CALIFORNIA CITIZEN RIGHTS

Individuals who reside in the state of California, a “consumer,” as that term is defined under California law, have additional rights reserved under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Shine the Light law:

• Right to Opt-Out. We do not sell personal information.
• Right to Request Personal Information. As a consumer, you have the “right to know” and request that we disclose what personal information we collect, use, and disclose. See the instructions below for submitting a verifiable request, including through the online request form offered by us. You have the right to request the categories of personal information, as detailed under the CCPA, we have collected and store about you. In addition, you have the right to request categories of sources of personal information we collected about you, the business or commercial purpose for collecting, the categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information, and the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you. Categories of personal information that we disclosed about you for a business purpose may also be requested, with the appropriate lists provided under the CCPA. Upon receipt of a verifiable consumer request, described below in this Privacy Statement/Notice, from you to access personal information, we will promptly take steps to disclose and deliver, free of charge to you, the personal information required by this section and within the timeframes permitted for responding to exercise of this or other applicable right(s). The information may be delivered by mail or electronically, dependent on portability and technical considerations under the CCPA. We may provide personal information to you at any time following a verified request, but shall not be required to provide personal information to you more than twice in a 12-month period.
• Right to Delete Personal Information. You have the right to request we delete personal information we, or our service providers, store about you. Please keep in mind our response to such a request, upon verification, may include an explanation of the business purpose under which we may retain your information (for example, we would need to retain copies of a business transaction for financial records) in accordance with the CCPA.
• Non-Discrimination. If you elect to exercise any right(s) under this section of our Privacy Statement, we will not discriminate or retaliate against you.

If you are a California consumer and would like to submit a request based on this section of our Privacy Statement, please use this web form, email us at support@vendorwire.com. Also, be sure to check this policy for updates as we will review it at least every 12 months and make updates as necessary.

Identity Verification Requirement.  We are required by law to verify that any data access request submitted under the authority of the CCPA was made by someone with the legal right to access the personal information requested. Therefore, prior to accessing or divulging any information pursuant to a data subject access request, under the terms of the CCPA, we may request that you provide us with additional information in order for us to verify your identity, your request, and legal authority (ex. authorized representative). Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. Please indicate in your request if either of these apply, as additional verification may apply (ex. verify consumer’s identify and confirm with impacted person(s) that the authorized agent has permission to submit the request).

A verifiable consumer request must provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative. A verifiable request must also include sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

In general, our verification process includes reviewing the information submitted in the request, comparing it to the right(s) requested; the number of verification points/methods required by the CCPA; and the type, sensitivity, and risk of information requested, including to the consumer, from unauthorized disclosure or deletion. An account is not required with us in order to make a request. We will use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity and authority to make the request, or otherwise as permitted by the CCPA (ex. record retention). We will respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt, and if we require more time (up to 90 total days), we will inform you of the reason of the extension in writing. A response to a consumer request will be provided as required by the CCPA, such as through an account (if one exists), or otherwise by mail or electronically.

Access Request Responses. Under the CCPA, there may be certain circumstances where we would deny your request to access, receive, or delete personal information we hold.  For example, we would deny requests where any such access or disclosure would interfere with our regulatory or legal obligations, where we cannot verify your identity, and/or where exemptions/exceptions permitted by the CCPA apply. We also have the ability under the CCPA to deny requests if it would result in our disproportionate cost or effort. However, even where we will not substantively complete a request made under the CCPA, we will still provide a response and explanation to your request within a reasonable time frame and as required by law.

Disclosure of Categories. As defined by the CCPA, categories of personal information collected from consumers by us within the past 12 months include:

Personal information may also be collected in the course of a natural person acting as a current or former job applicant, employee, director, officer, or contractor within the context of that natural person’s role. Additional information collected may include emergency contact and information to administer benefits, including to another person.

“Personal information” does not include publicly available information, meaning information that is lawfully made available from federal, state, or local government records. “Publicly available” does not mean biometric information collected by a business about a consumer without the consumer’s knowledge. “Personal information” also does not include consumer information that is deidentified or aggregate consumer information. This Notice addresses online and offline practices by us. Information excluded from the CCPA’s scope includes health or medical information covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). Other information excluded includes those covered by the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA) or clinical trial data, and personal information covered by certain sector-specific privacy laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) or California Financial Information Privacy Act (FIPA), and the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act of 1994.

Personal information is collected and may be used to provide the services to you, to perform obligations under agreements, to provide information and notifications to you or an authorized representative, to protect the rights and safety of you and/or others, to comply with court and other legal requirements, for business purposes and as otherwise set forth in the CCPA, to conduct organizational and operational needs, and as otherwise described when collecting personal information or within this page. A request for personal information collected and/or deletion, noted above, may involve categories and/or specific pieces of information. However, certain exemptions and exceptions may apply in responding to a request.

This business has not sold categories of personal information within the meaning of the CCPA, including minors under 16 years of age.

Categories of personal information from our consumers disclosed for a business purpose within the past 12 months include:

(A) Identifiers such as real name, alias, postal address, unique identifiers, online identifiers, internet protocol address, email address, account name, social security number, driver’s license number, passport number, or similar identifiers;

(G) Geolocation data;

Categories of sources from which personal information was directly and indirectly collected in the past 12 months include from you and/or authorized agents (ex. documents provided to us related to the services for which you/they engage us, and information we collect in the course of providing services to you/them); interaction with our platforms and services (ex. website portal); and third parties (ex. those that provide services such as purchased information, advertising networks, internet service providers, operating systems and platforms, social networks, and data brokers). This could include information obtained on websites and services from third parties that interact with us in connection with the services we perform or are linked to.
