In the past twelve months, we have provided the following categories of information to advertising networks, data analytics providers, social media networks, affiliates, data connectivity platforms, digital behavioral data solution providers, marketing platforms and automation software providers, tag management systems, and video sharing platforms in ways that could be considered a “sale” under California law:

Under California law, the ARISETM program may be considered a financial incentive provided in exchange for the collection, use, and retention of personal information.
