5. Additional Privacy Information for California Residents  

California residents have certain rights regarding their personal information. Subject to certain exceptions, if you are a California resident, you may request:    

• access to certain of your personal information including the right to know the categories of personal information we have or will collect about you and the reason we will or have collected such information;  

• correction of certain of the personal information that we have or will hold about you that is inaccurate;  

• deletion or removal of certain of your personal information.  

You also have the right not to be discriminated against (as provided for in California law) for exercising your rights. 

Exceptions to Your Rights: There are certain exceptions to these above rights. For instance, we may retain your personal information if it is reasonably necessary for us or our service providers to provide a service that you have requested or to comply with law or to detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity or prosecute those responsible for that activity. 

Exercising Your Rights: To exercise one of the rights above, you may contact us as provided below. 

We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before responding to a request. In doing so, we may ask you for verification information so that we can match at least two verification points with information we maintain in our files about you. If we are unable to verify you through this method, we shall have the right, but not the obligation, to request additional information from you. 

California law places certain obligations on businesses that “sell” personal information to third parties or “share” personal information with third parties for “cross-context behavioral advertising” as those terms are defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”). We do not “sell” or “share” the personal information covered by this Policy and have not done so in the twelve months prior to the effective date of this Policy.
