Withdrawing Your Consent.
Contact us if you would like to withdraw your consent to the processing of your data. Exercising this right will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before the withdrawal.
Erasing or Restricting Access to Your Information.
You may request to delete or restrict access to your personal data. We may postpone or deny your request if your personal data is in current use for providing Services or for other legitimate purposes, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so and why.
Transferring your Personal Data (Otherwise known as Your Right to Data Portability).
You have the right to receive your personal data that you have provided us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and the right to transmit that data to another party of your choice, where technically feasible.

Lime Light Studios takes reasonable measures to protect your information from unauthorized access or against loss, misuse or alteration by third parties.

Specific Provisions for California Consumers
These additional provisions for California consumers apply only to individuals who reside in California.
