Troutman Pepper Locke LLP
NOTICE OF RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF SALE/SHARING
As described in our Global Privacy Notice, we may use cookies, pixel tags, and similar tracking technologies (collectively, “Collection Technologies”) to gather personal data automatically when you use, access, or otherwise interact with our websites and other online services (the “Sites”).
Under laws like the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) and other U.S. state privacy laws, our use of Collection Technologies on our Sites may be deemed a “sale” or “sharing” of personal data, or the processing of personal data for “targeted advertising” purposes. Depending on your state of residence, you may have the right to opt out of these practices.
We have set up the following methods for individuals to exercise their right to opt out:
1) Modifying Your Cookie and Collection Technologies Preferences
When you first visit one of our Sites, you will see a banner that lets you choose whether to accept or reject our use of Collection Technologies, except for those labeled “Strictly Necessary,” which are required to operate the Sites. The use of certain other Collection Technologies may be deemed a “sale,” “sharing,” or use of your personal data for targeted advertising under applicable U.S. state privacy laws.
You can set your preferences when you first see the banner. If you want to change your preferences later, you can do so at any time by opening our Cookie Preference Center (by clicking the cookie icon in the footer of our Sites) and updating your settings to turn off the “sale” of your data through Collection Technologies. Your selections will be treated as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal data and/or its use for targeted advertising through those technologies for that browser on that device.
Because your preferences are stored using cookies or similar identifiers: (1) your opt-out choices apply only to the specific browser and device you use when you make them; and (2) if you access our Sites from a different computer, mobile device, or browser, you will need to renew your cookie management choices on that browser or device.
2. Opt‑Out Preference Signals (e.g., Global Privacy Control)
You can also exercise your opt-out rights by using an opt-out preference signal, such as the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”), from a browser or browser extension that supports it. To download and use a browser that supports GPC, please visit: https://globalprivacycontrol.org/orgs.
When we detect a valid GPC or similar opt-out signal from your browser, we will treat it as a request to opt out of any “sale” or “sharing” of your personal data and/or its use for targeted advertising through Collection Technologies for that browser on that device.
If you choose to use an opt‑out preference signal, you will need to enable it separately in each supported browser or browser extension you use. Using an opt‑out preference signal will not affect Collection Technologies that are Strictly Necessary to operate our Sites.
3. Additional Information
To learn more about how we use Collection Technologies and how we process personal data more generally, including the rights that may be available to you under U.S. state privacy laws, please review our Global Privacy Notice and our California Notice at Collection. Please note that we do not sell, share, or use for targeted advertising any information that we receive from our clients in the course of providing legal services. That client information is processed under our client agreements and professional obligations and is not covered by our Global Privacy Notice, our California Notice at Collection, or this Notice of Right to Opt Out.
