request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use
of your Personal Information over the past 12 months from the date we receive

exceptions. Once we receive and verify your request, we will delete and direct

consent.

are compatible with the context in which you provided it.
d.) Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights. To exercise the

us by using the contact details in Section 1.
e.) Requests. You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data
portability, in relation to this Section, twice within a 12-month period. We cannot
respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot
verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal
Information is related to you.
Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account
with us. We will only use Personal Information provided via a verifiable consumer
request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.
f.) Authorized Agent. An authorized agent is any person or legal entity registered
with the Secretary of State or similar office that you have authorized to act on
your behalf. If a request is made by an authorized agent acting on your behalf,

agent to submit a verifiable request on your behalf;
• For you to directly acknowledge, via electronic communication, that the
authorized agent is allowed to act on your behalf;
• Require the authorized agent to verify their identity; or
• For a power of attorney document to be submitted that is signed in
accordance with state law.
We reserve the right to deny a request from an agent that does not submit proof
that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf and cannot verify
their own identity to us.
g.) Response Timing and Format. As required under CCPA, we agree to respond
to any verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require
more time, with a maximum of 90 days, we will inform you, in writing, of the
reason. Such notification will be by e-mail unless there is another preferred
communication method provided.
8.RESPONSE
Any response we provide will cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable
consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the
reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability
requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is
readily useable and should allow you to transmit the Personal Information from
one entity to another entity without hindrance. No fee will be charged to process
or respond to your verifiable consumer request.
h.) Right of Non-Discrimination. We do not discriminate against you for exercising
any of your rights in this Policy and under applicable laws. Unless permitted by
law, we will not:
• Deny you goods or services;
• Charge you different prices or rates for goods, services, and offerings,
including through granting discounts or other benefits, imposing penalties
