For Oregon residents, and where otherwise provided by applicable law, this includes a list of third parties with whom we have shared personal information. For Delaware and Maryland residents, and where otherwise provided by applicable law, you have the right to request a list of the categories of third parties with whom we have specifically shared your personal data.
Delete Your Personal Data (CO, CT, DE, IA, MD, MN, MT, NE, NH, NJ, OR, TN, TX, UT, VA Residents) - You have the Right to delete your personal data.
Correct Your Personal Data (CO, CT, DE, MD, MN, MT, NE, NH, NJ OR, TN, TX, VA Residents) - You have the Right to correct the personal data we hold about you.
Opt-Out of Sales of Your Personal Data and Targeted Advertising (CO, CT, DE, IA, MD, MN MT, NE, NH, NJ, OR, TN, TX, VA, and UT Residents) – You have the right to opt out of the sale of your data. We do not sell personal data to third parties for monetary compensation, as defined by Iowa, Utah, and Virginia laws, and therefore does not offer this opt-out right to residents of these states. Sharing of IP addresses or mobile ad IDs with third party advertising vendors and certain other targeted advertising practices may constitute a “sale” under definitions set forth under other state laws. Please note that opting out of sales and targeted advertising will not opt you out of all advertising. If you would like to opt out of the sale of your personal data, please make a request using the methods to exercise your rights listed above.
A Note About Cookie Based Opt Outs for Sale and Targeted Advertising
We engage in online advertising practices (and certain analytics or similar activities), that may be considered a “sale” in CO, CT, DE, MD, MN, MT, NE, NH, NJ, OR, TN and TX and/or “targeted advertising” under each of these states’ laws. You may opt out of cookies set by third parties that may be considered sales and targeted advertising by adjusting your cookie settings using the Cookie Preferences link in the website footer. [O-Cedar to confirm instructions once cookie tool is implemented.] Please also review the Third Party Advertising and Analytics section above for information on industry tools and device settings that may be available to you.
For the sake of clarity, we do not knowingly collect, sell, or process for targeted advertising, the personal data of Maryland residents younger than 18. [As noted in our cover, MODPA prohibits the selling, or processing for targeted advertising, personal data of consumers younger than 18. While the law does not require that businesses explicitly state in their privacy notices that they do not engage in these activities, we recommend that O-Cedar consider including this clarification (provided it is fully accurate) as O-Cedar may run the risk that other disclosures could be interpreted to state or imply that O-Cedar does sell/process minor data for targeted ads. Of course, if O-Cedar includes this statement, it will need to ensure on the backend that this is fully accurate (e.g. taking the risk mitigation steps noted in the cover).]
Opt-Out of Profiling in furtherance of legal or similarly significant effects – We do not process your personal data for the purposes of profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects as defined under applicable laws.

Authorized Agents Submitting Opt-Out Requests for Sales and Targeted Advertising (CO, CT, DE, MD, MN, MT, NE, NH, NJ, OR, and TX Residents Only) – If you are an authorized agent submitting a request to opt out of sales or targeted advertising on behalf of a Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, or Texas resident, please submit the request pursuant to the above instructions. We may require documentation to authenticate the Consumer's identity and that you are authorized to submit the request on the consumer's behalf in order to be able to fulfill your request. Please keep in mind that if we cannot authenticate that you are authorized to act on the Consumer's behalf or we cannot authenticate the Consumer's identity, we may deny the request.

If you are an Iowa or Utah resident, you have the right to opt-out of the processing of Sensitive Data, each as defined by the respective privacy law, to the extent we process any such data. For the sake of clarity, if you are a resident of Maryland, we do not sell your Sensitive Data.
C. Notice to Nevada Residents We do not currently sell your covered information as those terms are defined under applicable Nevada law. You may still submit an opt-out request and we will honor that request as required by Nevada law if we were to engage in such a sale in the future. If you are a Nevada resident and would like to opt-out of the sale of your covered information, please submit your request to privacy@ocedar.com.

