 Exercising Your Privacy Options

To exercise any of the above options, you may contact us at:

Do Not Track Signals. CalOPPA requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser Do Not Track (“DNT”) signals. DNT is a privacy preference you can set in your web browser to indicate that you do not want certain information about your webpage visits collected across websites when you have not interacted with that service on the page. For details, including how to turn on DNT, see here. Because there currently isn’t an industry or legal standard recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we don’t respond to them at this time.

• Third Party Websites

This Privacy Notice applies only to our Services. Our Services may contain links to other websites including those that permit online transactions. We have no control over the privacy practices or the content of any of our business partners, advertisers, sponsors, or other third parties we link to from our Services. Ridar Systems does not endorse, approve, or certify these other websites, and we do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, efficacy, or timeliness of the information contained on those websites. You should check the applicable privacy notice of the website sponsor when linking to other websites.

• Information Retention

Ridar Systems uses several criteria to determine how long we should keep categories of Personal Data. We will retain your Personal Data for the time period reasonably necessary to achieve the business purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Please understand that residual copies of the Personal Data can be stored in locations or formats that make complete erasure extremely difficult. The best way to ensure you control your information is to give us only the Personal Data that you are completely comfortable sharing with us.

1. Security

Ridar Systems takes reasonable steps to secure your Personal Data. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to ensure that Personal Data is stored and processed responsibly. However, no internet transmission is ever fully secure, and we cannot guarantee that information transmitted via our Website will remain confidential at all times.

1. Age Restrictions

Ridar Systems takes children’s privacy seriously. By accepting the Privacy Notice through your use of our Services, you certify that you are at least 18 years of age or submitting Personal Data to us with the consent of a parent or guardian. If we find that a minor has submitted any information to us without parental consent, we will delete it immediately upon discovery.

We may update or change this Privacy Notice from time to time. We will post the changes on our Website and software, and will indicate the effective date. Your continued use of services after the changes are effective constitutes your acceptance of the Privacy Notice.
