  2. information about your device and internet connection, including your IP address, operating system, and browser type.

The information we collect automatically is only statistical data and does not include personal information, but we may maintain it or associate it with the personal information that we collect in other ways or receive from third parties. It helps us to improve our Website and to deliver a better and more personalized service, including by enabling us to:
  1. estimate our audience size and usage patterns; and
  2. to protect our Services. We may use your information as part of our efforts to keep our Website safe and secure (e.g., for fraud monitoring and prevention).
3. The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include:
  1. Cookies (or browser cookies). A cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer. You may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. However, if you select this setting, you may be unable to access certain parts of our Website. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you direct your browser to our Website. These technologies are able to store a unique identifier for a device to allow a certain Internet site to recognize the device whenever the device is used to visit the site. These technologies may be used for many purposes by us and our third-party service providers, such as automatically collecting Usage Information, enabling features, remembering your preferences, and providing you with targeted advertising elsewhere online. If you do not want to accept cookies, you can block them by adjusting the settings on your Internet browser. You can find more information about cookies and how they work at https://www.allaboutcookies.org.
  2. Flash Cookies. Certain features of our Website may use local stored objects (or Flash cookies) to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on our Website. Flash cookies are not managed by the same browser settings as are used for browser cookies. For information about managing your privacy and security settings for Flash cookies, see Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Information.
  3. Web Beacons. Pages of our Website may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit the Company, for example, to count users who have visited those pages and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).
  4. Web Browsers. Certain browsers, or browser add-ons, may provide additional local data storage mechanisms that are used in a manner similar to cookies, and some of the content included on our Platforms may make use of this local storage. If you choose to disable cookies, or to otherwise restrict local storage, some features of the Platforms may not function properly, including the shopping cart and ordering processes.
  5. Embedded Scripts. An embedded script is programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with the Platforms, such as the links you click on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto your device from our server or a third-party service provider, is active only while you are connected to a Platform and is deactivated or deleted thereafter.
  6. JavaScripts. JavaScripts are code snippets embedded in various parts of websites and applications that facilitate a variety of operations including accelerating the refresh speed of certain functionality or monitoring usage of various online components.
  7. Entity Tags. Entity Tags are HTTP code mechanisms that allow portions of websites to be stored or “cached” within your browser and validates these caches when the website is opened, accelerating website performance since the web server does not need to send a full response if the content has not changed.
  8. HTML5 Local Storage. HTML5 local storage allows data from websites to be stored or “cached” within your browser to store and retrieve data in HTML5 pages when the website is revisited.
  9. Resettable Device Identifiers.

Like cookies, resettable device identifiers are used to make online advertising more relevant.

We do not collect personal information automatically, but we may tie this information to personal information about you that we collect from other sources, or you provide to us.

These advertising companies may use and share the information gathered to deliver ads more tailored to your interests. We receive aggregate information from these third parties to understand our advertising effectiveness. Any information collected by us or by third parties through the use of cookies or similar technologies may be linked with other information we collect about you. We may give these service providers access to your information (or allow them to collect information from or about you) so that they can carry out the services they are performing for you or for the Company. These third parties share information they have collected with us.

  2. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Although we do our best to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security, and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information transmitted to our Website. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, any transmission of Personal Information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Website. You should only access the Website within a secure environment.
2. Cookies. To facilitate and customize your experience with the Website, we may store cookies on your computer. A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a User’s computer for record-keeping purposes which contains information about that User. We use cookies to save you time while using the Website, remind us who you are, and track and target User interests in order to provide a customized experience. Cookies also allow us to collect information from you, like which pages you visited and what links you clicked on. Use of this information helps us to create a more user-friendly experience for all visitors. In addition, we may use third party advertising companies to display advertisements on our services. As part of their service, they may place separate cookies on your computer. We also contract with third party advertising or analytics companies to serve you online ads on other websites. These companies use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your interactions with our Platforms and interactions with other websites. These advertising companies may use and share the information gathered to deliver ads more tailored to your interests. We receive aggregate information from these third parties to understand our advertising effectiveness. Any information collected by us or by third parties through the use of cookies or similar technologies may be linked with other information we collect about you. We have no access to or control over these cookies. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by our Website only and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertiser or other third party. Most browsers automatically accept cookies by default, but, if you prefer, you may be able to modify your browser settings to remove cookies and to reject cookies. Users may choose to set their web browser to refuse cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent.

Pixel tags and web beacons are tiny graphic images placed on certain pages on our Website, or in our emails that allow us to determine whether you have performed a specific action. When you access these pages or open or click an email, pixel tags, and web beacons generate a notice of that action. Pixel tags allow us to measure and improve our understanding of visitor traffic and behavior on our Website, as well as give us a way to measure our promotions and performance. We may also utilize pixel tags and web beacons provided by our affiliates and/or partners for the same purposes.
5. Timing.
  1. We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will require us keeping your personal information for longer than six (6) months past the termination of the user’s account.
  2. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
Additional US State Privacy Rights.

