This section is for California residents and supplements our Privacy Policy. It explains how we collect, use, and share your Personal Information and how to exercise your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). (“Consumers”).
As used in this section, “Personal Information” means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, to you. Personal Information does not include publicly available information; information that is aggregated or de-identified; information excluded from the CCPA's scope, like health or medical information covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA), or personal information covered by certain sector-specific privacy laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FRCA), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), or California Financial Information Privacy Act (FIPA).
Under the CCPA, you have the following rights:
Right to Know. You have the right to request information about the categories and sources of Personal Information we collect, our purposes for collecting the information, and the types of third parties that receive that information.
Right to Request Deletion. You have the right to request that we delete your Personal Information that we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions.
We may deny your request if retaining the information is necessary for us or any applicable third party to: (i) to complete the business purpose for which we collected the Personal Information, provide a 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; (ii) to make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it; (iii) to comply with a legal obligation; or (iv) to detect security incidents, or fraudulent or illegal activity.
Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out of the sale of your Personal Information, and to request information about whether we have sold your Personal Information in the past 12 months.
Right to Non-Discrimination. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights. However, in some circumstances, for example where you have requested or consented to our services that use your Personal Information to provide the service, we may not be able to provide a service if you choose to delete your Personal Information.
To exercise any of these rights, or to designate an agent or authorized representative to act on your behalf, you can contact us through our designated CCPA processes by going to the Acadia Compliance Alert Form to submit an electronic form. Please note that to protect your information and the integrity of our Products, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
