STATE SPECIFIC PRIVACY LAWS

State laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (“ CCPA”), the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (“ VCDPA”), the Colorado Privacy Act (“ CPA”), the Connecticut Act Concerning Personal Data Privacy and Online Monitoring (“ CTDPA”), and the Utah Consumer Privacy Act (“ UCPA”) provide specific rights to Consumers within those states with respect to the Personal Information a covered business or controller collects from a User.  This includes rights to (1) request access to the Personal Information we collect about the User and (2) request deletion or correction of such Personal Information. As we obtain Personal Information from Consumers on behalf of our Customers, we may be asked to assist our Customers with responding to access and deletion requests under these state laws.

CCPA Application to us (California)

Under the CCPA, a “ service provider” is defined as an entity that:

(i)           processes information on behalf of a business and

(ii)          to which the business discloses a Consumer’s Personal Information for a business purpose pursuant to a written contract that prohibits the entity receiving the information from retaining, using, or disclosing the Personal Information for any purpose other than for the specific purpose of performing the services specified in the written or as otherwise permitted under the CCPA.

Pursuant to our agreements with our Customers, we act as a service provider for all Customers who retain our Services. We do not use any Personal Information we collect through our Services for any purposes not included in our agreements.

For Deletion Requests:

With respect to data collected by service providers, the CCPA provides a specific exception to deletion requests where data is maintained by a “ business or a service provider” in order “ to enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with the expectations of the consumer based on the consumer’s relationship with the business and compatible with the context in which the consumer provided the information.” Cal. Civ. Code sect. 1798.105.

Because we collect Personal Information from Consumers on behalf of and at the direction of our Customers for the sole purpose of serving our Customers, and do NOT use the data for any purposes outside of our agreed-upon Services, our maintenance of Personal Information on behalf of our Customers we are exempt from deletion requests under the CCPA. Additionally, a Consumer who provides information to us is intending to provide that information for use by us in providing our Services to our Customer with whom the Consumer has a relationship. We are therefore using the Consumer’ Personal Information ‘ to enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with the expectations of the consumer based on the consumers’ relationship with the business and compatible with the context in which the consumer provided the information.’ Accordingly, we are not obligated to delete Personal Information in response to a Consumer request and, given the necessity of data retention in order to continue to provide Services to our Customers and the technical concerns with ad hoc deletion, we will not delete Personal Information in response to such requests.

For Data Access Requests:

If our Customer receives a data access request from a California Consumer and determines that we may have relevant data, our Customer can use our self-service portal to access the relevant information for production to the Consumer. Should a Customer be unable to access a specific Consumer’s Personal Information through the portal, our Customer may make a direct request to us to assist with the request. We will endeavor to provide our Customers with a response to any such request within 30 days of our receipt of the request.

For Correction Requests:

If our Customer receives a correction request from a California Consumer and determines that, we may have relevant data, our Customer can use our self-service portal to access the relevant information for production to the Consumer. Our Customer may then submit any correction to the data necessary and we will create a separate record noting the correction.  Note: our records are read-only and may not be modified, so the corrected data will exist in a new record, but will not remove the old record.

VCDPA Application to us (Virginia):

Under the VCDPA, a processor is defined as “ a natural or legal entity that processes personal data on behalf of a controller.”  Pursuant to our agreements with our Customers, we act as a processor for all Customers who retain our Services. We do not use any Personal Information we collect through our Services for any purposes not included in our agreements with our Customers.

For Deletion and Correction Requests:

The VCDPA does not limit a processor’s ability to collect, use or retain data to: “ Perform internal operations that are reasonably aligned with the expectations of the consumer or reasonably anticipated based on the consumer’s existing relationship with the controller or are otherwise compatible with processing data in furtherance of the provision of a product or service specifically requested by a consumer or the performance of a contract to which the consumer is a party.”  Va. Code Ann. § 59.1-582

Additionally, a Consumer who provides information to us is intending to provide that information for use by us in providing Services to our Customer with whom the Consumer has a relationship. We are therefore using the Personal Information in a way ‘reasonably aligned with the expectations of the Consumer or reasonably anticipated based on the Consumer’s existing relationship with the controller or are otherwise compatible with processing data in furtherance of the provision of a product or service specifically requested by a Consumer.’ Accordingly, we are not deleting or modifying Personal Information in response to a Consumer request and, given the necessity of data retention in order to continue to provide Services to our Customers and the technical concerns with ad hoc deletion, we will not delete or modify Personal Information in response to such requests.

For Data Access Requests:

If a Customer receives a data access request from a Virginia Consumer and determines that we may have relevant data, our Customer can use our self-service portal to access the relevant information for production to the Consumer. Should a Customer be unable to access specific Personal Information through the portal, our Customer may make a direct request to us to assist with the request.

For Deletion and Correction Requests:

The CPA does not restrict a processor’s ability to: “ perform internal operations that are reasonably aligned with the expectations of the Consumer based on the Consumer’s existing relationship with the controller.”  § 6-1-1304et seq, C.R.S.

The CTDPA does not limit a processor’s ability to collect, use or retain data to: “ Perform internal operations that are reasonably aligned with the expectations of the Consumer or reasonably anticipated based on the Consumer’s existing relationship with the controller or are otherwise compatible with processing data in furtherance of the provision of a product or service specifically requested by a Consumer or the performance of a contract to which the Consumer is a party.”  CTDPA § 10 (b)(4).

Because we collect Personal Information from Consumers on behalf of and at the direction of our Customers for the sole purpose of providing Services to our Customers, and do NOT use the data for any purposes outside of our agreed-upon Services, our maintenance of Personal Information on behalf of our Customers we are exempt from deletion requests under the CTDPA.