14. Notice to California Residents
A. California Privacy Notice
This California Privacy Notice is updated and effective as of December 2025
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), California residents have certain rights with regard to information that could reasonably be used to identify you or your family. This Privacy Notice is provided so that you can understand at or before the point of collection what we are collecting and why and your California rights, as required by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (“CPRA”), and any implementing regulations adopted thereunder. Terms (including defined capitalized terms) used in this California Privacy Notice have the same meanings given in the CCPA, CPRA, and the associated regulations, unless otherwise defined. For purposes of this Section, references to “personal information” includes “sensitive personal information” where applicable, unless otherwise indicated.
Exercising Your California Rights
California Consumers have the right to request: (1) that we disclose to you what personal information we collect, use, disclose, and sell/share, including the right to request that we provide to you the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you (“Right to Know”) (2) that we delete the personal information we have collected from you (“Right to Delete”); and, (3) that we correct inaccurate personal information we hold about you (“Right to Correct”), (4) to opt out from the sharing of your personal information to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising (i.e. targeted advertising) (“Right to Opt-Out of Sharing”), (5) to opt-out from the sale of personal information (“Right to Opt-Out of Sale”), all subject to the meanings and exceptions set forth in the CCPA and CPRA. More information on each of these rights is below.
In your request, you must provide enough information to allow us to verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information, or their authorized representative. You must also describe your request with enough detail so that we can understand, evaluate, and respond to it. We can’t respond to your request if we can’t verify your identity. Making such a request does not require you to create an account with us, and we will only use the information you provide in a request to verify your identity.
Verifying Your Requests
We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity based upon the information you provide and the type of request you are making.
When you exercise your Right to Know, Right to Delete, and/or Right to Correct Inaccurate Information, we may ask that you provide us with information, beyond your full name, in order to verify your identity and fulfill your request. If we are unable to verify that the individual submitting the request is the same individual about whom we have collected information (or someone authorized by that individual to act on their behalf), we will not be able to process the request.
Agents
If you are an authorized representative submitting a request on a user’s behalf, please complete the applicable request per the instructions below. We will follow up to request a signed, written permission signed by the individual who is the subject of the request authorizing you to make the request on their behalf. The written permission must state your full legal name, the full legal name of the individual who is the subject of the request, and needs to be clear about the permission granted.
Alternatively, you may submit a copy of a power of attorney under Probate Code sections 4000-4465. In either case, please also indicate in your email the nature of your request. The consumer’s identity, in addition to your own, will need to be independently verified in order for us to be able to fulfill your request. We may also ask the consumer to directly confirm with us that they provided you permission to submit a request. Please keep in mind that if we do not receive adequate proof that you are authorized to act on the consumer’s behalf, we may deny the request.
Right to Know, Delete, & Correct
California Consumers have the right to know what information we have collected about you (the categories and the specific pieces of information), the right to delete information, and correct information. If you are a California consumer and would like to exercise your Right to Know, Delete, and/or Correct please email privacy@ocedar.com or call 1.800.543.8105.
In order to have us provide specific pieces of information, we will require a signed declaration under penalty of perjury that you are the consumer whose Personal Information is the subject of the request.
Please note that as part of the verification process, once you submit a request to delete, we may follow up and require you to confirm that you want your information deleted.
Right to Opt-Out of the Sale of Your Personal Information or Sharing for Cross Contextual Behavioral Advertising.
California consumers have the right to opt-out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information. FHP does not sell personal information for monetary compensation, but as discussed above, FHP engages in certain online advertising practices (and third party analytics and similar activities), which may be considered a “sale” or “share” for cross-contextual behavioral advertising (i.e. targeted advertising), whether or not for monetary or other valuable consideration.
To disable sharing through cookies set by 3rd parties that may be considered “sales” or “sharing” under the CCPA and CPRA, you can modify your cookies settings by accessing the Cookie Preference pop-up through our website footer.
In addition, the Digital Advertising Alliance also offers tools for California consumers to send requests under the CCPA and CPRA to opt out of the sale of personal information by some or all of the participating companies https://www.privacyrights.info/.
