California Users’ Rights Under the CCPA
The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) took effect January 1, 2020 and provides California consumers with certain rights regarding their personal information.
The section “Personal Information We Collect and Use” explains the specific details of personal information that we collect. The CCPA also requires listing categories of personal information collected.
As defined by the CCPA, we collect, or have collected in the past 12 months, the following categories of personal information:
-
Identifiers (such as name, email address, postal address, phone number, IP address)
-
Personal information categories listed in the California Customer Records statute [ Civ. Code § 1798.80(e)] such as name, contact information, employment
-
Commercial information (such as transaction information, purchase history, payment information)
-
Internet or other electronic network activity information (such as browsing history, search history, online behavior)
​
Personal information, as defined by the CCPA, does not include publicly available information from government records and de-identified or aggregated consumer information.
We use and disclose the categories of personal information we collect from and about you consistent with the business purposes discussed in the section “How We Use the Information.”
​
The CCPA also sets forth obligations for businesses that “sell” personal information to third parties. We do not “sell” personal information and have not sold any personal information in the past 12 months. However, we recognize that exchanging your information to other providers for something of value may be considered “selling” under the CCPA’s definition and want to err on the side of transparency.
​
Under the CCPA, among other rights, California consumers have the right to:
-
Request that a business that collects a consumer's personal data disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal data that a business has collected about consumers.
-
Request that a business delete any personal data about the consumer that a business has collected.
-
Request that a business that sells a consumer's personal data, not sell the consumer's personal data.
If you make a request, you will be required to verify your identity before we are able to fulfill your request. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please:
-
Provide us with the information to which your request relates, including any account, order or reference numbers, if you have them.
​
Note that consumers may only make a personal information request twice in a 12-month period under the CCPA. We will work to respond to your verifiable request within 45 days of receipt. Certain information may be exempt from requests under applicable law.
Nevada Users’ Rights
Residents of the State of Nevada have the right to opt out of the sale of certain pieces of their personal information to third parties who will sell or license their information to others. If you are a Nevada resident and would like to make such a request, please contact hello@speechieadventures.com with your request.
