California Privacy Rights Policy
The California Consumer Privacy Act and the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA/CPRA”) provide California residents with specific rights regarding their personal information. In addition to our Privacy Policy, which can be found by viewing our privacy policy on our site, this California Privacy Rights Policy further describes your CPRA/CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.
Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights
You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:
Deletion Rights
You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and direct applicable service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.
We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or applicable service providers to:
Correction Rights
You have the right to request that we correct inaccurate personal information about you. We will consider the nature of the personal information and the purposes of the processing of the personal information in responding to your request. We will process your request if we receive a verifiable request, and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to correct the inaccurate personal information as directed pursuant to the CCPA/CPRA.
Your Right to Limit the Use of Sensitive Personal Information
You have the right, at any time, to direct us to limit our use of your sensitive personal information only to that which is necessary to perform the services or provide the goods reasonably expected or to fulfil the reason that we collected such information and/or other permissible business purposes. Sensitive personal information includes:
Generally, we do not collect sensitive personal information from you except for geolocation data. We may use or disclose such sensitive personal information to provide you with products and/or services or direct advertising to you. Also note that this information may be used or disclosed to a service provider or contractor pursuant to a written agreement in order to provide such products and/or services or directed advertising. Note that this right to limit such uses does not apply to sensitive personal information that is collected or processed without the purpose of inferring characteristics about you.
Exercising Your Rights
To exercise the rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:
Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.
You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:
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. For all requests, if the information is not already included on the form or website, it is helpful to put the statement “California Privacy Rights” in the body of your request, describe the nature of your request, and provide your name, street address, city, state, and zip code. In your request, you need to provide enough information that allows us to reasonably verify that you are the person that we collected information about. We will not require you to incur any costs or fees to process or provide a verifiable request.
Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us.
We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.
“Do Not Track” Signals
Some web browsers allow you to set a global “Do Not Track” flag that is visible to websites. We will treat these flags as valid opt-out requests under California law. However, note that these signals are associated with a specific device and will not transfer when you switch web browsers, such as from a laptop to a mobile device. Additionally, we do not keep records that match users to their web browsers or IP addresses. Therefore, you will need to submit a written request to exercise these rights as they relate to your information in our customer records.
Response Timing and Format
We will confirm receipt of a verifiable consumer request within 10 business days and provide information about how we will process the request.
We will provide a response to a verifiable consumer request within 45 calendar days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 45 calendar days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.
We will deliver our written response electronically.
Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. 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.
Selling and Sharing Opt-Out Rights
We may use your personal information to provide you with targeted advertisements or marketing communications we believe may be of interest to you. Because some of the data analytics providers whose collection of information may be considered as the selling and/or sharing of information, as those terms are defined under the law, you can submit an opt-out request.
A consumer or their representative may instead submit a request to opt out of sharing or selling by sending an email to [email protected].
Please note that online opt-outs are device and browser-specific. You may still see personalized ads from us while using a different device or browser, unless you also opt-out using that device or browser.
Please note that some third-party vendors do not respect the U.S. Privacy String [insert hyperlink to https://iabtechlab.com/standards/ccpa/], which is the mechanism we use to communicate your Request to Opt-Out to third parties that collect information via cookies on our website. If you choose, you may also use the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) WebChoices Tool to globally opt-out of third-party tracking via website cookies. For more information, see our Cookie Policy [insert hyperlink to Cookie Policy].
Additionally, we do not intend to market to any individual under the age of 18, and we expressly prohibit, anyone under the age of 18 from disclosing or submitting any personal information to us through our Site or other means. Therefore, we do not sell or share any information of any individual under the age of 18.
Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least 12 months before asking you to reauthorize personal information sharing for cross-context behavioural advertising or sale. However, you may change your mind and opt back in to personal information sharing for cross-context behavioural advertising and sale at any time by emailing us at [email protected].
You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your opt-out rights. To the extent any information is collected, we will only use personal information provided in an opt-out request to review and comply with the request.
Non-Retaliation/No Discrimination
We will not retaliate or discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights. Unless permitted by law, we will not:
