Notice For California Residents
If you are a California resident, provisions of the Privacy Policy will apply to you subject to several additional things you need to know about processing of your personal data pursuant to California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), which went into effect on January 1, 2020.
Your Rights
Under CCPA, you have the following rights regarding your personal information:
Right to know what personal information we collect about you and the purposes of that collection, as well as know how your personal information is used: you have the right to know what personal information about you we collect, the sources from which it is collected, and the purposes for which we collect it.
Right to know with whom we share your personal information: you have the right to know whether we share your personal data with any third parties. We may share your personal information with third parties who help us run our business.
Right to know whether any of your personal information is sold: we do not sell or rent out your personal information.
Right to “Opt-Out of Sale” of your personal data: we do not sell your personal data to third parties and therefore do not offer an “opt-out” mechanism.
Right to access, request, and receive personal information: you have the right to request which personal data was collected about you and receive a copy of such information. We will disclose and deliver the required information to you in the manner described in the CCPA after receiving a verifiable request from you.
Right to request deletion of your personal data: you have the right to request deletion of your data from our systems to the extent provided by the CCPA.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Please contact us if you have any further questions regarding your rights under the CCPA (see the “Contact Information” section for contact details). This should be a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. The verifiable consumer request must provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative and describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. All requests must be labeled “California Resident Request” on the email subject line.
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 only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request. We will reply within 45 days of request receipt. If we need more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response electronically.
