services, such as Google Analytics, Adobe Marketing Cloud services, and Facebook Custom Audience, to help us track, segment, and analyze usage of the DSC Services, and to help us or those third parties serve more targeted advertising to you on the DSC Services and across the Internet. These third parties may use technologies, such as cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, log files, Flash cookies, or other technologies to track online activity. They may also combine information they collect from your interaction with the DSC Services with information they collect from other sources. We may not have access to information these third parties collect using cookies or other tracking technologies.

To learn more about your  targeted advertising choices, please see the Your Choices section below.

This may include your name, username, demographic information, updated address or contact information, location, interests, and publicly-observed data, such as from social media and other online activity.

We may use information that we receive about you from third-party sources to help us maintain the accuracy of the information we collect, personalize your experience with the DSC Services, target our communications so that we can inform you of products and services or other offers that may be of interest to you, measure the performance of advertisements delivered to you, conduct internal business analysis, and fulfill other business or commercial purposes.

5. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS:

Explanation of Applicable Privacy Rights

Depending on your U.S. state of residence, you may have certain rights in relation to your Personal Information, as described below:

• Right of Access:  
  • You may ask us to confirm whether we are processing your Personal Information and, if so, details regarding our processing of the Personal Information.
  • You may also request that we provide your Personal Information in a portable and, to the extent technically feasible, readily usable format.
• Right to Delete: Subject to certain exceptions, you may request that we delete your Personal Information. There are some reasons we will not be able to fully address your request, such as if we need to complete a transaction for you, to detect and protect against fraudulent and illegal activity, to exercise our rights, for our internal purposes, or to comply with a legal obligation.
• Right to Correct:  Subject to certain exceptions, you may request that we correct inaccuracies in your Personal Information, subject to appropriate verification. We will take commercially reasonable efforts to make the corrections that you request.
• Right to Opt-Out of the Sale or Sharing of Personal Information:You have the right to opt-out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your Personal Information, as such terms are defined in California privacy laws.  This means that, if you opt out, going forward, we will not sell or share your Personal Information with such third parties to use for their purposes, including cross-context behavioral advertising (as defined by California law), unless you later direct us to do so.                                                                                          

  
  

  If you are a resident of Connecticut, Colorado, Utah, or Virginia, you may take advantage of certain privacy rights, such as to request access, correction, deletion, or a copy of your Personal Information.  Because we may “sell” Personal Information as such term is defined in Connecticut and Colorado laws, or engage in “targeted advertising” as such term is defined in Connecticut, Colorado, Utah, and Virginia laws, you may also exercise your right to opt-out of such sales or targeted advertising where available.  You have the right to appeal a denial of your privacy rights.
• Right to Revoke Consent: We may seek your affirmative consent to process your Personal Information for certain purposes. Where applicable, you may revoke your consent at any time.
• Right to Limit Certain Processing Activities or to Object to Certain Processing Activities: Where we have not sought your affirmative consent to process your Personal Information, you may have the right to limit or object to our continued processing of that Personal Information

Where applicable, you also have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

If you exercise any of the foregoing rights, we will not discriminate against you, including by denying access to our products or services or restricting your access to products or services of a certain quality or price level.

How to Submit a Request

To take advantage of your right to know, delete, correct, or portability under California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, or Virginia law, or to submit an appeal of a denial of your privacy rights, please contact us by email at [email protected], or by mail at Attn: Member Services/Privacy Officer, 13335 Maxella Ave, Marina del Rey, CA 90292.  We may request certain information about your interactions with DSC to verify your identity before we can respond to your access, deletion, correction, or portability requests.  DSC will confirm receipt of your request within 10 business days and will respond to your request within 45 calendar days, after proper verification, unless we need additional time, in which case we will let you know.

To take advantage of your right to opt out of the sale or sharing of Personal Information or to opt out of targeted advertising, please click on the Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link which also is on our website footer or email us at [email protected]. We will work to comply with your opt-out request within 15 business days. 

Submitting an opt-out request does not require you to create an account with us.

Alternatively, if you are a California resident, where available, you can use certain preference signals to exercise your sale and sharing opt-out right automatically with all businesses that you interact with online, including DSC Services. If you are a browser-based opt-out preference signal that complies with the CCPA, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC), upon receipt or detection, we will treat the signal as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of Personal Information linked to that browser and any consumer profile we have associated with that browser. Please note that if you use different browsers or browser profiles, you will have to enable the signal on each one that you use.

We value your privacy and will not discriminate in response to your exercise of your privacy rights.

Agent Requests

You may authorize someone to make a privacy rights request on your behalf (an authorized agent). Authorized agents will need to demonstrate that you’ve authorized them to act on your behalf or must demonstrate they have power of attorney pursuant to applicable probate law. DSC retains the right to request confirmation directly from you confirming that the agent is authorized to make such a request, or to request additional information to confirm the agent’s identity. An authorized agent is prohibited from using a consumer’s Personal Information, or any information collected from or about the consumer, for any purpose other than to fulfill the consumer’s requests, for verification, or for fraud prevention.

California Privacy Rights

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides California residents with certain rights in relation to their Personal Information. Pursuant to the CCPA, we are providing the following additional details regarding the categories of Personal Information that we collect, use, and disclose. This section also describes the rights available to you in relation to your Personal Information and how you can exercise your rights. 

Personal Information Collection and Disclosure

The following chart details which categories of Personal Information we have collected from and about California residents in the past twelve (12) months, the source(s) of each category of information, the categories of third parties to whom we have disclosed each category of information for a business purpose, and the categories of third parties to whom we have “sold” or with whom we have “shared” each category of information (as such terms are defined in the CCPA) (where applicable). Please note that the first column in the chart lists by category the types of information described in the “Information We Collect” section above, as required by the CCPA.

