Major League Soccer, L.L.C. (“MLS”) respects your privacy. The websites

the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) as amended by the
California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (“CPRA”), including as applicable,
emergency contacts and beneficiaries of the foregoing. The Personal Information
collected from the foregoing in this context shall be referred to in this
Privacy Policy as “Employee Personal Information”. Internal website and intranet

and be applicable to such obligations or requirements. Any terms defined in the
CCPA have the same meaning when used in this notice.

collected from Participants in MLS NEXT, not MLS GO.

information, including heart rate, heart rate variability, skin temperature,

is only collected from Participants in MLS NEXT, not MLS GO.

(B.) Device Identifiable Information

We may collect information that may not reasonably identify you or a household
personally but is linked to your computer or device (“Device Identifiable
Information”). We collect Device Identifiable Information from you in the normal
course of providing the Services. When you visit our Websites to browse, read,
or download information, we automatically collect information about your
computer that your browser sends, such as your IP address, browser type and
language, access times, pages visited, and referring website addresses. We may
use Device Identifiable Information to analyze trends, help administer the
Services, track the online movement of users, to learn about and determine how
much time visitors spend on each page of the Websites, how visitors navigate
throughout the Websites or use other Services, and to gather broad demographic
information for aggregate use. We may also collect Device Identifiable
Information through “cookies” or “web beacons” as explained below.

In addition, we may collect information about your mobile device such as the
type and model, operating system (e.g. iOS or Android) and version, carrier
name, mobile browser (e.g. Chrome, Safari), applications using our Websites, and
identifiers assigned to your device, such as its iOS Identifier for Advertising
(“IDFA”), Android Advertising ID (“AAID”), or unique device identifier (a number
uniquely given to your device by your device manufacturer), sometimes referred
to as a mobile carrier ID.

We may also collect your location information, such as your zip code or the
approximate geographic area provided by your Internet service provider (“ISP”)
or location positioning information provided by the location services and GPS
features of your mobile device when location services have been enabled.

(C.) Aggregated and De-Identified Information

We also collect and use aggregated or de-identified information. Aggregated or
de-identified information may be derived from or include data collected from
performance monitoring devices but is not considered Personal Information under
applicable law or this Privacy Policy because this data does not directly or
indirectly identify a person. For example, we may aggregate birth years and
months along with data collected from wearable devices or optical trackers in
order to perform sports-science research designed to improve our understanding
of how to support player development. We may also share aggregated or
de-identified information with the manufacturer of the monitoring devices in an
effort to improve the devices, conduct research and development, establish
benchmarking metrics, and similar efforts designed to improve overall player
development.

We may also collect additional data that is not specific to any individual
Employee, Participant, Parent or user, such as:

· MLS NEXT or MLS GO club-related data, including the assigned team ID, the date
the data is collected, the name of any applicable drill, and the time of the
drill.

· Match-related data, including formations, match outcomes, competition types,
temperature, surface, environmental information, session type or location.

However, when aggregated or de-identified information, including Device
Identifiable Information, is directly associated with Personal Information, such
that the aggregated or de-identified information can be reasonably associated
with a particular individual person or household, then this aggregated or
de-identified information is treated as Personal Information. We commit to
maintain, use and otherwise process de-identified information only in a
de-identified fashion and will not attempt to reidentify such information.

(D.) Protected Health Information

For details on the collection and use of protected health information by MLS and
its partners and affiliates, please see the Authorization for Release of Health
Information provided to Participants and Parents.

 2. How We Collect Your Information

(A.) Cookies and Web Beacons

To help us serve you better, through the Websites we may collect Device
Identifiable Information from you through technologies such as “cookies” and
“web beacons” (which are also called clear GIFs, pixel tags, or pixels) or by
tracking internet protocol (“IP”) addresses.

· “Cookies” are small data files that are stored by your web browser when you
interact with a website. When you visit a webpage, the cookie sends back Device
Identifiable Information.

· “Web beacons” are small graphic images (usually invisible) that can be
embedded in content and ads on a webpage that track usage of the Websites and
effectiveness of communication. These web beacons can then be used to recognize
our cookies and to monitor certain user interactions with a website.

Cookies operate in the background, and you can turn them off by adjusting your
Web browser settings, but doing so may make it difficult to use some of the
features on the Websites or the features may not be available to you. We may use
cookies to make your Website experience easier by, for example, remembering your
preferences, keeping track of your login name and password.

We may also use cookies, web beacons and other activity tracking tools on the
Websites and through other Services to collect your engagement metrics,
including your Personal Identifiers and Device Identifiable Information, related
to your activity on the Websites and Services.

