OKAI does not directly sell your Personal Information in the conventional sense (i.e., for money). Like many websites, we share certain information, such as your IP address, device ID, click ID, or other similar online identifiers with certain third party advertising and analytics vendors to improve your user experience, to learn how you use our Site, and to help deliver interest-based ads to you. Some of those third parties may use your Personal Information for their own purposes or to provide services to other businesses. Under the CCPA, the sharing of this type of information is a “sale,” and you can opt-out of having your information shared in this way.
If you wish to opt out of the use of your Personal Information for interest-based advertising purposes and these potential sales as defined under CCPA law, you may do so by following the instructions below. Please note that any opt out is specific to the browser you use. You may need to opt out on every browser that you use.

The opt out will place a cookie on your computer that is unique to the browser you use to opt out. If you change browsers or delete the cookies saved by your browser, you will need to opt out again.
Mobile Devices. Your mobile device may give you the ability to opt out of the use of information about the apps you use in order to serve you ads that are targeted to you interests: "Opt out of Interest-Based Ads" or "Opt out of Ads Personalization" on Android devices, and "Limit Ad Tracking" on iOS devices.
