How to Correct or Update Your Information

You may correct or update certain information that we collect from you by contacting us at the email or mailing address noted in the “Contact Us” section below, or (if available on a particular Site or App) by editing your information and preferences on the "My Account" page. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to update our files to reflect your request as promptly as possible.

We may retain original and updated information for reasons such as technical constraints, dispute resolution, compliance with laws, fraud prevention, troubleshooting and enforcement of our terms of use and other agreements, or any other reason consistent with this Privacy Policy. In addition, please note that we cannot update any information about you collected through any of the Services that has already been disclosed to a third party (as permitted under this Privacy Policy).

Data Security

We have taken certain physical, administrative, and technical steps to safeguard the information we collect from and about our customers and Site visitors. While we make every effort to help ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee our security measures.

Transfer of Data from Outside the United States

If you use any of our Services from outside of the United States, information that we collect from or about you through the Services will be transferred to servers inside the United States and maintained indefinitely. By using the Services, you consent to the transfer of data about you into the United States, as well as the processing of such data in the United States.

Children

Protecting children’s privacy is important to us. We do not direct the Site or App to, nor do we knowingly collect any personal information from, children under the age of thirteen. If OGM learns that a child under the age of thirteen has provided personal information to the Site or App, it will use reasonable efforts to remove such information from its files.

Third Party Content, Links, and Plug-Ins

The Site or App may have links to third-party websites or applications, which may have privacy policies that differ from our own. We are not responsible for the practices of such sites.

The Site or App may also offer you the ability to interact with social plugins from social media sites, which may allow us and/or the social media site to receive data from or about you. In some cases, we may know that you clicked on a social plugin, such as a Facebook Like or Twitter Follow button, or receive other information from the social media sites. Similarly, if you have previously provided personal information to a third-party operating a plug-in on the Site or App, then such third-party may recognize you on this Site or App. Your use of social network plugins is subject to each social media site’s privacy policy, which may be different from ours, so please read these policies carefully to understand their policies and your options. As with linked sites, we have no control over the information that is collected, stored, or used by social network plugins, and are not responsible for the practices of such sites.

Public Forums

Any information you may disclose through our Services, in blogs, on discussion or message boards, in chat rooms, interactive forums, rating or reviews, or on other public areas on the Site or App, or other third-party websites that this Site or App may link to, becomes public information. Please exercise caution when disclosing personal or other information in these public areas.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy at any time. When we do, we will post the change(s) on the Site or App. Please visit this page periodically so that you will be apprised of any such changes. Your continued use of our Services after any modification to this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such modification.
