If you are a California resident, California law provides you with the following rights with respect to your personal information:
We do not sell your personal information, as defined in the CCPA.
You may submit requests to delete and/or to know personal information we have collected about you by accessing our California Consumer Rights request portal or by contacting our Toll-Free Telephone Number at: +1 (888) 914-9661 (PIN 659429)
We will respond to your request in compliance with the requirements of CCPA or other applicable law.
When you exercise these rights and submit a request to us, we or our partners will verify your identity by asking you to authenticate your identity via standard authentication procedures. For example, we may ask for your email address, order numbers of previous orders of our products and services, the last four digits of a credit or debit card or bank account number used to make a purchase, or the date of your last purchase from us. We also may use a third-party verification provider to verify your identity.
If you make a request under the CCPA, we will not discriminate against you in any way. For example, we will not deny you goods or services, charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, deny you discounts or other benefits or impose penalties on you, or provide you with or suggest that you will receive a different level or quality of goods or services.
You may permit an authorized agent to submit a request to know or to delete your personal information. If we receive a request on your behalf, we will ask that person to give us proof that you gave that person written permission to make a request for you. If that person does not provide us with written proof, we will deny their request so that we can protect your personal information.