For more information on your choices regarding cookies, you can review the FTC’s
guide to opting out of online tracking for computers and mobile devices. You can
also see the “All Users: Your Rights, Choices and Controls” section below for
ways to opt-out.

Your browser may offer you a “Do Not Track” option, which allows you to signal
to operators of websites and web applications and services that you do not want
them to track your online activities. The Websites and Services do not currently
support Do Not Track requests.

(B.) Other Direct Interactions with You

You give us your information in your direct interactions with us. We collect
information you provide to us when you register accounts on our Websites and
other Services; request tickets, newsletters, and other products, services, or
information from us; respond to surveys; participate in sweepstakes or contests;
register as a Participant in or interact with MLS NEXT or MLS GO; or otherwise
interact with us. This information includes the categories of Personal
Information described in Section 1(A) and Device Identifiable Information, which
you give us from time to time. As an Employee, job applicant, or contractor, we
may collect Personal Information when you create an account on our careers
website or submit a job application. Additionally we may receive physiological
data from mobile devices, optical trackers, and wearable technology on
Participants who are involved in MLS NEXT and Employees involved in a Member
Club.

Except for IP addresses, we may match Device Identifiable Information with
Personal Information that we may have from or about you, which would allow us to
identify you. We may use this information to provide you with offers that are
available where you physically are located.

(C.) Social Media

When using the Services or when using certain third-party social networking
services (e.g., Facebook, Twitter) (each a “Social Network”), you may have the
option to connect your Service information and activity with your Social Network
information and activity. If you authorize such a connection, you permit us to
share or publish information about your Service activity with that Social
Network and its users, and to access certain of your Social Network information,
as disclosed to you at the time you consent to the connection. Information we
may share with a Social Network may include technical information about your
Service activity, your Service comments, or the videos you watch on the Service.
Information we may access about you, with your consent, from a Social Network
may include, but is not limited to, your basic Social Network information, your
location data, your list of contacts, friends or followers and certain
information about your activities on the Social Network. If you permit a
connection between a Social Network and a Service, we (and that Social Network)
may be able to identify you and to associate information received pursuant to
the connection with information we already have about you. For more information,
please review the privacy disclosures and terms of your Social Network account,
which govern how that account information is collected and shared with us.

(D.) Other Third-Party Sources

MLS may also receive other information from Service Providers (as defined in
this Privacy Policy) in connection with the operation of our Services, including
when you purchase our tickets or take our surveys through a third-party vendor.
We may also receive information from Service Providers through marketing and
demographic studies that we use to supplement Personal Information and
de-identified information provided directly by you. Similarly, we may receive
Personal Information from advertising partners. We may also receive information
from background check service providers in connection with our employee and
contractor applications. Additionally, we may receive Employee Personal
Information and Participant Personal Information including Inferences drawn from
other Personal Information from coaches or managers of Participants (as defined
in Section 1(A)—Sensitive Participant Information (vi) and
Section(1)(A)—Sensitive Employee Information (viii)).

 3. How We Use Your Information

For the Purpose Collected: If you provide Personal Information for a certain
reason, we will use the Personal Information in connection with the reason for
which it was provided. For instance, if you sign up for an email newsletter, we
will use your email address to send you the newsletter. In addition, if
permitted by law, and you seek to engage with our partners providing sports
betting or gaming services, we may use your Personal Information to facilitate
your engagement with our partners. Also, if you register or open an account on
the Services, the Personal Information you provide may be used to maintain your
account, provide you access to certain features of our Services, or offer you
the benefits and privileges that typically come along with registration. These
benefits may include access to and use of exclusive or personalized content or
activities (such as message boards or digital ticket access), participation in
special events and promotions (such as contests and sweepstakes), and delivery
of food, beverages, and/or merchandise. As part of these activities, we may use
your Personal Information to determine your eligibility, notify you whether you
are a winner, and/or fulfill and deliver prizes and orders.