Purposes for Collecting Personal Information

As described in more detail in the “Information Use” section above, we collect Personal Information to provide and manage the Services, fulfill our contractual obligations to you, and achieve a variety of legitimate business or commercial purposes.

Disclosures of Personal Information

As detailed in the “Information Disclosure” section above, we disclose Personal Information to fulfill the purposes described above. We will also disclose certain categories of Personal Information to competent governmental and public authorities and other third parties as necessary or appropriate, including when we have a legal or contractual obligation to disclose the information.

Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

As detailed in the chart above, we “sell” and “share” (as such terms are defined in the CCPA) certain categories of Personal Information to and with third parties and have “sold” and “shared” certain categories of Personal Information in the past twelve (12) months for analytics and advertising purposes. Please refer to the chart above for additional details.

We do not “sell” or “share” the Personal Information of individuals we know to be under 16 years of age.

Your California Legal Rights

You have the right to request that we:

• Disclose to you the following information covering the twelve (12) months preceding your request:
  • the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you and the categories of sources from which we collected such information;
  • the specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you;
  • the business or commercial purposes for collecting, selling, or sharing your Personal Information;
  • the categories of third parties to whom we disclosed such Personal Information; and
  • if we sold, shared, or disclosed your Personal Information for a business purpose, two separate lists disclosing:
    • sales and shares, identifying the Personal Information categories that each category of receipt received; and
    • disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the Personal Information categories that each category of recipient obtained.
• Delete the Personal Information that we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions.
• Correct inaccurate Personal Information that we maintain about you, taking into account the nature of the Personal Information and the purposes of the processing.

We will not discriminate against you if you decide to exercise your rights under the CCPA.

If you are interested in exercising any of the above-listed rights, please contact us by email at [email protected], or by mail at Attn: Member Services/Privacy Officer, 13335 Maxella Ave, Marina del Rey, CA 90292.  

To protect your privacy, we may require the matching of up to three pieces of Personal Information provided with your request with information we maintain to verify that it is you making the request. Where applicable, we will use the requested information for verification purposes only. Please note that we may decline a request where we are unable to verify your identity and confirm the Personal Information we maintain relates to you.

You may authorize someone to submit a privacy rights request on your behalf (an “authorized agent”). An authorized agent will need to demonstrate that you’ve authorized them to act on your behalf, unless you have provided the agent with power of attorney pursuant to applicable probate law. Depending on the evidence provided, we may also contact you to verify your identity with us or request confirmation from you that the agent is authorized to submit the request on your behalf.

Exercising Your Sale and Sharing Opt-Out Right

As detailed in the chart above, we “sell” and “share” certain categories of Personal Information to and with third parties. If you are 16 years of age or older, in addition to the rights described above, you have the right to direct us to not “sell” or “share” your Personal Information at any time. To exercise your opt-out right, you may submit a request to us by clicking on the Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link at the bottom of any of the Sites’ web pages and follow the instructions. Additionally, if you would like to opt out of the “selling” or “sharing” of your Personal Information via the cookies and other technologies present on the Sites, you can do so by visiting the cookie preferences in your browser or device. You can learn more about cookies in the “Your Choices” section. 

Upon receipt of your request, we will endeavor to honor it based on the information that we collect and maintain.

Alternatively, where available, you can use certain preference signals to exercise your sale and sharing opt-out right automatically with all businesses that you interact with online, including DSC. If you enable a browser-based opt-out preference signal that complies with the CCPA, such as Global Privacy Control (GPC), upon receipt or detection, we will treat the signal as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of Personal Information linked to that browser and any consumer profile we have associated with that browser. Please note that if you use different browsers or browser profiles, you will have to enable the signal on each one that you use.

An authorized agent may also use the methods described above to submit a request to opt out on your behalf if you provide the agent with signed permission to do so. Please note that we may request from the agent documentation demonstrating that they have your authority to act on your behalf.

To determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of Personal Information; the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the Personal Information; the purpose for which we use the Personal Information; whether we can achieve the purposes through other means; and the applicable legal requirements.

If we de-identify information, we will maintain and use the information in de-identified form and not attempt to re-identify the information except as required or permitted by law.

10. OTHER SITES 

The DSC Services may contain links to other sites that we do not own or operate. This includes links from service providers, fulfillment companies, advertisers, sponsors, or other business partners that may use our logo(s) as part of a co-branding agreement. We are not responsible for these sites or their content, products, services, or privacy policies or practices. These other sites may place their own cookies on your Device and independently collect or solicit Personal Information from you. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third parties with which you engage. You should also assess the authenticity of any site which appears or claims that it is one of the DSC Services (including those linked to through an email or social networking page).

11. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

DSC is a global business and it, or its service providers, may process, transfer and store information about our users on servers located in a number of countries, including the United States. As a result, your Personal Information may be subject to data protection and other laws that differ from those in your country of residence. Additionally, your Personal Information may be disclosed in response to inquiries or requests from government authorities or to respond to judicial process in the countries in which we operate. By using the DSC Services, or by providing us with any Personal Information, you are acknowledging that such information may be transferred to the United States and other jurisdictions in which we operate. Where applicable, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your Personal Information

If you are located in the European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, please note that we may need to transfer your Personal Information to countries that have not been recognized as providing an adequate level of data protection. We generally use EU Standard Contractual Clauses (or other government-approved contracts) or other lawful data transfer mechanisms that provide appropriate safeguards for Personal Information that is transferred to countries that have not been recognized as providing an adequate level of protection.
