Your California Privacy Rights
If you are a resident of the state of California, you are entitled to make certain requests regarding your personal information. SteelCell will fulfill each of these requests per the requirements of California law.
The CCPA provides Californians with the following rights:
- Right to know. You can request access to a copy of personal information we have about you, including a list of categories of your personal information that we have and/or specific pieces of personal information that we have.
- Right to correct. If we maintain inaccurate personal information about you, you can request us to correct that inaccurate personal information.
- Right to delete. You can request that we delete your personal information. We honor such requests unless an exception applies, such as when the information is necessary to complete the transaction or contract for which it was collected or when information is being used to detect, prevent, or investigate security incidents, comply with legal obligations, identify and repair errors, or ensure another consumer’s ability to exercise their free speech rights or other rights provided by law.
- Do not sell my personal information. You can request us not to sell your personal data to third parties. “Sell” or “sale” means selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a consumer’s personal information by SteelCell to a third party for any valuable consideration.
- Do not share my personal information. You can request that we stop sharing your personal information. “Share” or “sharing” means sharing, disclosing, or otherwise making available your personal information to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising, but not necessarily a monetary benefit.
You can use this online request Form or contact us if you are interested in exercising any of the above rights.
Please note that SteelCell does not use or disclose your sensitive personal information for any purpose other than what is specified in section 7027, subsection (m) of the CCPA Regulations.
SteelCell uses certain companies to place tracking technologies like cookies and pixels on our websites, which allow those companies to receive information about your activity on the SteelCell website that is associated with your browser or device. Those companies may use that data to serve you more relevant contents and ads on our websites or others. Except for this kind of selling or sharing, SteelCell doesn’t otherwise sell or share your personal data.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. This generally means we will not deny you goods or services, charge different prices or rates, provide a different level of service or quality of goods, or suggest that you might receive a different price or level of quality for goods. Please know, if you ask us to delete your personal information, it may impact your experience with us, and you may not be able to participate in certain programs or services which require usage of your personal information to function.
We understand the importance of protecting the privacy of minors, especially in the online environment. Our websites are not designed for or intentionally targeted at minors under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If we become aware that we have received data from a person under the age of 18, we will
take reasonable steps to delete such data from our records.
Verifying your identity for requests to know/correct/delete
Because we want to avoid taking action regarding your personal information at the direction of someone other than you, only you or an “Authorized Agent” permitted to act on your behalf may submit a request. The CCPA also requires that we verify the identity of each person who makes a request.
To verify your identity, we will ask you to provide your:
First name*
Last name*
Email address*
State residency*
Phone number
*required field
We will seek to match any personal information you (or an Authorized Agent) provide when submitting your request to any personal information we already maintain. In some instances, we may ask you to provide additional information and/ or documentation to verify your identity. If that happens, we will reach out to you directly with our request. We will use the additional information you provided solely for the purpose identified in this section.
What if we can’t verify your identity?
If we can’t verify your identity, we will not be able to process your request to
know what personal information we have about you, to correct your inaccurate information, or to delete the personal information we have about you. If we are unable to verify your identity with a high degree of certainty, we will only be able to provide a report with category-level information and we may not be able to correct or delete some of your personal information.
How to submit a request using an authorized agent
An Authorized Agent is a person or business who has authorization to exercise California privacy rights on behalf of a consumer. Authorized agents use the same form or email described above to submit requests.
If you are submitting a request on behalf of another person, we require you to provide proof that the consumer gave you signed permission to submit the request. This can be a letter or other documentation signed by the consumer authorizing you to submit this request.
We may also require the consumer to verify their own identity directly with us, or directly confirm with us that they provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request.