Support from Service Providers: In addition, Personal Information and Device
Identifiable Information we collect may be used by us and by third-party service
providers (as has been for the past twelve months), such as hosting providers,
data management companies, address list hosting companies, e-mail service
providers, analytics companies (e.g., Google Analytics), distribution companies,
fulfillment companies, payment processors, and other partners that may offer you
certain products or services in connection with your use of the Websites and
Services (e.g., partners providing sports betting and gaming) (collectively,
“Service Providers”) for a variety of purposes, including to:

· contact you about the Websites and/or Services you have requested;

· provide you with Services or information you have requested, or products or
services you have ordered or signed up for, such as newsletters;

Information to our marketing partners to provide you with advertising that may
be more relevant to you;

with your permission, send you, or facilitate your receiving, promotional
material or special offers from MLS, Member Clubs, our partners or other third
parties. These third parties include, if permitted by law, partners offering
sports betting and gaming services. If you no longer wish to receive promotional
e-mails from us or our partners, or have your information shared with third
parties as previously described, you may change your mind and/or your
preferences by following the directions in the “All Users: Your Rights, Choices
and Controls” section of the Privacy Policy below.

Our Service Providers are given the information they need to perform their
designated functions in connection with the Services, and, except for those
instances we specifically allow, we do not generally authorize them to use or
disclose your Personal Information for their own marketing or other purposes.

Identity Verification and Security: We also may obtain information about you
from other businesses to verify your identity so we can properly process your
requests and prevent fraud. By accessing and using our Services, you agree that
we may use your submitted and obtained Personal Information and Device
Identifiable Information for such purposes and to maintain the security of the
Services.

Product Improvement and Marketing: MLS and our Service Providers may also use
your Personal Identifiers, Contact Information, Biographical Information,
Financial Information, Device Identifiable Information, and other information
collected through the Services to:

· help us improve the content and functionality of the Services;

· better understand our users and their preferences;

· provide customer support;

· personalize experiences and product offerings, including targeted advertising,
for our Services or the products and services provided by some of our Service
Providers; and

· tailor payment plan offerings.

MLS may also use this information to communicate with you regarding the Services
and, to the extent permitted by law, to tell you about services provided by
others we believe may be of interest to you, including for those of legal age,
sports betting and other gaming services.

Enforcement and Legal Obligations: MLS may use your Personal Information to
enforce our MLS Terms of Service or investigate and prevent activities that may

the sale of all or most of MLS’ or a Member Club’s assets or equity to another
company. In the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution,
or similar event in which a third party assumes control of all or part of our
business, Personal Information may be part of the transferred assets or
business.

(B.) Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

Under the CCPA, “Share” is defined to include sharing, renting, releasing,
disclosing, disseminating, or making available Personal Information to a third
party for cross-context behavioral advertising, whether or not for monetary or
other valuable consideration, and a “Sale” is defined broadly to include the
selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available,
transferring, or otherwise communicating the Personal Information of a consumer

In the last twelve months, MLS has Shared and Sold some Non-Sensitive Personal
Information and Non-Sensitive Parent Information, including Personal
Identifiers, Contact Information, Commercial Information, and Inferences drawn
from other Personal Information, to some of its sponsors and partners (e.g.,
jersey sponsors, sports betting and gaming partners, and club operator
affiliates) for the purpose of those sponsors and partners marketing products
and services that may be of interest to our fans. We do not sell, and to our
actual knowledge, we have never Sold Personal Information of consumers we know
are less than 16 years of age.

Personal Information to our sponsors, partners, and other third parties, please
follow the instructions at Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information. We do
not and will not discriminate against you because you opt-out of the sale of

your Personal Information to our sponsors or partners it may mean that you will
not receive some of the benefits or offers provided to others.

partners and other third parties so that they may contact you directly regarding
special promotions or offers (such as subscriptions to and promotions for goods

We will only retain Personal Information for as long as necessary to fulfill the

requirements, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure,
the purposes for which we process the Personal Information and whether we can
achieve those purposes through other means. If we collect “biometric
identifiers” or “biometric information,” as those terms are defined by the
Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (740 ILCS 14), we will delete those
biometric identifiers and information when our initial purpose for collecting or
obtaining your identifiers or information has been satisfied or within three (3)
years of your last interaction with us, whichever occurs first.

 5. Communication Services and Community Features

5.1. Chat Rooms, Forums, and Message Boards

The Services may make chat rooms, forums, blogs, message boards, and other
community features and activities available to you and other users. If you post
Personal Information online, it will be publicly available, and you may receive
unsolicited messages from other parties. We cannot ensure the security of any
information you choose to make public in a chat room, forum, or message board.
Also, we cannot ensure that parties who have access to such publicly available

disclose Personal Information in these areas. We reserve the right (but assume
no obligation) to review and/or monitor any such community areas on the
Services.

5.2. Short Message Service

your wireless carrier’s standard rates apply to these messages.

