Your Rights and Choices

The CCPA provides citizens of California with certain rights regarding their Personal Information.

Access to Particular Information and Data Portability

You have the right to request disclosure of specific information on our collection and use of your Personal Information during the preceding 12 months. Once we have received and confirmed your request as a legitimate consumer, we will reveal to you:

The categories of Personal Data we collected about you.
The categories of sources from which we collected your Personal Information.
Our commercial or corporate reason for collecting or selling this Personal Information.
The categories of third parties we share Personal Information with.
The specific Personal data we have acquired about you (also called a data portability request)
If we sold or disclosed your Personal Information for a business purpose, we will provide two separate lists:
sales, identifying the categories of Personal Information that each category of recipient obtained;
disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the categories of Personal Information that each category of recipient obtained.

Rights to Request Removal

Subject to certain exclusions, you have the right to request that we remove any of your Personal Information that we have acquired and stored. Once we receive and confirm your genuine consumer request, we will remove your Personal Information from our records (and direct our service providers to do the same), unless an exception applies.

We may decline your request to delete your Personal Information if keeping it is required for us or our service providers to:

Complete the transaction for which we obtained the Personal Information, deliver the product or service you requested, take measures that are reasonably expected within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise carry out the terms of our agreement with you.
Detect security incidents, guard against harmful, deceptive, fraudulent, or unlawful conduct, or bring those guilty for such crimes to justice.
Debug products in order to find and correct faults that impede present functionality.
Exercise free speech, protect the freedom of another customer to exercise free expression, or exercise a different legal right.
Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Penal Code sections 1546 § seq.).
If you previously provided informed consent, you may engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that complies with all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the deletion of the information would likely render the research's completion impossible or severely impair its quality.
Permit only internal uses that are congruent with customer expectations based on our connection with you.
Comply with a legal obligation
Use this information for other internal and lawful purposes that are compatible with the context in which you submitted it.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights

To exercise your access, data portability, and/or deletion rights as outlined above, please make a verifiable consumer request by:

Emailing us at [email protected].

Only you or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you allow to act on your behalf may submit a verifiable consumer request regarding your Personally Identifiable Information. Additionally, you may submit a request on behalf of a minor child.

You may only submit two verifiable consumer requests for access or data portability per calendar year. The request from a genuine consumer must:

Provide sufficient information for us to verify that you are the individual about whom we have acquired Personal Information or your authorized representative.
Provide sufficient information for us to comprehend, assess, and reply to your request.
We are unable to reply to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we are unable to validate your identity or authorization to make the request and confirm that the Personal Information requested pertains to you. You do not need to register an account with us to submit a genuine consumer request. We shall only utilize Personal Information submitted in a valid consumer request to confirm the identity or authority of the requestor.

Timing and Structure of Responses

We strive to react to verified consumer requests within 45 days of receiving them. If we require additional time (up to 90 days), we will notify you in writing of the reason and extension term. Our written response will be delivered by mail or electronically, per your preference. Any disclosures we make will be limited to the twelve months immediately preceding our receipt of your verifiable request. If applicable, our response will include an explanation of why we cannot comply with a request. For data portability requests, we shall send your Personal Information in a manner that is usable and should allow you to transmit it from one entity to another.

We do not charge a fee to process or react to your verifiable consumer request unless it is exorbitant, recurrent, or clearly without basis. If we find that the request requires a price, we will explain our reasoning and provide a cost estimate prior to fulfilling your request.

Non-Discrimination

We shall not hold you accountable for exercising your CCPA rights. Unless the CCPA permits it, we will not:

Deny you goods or services.
Charge you varying prices or rates for goods or services, including through the provision of discounts or other advantages, or the imposition of penalties.
Differentiate the degree or quality of the goods or services you receive.
Insinuate that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services, as well as a different degree or quality of goods or services.
