California Consumer Privacy Rights Under CCPA

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, also known as CCPA, became effective on January 1, 2020, and grants California residents specific rights regarding their personal information.

Our “Personal Information We Collect and Use” section provides detailed information about the personal data we collect. CCPA mandates the disclosure of categories of personal information collected. In accordance with CCPA, we collect or have collected, within the past 12 months, the following categories of personal information:

  1. Identifiers (e.g., name, email address, postal address, phone number, IP address)
  2. Personal information categories outlined in the California Customer Records statute (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.80(e)) such as name, contact information, and employment details
  3. Commercial information (e.g., transaction history, purchase records, payment data)
  4. Internet or other electronic network activity information (e.g., browsing history, search history, online behavior)


It’s important to note that personal information, as defined by CCPA, excludes publicly available government records and de-identified or aggregated consumer data.

We utilize and disclose the categories of personal information collected in alignment with the business purposes detailed in the “How We Use the Information” section.

CCPA also imposes responsibilities on businesses involved in “selling” personal information to third parties. We do not engage in the “sale” of personal information and have not done so in the past 12 months. However, we acknowledge that transferring your information to other providers in exchange for something of value might be considered a “sale” under CCPA’s definition, and we want to be transparent about this possibility.

If you are a California resident, you have the following consumer rights under CCPA:

  1. Right to Know: You can request that we disclose the categories of personal information we collect or have disclosed about you in the past 12 months, including the sources of this information, the purposes for collecting it, and the categories of third parties with whom we share/disclose it. This information is also provided throughout this Privacy Policy.
  2. Right to Deletion: You have the right to request the deletion of the personal information we collected from you, subject to certain conditions and legal limitations.
  3. Right to Opt-Out: CCPA allows consumers to opt out of the sale of their personal information. We do not share, sell, rent, or trade User Personal Information with third parties for commercial purposes, as defined under CCPA.
  4. Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights under CCPA.

To exercise any of these rights, please get in touch with us at a[email protected]. Verification of your identity is required before we can fulfill your request. You can also appoint an authorized agent to act on your behalf, but you must provide written authorization or power of attorney signed by you for the agent to act on your behalf. Identity verification is still necessary. Note that consumers can request personal information twice in a 12-month period under CCPA. We will strive to respond to your verifiable request within 45 days of receipt, with certain exemptions permitted under the law.

 

Nevada Consumer Rights

Nevada residents have the right to opt out of the sale of specific elements of their personal information to third parties who may further sell or license it. If you are a Nevada resident and wish to make such a request, please contact us at [email protected]
