“Sales” of Personal Information. California law requires that we provide transparency about personal information we “sell,” which, for the purposes of the CCPA, broadly means scenarios in which Hanna has shared personal information with third parties in exchange for valuable consideration. As described above in the “Targeted Advertising” section above, we work with advertising partners that collect identifiers and Internet network activity information from our Sites for the purpose of delivering targeted advertisements on our Sites and other websites. This activity may be considered a “sale” under the CCPA and for purposes of the CCPA we “sell” identifiers, commercial information and Internet or other electronic network activity information to our advertising partners to show you ads that are targeted to your interests.
You have the right to opt out of these “sales” at any time by visiting our Do Not Sell My Personal Information page. We do not knowingly sell personal information about consumers under the age of 16.
We offer various financial incentives. For example, we may provide discounts or other benefits to customers who sign up to receive our marketing emails or submit product reviews.

In some cases, we may provide additional terms and conditions for a financial incentive, which we will provide to you when you sign up. The value of your personal information is reasonably related to the value of the offer or discount presented to you.