If you subscribe to one of our SMS Services, you may be required to register and
provide Personal Information. We may also collect the date, time, and content of
your messages in the course of your use of the SMS Service. We will use the
information we obtain in connection with our SMS Service for the purpose of
sending the SMS messages as well as for sharing with advertising partners. If
fees are charged to your wireless account invoice, we may provide your carrier

 6. Third-Party Advertising

We may allow other companies that are providing advertising content, social
networking services, or other services on our Websites to set and access
tracking technologies such as cookies on your computer. These companies may
collect information about your visits to the Websites in order to measure and
assess the effectiveness of online advertising and to provide and better target
advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. While the
information collected by these third parties from you while you are visiting our
Websites is not personally identifiable, some of these third parties may also
combine such de-identified information with other information they have
collected from various other sources, such as their own past online and/or
offline purchase information and web usage from other sites. Such other
information may include Personal Information, as well as demographic and
behavioral information. Those companies’ use of cookies, and the information
collected, are governed by those companies’ privacy policies, not ours. Please
see the “All Users: Your Rights, Choices and Controls” section below for ways to
opt-out of this third party advertising.

 7. All Users: Your Rights, Choices and Controls

You have various choices with respect to the collection of and certain of our
uses of the Personal Information we collect from you on or through the Websites
or Services. If you have not consented to us using your Personal Information as
described in this Privacy Policy, we will only use it to complete the
transaction or provide the service or product you have requested. Please note
that not all of these rights may be available to users in all jurisdictions.
Please note that if you choose to delete your information or opt out of the
collection and use of your information, you understand that certain features of
our Website(s) and/or Services may no longer be available to you.

(i). Your Rights

1.1. Right to Opt-Out/Opt-In

You have the right to direct us not to process your Personal Information for the
purpose of (i) targeted advertising, (ii) the sale of Personal Information, or
(iii) profiling (meaning automated processing performed on your Personal
Information to evaluate, analyze, or predict personal aspects related to your
economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability,
behavior, location, or movement) in furtherance of decisions that produce legal
or similarly significant effects concerning you, including denial of financial
and lending services, housing, insurance, education enrollment, criminal
justice, employment opportunities, health care services, or access to basic
necessities, such as food and water. Please note that MLS may conduct targeted
advertising through our Websites but only with your affirmative consent.

If you have agreed to receive communications or solicitations from us (and/or
signed up for an account with us), and you later change your mind, you can
revise your preferences on the “Account” section of the Websites or through the
MLS Preferences Center, or contact us at Major League Soccer Privacy Policy
Request.\\ You also may opt out of receiving all future promotional e-mails from
us by clicking on an opt-out or “unsubscribe” link within the promotional e-mail
you receive**. Please understand that if you opt out of receiving promotional
correspondence from us, we may still contact you in connection with your other
relationship, activities, transactions and communications with us.

If you have agreed to have us share your Personal Information with third parties
so that they may contact you about promotions (and/or signed up for an account
with us), offers and other information, you can revise your preferences on the
“Account” section of the Websites or through the MLS Preferences Center, or
contact us at Major League Soccer Privacy Policy Request. If you do request to
have us stop sharing your Personal Information with other entities for their
direct marketing purposes, such request will only apply as of the date of your
request, and we will not be responsible for any communications that you may
receive from entities that received your Personal Information prior to such
request. In these cases, please contact that entity directly or click on the
opt-out or “unsubscribe” link that should be included within the promotional
e-mail you receive from such third party.

Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve (12) months
before asking you to reauthorize the processing of your Personal Information for
the above purposes. You may change your mind and opt back in to the processing
of your Personal Information at any time by revising your preferences on the
“Account” section of the Websites or through the MLS Preferences Center, or
contact us at Major League Soccer Privacy Policy Request.

You may opt-out of receiving ads from network advertisers by clicking the
AdChoices icon on advertisements that are sent to you, or visiting the opt-out
pages on the NAI website and the DAA website. Opting out does not prevent you
from seeing ads; it simply means that network advertisers will no longer collect
data for the purpose of providing you targeted ads. The DAA and NAI opt-out
tools are cookie-based. They signal network advertisers so that they do not
collect data online or deliver specific ads targeting you, and only affect the
Internet/web browser on the computer where the cookies are installed. These
opt-out tools will only function if your browser is set to accept third-party
cookies. If you delete an opt-out cookie or all your cookies from a browser’s
cookie files, change web browsers or change computers, you will no longer be
opted out of our data collection and ad targeting, and we may place a new cookie
unless an opt-out cookie is again reset on that browser. Opting out using one
browser on one computer will not opt you out using any other browser on the same
or another computer.

