In compliance with applicable laws, SITE Centers will not sell your personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral or targeted advertising purposes without providing you a chance to opt out. We will keep your personal information as long as necessary to achieve the objectives for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is mandated or allowed by law.
