Privacy Policy | Amber Energy

This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) applies to the information that Elliott Investment Management L.P. and its affiliates (collectively “Elliott” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects and uses about you when you access its website at AmberEnergy.com (the “Site”). This Policy does not apply to the websites, mobile applications, or other services operated by Elliott’s portfolio companies or others, unless this Policy is posted on any of those websites. By accessing the Site, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.

The Policy describes the types of information we obtain about visitors to the Site, how we use the information, and with whom we share it. We also describe the measures we take to protect the security of the information, and how you can contact us about our privacy practices. The Site is for a general audience, is not targeted to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18 years of age.

Categories of Personal Information We Collect

Throughout this Policy, we discuss in detail the specific pieces of personal information we collect from and about users. Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), we are also required to provide you with the “categories” of personal information we collect. The categories we collect are: identifiers (such as name, address, email address); internet or other network or device activity (such as browsing history or Services usage); general geolocation information (e.g., your city and state based on IP address or precise location, with your consent); and other information that identifies or can be reasonably associated with you.

WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND THE SOURCES OF SUCH INFORMATION

We collect information in multiple ways when you visit the Site, including when you provide information directly to us, and when we passively collect information from or about you, such as from your browser or device. We may combine all of the information we collect from or about you from these various sources.

Information You Provide Directly to Us. We will collect any information that you provide to us. For example, if you contact us, we may collect certain information, such as your name, email address, company name, phone number, location, and the contents of any message you send. If you are an Elliott investor, then we also may collect information you may submit in connection with obtaining stockholder benefits such as a government identifier or other verification information, but such information will be governed by a separate privacy notice that you will have received directly from us.

Information We Collect Through Automated Means. We also collect information through automated and technical means as you browse or otherwise use our Site.

Website Usage Information. As you browse or use the Site, we and our service providers (which are third party companies that work on our behalf to provide and enhance the Site) use a variety of technologies, including cookies and similar tools, to assist in collecting information about how you use the Site. For example, our servers automatically record certain information in server logs. These server logs may include information such as your web request, IP address, browser type and settings, referring / exit pages and URLs, number of clicks and how you interact with links on the Site, domain names, landing pages, pages viewed, mobile carrier, mobile device identifiers and information about the device you are using to access the Site, date and time stamp information and other such information.
Location Information. We collect and process general information about the location of the device from which you are accessing the Site (e.g., approximate geographic location inferred from an IP address).
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies. We and our service providers may also collect data about your use of the Site through the use of Internet server logs and online tracking technologies, like cookies and/or tracking pixels. A web server log is a file where website activity is stored. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your computer when you visit a website, that enables us to: (a) recognize your computer; (b) understand the web pages you have visited; (c) enhance your user experience by delivering content specific to your inferred interests; (d) perform searches and analytics; and (e) assist with security administrative functions. Tracking pixels (sometimes referred to as web beacons or clear GIFs) are tiny electronic tags with a unique identifier embedded in websites, and/or email, and that are designed to provide usage information like clicks and to access user cookies. We and our service providers may also include Web beacons in email messages, newsletters and other electronic communications to determine whether the message has been opened and for other analytics, personalization and advertising. As we and our service providers adopt additional technologies, we may also gather additional information through other methods. Please note that you can change your settings to notify you when a cookie is being set or updated, or to block cookies altogether. Please consult the “Help” section of your browser for more information (e.g., Internet Explorer; Google Chrome; Mozilla Firefox; or Apple Safari). Please note that by blocking any or all cookies, you may not have access to certain features.

California Privacy Law. If you are a California resident, California law requires us to provide you with some information regarding your rights with respect to your “personal information” (as defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”)). In this Policy, we describe the categories of personal information we collect, the sources and uses of such information and the entities to which we share such information.
California Data Access and Deletion Rights. If you are a California resident, the CCPA allows you to make certain requests about your personal information, such as to:
- Inform you about the categories of personal information we collect or disclose about you; the categories of sources of such information; the business or commercial purpose for collecting your personal information; and the categories of third parties with whom we share/disclose personal information.
- Provide access to and/or a copy of certain personal information we hold about you.

You are also permitted to designate an authorized agent to submit certain requests on your behalf. In order for an authorized agent to be verified, you must provide the authorized agent with signed, written permission to make such requests or a power of attorney.

If you would like further information regarding your legal rights under California law or would like to exercise any of them, please:

Notice of Right to Opt Out of Sale of Personal Information. The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) sets forth certain obligations for businesses that “sell” personal information (as sell is defined under CCPA and under current guidance).

The CCPA further provides you with the right to not be discriminated against (as provided for in applicable law) for exercising your access, deletion or sale opt out rights.

Shine the Light Disclosure. The California “Shine the Light” law gives residents of California the right under certain circumstances to request information from us regarding the manner in which we share certain categories of personal information (as defined in the Shine the Light law) with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not share your personal information with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

provide access to and/or a copy of certain information we have about you;
prevent the processing of your information for direct-marketing purposes;
update information which is out of date or incorrect;

We will consider all requests and provide our response within the time period stated by applicable law. Certain information may be exempt from such requests in some circumstances, which may include if we need to keep processing your information for our legitimate interests or to comply with a legal obligation. We may request you provide us with information necessary to confirm your identity before responding to your request.
