The CCPA further provides you with the right not to be discriminated against (within the meaning of the CCPA) for exercising your rights, and you may have the right to re
1ceive information about the financial incentives we offer, if any.<p>To exercise these rights, you can email us at <a href=mailto:privacy@testerup.com>privacy@testerup.com</a>. We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before responding to a request. In doing so, we may ask you for verification information so that we can match at least two verification points with information we maintain in our files about you.

For security and legal reasons, we may not accept requests that require us to access third-party websites or services .<p>You are also permitted to designate an authorized agent to submit certain requests on your behalf. In order for an authorized agent to be verified, you must provide the authorized agent with signed, written permission to make such requests or a power of attorney.

For example, information may remain in copies made for backup or business continuity longer than in production systems.<p>Our specific retention practices may vary by jurisdiction. For example, the chart below lists the categories of personal information we collected about California residents in the last twelve months, along with examples of how long we typically would intend to retain those types of personal information in the particular situations described below.

However, information you have previously been compensated for may not be subject to deletion. You should also review any notice of financial incentive provided by our partners.<h3>F.

In the majority of cases, your personal information will be processed for the purposes and legal justifications described below:<ul><li>We process the information we collect automatically to provide, maintain and improve the Services, to research and analyze the functioning and use of the Services, to manage and remember your preferences, to advertise and market our Services to you, including on third-party websites (subject to your consent or any opt-out preferences you have communicated to us), to understand and resolve technical and security issues, to protect the security of our assets and Services, among other purposes.<br>Most of this processing is carried out in our legitimate interests of meeting the purposes described above and sometimes based on your consent e.g. where you opt-in to receive marketing from us or third parties.<li>We process the information you provide to us to authenticate you and allow you to create and log into your account, to provide customer support and respond to your inquiries, to communicate to you about updates, surveys, offers, and other information related to our Services (subject to your consent and any opt-out preferences), to manage and remember your preferences, to process orders and complete transactions, to advertise and market our services to you, to comply with legal requirements, relevant industry standards, and our policies, to protect our safety, rights, property or security or that of our users, employees, third parties, members of the public and/or our Services, including by preventing fraud and malicious or illegal activity, to enforce our Terms and policies.<br>The majority of this processing is necessary for the performance of the contract we have with you (i.e., as set out in our Terms).

This will entail the processing of personal information which is considered as sensitive personal information (i.e., biometric information). We do this in order to prevent dishonest and malicious activities by ensuring that users have only a single account and to ensure that real humans are using the Module. These verifications also ensure that we comply with relevant industry standards, and our policies, protect our rights, those of our clients, and members of the public as well as to enforce our Terms.<br>Such processing is necessary for the performance of the contract we have with you (i.e. our Terms). In addition to this legal justification, this processing is also carried out on the basis of an additional substantial public interest condition relating to unlawful acts and dishonesty.</ul><p>Before we process your personal information to pursue our legitimate interests for the purposes set out above, we determine if such processing is necessary and carefully consider the impact of our processing activities on your fund
1amental rights and freedoms. On balance, we have determined that such processing is necessary for our legitimate interests and that the processing which we conduct does not adversely impact on your rights and freedoms.<p>We may aggregate, de-identify, and/or anonymize any information collected through the Services so that such information is no longer reasonably capable of being associated with you. We may use such information for any purpose and disclose such information for any purpose to any third parties, in our discretion.<p>If you wish to know more about our purposes and these legal grounds, please contact us at <a href=mailto:privacy@testerup.com><span style=text-decoration:underline>privacy@testerup.com</span></a> or by writing to us at aestimium GmbH, Roedingsmarkt 39, 20459 Hamburg, Germany.<h3>4.

For this cookie, the unique cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-view conversions) and opt-out information (marking that the user does not want to be addressed more) are saved. This cookie loses its validity after 30 days and does not include any personal data. If you visit certain websites within these 30 days, Google determines that you clicked on an advertisement and were then redirected to our platform. Each Google Ads customer is matched with a different c
1ookie. This means that cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of Google Ads customers. We do not collect or process any personal data in the advertising measures mentioned. We only receive statistical evaluations from Google. Based on these evaluations, we can see which advertising measures are particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from using the advertising material. In particular, we cannot identify the user based on this information. The information collected using the cookie creates statistical evaluations for Google Ads customers. This tells Google Ads customers the total number of users redirected to their website through advertisements. Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to the Google server. We do not influence the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool. Therefore, according to our state of knowledge, we are informing you that by integrating Google Ads Conversion, Google receives the information that you have accessed the relevant part of our website or clicked on one of our advertisements.
