274274Many states in the United States have passed or are in the processes of passing comprehensive consumer privacy laws. One such law is the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Consumer Privacy Rights Act ("CCPA"). These consumer privacy laws grant their residents certain rights and require additional disclosures ("State Privacy Laws"). If you are a resident of one of a state that has enacted State Privacy Laws, this section applies to you.

278Certain State Privacy Laws, including the CCPA, require us to disclose what categories of information we have collected in the last twelve months and what categories of information we have "shared" or "sold" as those terms are defined under California law. You can find a list of the categories of information that we have collected and shared or sold, as those terms are defined under applicable State Privacy Laws [here](https://www.barnesandnoble.com/terms/california-transparency). Please note that because these lists are comprehensive, they may refer to types of information that we share about people other than yourself. If you would like more information concerning the categories of personal information (if any) we share with third parties or affiliates for those parties to use for direct marketing please submit a written request to us using the information in the "Contact Information" section below. We do not discriminate against consumers who exercise any of their rights described in this policy.

Under the law, a business must either provide this information or permit California residents to opt in to, or opt out of, this type of sharing. We qualify for this alternative option.