Your Privacy Choices.
1. You can control the information we collect and use in the following ways:
  1. Location Information. You can disable location-based services on your mobile device or web browser by adjusting the settings on your device or browser. This will prevent our Website from accessing your location information.
  2. Emails. You can unsubscribe from our marketing email list at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails that we send or by contacting us using the details provided below. You will then be removed from the marketing email list — however, we may still communicate with you, for example to send you service-related emails that are necessary for the administration and use of your account, to respond to service requests, or for other non-marketing purposes. To otherwise opt-out, you may contact us using the contact information provided.
  3. SMS Messages. You can opt out at any time from SMS marketing if you longer wish to receive SMS messages from us.

2. Controls For Do-Not-Track Features. Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications 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. At this stage 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 notice.
3. Based on the applicable laws of your country, you may have the right to request access to the personal information we collect from you, change that information, or delete it in some circumstances. To request to review, update, or delete your personal information, please email us at support@now.cyberfolks.com.

EXHIBIT A

CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS NOTICE

Additional Notice for California Residents

This Privacy Notice for California Residents supplements the information contained in the Privacy Policy of CYBER FOLKS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Company”, “We”, or “Us”) and applies solely to all visitors, users, and others who reside in the State of California (“Consumers” or “You”). We adopt this notice to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), and the California Privacy Rights Act of 2021 (“CPRA”), and any terms defined in the CCPA and CPRA have the same meaning when used in this Notice.

This Policy does not apply to workforce-related personal information collected from California-based employees, job applicants, contractors, or similar individuals.

Where noted in this Policy, the CCPA temporarily exempts personal information reflecting a written or verbal business-to-business communication (“B2B personal information”) from some its requirements.

The CCPA permits our users who are California residents to request and obtain from us, once a year and free of charge, information about categories of personal information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes and the names and addresses of all third parties with which we shared personal information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing to us using the contact information provided below.

If you are under 18 years of age, reside in California, and have a registered account with the Website, you have the right to request removal of unwanted data that you publicly post on the Website. To request removal of such data, please contact us using the contact information provided below, and include the email address associated with your account and a statement that you reside in California. We will make sure the data is not publicly displayed on the Website, but please be aware that the data may not be completely or comprehensively removed from all our systems (e.g., backups, etc.).

Definition of “Resident”.
1. The California Code of Regulations defines a “Resident” as:
  1. every individual who is in the State of California for other than a temporary or transitory purpose; and
  2. every individual who is domiciled in the State of California who is outside the State of California for a temporary or transitory purpose.
2. All other individuals are defined as “Non-Residents.”
3. If this definition of “Resident” applies to you, we must adhere to certain rights and obligations regarding your personal information.
Sharing Personal Information.
1. We may disclose your personal information to a third party for a business purpose. When we disclose personal information for a business purpose, we require the recipient to both keep that personal information confidential and not use it for any purpose except for use in connection with performing the services on our behalf. The CCPA prohibits third parties who obtain the personal information we hold from reselling it unless you have received explicit notice and an opportunity to opt-out of further sales. We may disclose your personal information with our service providers pursuant to a written contract between us and each service provider. Each service provider is a for-profit entity that processes the information on our behalf.
2. We may use your personal information for our own business purposes. This is not considered to be “Selling” of your personal data.
3. We may use or disclose the personal information we collect for one or more of our business purposes in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise set forth in the CCPA. We will not collect additional categories of personal information or use the personal information we collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes without providing you notice.
4. The Company discloses the following categories of personal information for a business purpose:
  1. Identifiers.
  2. California Customer Records
  3. Personal Information Categories.
  4. Commercial information.
  5. Internet or other Electronic Network Activity Information (i.e., browsing history and information regarding a consumer’s interaction with our Website).
  6. Geolocation data.
5. We disclose your personal information for a business purpose to the following categories of third parties:
  1. Our affiliates;
  2. Service Recipients; and
  3. Third parties to whom you authorize us to disclose your personal information in connection with the products or services we provide to you.
CCPA Rights. The CCPA provides consumers who are California residents with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights:
1. Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights. You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past twelve (12) months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights), we will disclose to you:
  1. The categories of personal information we collected about you;
  2. The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you;
  3. Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information;
  4. The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information; and
  5. The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).
2. Deletion Request Rights. You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies. We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:
  1. Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law, or otherwise perform our contract with you;
  2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities;
  3. Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;
  4. Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law;
  5. Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 seq.);
  6. Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement if you previously provided informed consent;
  7. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us;
  8. Comply with a legal obligation; and
  9. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.
Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights.
1. To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by email at support@now.cyberfolks.com.
2. Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a twelve (12) month period.
3. The verifiable consumer request must:
  1. Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
  2. Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. You do not need to create an account with us to submit a request to know or delete. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that specific account. We will only use personal information provided in the request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make it. If, however, we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us, we may request that you provide additional information for the purposes of verifying your identity, and for security or fraud-prevention purposes. We will delete such additionally provided information as soon as we finish verifying you. For instructions on exercising your sale opt-out or opt-in rights, see Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights.
4. Response Timing and Format. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to ninety (90) days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the twelve (12) month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance. We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
5. Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights.
  If you are sixteen (16) years of age or older, you have the right to direct us not to sell your personal information at any time (the “Right to Opt-Out”). We do not sell the personal information of consumers we actually know are less than sixteen (16) years of age, unless we receive affirmative authorization (the “Right to Opt-In”) from either the consumer who is at least thirteen (13) but not yet sixteen (16) years of age, or the parent or guardian of a consumer less than thirteen (13) years of age. Consumers who opt-in to personal information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time. To exercise the right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) may submit a request to us by emailing us at support@now.cyberfolks.com.
  Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve (12) months before asking you to reauthorize personal information sales. However, you may change your mind and opt back into personal information sales at any time by amending your preferences here. You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your opt-out rights. We will only use personal information provided in an opt-out request to review and comply with the request.
6. In accordance with applicable law, we are not obligated to provide or delete consumer information that is de-identified in response to a consumer request or to re-identify individual data to verify a consumer request.
Right to Non-Discrimination for the Exercise of a Consumer’s Privacy Rights. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:
1. Deny you goods or services;
2. Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties;
3. Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services;
4. Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your personal information’s value and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time.

