California Resident Rights

If you are a California resident, you have the following rights:
• Right to Know/Access. You may have the right to obtain a copy, or a list of categories of the personal information that we hold about you, as well as other supplementary information, such as the purposes of processing, the categories of entities to whom we disclose your personal information, and the specific pieces of personal information we hold about you.

• Right to Delete. Under certain circumstances, you have the right to request that we delete the personal information that we hold about you. This right is not absolute, and we may refuse such a request if there are compelling legitimate grounds for keeping your personal information, for legitimate purposes, or as required by law. In addition, in the event your deletion request is honored, we may retain a record of your deletion as required under applicable law.

That notice will identify the categories of personal information shared with third parties and used for direct marketing purposes and the name and address of the third parties that received such personal information.

Exercising Your Rights

Unless specified above, you may exercise these rights by emailing us at [email protected]. When you submit a rights request, before honoring such a request, we may take additional steps as necessary and/or as required by applicable law to verify your identity.

You may authorize someone to act as your agent and submit a request on your behalf. You must supply your agent with written permission to act on your behalf, and your agent must provide proof of such authorization before we will act upon the request. If you are submitting a request to access or delete through an authorized agent, you must verify your identity directly with us, unless your authorized agent is acting pursuant to a power of attorney under applicable law.

Retention

Except as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law or regulation, we endeavor to retain your information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, as required by law or to satisfy any legal or reporting obligations, or as necessary to resolve disputes. To determine the appropriate retention period for your information, we consider applicable legal requirements, the amount, nature, and sensitivity of your information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your information, and the purposes for which we process your information. Our service providers will retain your information solely in accordance with our instructions and will not retain your information longer than the periods mentioned above.

Financial Incentives

A business may offer financial incentives for the collection, sale or deletion of California residents’ personal information, provided the incentive is not unjust, unreasonable, coercive or usurious, and is made available in compliance with applicable transparency, informed consent, and opt-out requirements. California residents have the right to be notified of any financial incentive offers and their material terms, the right to opt-out of such incentives at any time, and may not be included in such incentives without their prior informed opt-in consent. We do not offer any incentives at this time.
