* Come and See does not sell Personal Information to third-party advertisers or ad networks for their own advertising purposes. With your consent, Come and See shares Personal Information with 5&2 Studios, Inc. for (i) joint Chosen-branded marketing and (ii) 5&2 non-Chosen-branded biblical content promotion, as described in the Privacy Policy. Depending on how "sale" and "sharing" are defined under the law applicable to you, these consent-based disclosures may constitute a "sale" or "share." You may opt out — and withdraw consent — at any time by contacting us as described in "How to Exercise Your Rights." Donor Information and Sensitive Personal Information are not sold or shared.

Categories of Personal Information We Collect and Share

The categories of Personal Information we collect, the sources, the purposes for which we use them, the retention periods, the categories of recipients, and whether we sell or share each category are set forth in the Right to Know table above and are further described in the Privacy Policy under "Information We Collect" and "Disclosing and Sharing Your Information."

"Sale" and "Sharing" of Personal Information

Come and See does not sell your personal information to third-party advertisers or ad networks for their own advertising purposes.

With your consent, Come and See shares personal information with 5&2 Studios, Inc. ("5&2") for two purposes: (1) joint Chosen-branded marketing - marketing of The Chosen brand (which Come and See owns) and Chosen-branded content, goods, and services produced by 5&2; and (2) 5&2 non-Chosen-branded biblical content promotion - enabling 5&2 to promote non-Chosen-branded content produced by 5&2 that is similar in biblical nature and of interest to viewers of The Chosen. If you have not provided consent, we do not share your personal information with 5&2 for either purpose, and Come and See does not share your personal information with 5&2 for any marketing or advertising purpose outside these two purposes.

Depending on how "sale" and "sharing" are defined by the privacy law applicable to you, consent-based disclosures to 5&2 for either purpose may constitute a"sale" or "sharing" of personal information. You may exercise your right to opt out and withdraw any previously given consent - at any time by contacting us using the information in the "How to Exercise Your Rights" section below.

Donor information is never sold or shared with any third party for that third party's own purposes. Donor information is shared only with vendors, service providers, and affiliates, under Come and See's direction and pursuant to contractual agreements, solely to process and analyze donor information in support of Come and See's operations.

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information / Your Privacy Choices. You may exercise your right to opt out of any "sale" or "sharing" of your Personal Information, and to withdraw any previously given consent to share with 5&2, by using the methods in "How to Exercise Your Rights." We honor Global Privacy Control ("GPC") and other recognized universal opt-out mechanisms as a valid request to opt out of sale, sharing, and processing for targeted advertising for the browser or device transmitting the signal, as required by controlling state law.

Sensitive Personal Information

We use and disclose sensitive personal information only for the business purposes of fulfilling our contract with you, providing the Services, or as otherwise required by law. Where state law requires your consent before processing sensitive personal information, we will obtain that consent and honor your choices, and you may withdraw consent at any time.

Minors

Our Services are intended for people 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. We do not sell or share personal information of consumers we actually know are under 18 without the affirmative authorization required by applicable law. Come and See has no actual knowledge that it sells or shares the Personal Information of consumers under 16 years of age.

Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in the Privacy Policy or as required by law, including tax, accounting, audit, fraud-prevention, security, and dispute-resolution obligations. Category-level retention periods are set forth in the Right to Know table above.

How to Exercise Your Rights

You may submit a request using any of the following methods:

  • Email: legal@comeandseefoundation.org with "[Your State] Privacy Request" in the subject line.
  • Mail: Come and See Foundation, Inc., 9540 Federal Drive, Suite 250, Colorado Springs, CO 80921.
  • Online: Submit a request via our Contact Us form- please include "[Your State] Privacy Request" in your message.

To help us process your request, please include your name, mailing address, email, state of residence, and a clear description of your request. We will take steps to verify your identity as required by law, and we may decline or limit a request if we cannot verify your identity, the request would affect the privacy or rights of others, or the request is otherwise not required to be honored by law. We will respond within the time required by the controlling statute (generally 45 days, with one extension of up to 45 additional days where reasonably necessary and permitted).

We will not discriminate or retaliate against you for exercising your rights. We generally do not charge a fee unless a request is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded, in which case we will explain our decision and any fee in advance as permitted by law.

Authorized Agents

You may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf. We may require written authorization signed by you, verification of your identity, and verification of the agent's identity, consistent with applicable law.

Right to Appeal

If we decline to take action on your request in whole or in part, we will inform you of our reasons and, where provided by state law, of your right to appeal.

California-Specific Disclosures

Shine the Light. California Civil Code § 1798.83 permits California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. Come and See does not disclose personal information to third parties for those third parties' own direct marketing purposes.

Notice at Collection. At or before collection, we provide the categories of personal information collected and the purposes of collection as set forth in the Privacy Policy and in this State Notice.

Financial Incentives. Come and See does not currently offer financial incentives in exchange for the collection, retention, sale, or sharing of personal information.

We may update this State Notice to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. We will post the updated Notice and revise the "Last Modified" date. Material changes will be accompanied by additional notice as required by law.
