What is Personal Information
- Personal Information is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person, such as a name, date of birth, email, phone, mailing address, an identification number, demographic data, location data, financial information, health information, technical data, or an online identifier. Personal Information does not include information that is aggregated or deidentified.
- There is also a subset of Personal Information called “Sensitive Personal Information,” which may include information such as race, religion, government ID numbers, precise geolocation, biometric data, and similar sensitive information. We try not to collect any Sensitive Personal Information unless it is absolutely necessary for a specific purpose; please do not send us Sensitive Personal Information unless we expressly ask for it.