If you are a resident of the Commonwealth of Virginia (and, beginning on July 1,
2023, Colorado and Connecticut; beginning on January 1, 2024, Tennessee;
beginning on July 1, 2024, Texas; beginning on October 1, 2024, Montana;
beginning on January 1, 2025, Iowa; and beginning on January 1, 2026, Indiana),
applicable law requires us to receive your opt-in consent before processing any
“sensitive data”, which includes (1) Personal Information revealing racial or
ethnic origin, religious beliefs, mental or physical health diagnosis, sexual
orientation, or citizenship or immigration status; (2) the processing of genetic
or biometric data for the purpose of uniquely identifying a natural person; (3)
Personal Information collected from a known child; or (4) precise geolocation
data. We may process some of your sensitive data in connection with the Services
and will ask for your opt-in consent before doing so. If you opt-in and change
your mind, you may opt-out by revising your preferences on the “Account” section
of the Websites or through the MLS Preferences Center, or contact us at Major
League Soccer Privacy Policy Request.

1.2. Right to Know

You have the right to know and confirm that we are processing your Personal
Information. You also have a right to access and see what data and Personal
information we have collected about you. To the extent feasible, you may request
for us to also provide a copy of your Personal Information that you previously
provided in readily usable format to permit you to transfer your data to another
entity.

1.3. Right to Modify

You have the right to correct any inaccuracies in the data and Personal
Information you provide to us.

1.4. Right to Delete

You have the right to request that we delete the Personal Information we have
collected from you (and direct our Service Providers to do the same). There are
a number of exceptions, however, that include, but are not limited to, when the
information is necessary for us or a third party to do any of the following:

· Comply with a federal, state or local laws, rules, regulations or other legal
obligations;

· Investigate, establish, exercise, prepare for, or defend any legal claims;

· Provide you a good or service;

· Perform a contract between us and you;

· Protecting an interest that is essential for your or another natural person’s

theft, fraud, harassment, malicious or deceptive activities, or any illegal
activity; or prosecute those responsible for any such action;

prosecute those responsible for any such action;

· Protect the free speech rights of you or other users;

· Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical
research in the public interests that adheres to all other applicable ethics and
privacy laws; or

or technology.

(ii). Exercising Your Rights

To exercise your rights under this Privacy Policy, please submit a verifiable
consumer request to us as indicated in the “Contact Us” section of this Privacy
Policy. Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make
a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Information. You may also
make a request to know or delete on behalf of your child by providing proof of
identity. You may only make a verifiable consumer request to exercise your right
to know twice within a 12-month period at no additional cost to you. The
verifiable consumer request must:

· Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify whether you
are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized
representative.

· Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly
understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we
cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the
Personal Information relates to you. We will not discriminate against you for
exercising any of your rights described above. Unless permitted by the law, we
will not deny you goods or services; charge you different prices or rates for
goods or services; provide you a different level or quality of goods or
services; or suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or
services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

(iii). Response Timing and Format

We will confirm receipt of your request, including requests received pursuant to
the CCPA (as amended by the CPRA) (as discussed below), within ten (10) business
days. If you do not receive confirmation within such timeframe, please contact
us as indicated in the “Contact Us” section of this Privacy Policy. We endeavor
to substantively respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45)
days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to another forty-five (45)
days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that
account, or to the email address associated with the account. If you do not have
an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or
electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will cover the 12-month period preceding receipt of
your request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot
comply with a request, if applicable. Subsection (D) below describes how you can
appeal our refusal to take action on a request to exercise your rights.

For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal
Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the
information from one entity to another entity without hindrance. We do not
charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it
is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the
request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide
you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

(iv). Right to Appeal

If we refuse to take action on your request to exercise your rights, you may
appeal our refusal. To appeal a refusal, please submit a copy of your request
for an appeal and the original request to us as indicated in the “Contact Us”
section of this Privacy Policy. Unless otherwise indicated in this Privacy
Policy, within sixty (60) days of our receipt of your request for an appeal, we

 8. California Residents: Your California Privacy Rights

California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as the “Shine The Light” law,
permits our customers who are California residents to request and obtain from us
once a year, free of charge, information about the Personal Information we
disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes in the preceding
calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like a copy of this
notice, please contact us at Major League Soccer Privacy Policy Request or write
to us at 420 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10018. Attn: Relations. Not all
information sharing is covered by the “Shine The Light” requirements and only
information on covered sharing will be included in our response. Under
California law, businesses are only required to respond to a request once during
any calendar year.

