Categories of Third Parties to whom we disclose Personal Information for Business Purposes
 

We disclose personal information for the business purposes described above.  When we disclose personal information for a business purpose, we enter a contract that describes the purposes and requires the recipient to both keep that personal information confidential and not use it for any purpose except performing the contract.

We disclose your personal information for a business purpose to the following categories of third parties:

· Our affiliates.

· Service providers that act on our behalf, such as data storage providers, email providers, and advisors.

· Third parties to whom you or your agents authorize us to disclose your personal information.

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides California residents with the right to opt-out of the sale or sharing of personal information. 

Community Savings does not offer an opt-out from the sale or sharing of personal information because we do not engage in the sale or sharing of personal information as contemplated by the CCPA.
