California Privacy Rights
If you are a resident of California, you have specific rights regarding your personal information, as outlined by the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Civil Code Section 1798.83 (“Shine The Light” law):
- Right to Know: You have the right to request what personal information we collect, use, disclose, and sell. You may request details about specific pieces of information we hold about you or broader categories of information.
- Right to Delete: You can request that we delete the personal information we have collected from you, subject to certain legal exemptions (e.g., for fraud prevention or legal compliance).
- Right to Opt-Out of Sale of Personal Data: Under CCPA, California residents can opt-out of the sale of their personal data to third parties. While we do not currently “sell” personal information as defined by CCPA, you can still exercise your rights by contacting us.
- Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights, such as denying services or charging different prices.
- Shine The Light Law: Under this law, California residents may request information about the types of personal data shared with third parties for direct marketing purposes, and the names of those third parties. You are entitled to make such a request once per year, free of charge.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details provided below. We will respond within 45 days of receiving your request, as required by California law.
Do-Not-Track Features
California law requires us to disclose how we respond to Do-Not-Track (DNT) signals. At present, no uniform technology standard for DNT signals has been adopted. As a result, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals. If this changes in the future, we will update this policy accordingly.
Changes to This Policy
We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or to comply with new legal requirements. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed.