If you are a California resident, then you also have certain rights under the
CCPA, as amended and expanded by the CPRA, regarding your Personal Information:

(A.) Right to Opt-Out

You have the right to direct us not to Sell your personal information (the
“right to opt-out”). If you have opted-in to the Sale of your Personal
Information, you may opt-out of future Sales at any time.

To exercise the right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) may
submit a request to us by visiting the following link:

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve months before
asking you to reauthorize the sale of your personal information. You may change
your mind and opt back in to the sale of your personal information at any time
by making that selection in a Major League Soccer Privacy Policy Request.

You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your opt-out rights. We
will only use the Personal Information provided in an opt-out request to review
and comply with the request.

(B.) Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information

Under the CCPA, some Personal Information you may provide to us is considered
“sensitive” Personal Information, such as your driver’s license, state
identification card, financial information, racial or ethnic origin and
geolocation. You may, at any time, direct us (and our Service Providers) to
limit our use and disclosure of your “sensitive” Personal Information to only
those uses which are necessary to perform the Services, or for any other lawful
purpose. Once you exercise this right, we will not use or disclose your
sensitive Personal Information for any other purposes without your express
consent unless permitted by the CCPA or applicable law. However, we may continue
to use or disclose your Personal Information that is not considered “sensitive”
as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

(C.) Right to Know

You have the right to know and see what data we have collected about you over
the past twelve months, including:

· The categories of Personal Information we have collected about you;

· The categories of sources from which the Personal Information is collected;

· The business or commercial purpose for collecting your Personal Information;

· The categories of third parties with whom we have shared your Personal
Information; and

· The specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you.

(D.) Right to Modify

You have the right to correct any inaccuracies in the data and Personal
Information you provide to us.

(E.) Right to Delete

You have the right to request that we delete the Personal Information we have
collected from you (and direct our Service Providers to do the same). There are
a number of exceptions, however, that include, but are not limited to, when the
information is necessary for us or a third party to do any of the following:

· Complete your transaction;

· Provide you a good or service;

· Perform a contract between us and you;

· Protect your security and prosecute those responsible for breaching it;

· Fix our system in the case of a bug;

· Protect the free speech rights of you or other users;

· Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal
Code § 1546 et seq.);

· Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical
research in the public interests that adheres to all other applicable ethics and
privacy laws;

· Comply with a legal obligation; or

· Make other internal and lawful uses of the information that are compatible
with the context in which you provided it.

(F.)_ Exercising Your Rights_

To exercise your right to know or your right to delete, please submit a
verifiable consumer request to us as indicated in the “Contact Us” section of
this Privacy Policy. Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your
behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal
Information. You may also make a request to know or delete on behalf of your
child by providing proof of identity. However, please note that we may retain
certain Personal Information as permitted by law and will maintain a record of
the request as required by § 999.317(b) of the CCPA regulations. You may only
make a verifiable consumer request to exercise your right to know twice within a
12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

· Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the
person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized
representative.

· Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly
understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a
request related to your Personal Information. To have an authorized agent make a
request under the CCPA on your behalf, please ask the authorized agent to
contact us as set forth in the “Contact Us” section below. Please note that we
may require the agent to provide us with proof that you have given them signed
permission to submit the request. We may also require that you either verify
your identity directly or directly confirm that you provided permission to your
authorized agent. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal
Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request
and confirm the Personal Information relates to you.

The requirements above do not apply if you have provided the authorized agent
with power of attorney under the California Probate Code sections 4121 to 4130.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights
described above. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not deny you goods or
services; charge you different prices or rates for goods or services; provide
you a different level or quality of goods or services; or suggest that you may
receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or
quality of goods or services. However, please note that if we are unable to
provide your Personal Information to our sponsors or partners it may mean that
you will not receive benefits provided to other consumers (e.g., sample products
or services).

 9. Your Additional Rights in the UK and European Economic Area

If your personal data has been collected in connection with our activities in
the UK or European Economic Area (“EEA”), you have the following rights:

· Withdrawal of Consent: If consent is the lawful basis of our processing, you
have the right to withdraw any consent that you have provided to us to process
your personal data.

· Access: You have the right to access your personal data.

· Rectification: You have the right to rectify inaccurate personal data.

· Erasure: You have the right to have your personal data erased if it is no
longer necessary for the purposes for which it was processed, you have withdrawn
your consent to, or object to, its processing and there is no other legitimate
grounds for processing it or you believe that it has been unlawfully processed.

