8. United States State Privacy Disclosures
Residents of states with comprehensive consumer privacy laws may have the rights described above if the relevant law applies to DIS and the requested information.
For purposes of applicable state law, the categories of personal information we may collect include identifiers, customer-record information, commercial information, internet or network activity, approximate geolocation, professional information, and inferences drawn from interactions with us.
We collect these categories from the sources and for the purposes described in this policy, and we may disclose them to the recipients identified above.
DIS does not knowingly sell personal information for monetary consideration. If applicable technology is considered a sale, sharing, or targeted advertising under state law, you may submit an opt-out request through [insert privacy-request link] or by contacting us.
We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.
9. International Visitors
DIS is based in the United States. If you access our website from another country, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States and other locations where our providers operate.

When DIS processes information provided by a customer in connection with professional services, the customer generally determines what information is submitted and how it is used. Questions or requests concerning that information should ordinarily be directed to the customer that supplied it.
Separate contracts, confidentiality obligations, or data-processing terms may govern project and customer data. If those terms conflict with this policy, the applicable contract controls to the extent of the conflict.

Our website may link to or integrate with third-party websites, software, social networks, download platforms, and services. We do not control those parties and are not responsible for their privacy, security, or content. Review their policies before providing information.

Our website and services are intended for businesses and professionals and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the website.
If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us so we can review and, where appropriate, delete it.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. The “Last updated” date shows when it was most recently revised. Material changes may also be announced through the website or another appropriate method.
