6. Your Choices
Cookies
You can opt-out of cookies by (a) enabling a universal opt-out mechanism or preference signal, such as Global Privacy Control (GPC) on your browser which is recognized by our U.S.-facing websites or (b) opting-out of cookies in our U.S.-facing websites’ cookie preference center.
On most web browsers, you will find a “help” section on the toolbar. Please refer to this section for information on how to receive a notification when you are receiving a new cookie and how to turn cookies off.
Note that if you turn cookies off, you may be unable to access certain parts of the Site and you may not be able to benefit from the full functionality of the Site. To find out more about cookies and similar technologies, visit www.allaboutcookies.org, and/or www.youronlinechoices.com.
Do Not Track
Your browser may offer you a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) option, which allows you to signal to operators of websites and web applications that you do not wish such operators to track some of your online activities over time and across different websites and platforms. There is no universally agreed-upon standard for what an organization should do when it detects a DNT signal. Currently, we do not monitor or take any action with respect to these signals or other mechanisms. Learn more about Do Not Track here.
Universal Opt-Out Mechanism
Some browsers and browser extensions support a universal opt-out mechanism or preference signal, such as the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating your choice to opt-out from certain types of data processing, including data sales. In certain territories, when we detect such a signal, we will make reasonable efforts to respect your choices indicated by a GPC setting as required by applicable law.
Communication Preferences
With your consent, Goldberg Segalla communicates with you via a variety of print and digital media. To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we use pixels that enable us to see if you open e-mails from us, if your computer supports such capabilities. You can opt out of receiving emails from us at any time. To manage your communications preferences with Goldberg Segalla — or to opt out of communications entirely — please unsubscribe at the bottom of our emails or contact us at privacy@GoldbergSegalla.com.

Retention of Personal Information
Goldberg Segalla will retain your Personal Information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice, as well to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes and enforce our legal agreements and policies. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers or those of our third-party data storage providers.
In some circumstances we may choose to anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
When deciding how long to keep your information, we consider:
- How long we have had a relationship with you or provided our Services to you;
- Whether we are subject to any legal obligations (e.g., any laws that require us to keep records for a certain period of time before we can delete them);
- Whether we have taken any legal positions (e.g., in connection with any statutes of limitation).
Rather than delete your data, we might de-identify it by removing identifying details.
