In a recent update to its Privacy Policy, Paramount Service has introduced the option for users to opt out of certain activities involving the sharing and processing of personal information. The service, which provides browser notifications for breaking news, live events, and exclusive reporting, aims to enhance user privacy and provide greater control over their data.

According to the updated Privacy Policy, users residing in specific U.S. states such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Montana, Oregon, Texas, Utah, and Virginia have the right to opt out of activities that may be considered "sales" or "sharing" of their personal information, as defined under applicable state privacy laws. These activities primarily revolve around targeted advertising purposes.

To exercise their opt-out rights, users are directed to the "Additional Information: US States" section of the Privacy Policy, where they can find more details about their rights and Paramount Service's privacy practices. For those wishing to opt out of email communications associated with their account, they can submit their request through the provided link.

The Privacy Policy also addresses the use of personal information associated with devices, which may be considered "sales," "sharing," or "targeted advertising." Users are encouraged to adjust their preferences by moving the toggle to the left, unchecking the box, or making the relevant selections. It is important to note that these preferences need to be renewed whenever users clear their browser cookies or access Paramount Service using a different browser or device.

While essential cookies that ensure the proper functioning of the service cannot be switched off, users are given the option to set their device settings to block or receive alerts about these cookies. However, it is advised that altering these settings may result in the Service's functionalities being limited.

For users in California or Colorado who have enabled the Global Privacy Control signal, Paramount Service will treat this as a request to opt out of "sales," "sharing," and "targeted advertising" for device information. More information on how to utilize the Global Privacy Control signal can be found in the provided link.

Additionally, the Privacy Policy provides instructions on how to stop receiving marketing emails from Paramount Service.

As privacy concerns continue to rise in an increasingly digital landscape, Paramount Service's decision to offer opt-out options for certain personal information activities reflects a dedication to user privacy. By allowing users greater control over their data, the service aims to ensure transparency and build trust among its audience.
