Your California Privacy Rights (As provided by California Civil Code Section 1798.83)
We shall comply with the privacy rights provided to California residents under that state’s law: A California resident who has provided personal information to a business with whom he/she has established a business relationship for personal, family, or household purposes (“California Customer”) is entitled to request information about whether the business has disclosed personal information to any third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes.
If You are a California Customer, and if We’ve made such a disclosure of Your personal information, upon receipt of a request, We will provide a list of all third parties to whom Your personal information was disclosed in the preceding calendar year, as well as a list of the categories of personal information that were disclosed.
Please note, under this law, We are not required to provide the above-described lists if We adopt and disclose to the public (in Our Privacy Policy) a policy of not disclosing customers’ personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless the customer first affirmatively agrees to the disclosure, as long as We maintain and disclose this policy. We can comply with the law by notifying You of Your right to prevent disclosure of personal information and providing a cost free means to exercise that right.
