Residents of the State of California, under California= Civil Code § 1798.83, have the right to request from companies conducting business in California a list of all third parties to which the company has disclosed Personal Information during the preceding year for direct marketi= ng purposes. Alternatively, the law provides that if the company has a privacy policy that gives either an Opt-out or Opt-in choice for use of your Person= al Information by third parties (such as advertisers) for marketing purposes, = the company may instead provide you with information on how to exercise your disclosure choice options.

Therefore, we are not required to maintain or disclose a list of the third parties that received your Personal Information for marketing purposes during the preceding year.
If you are a California resident and request informati= on about how to exercise your third party disclosure choices, you must send a request to privacy@MedNetwoRx.com.
