the person making the request. We reserve the right to deny your request if we
cannot verify your or if an exemption applies (for example, where fulfilling
your request would adversely affect you or where we have a conflicting legal obligation).
That will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

categories of personal information that FatCoupon uses, please see the section

we have collected in the past 12 months falls into the following categories as

general idea of the city, state, and country - what California law calls
geolocation.
