How to Submit A Request Regarding Your Personal Information
You can submit a verifiable request to us to exercise your right to know personal information a business collects or uses and the right to delete personal information collected by the business. Your request to us must be a verifiable request, meaning that we must be able to verify your identity and that the personal information that we collect relates to you. We will confirm that we received your request within 10 business days, and we will provide you with information on how we will process your request. We will respond to your request within 45 calendar days once we receive your request.
In your verifiable consumer request you should include a description of your request including enough information for us to understand and respond appropriately.
If we cannot verify your identity within the described time period, we may deny your request. If we need more time, we will inform you of the reason for the delay during this time period and may extend the time to respond up to an additional 45 calendar days.
The process we will use to verify your request to know the personal information collected or used about you and your request to delete the personal information is to identify you with information that you have previously provided to us and with information from account(s) or transactions. We may request additional information in order to identify your identity.
We will acknowledge receipt of your request and advise you how long we expect it will take to respond if we are able to verify your identity.
For individuals submitting a request on behalf of another person, we may require proof of authorization and verification of identity directly from the person for whom the request is made. For a company or organization submitting a request on behalf of another person, we may require proof of authorization from the individual such as a power of attorney and verification of identity directly from the person for whom the request is made.
In some instances, we may not be able to honor your request. For example, we will not honor your request if we cannot verify your identity or if we cannot verify that you have the authority to make a request on behalf of another individual. Additionally, we will not honor your request where an exception applies, such as where the disclosure of Personal Information would adversely affect the rights and freedoms of another consumer or where the Personal Information that we maintain about you is not subject to the CCPA's access or deletion rights or is required under other prevailing rules.
We will advise you in our response if we are not able to honor your request. We will not provide Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers or government issued identification numbers, financial account numbers, health care or medical identification numbers, account passwords or security questions and answers, or any specific pieces of information if the disclosure presents the possibility of unauthorized access that could result in identity theft or fraud or unreasonable risk to data or systems and network security.
We will work to process all verified requests within 45 days pursuant to the CCPA. If we need an extension for up to an additional 45 days in order to process your request, we will provide you with an explanation for the delay.
