California Residents
If you are a California resident, per the California Consumer Protection Act (“CCPA”) which is effective since January 1, 2020, you can learn how we collect data, use data, and why we store it, in our Privacy Policy.
Your rights under the CCPA include:

Linno Fund ensures you will not face discrimination when exercising your CCPA rights. However, certain actions, such as deleting or restricting your data, may limit the functionality of our platform. If you interact with Linno Fund again after deleting your data, you will need to submit new data-related requests.

Nevada law allows certain consumers to opt out of the sale of "covered information" for monetary consideration. "Covered information" includes names, addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, Social Security Numbers, or identifiers that enable contact.
While Linno Fund does not currently engage in selling such information, Nevada residents who have purchased or leased goods or services from us can request to opt out of potential future sales by emailing [email protected]. We will verify your identity and maintain your request in case our practices change.