· Restriction: You have the right to have the processing of your personal data
restricted if you contest its accuracy, if its processing is unlawful, if we no
longer need it but you need it preserved for purposes of a legal claim, or if
you have objected to its processing and are awaiting verification of our
legitimate grounds for processing it.

· Data Portability: You have the right to have certain personal data you provide
to us transferred to another company in a machine-readable format.

· Objection: You have the right to let us know that you object to the further
use or disclosure of your personal data for certain purposes.

In order to exercise any of these rights, or for more information, please use
the contact details specified in Section 16. Please note that these rights are
subject to certain preconditions and qualifications under applicable law.

You also have the right (where applicable) to withdraw any consent given in
relation to the processing of your personal information.

Please note that the right to erasure is not absolute and it may not always be
possible to erase personal data on request, including for example where the
personal information must be retained to comply with a legal obligation.

If you are in the UK, you may lodge a complaint with the Information
Commissioner’s Officer (https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/)). If you are in
the EEA, you may lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority that has
authority in your country or region. Please click here for contact information
for such authorities. Major League Soccer, L.L.C. is the controller of personal
data collected through the Services.

 10. Security Practices

We use reasonable security efforts to protect the Personal Information in our
possession. However, no method of transmission or storage of data is 100% secure
and we will not be responsible for any damage that results from a security
breach of data or the unauthorized access to or use of information, whether
Personal Information or Device Identifiable Information. To the extent we
provide your Personal Information to any third parties, we will request that
they use reasonable security measures to protect your information.

 11. Links to Other Services

The Services (including without limitation MLS NEXT) may contain links to other
websites and online services, including links to our Service Providers,
partners’ or advertisers’ websites. When you link to such other sites and
services (including by means of clicking on hyperlinks, logos, widgets, banners
or advertisements), you become subject to their terms of use and privacy
policies posted thereon and/or applicable thereto. Because we cannot control the
activities of third parties, please note that we are not responsible for the
privacy practices of third-party websites. We encourage you to be aware of this
when you click on a link and leave the Websites, and to read the privacy
policies of every website that collects Personal Information from you.

 12. U.S. Operations, Non-Discrimination, and Making a Complaint

The Services are operated and maintained within the U.S. We make no assurances
or representations of any kind that the Services are suitable for use outside
the U.S. or in the country in which you reside. The information we collect is
kept on servers in the U.S. and may be transferred to servers in other
countries, subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy. We retain the Personal
Information that we collect for so long as we continue to have a business
purpose for it.

By accessing and/or using a Service, establishing an account, or making a
purchase, you consent to the processing of your Personal Information as provided
in this Privacy Policy. You may withdraw that consent by contacting us at Major
League Soccer Privacy Policy Request or through the MLS Preferences Center.
Please know that when you withdraw your consent, we may still use your
information to the extent necessary to complete a transaction with you or as
otherwise permitted by law. You are required to provide certain Personal
Information in order to use a Service, to make a purchase or to take advantage
of certain features available through the Websites. Your choice not to provide
this information may prevent you from using the Services or may result in a need
to terminate your account or an inability for you to use certain features. It is
not our intent to discriminate against you for exercising your rights or the
choices available to you. But, without certain information, the Websites and
Services may not work as designed.

If you wish to object to or raise a complaint on how we have handled your
Personal Information, you may contact us at Major League Soccer Privacy Policy
Request.

If you are not satisfied with our response or believe our processing of your
Personal Information is not in accordance with law, you may register a complaint
with the appropriate governmental authority. Major League Soccer, L.L.C.
controls the Personal Information collected via the Websites and Services.

 13. Changes to this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy replaces any earlier version. You should review this Privacy
Policy periodically as we may modify it from time to time. If we change our
Privacy Policy in the future, we will post the changed Privacy Policy on the
homepage of the Websites and other locations where the policy was previously
posted. You will be able to determine what version of the Privacy Policy applies
by the “Effective Date” placed under the title. Where consistent with applicable
law, your continued use of the Services after we have changed the Privacy Policy
signifies your acceptance of the revised terms. Under certain circumstances
(e.g., with respect to certain material changes to this Privacy Policy,
including the way we use or share Personal Information previously collected from
you through the Services), we may also elect to notify you through additional
means, such as posting a notice on the front page of the Websites or by means of
an e-mail.

 14. Children’s Data

General Rules: We collect Personal Information from children under the age of 18
in certain areas of the Websites and as Participants in MLS NEXT and MLS GO, but
only with affirmative parental consent. If we learn we have collected or
received Personal Information from a child under 18 without verification of
parental consent, we will endeavor to delete that information.

