Your State Privacy Rights

The California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (collectively, “California Privacy Law”), as well as other state consumer privacy laws, provide their residents with additional rights regarding our use of their personal information.  These rights are described below.

The Right to Know and to Confirm, and the Right to Data Portability

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 (the “right to know” and the “right to confirm”). Once we receive your request and confirm your identity, we will disclose to you:

• The categories of personal information that we collected about you.

• The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a “data portability” request).
• If you submit a data portability request, we will provide you with a copy of your personal information in a common and portable format that you may transfer to another organization of your choosing.

The Right to Delete

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 (the “right to delete”). Once we receive your request and confirm your identity, we will review your request to see if an exception allowing us to retain the information applies. We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

1. Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
3. Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
4. Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another individual to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
5. Comply with specific laws, such as the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 seq.).
6. Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
7. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with your expectations based on your relationship with us.
8. Comply with a legal obligation.
9. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

We will delete or deidentify personal information not subject to one of these exceptions from our records and will direct our service providers to take similar action.

The Right to Correct Inaccurate Information

You have the right to correct any inaccurate personal information about you that we have in our possession (the “right to correct”).  Once we receive your request and confirm your identity, we will disclose to you the specific pieces of personal information that we have collected about you.  You will then have the opportunity to direct us to correct the pieces of information which you believe are inaccurate.

We may deny your request to correct if we believe the updated information is incorrect or is being used for any fraudulent or deceptive purpose.

The Right to Restrict Sensitive Personal Information Processing

You have the right to restrict our processing of your sensitive personal information (the “right to restrict”).  Once we receive your request and verify your identity, we will cease the processing of your sensitive personal information for the purpose of inferring characteristics about you.  Please note that we may continue to process your sensitive personal information for other purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy.

The Right to Opt Out of the Processing and Sale of Personal Information

You have the right to direct us to not process your personal information for targeted advertising and to not sell your personal information at any time (the “right to opt-out”). Once we receive your request, we will no longer use or process your personal information for the purpose of providing targeted advertising to you based on your activity and interests.  We will also no longer sell (as that term is defined by relevant and applicable state law) your personal information to third parties for targeted advertising purposes.

The Right to Opt Out of the Sharing of Personal Information for Cross-Contextual Behavioral Advertising

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights under applicable state privacy law.  Unless permitted by state law, we will not:

• Deny you goods or services.
• Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
• Provide you with a different level or quality of goods or services.
• Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by state privacy law that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. This may include loyalty and rewards programs. Any legally permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your personal information’s value and will contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects.
