Exercising Access and Deletion Rights

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by:

• Emailing us at [email protected]

Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State and authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Information. If you are not a resident of California, only you may make the request. You may also make a request on behalf of your minor child if you believe we have inadvertently collected Personal Information from your child. You can make a verifiable consumer request only twice within a 12-month period.

The request must include:

• Sufficient information to allow us to reasonably verify that you are the person whose Personal Information we collected, or an authorized representative of that person; and
• A description of your request in sufficient detail that we can understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or that you have authority to make the request. You are not required to create an account with us to make a verifiable consumer request, however requests made through your password-protected account are considered sufficiently verified that we will provide information associated with the account used to make the request.

We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

Timing and Format of Our Response

We try to respond to a verifiable request within 45 days of receipt. We may extend that time for another 45 days, for a total of 90 days, but if we do we will let you know we have extended it and what our reasons are.

If you have an account with us, we may deliver our response to you through that account, or through your registered email address. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our response to an email address you provide.

Our response will cover the 12-month period preceding your verifiable request. If we cannot comply with a request, our response to you will explain why. For data portability requests, we will select a readily usable format to provide you with your Personal Information. The format should allow you to transfer your Personal Information from one entity to another with relative ease.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to a verifiable request.

DATA SECURITY

We have implemented measures to secure your Personal Information against accidental loss and to protect it from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure.

Although we do our best to protect your Personal Information, you should understand that transmission of information over the internet is not completely secure. We cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information transmitted to, through, or by the website. Any transmission of Personal Information is done at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures used by the website.
