    • Responding to inquiries and other messages
    • Providing marketing materials and emails
    • Audience measurement and analytics (e.g., understanding of how the Website is used, the locations where Consumers engage with the Website, engagement with social media and other marketing channels such as email, measuring clickthroughs from URLs)

You may only make such requests twice per every twelve (12) months.
    2. Deletion: You have the right to request that we delete personal information collected and maintained about you, subject to certain exceptions. Once your request is verified and we have determined that we are required to delete that information in accordance with applicable law, we will delete your personal information accordingly. Your request to delete your personal information may be denied if it is necessary for us to retain your information under one or more of the exceptions listed in the CCPA. Please note that a record of your deletion request may be kept pursuant to our legal obligations, as discussed below.
    3. “Do Not Sell” Requests: We do not “sell” your personal information, as such term is defined under the CCPA, nor do we have actual knowledge of any “sales” of personal information of minors under the age of sixteen (16).

  4. Verifying Your Rights Requests

    Only you, or a person that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a request related to your personal information. In the case of access and deletion, your request must be verified before we can fulfill such request.

    Verifying your request will require you to provide sufficient information for us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected personal information or a person authorized to act on your behalf (e.g., name, email address).
