Deletion Requests
Pursuant to the CCPA, you have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete and will direct our service providers to delete your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

Opt-out and Opt-in Rights for Sale of Personal Information
In the past twelve (12) months we have not sold personal information to a third-party for monetary or other valuable consideration.

We will only use the personal information and other data in the opt-out request to review and comply with the request.
Verification on Consumer Request and Timeline

If you make a request on behalf of another individual, we will need to verify that you have the authority to do so. You must also describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate and respond to such request. 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 relates to you. We will not honor your request if an exception to the law applies.
We will try and respond to requests within forty-five (45) days after our receipt of such verifiable request (or within such other time as required by applicable law). If we need additional time, we will notify you in writing and inform you of the reason for the extension of time. For the avoidance of doubt, any such requests for personal information will cover the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the date of such verifiable request.