IX. COOKIE INFORMATION

_Now uses cookies.
Cookie files are IT data, specifically text files, stored on the user’s end device and intended for use with the service’s website. Cookies typically contain the name of the website from which they come, the storage time on the end device, and a unique number.
The entity placing cookies on the user’s end device and accessing them is the Provider.
The service uses two main types of cookies: “session” cookies and “persistent” cookies. “Session” cookies are temporary files stored on the user’s device until they log out, leave the website, or turn off the software (web browser). “Persistent” cookies are stored on the user’s device for a period specified in the cookie parameters or until deleted by the user.
Cookies are used for the following purposes:

Type and basis for processing	Purpose and detailed description
Functional – always active (legitimate interest of the Controller)	These are cookies necessary for the website to function. The website will not function correctly without accepting these types of cookies. For example, a cookie that records the user’s consent or objection is necessary to determine whether the user has agreed to certain actions on the site.
Analytical and performance (User consent)	They allow us to gather information about how the site is used. These cookies help us count visits and traffic sources on our website, allowing us to measure and improve its performance, as well as learn which pages are most and least popular, and understand how visitors navigate through our site. They assist in analyzing the site’s performance and collecting aggregated information. For example, we can create heat maps, which help us understand which content is readable and which is not, allowing us to design the site better. They also help us see which blog posts were read more frequently and which less, helping us develop more engaging content.
Social (User consent)	These cookies related to social media platforms allow the User to link their accounts with social media. The User can share content from our site through them. Social media cookies (from external entities, such as Facebook) collect information to provide personalized advertising content. For example, advertisements on social media platforms that the User uses are better tailored to them, reducing the likelihood of showing ads for services or products they have already purchased.
Marketing (User consent)	These cookies are related to the functioning of marketing automation systems and ad tracking. They help us limit, for example, the number of times a particular ad is shown. They also allow us to perform comparative tests, which help us continually improve the functionality of our website. By testing different page layouts, we can more easily find one that ensures the best readability for the User. Communication also becomes more personalized. For example, we can suggest an article to the User about how to find a domain name when we see they are searching for a domain but are having difficulty finding a suitable name.

Web browsing software (internet browser) usually allows the storage of cookies on the User’s end device by default. Users can change these settings. The internet browser allows the deletion of cookies. It is also possible to automatically block cookies. Detailed information on this can be found in the help or documentation of the web browser.
Restrictions on the use of cookies may affect some functionalities available on the _Now websites.
Cookies placed on the User’s end device with their consent may also be used by entities cooperating with the Controller, particularly companies such as:
a) Google Ireland Limited, for Google Ads and Google Analytics services;
b) Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, for Facebook and Instagram services.
The Controller uses Google Analytics to analyze website traffic.
The Controller uses remarketing, which allows advertising networks to display advertisements to the User tailored to their behavior on the service’s website. The technical condition for such actions is to enable cookie handling.
