Geographic Restrictions

M2 Liability Solutions is based in the State of New York in the United States. We provide this Website only for use of individuals located in the United States. We make no claims that the Website, its accessibility, or its content is appropriate or your access to it is legal outside of the United States.

Security of Your Information

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures designed to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps designed to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse. Any information disclosed online is vulnerable to interception and misuse by unauthorized parties. Therefore, we cannot guarantee complete security if you provide personal information, and your use of our Website and/or disclosure of Your Information is at your own risk.

If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from children without verification of parental consent, we will take the necessary steps to delete such information.

California’s Shine the Light Law

In addition to CCPA, California Civil Code ยง 1798.83 permits users that are residents of California to request the following information regarding our disclosure of your Personal Data to third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes: (i) a list of certain categories of personal information that we have disclosed to certain third parties for their direct marketing purposes during the immediately preceding calendar year; (ii) the identity of certain third parties that received personal information from us for their direct marketing purposes during that calendar year; and (iii) where the nature of the third parties’ business is not reasonably determinable, examples of the products or services marketed (if we have that information).

Controls for Do-Not-Track Features

Some operating systems and Websites include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. No uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.
