3. Sharing of Information
Disclosure for Business and Commercial Purposes.
We may disclose the below-specified categories of information for our business or commercial purposes, including the following:
Disclosure to Our Service Providers
We may share all categories of your collected personal information as necessary with our third-party service providers (which may include Company affiliates) who perform various business operations, solely for our benefit or on our behalf, under our instructions and in compliance with appropriate contractual, technical and organizational security measures to protect your data from unauthorized use, retention, or disclosure. For example, we may partner with other companies to provide you member support services, authentication services, prevent fraud on our Services, process payments, administer our promotions, referral programs, sweepstakes, and surveys, perform analytics, maintain the accuracy of our databases, deliver marketing and communications, limit delivery of repetitive or unnecessary marketing or communications, facilitate your gift card purchases, fulfill your product purchases, place and fulfill your takeout orders, and administer your rewards or payments.
Disclosure to Our Business Partners
We work with various types of third-party business partners to offer you our Cash Back shopping Services. We may share the following types of information with the following types of Business Partners.
Affiliate Partners
When you click on a link to a merchant site presented on our Services to start your Cash Back shopping, you evidence your intent to interact with that business through our Services, and thereby are directing us to disclose certain information about you (including the link you clicked in our Services and a unique ID assigned to track that your shopping originated from our Services) to an affiliate network to properly account for your purchases with a merchant. For a small number of merchants that do not utilize an affiliate network, this information is provided directly to the merchant. The Affiliate Partner will collect Internet and Network Activity information (excluding any Inbox Data) about your use of our Services in relation to the merchant site, products, or offers. Our Affiliate Partners collect this information to track the shopping trip, but certain of them may also use this information to measure performance, contribute it to their own user profiles and/or combine it with information they collect elsewhere, which they may make available for use by their other clients business clients. In such case, our sharing with certain of these Affiliate Partners could be considered a “sale” of your personal information as that term is defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), and the opt-out we offer for California consumers in Section 5, below, would signal these Affiliate Partners to not collect or use your information from our Services except as necessary to validate and provide your Cash Back.
In addition, to the limited extent that you are a California resident and we target direct marketing to you or personalize the offers you see in our Services based on the profile data we compile from your behavior tracked via our Services, for the direct benefit of a particular merchant, this marketing or personalization may be considered a “sale” of your personal information under CCPA. In this circumstance, the opt-out we provide for California residents in Section 5, below, would cover this type of targeted marketing and personalization.
Referral Marketing Partners
In order to expand your options to sign up for our Services and start your Cash Back shopping from third-party sites where you learn about our Services, we contract with certain referral marketing business partners to enable that functionality, which may require that we share certain data about you with them. For example, if you are referred to our Services from a business partner’s websites, we may provide that partner with information about your sign up to validate the referral and activate your Services account access from the partner’s site.
In addition, we may share information about whether you have made a purchase with us recently and whether you have installed our mobile app or browser extension so that the partner can personalize their email and site content to you. For California residents, this information sharing about your behavior in our Services may be deemed a sale, so we provide an opt-out opportunity in Section 5, below.
Financial Partners
For the purposes of providing you additional redemption options for your Cash Back and to market our co-branded credit cards to you, we may share your collected information, including Identifiers with financial business partners, which may include Leafy Rewards Companies. If you select loyalty points or other alternative methods of receiving your Cash Back, you are directing us to share your personal information, as necessary, with the relevant financial partner to facilitate that transaction. If you indicate that you would like to receive information about our co-branded credit cards from our financial partner(s), you are also directing Company to provide your information to such third parties to enable them to provide that information.
To the extent we share personal information about you with our financial partners in order to facilitate their marketing purposes, this could be considered a “sale” of your personal information for California residents, and you may opt-out of this targeted marketing in Section 5, below.
Disclosure to Digital Advertising Providers
To provide us with advertising and marketing services, we partner with certain third parties that automatically collect Internet and Network Activity information about your use of the Services, such as your browsing history, IP address, pages viewed, and links clicked, so that they can use this information to serve you ads for our Services on other sites. These third parties may also use this collected information to draw inferences about you for their own purposes or collect personal information about your online activities over time and across different websites (in addition to our Services) to help predict your preferences and to display (and enable other third parties to display) ads to you that are more likely to be of interest to you. Note that this Privacy Policy covers only our use of data and does not include use of data by such third parties. If you wish to opt out of interest-based advertising, please visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/. For California residents, the sharing of your information with certain third parties for the purposes of online targeted advertising may be considered a “sale” of your personal information per the CCPA, of which you can opt-out in Section 5, below.
Disclosure to Other Leafy Rewards Companies
We work closely with our affiliated businesses and companies within the Leafy Rewards Inc and share your personal information for our internal business administration. Some of our Service Providers and Business Partners with whom we share personal information, as described above, may include other Leafy Rewards Companies. In addition, we may also share information in the categories of Identifiers (email address), Commercial Information (product metrics), and Internet and other Network Activity (except Inbox Data) with our affiliates within the Leafy Rewards for those corporate affiliates to analyze and monitor usage and trends to improve their services and websites and for strategic planning purposes at the Leafy Rewards level. Our opt-out and delete request functionality will serve to remove you from this sharing.

Leafy Rewards ID is a unified program that allows you to easily connect to other Leafy Rewards services by a single log-in function, share your account information and join a loyalty program with the Leafy Rewards companies jointly participating in the Leafy Rewards ID program. Your data will only be shared if you chose to connect to another Leafy Rewards ID service. By connecting to another Leafy Rewards ID service, you direct the Leafy Rewards ID services to share your data for the purposes explained in our joint privacy policy. We share your account credentials and profile information (username, email address, encrypted password) and related personal identification (first and last name and address) and payment information stored in our Services with the Leafy Rewards ID services. This service is jointly provided by the Leafy Rewards ID Services as directed by you, if you sign up with another Leafy Rewards ID Service. As long as you do not connect to another Leafy Rewards service, your identifiers (username, email address, encrypted password, first name, last name and address) are shared only with our parent company, Leafy Rewards, Inc., for the purposes of operating our authentication service. If you are connected to another service with a Leafy Rewards ID account and wish to delete other Leafy Rewards ID accounts, please reach out to member services at [email protected] for a list of other Leafy Rewards services associated with your Leafy Rewards ID. Member services can also provide you contact information to reach out to other Leafy Rewards Services.

In Relation to Business Asset Transfers
We may share the information we collect, including personal information, with any third party in connection with, or during confidential negotiations of, any proposed or actual merger, purchase, sale (including a liquidation, realization, foreclosure or repossession) or any other type of acquisition of all or any portion of Company assets, conveyance or transfer of all or a portion of our business to another company. In such event, the acquiring company would be contractually required to use your collected information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable law or to provide prior notice to you of any new or materially changed practices.
