6. Analytics and Advertising

We use analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to help us understand how users access and use the Services. In addition, we work with agencies, advertisers, ad networks, and other technology services to place ads about our products and services on other websites and services.

We also use audience matching services (which is a type of Interest-based Advertising) to reach people (or people similar to people) who have visited our Services or are identified in one or more of our databases (“Matched Ads”). This is done by us providing a list of hashed email addresses to an ad partner or incorporating a pixel from an ad partner into our own Services, and the ad partner matching common factors between our data and their data. For instance, we incorporate the Facebook pixel on our Services and may share your email address with Facebook as part of our use of Facebook Custom Audiences.

the purpose of collecting a child's and a parent's name and online contact information, is to protect the safety of a child, and where such information is not used or disclosed for any purpose unrelated to the child's safety;
we collect a persistent identifier and no other personal information and such identifier is used for the sole purpose of providing support for the internal operations of our Services; or Otherwise permitted or required by law.
If we receive the verifiable consent of a child's parent or guardian to collect, use and/or disclose the child's information, we will only collect, use and disclose the information as described in this privacy policy. Some features of our Services permit a child user to enter comments, such as forums and chat rooms, through which the child could provide personal information that would be visible to other users. If you are the parent or guardian of a child user, please advise your child of the risks of posting personal information on our Services or any other site.

Parental/Guardian Rights
If you are a parent or guardian, you can review or have deleted your child's personal information, and refuse to permit further collection or use of your child's information. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us as provided in the “Contact Wonksknow” section below.

Forums and Chats
We may offer forums and chat rooms that enable children participating in the YoungWonks Program or ProWonks Program to communicate with others on or through our Services. Please be aware that anyone may read postings on a forum or in a chat room. Furthermore, any information which is posted to a forum or chat room could include personal information, which would be disclosed and available to all users of that forum or chat room, and is therefore no longer private. We do not control the types of information your child can send or post through these features. We encourage parents to educate their children about safety online and carefully monitor their children's use of social features. We cannot guarantee the security of information that any user discloses or communicates online in public areas such as forums and chat rooms. Those who do so, do so at their own risk. We reserve the right to monitor the content of the forums and chat rooms but we are not obligated to do so. If age inappropriate content or potentially identifiable information is seen, it may be removed or edited by us for security, privacy and/or legal reasons. We will not republish postings from forums or chat rooms anywhere on the Web.

We do not knowingly “sell,” as that term is defined under the CCPA, the personal information of minors under 16 years old who are California residents. If you are a California resident under 18 years old and registered to use the Services, you can ask us to remove any content or information you have posted on the Services. To make a request, email us at the email address set out in “Wonksknow Contact” section with “California Under 18 Content Removal Request” in the subject line, and tell us what you want removed. We will make reasonable good faith efforts to remove the post from prospective public view, although we cannot ensure the complete or comprehensive removal of the content and may retain the content as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

Third Party Social Features and Links.
Our Services, including our YoungWonks parent app and portal, may contain links to other websites, chat rooms, or other resources that we provide for your convenience but that are not owned or operated by us. These sites are not under our control, and we are not responsible for the content available on other sites. Such links do not imply any endorsement of material on our part and we expressly disclaim all liability with regard to your access to such sites. Access to any other websites linked to from the Services is at your own risk. For example, the YoungWonks parent app provides links to Facebook, Yelp and Google review pages so that parents can easily post reviews. Parents or guardians may also use links that we provide in the YoungWonks parent app to conveniently post photos of their children on their Facebook or other social media accounts. We may offer our content through social media. Any information you provide to us when you engage with our content (such as through our brand page) is treated in accordance with this privacy policy. Also, if you publicly reference our Services on social media (e.g., by using a hashtag associated with Wonksknow in a tweet or post), we may use your reference on or in connection with our Services.

When you interact with these other sites, products and services they may independently collect information about you and solicit information from you. The information collected and stored by those parties remains subject to their separate and independent privacy policies. You should consult the respective privacy policies of these parties. We have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of linked sites, products or services.

16. Additional Disclosures for Data Subjects in Europe.

A. Roles
Data protection laws in Europe distinguish between organizations that process personal data for their own purposes (known as “controllers”) and organizations that process personal data on behalf of other organizations (known as “processors”). Wonksknow acts as a controller with respect to personal data collected as you interact with our websites, emails, and advertisements. In some instances, Wonksknow acts a processor on behalf of a school or other educational institution, which is the controller. Any questions that you have relating to the processing of personal data by Wonksknow as a processor should be directed to the relevant school or educational institution.

B. Lawful Basis for Processing.
Data protection laws in Europe require a “lawful basis” for processing personal data. Our lawful bases include where: (a) you have given consent to the processing for one or more specific purposes, either to us or to our service providers, partners, or clients; (b) processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you; (c) processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation; or (d) processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or a third party, and your interests and fundamental rights and freedoms do not override those interests. Where applicable, we will transfer your personal data to third countries subject to appropriate or suitable safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses.

C. Your Data Subject Rights.
You have the right to access, rectify, or erase any personal data we have collected about you. You also have the right to data portability and the right to restrict or object to our processing of personal data we have collected about you. In addition, you have the right to ask us not to process your personal data (or provide it to third parties to process) for marketing purposes or purposes materially different than for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by you. You may withdraw your consent at any time for any data processing we do based on consent you have provided to us.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us as set out in the “Contact Wonksknow” section above and specify which right you are seeking to exercise. We will respond to your request within 30 days. We may require specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and process your request. If personal data about you has been processed by us as a processor on behalf of a school or other educational institution and you wish to exercise any rights you have with such personal data, please inquire with the school or other educational institution directly. If you wish to make your request directly to us, please provide the name of the school or other educational institution on whose behalf we processed your personal data. We will refer your request to that school or other educational institution, and will support them to the extent required by applicable law in responding to your request.

Please note that we retain information as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, and may continue to retain and use information even after a data subject request for purposes of our legitimate interests, including as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and enforce our agreements.

If you have any issues with our compliance, you may contact us as set out in the “Contact Wonksknow” section above. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection regulator in your jurisdiction.
