To learn more about whether you are guaranteed certain rights, or to submit a request to exercise your rights, please contact us using any of the methods in the Contact Us section.

VIII. Exercising Your Data Subject Rights

To exercise any of the rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us via the methods described below.  The verifiable consumer request must:

      • Provide sufficient Information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Information, or an authorized representative; and
      • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

If we cannot verify your identity based on the processes described above, we may ask you for additional verification Information.  If we do so, we will permanently delete the verification information that you provide promptly after we have completed the verification process.  We will not use that Information for any purpose other than verification.  Under certain U.S. Privacy Laws, you may also designate an authorized agent to make these requests on your behalf, provided that the authorized agent is a natural person or a business entity that you have authorized to act on your behalf.  If you use an authorized agent to submit a request, we may need to collect additional Information, such as (1) proof of written permission for the authorized agent to make requests on your behalf, and identity verification from you; or (2) proof of power of attorney pursuant under applicable law; to verify your identity before processing your request to protect your information.

If we cannot verify your identity to a sufficient level of certainty to respond to your request, we will let you know promptly and explain why we cannot verify your identity.

A. Requests Through Your Password-Protected Account:

If you created a password-protected account with us before the date of your request, we will rely on the fact that your request has been submitted through your account as verification of your identity.  We may require that you to verify your identity before we disclose your personal information in response to a request to know and before we delete your personal information in response to a request to delete.  You are responsible for protecting the security of your log-in credentials for your account.  Please do not share your log-in credentials with anyone.  If we suspect fraudulent or malicious activity on or from your account, we will not respond to a request to know or a request to delete until we have been able to confirm, through further verification procedures, that you made the request.

B. Requests Other Than Through A Password-Protected Account:

If you submit a request by any means other than through a password-protected account that you created before the date of your request, the verification process that we follow will depend on the nature of your request.

To help protect your privacy and maintain security, if you request access to or deletion of your Information, we will take steps and may require you to provide certain Information to verify your identity before granting you access to your Information or complying with your request.  In addition, if you ask us to provide you with specific pieces of Information, we may require you to sign a declaration under penalty of perjury that you are the consumer whose Information is the subject of the request.  Only you or your authorized agent may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Information.  If you designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, we may require you to provide the authorized agent written permission to do so and to verify your own identity directly with us (as described above).  You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.
