Personal Information We Collect 

California Privacy Laws define personal information as 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. Personal information does not include:

  • information that is lawfully made available from federal, state, or local government records;

To help people make informed privacy decisions, the California Privacy Laws create and define categories of personal information. Some types of personal information may apply to multiple categories. We collect and use the categories of personal information described in Table 1 attached. Depending on your level of interaction with us, we may not have collected your personal information from all of the categories.
