In response to increasing privacy concerns, Paramount Services has announced that users in certain U.S. states now have the right to opt out of certain activities involving the processing and sharing of their personal information. The company, known for its browser notifications for breaking news and live events, has taken steps to address concerns raised by users residing in states such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Montana, Oregon, Texas, Utah, and Virginia.

According to Paramount Services' Privacy Policy, personal information is processed to customize advertising experiences for users. This may involve disclosing personal information on third-party sites for targeted advertising purposes. However, the company recognizes that in certain states, these activities may be considered the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information, or processing for "targeted advertising" purposes as per the definitions outlined in applicable state privacy laws. As a result, users have the opportunity to exercise their opt-out rights.

To exercise this opt-out right in connection with the email address provided, users can submit a request through the designated portal. Additionally, users can opt out of the use of personal information associated with a device by adjusting the relevant privacy settings. It is important to note that this choice will need to be renewed for each visit to Paramount Services, in case of browser cookie clearance, or when accessing the services through a different browser or device.

Paramount Services acknowledges the importance of essential cookies for the proper functioning of their services. Although users have the option to block or receive alerts regarding these cookies, it is essential to note that certain features of the service may be compromised if these cookies are deactivated.

In U.S. states such as California or Colorado, users who have enabled the Global Privacy Control signal will be considered to have requested an opt-out of "sales," "sharing," and "targeted advertising" for device information.
