Future products/services: If we later offer applications, subscription services, or paid digital products, additional data practices may apply (for example, account registration and billing). If so, we will update this Policy and/or provide a separate product privacy notice.
Client data processed in consulting engagements: If we process personal information on behalf of a client as part of professional services, that processing is governed by our contract with the client (and any data processing addendum), not this website policy.

Depending on your state, you may have rights to access/know, delete, correct, and obtain a copy of certain personal information, and to opt out of certain processing such as targeted advertising.
Sale: PivotQ does not sell personal information.
Targeted advertising/"sharing": If we later enable third-party cookies or pixels that are considered "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising under certain laws, we will provide appropriate opt-out methods as required.
Opt-out preference signals: Where required, we will treat browser/device opt-out preference signals (such as Global Privacy Control) as a valid opt-out request for the browser or device where it is enabled.

Verification: We may verify your identity before responding to certain requests.
Non-discrimination: We do not discriminate for exercising privacy rights.
