EXERCISING YOUR CALIFORNIA RIGHTS

California Consumers have the right to request: (1) that we disclose to you what Personal Information we collect, use, disclose, and sell, including the right to request that we provide to you the categories and specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you (“Right to Know”); (2) that we delete the Personal Information we have collected from you (“Right to Delete”); (3) that we correct inaccurate Personal Information we hold about you “Right to Correct”), (4) to opt-out from the sharing of your Personal Information to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising (i.e., targeted advertising) (“Right to Opt-Out of Sharing”), and (5) the right to opt-out from the sale of Personal Information (“Right to Opt-Out of Sale”), all subject to meanings and exceptions set forth in the CPRA. More information on each of these rights is below.

In your request, you must provide enough information to allow us to verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information, or their authorized representative. You must also describe your request with enough detail so that we can understand, evaluate and respond to it. We can’t respond to your request if we can’t verify your identity. Making such a request does not require you to create an account with us, and we will only use the information you provide in a request to verify your identity.

Verifying Your Requests

We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity based upon the information you provide and the type of request you are making.

When you exercise your Right to Know, Right to Delete, and/or Right to Correct, we may ask that you provide us with information, beyond your full name, in order to verify your identity and fulfill your request. If we are unable to verify that the individual submitting the request is the same individual about whom we have collected information (or someone authorized by that individual to act on their behalf), we will not be able to process the request.

Agents

If you are an authorized representative submitting a request on a user’s behalf, please complete the applicable request per the instructions below. We will follow up to request a signed, written permission signed by the individual who is the subject of the request authorizing you to make the request on their behalf. The written permission must state your full legal name, the full legal name of the individual who is the subject of the request, and needs to be clear about the permission granted.

Alternatively, you may submit a copy of a power of attorney under Probate Code sections 4000-4465. In either case, please also indicate in your email the nature of your request. The Consumer’s identity, in addition to your own, will need to be independently verified in order for us to be able to fulfill your request. We may also ask the Consumer to directly confirm with us that they provided you permission to submit a request. Please keep in mind that if we do not receive adequate proof that you are authorized to act on the user’s behalf, we may deny the request.

Right to Know

California Consumers have the right to know what information we have collected about you (the categories and the specific pieces of information).

If you are a California Consumer and would like to exercise your Right to Know, please submit your request through the form or by calling us toll-free at 1-855-921-0222.

In order to have us provide specific pieces of information, we may require a signed declaration under penalty of perjury that you are the Consumer whose Personal Information is the subject of the request.

Right to Delete

California Consumers have the right to request that we delete any of the personal information we have collected from you. If you are a California Consumer and would like to exercise your Right to Delete, please submit your request through the form or by calling us toll-free at 1-855-921-0222.

Please note that as part of the verification process, once you submit a request to delete, we may follow up and require you to confirm that you want your information deleted.

Right to Correct Inaccurate Information

California Consumers have the right to request that we correct inaccurate information we hold about you. If you are a California Consumer and would like to exercise your Right to Correct, please submit your request through the form or by calling us toll-free at 1-855-921-0222.

Right to Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information

Under the CPRA Regulations, a business must only provide the Right to Limit The Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information when Sensitive Personal Information is collected or processed for the purpose of inferring characteristics about a Consumer, or does not fall under certain statutory exceptions, pursuant to CPRA §1798.121.
