This section of our Privacy Notice applies to consumers who reside in California. We adopt this section to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”).
If you are a California resident, you have the following rights. We will honor requests received to the extent required by applicable law and within the time provided by law.
A. Right to Access and Information Regarding Personal Information
You have the right to request that we disclose to you the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you. Specifically, you have the right to request that we disclose the following to you, in each case in the twelve-month period preceding your request:
- The categories of personal information we have collected about you;
- The categories of sources from which the personal information is collected;
- Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling personal information;
- The categories of third parties with whom we share personal information;
- The specific pieces of information we have collected about you;
- The categories of personal information about you, if any, that we have disclosed for monetary or other valuable consideration and the categories of third parties to which we have disclosed the information, by category or categories of personal information for each third party to which we disclosed the personal information; and
- The categories of personal information about you that we disclosed for a business purpose.
- The categories of sensitive personal information to be collected and the purposes for which the categories of sensitive personal information are collected or used and whether such information is sold or shared, except for such information that is collected or processed without the purpose of inferring characteristics about you.
We will deliver personal information that we are required by law to disclose to you in the manner required by law within 45 days after receipt of a verifiable request, unless we notify you that we require additional time to respond, in which case we will respond within such additional period of time required by law. We may deliver the personal information to you electronically or by mail at your option. If electronically, then we will deliver the information in a portable and, to the extent technically feasible, in a readily usable format that allows you to transmit the information from one entity to another without hinderance.
B. Right to Deletion of Personal Information
You have the right to request that we delete Personal Information about you that we have collected directly from you. If we have received your Personal Information from a Client, we may not be able to delete that Personal Information, as there are business requirements and contracts in place with our Clients that require us to retain some portion of your Personal Information for our financial records and for audit purposes. You may contact us as outlined below to let us know if you want your Personal Information deleted.
C. Right to Opt Out
You have the right to opt out of the disclosure of Personal Information about you for monetary or other valuable consideration. We don’t disclose your Personal Information for monetary or valuable consideration but if this changes, we will update this Privacy Notice and accept your requests regarding your preferences.
D. Right to No Discrimination
We may not discriminate against you because of your exercise of any of the foregoing rights under the CCPA, including by:
- Denying you services;
- Charging different prices or rates for services, including through the use of discounts or other benefits or imposing penalties;
- Providing you a different level or quality of services; or
- Suggesting that you will receive a different price or rate for services or at a different level or quality of services.
We may, however, charge different prices or rates, or provide a different level or quality of services, if that difference is reasonably related to the value provided to us by your personal information.