Information Collected and Parental Rights: If your child wants to register on or
participate in certain activities in the areas of the Services (including,
without limitation, MLS NEXT and MLS GO) that are directed to children under 18,
we will only allow such registration/participation to proceed if we have your
affirmative consent. During the registration process, we may collect certain
information from your child, including Personal Information such as their name
or e-mail address, as well as a parent or guardian’s email address in order to
obtain your affirmative consent. We will then send you an e-mail (which will
include a link to this Privacy Policy), advising you about the portion of the
Services in which your child has expressed interest, and request that you reply
by e-mail if you consent to your child’s participation. In the reply e-mail, we
may request further Personal Information from you (as defined in the main part
of this Privacy Policy) about you and/or your child, but we will not request
such information from your child. We will then send you a confirmatory e-mail of
your child’s registration. Once your child is registered, we may request them to
provide general information such as their favorite player. Under the Children’s
Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), Parents have the right to:

· Review their child’s Personal Information, direct us to delete it, and refuse
to allow any further collection or use of their child’s Personal Information,
and

· Agree to the collection and use of their child’s Personal Information without
allowing sharing with third parties, unless the disclosure is part of the
service offered.

Parents can contact the Privacy Administrator at the address or email asset
forth at the end of this policy and we will respond to their requests.

Information Use and Disclosure: We – and any of our Member Club(s) the child
indicates interest in – may use the Personal Information to provide the child
with the special services for which he or she has registered, such as membership
in a Kids club, receipt of newsletters, or participation in contests. We do not
condition a child’s participation in any of our online activities on the
disclosure of more information than is reasonably necessary to participate in
the activity.

Currently, the portions of the Websites that are directed to children under 18
do not have unscreened chat rooms, blogs, or other similar community
functionality that would permit your child to disclose information to others or
publicly. In addition, any “postcard” or “share with a friend” feature that may
be available on these portions of the Websites will collect the recipient’s
e-mail address, but not the sender’s; permit the sender to type in a first name
and last initial; supply the content or allow the sender to select a
pre-determined message from a menu; and be sent immediately, at which time the
recipient’s e-mail address as collected from the sender is deleted from our
records.

Please note that we require Participant (if over 18, or Parent if under 18)
explicit consent for our collection and use of performance and tracking data,
and physiological data, each time Participant wears technology that generates
that data or otherwise gives MLS NEXT and/or MLS GO clubs or us access to that
data. For more details on the use of wearable technology and optical trackers
for performance monitoring, please see Section 15 (Performance Monitoring and
Wearable Devices).

Personal Information collected on or through any portions of our Services that
are directed to children under 18 may be shared with Service Providers (as
defined above) with whom we contract to operate the Services. However, we will
not share any Personal Information collected from children through our Services
to our Service Providers, partners or any other third party in connection with
sports betting and gaming services. As set forth above, we endeavor to maintain
the confidentiality, security, and integrity of the Personal Information
collected from your child. Other than our Service Providers and as described
above, we will not share your child’s Personal Information with third parties.
We may also collect, use and disclose this Personal Information as described in
the other sections of this Privacy Policy.

 15. Performance Monitoring and Wearable Devices

The use of GPS-based performance monitoring within elite soccer in the U.S.,
Canada, and Europe is common and is widely considered to be a safe and effective
method of gaining valuable, objective data on player performance that can be
used not only to improve individual player development, but also to identify
players at risk of injury and potentially help reduce the risk of future injury.
Employees and Participants participating in an MLS or MLS NEXT club may be given
the option to wear performance monitoring devices and may also be subject to
optical tracking. These monitoring devices quantify physical performance,
including physical load and movement, during training and matches for Employees
and MLS NEXT Participants and measure physical metrics such as distance, speed,
acceleration, deceleration, high-speed running, load, and heart rate.

 16. Automated Decision Making and Profiling

We do not foresee making any substantive decisions about individuals using
automated means or profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or
similarly significant effects concerning the subject individuals; however, we
will notify you in writing if this position changes.

 17. Exclusions

This Privacy Policy does not apply to any Personal Information collected by MLS
other than Personal Information collected through the Services or, in the case
of Employee Personal Information, relating to recruitment, applications and
employment. This Privacy Policy also does not apply to information about
businesses or other non-individual users. MLS reserves the right to use and
disclose aggregated or de-identified information for any commercially reasonable
purpose.

Privacy Policy or if you would like to exercise your applicable data protection
