We may share certain identifiers and internet activity with analytics and advertising partners for cross-context behavioral advertising (which may be considered a “sale” or “share” under some U.S. state privacy laws). You may opt out as described in the Your Privacy Rights section.

Professional/Employment Information: If you choose to provide, e.g., professional role for survey or feedback purposes.
Inferences: Preferences or interests derived from your interactions with our services.
Sensitive Personal Information: Health-related information you voluntarily provide in messages or forms. We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes other than those permitted by applicable law (e.g., to provide requested services, ensure security, or comply with law).

Retention: We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. See Retention of Personal Information below.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and our partners use cookies, local storage, pixels, SDKs, and similar technologies to operate our services, remember preferences, analyze traffic, and deliver or measure advertising. You can manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through our site preferences. If you block or delete cookies, some features may not function as intended.

Types of Cookies

Strictly Necessary: Required for core site functionality and security.

Functional: Remember preferences and settings.
Advertising: Support delivery of relevant ads and measure their effectiveness.

Your Choices

Browser Controls: Adjust cookie preferences in your browser or device settings.
Global Privacy Control (GPC): We treat a valid GPC signal as a request to opt out of sales/sharing for the browser sending the signal.
Email Preferences: You can opt out of marketing emails by using unsubscribe instructions in those emails or by contacting us.

Disclosure of Personal Information

We may disclose personal information to the following categories of recipients for the purposes described above:

Data “Sales,” “Sharing,” and Targeted Advertising

We do not sell personal information for money. We may disclose identifiers and internet activity to advertising and analytics partners for cross-context behavioral advertising or targeted advertising. Under some state laws (e.g., California), this may be considered a “sale” or “sharing.” You may opt out of such sales/sharing by sending a request as described below or by enabling a browser-based Global Privacy Control signal.

Retention of Personal Information

We retain personal information for as long as needed to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, including to provide services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary by data category and context, such as the duration of your account, applicable limitation periods, and regulatory requirements. When retention is no longer necessary, we delete, de-identify, or aggregate the information consistent with applicable law.

Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against accidental, unlawful, or unauthorized access, destruction, loss, alteration, or disclosure. No system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any credentials used to access our services and for notifying us of any suspected unauthorized use.

Opt-Out of Sales/Sharing/Targeted Advertising: Email us or use a browser that sends a valid Global Privacy Control signal, which we treat as an opt-out for that browser.

Children’s Privacy

Our services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete such information as required by law.

HIPAA and Health Information

GO-OTE is not a covered entity or business associate under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). We do not request protected health information. If you choose to share health-related details with us (e.g., in an inquiry), we will use them only to respond to your request or as otherwise permitted by law and this Privacy Policy.

Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Some browsers transmit “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals. Our services currently do not respond to DNT signals. We do, however, recognize and honor a valid Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal as an opt-out of sales/sharing for the browser that sends the signal.

International Users

We are based in the United States. If you access our services from outside the United States, you understand that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States and other jurisdictions that may have data protection laws different from those in your jurisdiction.

Third-Party Content and Links

Our services may reference third-party content, tools, or websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing information to them.
