Section 1 – Residents of California:

Your Rights to Request, to Know, to Correct, and to Access Personal Information

If you want to know the Personal Information we have collected, processed, or otherwise obtained about you in the last twelve months, you may submit a verifiable consumer request to us, and subject to our verification of that request, we will provide you with the following information:

  • the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you;
  • the categories of sources from which the Personal Information is collected;
  • the business or commercial purpose for collecting, disclosing or selling, if applicable, your Personal Information; and
  • the specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you.

In addition to these disclosures, you may submit a verifiable consumer request up to two (2) times in a twelve-month period for access to your Personal Information. When you submit an access request, you can request that we respond by mail or electronically. If you elect to receive the information electronically, to the extent it is technically feasible for us to do so, we will provide the requested information in a portable and readily usable format that allows you to transmit this information to another entity.

In order to submit a verifiable consumer request, please visit the “How You Can Submit a Verifiable Consumer Request for a Request to Know, Access, Correct or Delete” section below.

Right to Correct

If you want to correct inaccuracies in the Personal Information we have collected, processed, or otherwise obtained about you in the last twelve months, you may submit a verifiable consumer request to us, and subject to our verification of that request, we will provide you with the opportunity to correct the inaccuracies, taking into account the purposes of processing the Personal Information.

Right to Delete

If you want us to delete the Personal Information we have collected from you, you can send us a verifiable consumer request requesting that we delete some or all of your Personal Information. Once we receive and confirm your Personal Information request, we will delete such personal information from our active records. We will also notify any service providers and third parties with whom we have shared your Personal Information of your request.

Deletion requests are subject to certain limitations. We are not required to delete information where we are permitted or required to retain it, such as for tax or record keeping purposes, to process orders and transactions, and for solely internal uses consistent with your relationship with us. If we deny your request to delete based on any of these exceptions, we will inform you in writing of the reason.

HOW YOU CAN SUBMIT A VERIFIABLE CONSUMER REQUEST FOR A REQUEST TO KNOW, ACCESS, CORRECT, OR DELETE

For us to process a request to know, access, correct, or delete, it is necessary for us to verify your identity. We will ask you to provide certain additional information about yourself, such as name, physical address, email address and phone number, or other identifying information, to compare to information we have on file for you to verify your identity. We cannot fulfil your request if we cannot verify your identity.

It may take up to forty-five (45) days to fulfil your request. If we cannot complete your request within the initial forty-five (45) day period, we will notify you in writing within forty-five (45) days of your initial request.

To exercise one or more of your consumer rights, please submit a verifiable consumer request:
