YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS Residents of the State of California, under a new
provision of the California Civil Code, 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 marketing 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 Personal Information by third
parties (such as advertisers or affiliated companies) for marketing
purposes, the company may instead provide you with information on how
to exercise your disclosure choice options. Lotus BookWorks has a comprehensive
Privacy Policy and provides you with details on how you may opt-out or
opt-in to the use of your Personal Information by third parties for
direct marketing purposes. Therefore, we are not required to maintain
or disclose a list of the third parties that received your Personal
Information during the preceding year for marketing
purposes. If
you are a California resident and request information about how to
exercise your third-party disclosure choices, you must send a request
to the following address with a preference on how our response to your
request should be sent (e-mail or postal mail). Our postal address
is: 11833 Mississippi Ave, Suite 200 Los Angeles, CA 90025
