This section describes your privacy rights and explains how to exercise those rights. Upon verification of your identity you may:
● No more than twice in any 12-month period, request disclosure of the following information:
● Categories of Personal Information we collect.
● Categories of sources from which Personal Information is collected.
● Categories of Personal Information sold or disclosed to third parties.
● Categories of third parties with whom such Personal Information is sold or disclosed.
● Business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling Personal Information.
● Specific pieces of Personal Information we collect.
● Request to correct inaccurate Personal Information.
● Request deletion of your Personal Information, subject to the exceptions provided by law.
● Opt-out from having your Personal Information sold to or shared with third parties, if applicable.
● Limit use and disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information for any purpose other than the pre-approved business purposes identified in the privacy law.
Our use of Sensitive Personal Information is already limited to the approved business purposes identified above. Requests can be submitted by calling our number 623-266-2660. You can also opt out of having Personal Information transmitted through third party cookies and pixels by clicking on the “Opt Out” link. Please note that these rights apply only to California consumers. 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. Except where you have provided an agent with a Power of Attorney pursuant to Sections 4000 – 4465 of the California Probate Code, when using an authorized agent you must: (1) provide the agent with signed permission clearly describing their authority to make a request on your behalf; (ii) verify your own i dentity; and (iii) directly confirm that you have provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request.
That agent must also be able to verify their i dentity with us and provide us with their authority to act on your behalf. The verifiable consumer request initiated by you or your authorized agent must:
● Include your full legal name, email address, and phone number, which we will need to contact you in order to verify that you are the personabout whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative.
● Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. 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. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. One of our representatives will contact you in order to verify your identity. You may need to provide additional information in order to verify your request. Depending on the nature of the request, we may require additional verification actions be taken, including but not limited to providing a signed declaration under penalty of perjury that you are the consumer whose Personal Data is the subject of the request. We will only use this information to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request. We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:
● Complete the transaction for which we collected the Personal Information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
● Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
● Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
● Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
● Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 ).
● Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethicsand privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
● Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
● Comply with a legal obligation.
● Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. You also have the right to be free from discrimination if you choose to exercise your rights under the law, and AC Medics will not discriminate by:
● Denying you goods or services.
● Charging you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
● Providing you a different level or quality of goods or services.
● Suggesting that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services. Other California Privacy Rights. California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits California residents who have provided personally identifiable information to us or our third-party advertisers and marketing partners, if any, to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personally identifiable information to third parties for direct marketing purposes. We do not share information we collect about you with third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes.
