Your Right to Request Correction of Inaccurate Personal Information
Certain states provide the right to request correction of inaccurate personal information maintained by us. We may request documentation from you to determine the accuracy of the information. If you provide us documentation either upon our request or through your own initiative, that documentation will only be used for the purpose of correcting your personal information and complying with our recordkeeping requirements.
As an alternative to correction, we may delete the inaccurate information if it does not negatively impact you or if you consent to this deletion. We reserve the right to deny this request if allowed under applicable law, or if we determine that the contested information is more likely than not accurate, based on the totality of circumstances. You can submit a correction request through a verified consumer request. That process is described below in the section, " How to Exercise Your Rights."

Certain states provide the right to request that we delete any of your personal information collected by us, subject to certain exceptions. You can do this through a verified consumer request. That process is described below in the section, "How to Exercise Your Rights."

Upon receipt of our denial or refusal to take action on, or to respond to, a verified consumer request, a consumer has 90 days to submit a request to appeal our decision by using the web form or by calling toll-free 877-353-6053. For those states, we will timely inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response of your request. We will also include a written explanation of the reasons for our decision.
Right to Opt-Out of Certain Profiling
You have the right to opt-out of our use of profiling when used to make decisions that produce a legal or similarly significant effect concerning you or your interactions with us. Currently, Company does not engage in such profiling.
How to Exercise Your Rights
You may exercise your rights, as applicable by state law, by submitting a verified consumer request to know information (and to receive your personal information in a portable format), to correct information, or for deletion.
The response to a request to know will provide the personal information we have collected and maintained about you, in a portable format, unless an exception under applicable state law applies. Please note that, depending on the applicable state law, we may not be required to provide personal information to you if you make multiple requests in a certain time period. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.
You can submit requests using the following web form or by calling toll-free 877-353-6053. Your request will be verified using information you provide as described on the web form. If you call 877-353-6053 you will be asked to provide the same information requested on the web form for verification purposes.If you submit a request that is not through one of the above designated methods or is deficient in some manner unrelated to verification, we will provide you with information on how to submit the request or remedy any deficiencies with your request.
Once we receive your verifiable consumer request, we will confirm receipt of the request within 10 business days, or as allowed under applicable law, describing our verification process. We will respond to your request within 45 calendar days, or as allowed under applicable law, if we are able to verify your identity. Requests for deletion will require a separate confirmation that you want your information deleted.
Requests to Know or Delete for Child Under the Age of 13: We do not knowingly collect information of minors under the age of 13.
Opt-Out Preference Signals/Universal Opt-Out Mechanism
Our use of tracking technologies may be considered a sale/sharing for targeted advertising under applicable state law. You can opt-out of being tracked by these third parties by clicking the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link at the bottom of our website and selecting your preferences, or by broadcasting an Opt-Out Preference Signal/Universal Opt-Out Mechanism, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC) (on the browsers and/or browser extensions that support such a signal). Your request to opt-out of sale/sharing will be linked to your browser identifier only and not linked to any account information because the connection between your browser and the account is not known to us. Because the signal is browser-specific, you will need to broadcast subsequent signals if you are accessing our website through different online devices (e.g., computers, smartphones, tablets).
Your Right to Non-Discrimination for the Exercise of a Privacy Right
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your state privacy rights. However, we may still offer you certain financial incentives permitted under applicable state law, such as discounts, rewards, premium features, loyalty accounts, or club card programs that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels.

If you use an authorized agent, you may provide a power of attorney executed pursuant to California Probate Code sections 4000 to 4465.
