Consumers in certain US states have the right to opt-out of either the “sale” or “sharing” of their personal information, or of “targeted advertising,” as these terms are defined in such laws. While we generally do not “sell” personal information in the traditional sense (i.e., for money, and with the exception noted below regarding our affiliate PitchBook), our use of third-party analytics and advertising cookies may be considered “selling,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising,” depending on the applicable law. To exercise these opt-out rights, please click this link: Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.
Consumers in certain US states may also have the right to opt-out of the “sale” or “sharing” of their personal information, or of “targeted advertising,” using an opt-out preference signal. If our website detects that your browser or device is transmitting an opt-out preference signal, such as the “global privacy control”—or GPC— signal, we will opt that browser or device out of cookies on our Site that result in “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising.” If you come to our Site from a different device or from a different browser on the same device, you will need to opt out, or use an opt-out preference signal, for that browser and/or device as well.
Additionally, in the last twelve months, our affiliate, PitchBook Data, Inc. (“PitchBook”), has sold personal information. PitchBook makes information relating to the ownership of privately held companies available to its subscribers. This data includes identifiers (name and contact information) and professional or employment-related information (job titles and other similar information) relating to individuals. You can find out more about PitchBook and its privacy practices here.
