Privacy Notice to California Residents

Privacy Notice to California Residents (“CA Notice”)

This Privacy Notice to California Residents (“CA Notice”) is only for California residents and supplements the other sections of this Privacy Policy. This CA Notice explains how we collect, use and disclose your “personal information” (as that term is defined by California law) and how you may exercise your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”). If you are not a California resident, this does not apply to you.

Your Rights.

As a California resident, you have the following rights:

Right To Know

You have the right to request that we disclose to you the personal information we collected about you in the 12-month period preceding your request. This right includes the right to request: (1) specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you; (2) categories of personal information we have collected about you; (3) categories of sources from which the personal information was collected; (4) categories of personal information that we sold or disclosed for a business purpose about you (if applicable); (5) categories of third parties to whom your personal information was sold or disclosed for a business purpose (if applicable); and (6) the business or commercial purpose for collecting or, if applicable, selling your personal information.

Right To Delete

You have the right to request that we delete your personal information that we have collected from you, with some exceptions. Note that if you request that we delete your information, we may be unable to provide you with certain offers or services.

Right To Correct

You have the right to correct inaccurate personal information we maintain about you.

Right To OPT Out Of Sale

You have the right to say no to the sale of personal information. The CCPA defines “sell” to mean selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a California resident’s personal information to another business or a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration.

Right To Limit Processing Of Sensitive Personal Information

If we use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes other than those allowed by the CCPA and its regulations, the right to limit our use and disclosure.

Right To Non-Discrimination

You have the right to non-discrimination for exercising your CCPA rights. This means we cannot deny you goods or services, charge you different prices, or provide a different level of quality of goods or services just because you exercise your rights under the CCPA.

How To Exercise Your Rights.

We have provided a list of the categories of personal information we have collected in the preceding 12 months below, as well as a list of the categories of personal information we have shared with others for business purposes. If you have questions or would like to further exercise your rights, you may contact us via email or webform. Our email address and webform link are provided in Section 12 below. Please note that to protect your information, we may need additional information from you to verify your identity before processing your request. Under the CCPA, you may exercise these rights yourself or you may designate an authorized agent to make these requests on your behalf. We reserve the right to request that your authorized agent have written permission from you to make requests on your behalf and may need to verify your authorized agent’s identity.
