While the Company does not monetize your personal information, in the preceding 12 months the Company has “sold” consumer personal information to third parties, as we understand the term “sold” to be defined by the CCPA. In particular, we share personal information as follows:

• Should you ever view any embedded Vimeo or Youtube video material on our Site, please be aware that they apply their own cookies which help you stay logged in, suggest recommended videos, volume preference and help Vimeo and Youtube to deliver advertisements. For further information regarding their policies, please refer to these webpages:
  • https://vimeo.com/cookie_policy
  • https://policies.google.com/privacy (YouTube)

The Company does not sell the personal information of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years of age without affirmative authorization.

IV. California Rights and Choices

Subject to certain restrictions, the CCPA gives California residents certain rights to request access to personal information that the Company has about you, to request deletion of personal information that we collect and maintain, and to opt-out of the sale of personal information about you. This section describes how you can exercise those rights and our process for handling your requests.

a. Right to Request Access to Your Personal Information

California residents have the right to request a copy of the following: (1) the categories of personal information we collected about you; (2) the categories of sources from which the personal information is collected; (3) the business or commercial purpose for collecting or, if applicable, selling, the personal information; (4) the categories of third parties with whom we share personal information; and (5) the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you.

To submit a request, please visit our online request portal https://homestagingide.com/privacy-policy or call (909)680-9951.

In order to verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information you must log in to your account before making a request, or if you do not have an account, we will verify your identity by matching at least two pieces of personal information provided by you with personal information maintained by us that we have determined to be reliable.

If your request involves receiving specific pieces of personal information (rather than categories of personal information), we must first verify your identity by matching at least three pieces of personal information provided by you with personal information maintained by us that we have determined to be reliable. Then, you must provide a signed declaration under penalty of perjury that you are the consumer whose personal information is the subject of the request.

We cannot respond to your request to provide any personal information if we cannot verify your identity using the information provided.

b. Right to Request Deletion of Personal Information

You have the right to request that we delete personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions.

To submit a request, please log in to your online account and visit our online request portal https://homestagingide.com/privacy-policy or call (909)680-9951. In order to process your request, you must first verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information. If your request relates to non-sensitive information, we can verify your identity by our online account login information, or if you do not have an account, by matching at least two data points provided by you with two data points already maintained by us.

If your request involves sensitive personal information, we must first verify your identity by matching at least three pieces of personal information provided by you with personal information maintained by us that we have determined to be reliable.

c. Request Processing and Timing

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. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.

Any disclosures we provide in response to data access and/or data portability requests will only cover the 12-month period preceding the receipt of your request. We will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance, which in most cases will involve Adobe PDF and comma delineated data files. We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

d. Right to Opt-Out of the Sale of Personal Information

You have the right, at any time, to direct us not to sell your personal information by clicking here: Do Not Sell My Personal Information. Please note that we may continue to share your personal information where the disclosure is not a “sale” as defined by the CCPA. For example, we may continue to share information as required to comply with the law.

e. Right to Non-Discrimination for the Exercise of Privacy Rights

California residents have the right to not be discriminated against for exercising their rights as described in this Notice. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your CCPA rights.

f. Designating an Authorized Agent

You may use an authorized agent to submit a request to opt-out of the sale of personal information on your behalf if you provide the authorized agent written permission to do so.

If you use an authorized agent to submit a request for additional disclosures described in Section I or a request for deletion described in Section II, he or she must provide their name, email address, phone number, and written permission from you that includes your contact information. We will contact you using the information provided and verify your identity directly with us. We cannot respond to your request to provide additional disclosures or delete any personal information if we cannot verify your identity and the authorized agent’s authority to make the request on your behalf. Written permission is not required if the agent provides proof of power of attorney pursuant to Probate Code sections 4000 to 4465, or you are submitting the request on behalf of your minor child.
