9. SPECIFIC DISCLOSURES AND NOTICES
We are required under Privacy Laws to provide you with certain disclosures and notices about how we collect, use, and share your “personal data,” as that term is defined under applicable laws (“Personal Data”).
9.1
Specific Notice to California Residents (“CCPA Notice”)
The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”) requires certain businesses to provide a CCPA Notice to explain how a company collects, uses, and shares Personal Data of California residents and the rights and choices offered regarding the handling of such data or information.
a)
Privacy Practices. We will not sell your Personal Data or “personal information” as defined under the CCPA.
b)
Privacy Rights. The CCPA gives individuals the right to request information about how the Company has collected, used, and shared your personal information and gives you the right to request a copy of any information that we may have stored or maintained about you. You may also ask us to delete any personal information that we may have received about you. The CCPA limits these rights, for example, by prohibiting us from providing certain sensitive information in response to access requests and limiting the circumstances under which we must comply with a request for deletion of personal information. We will respond to requests for information, access, and deletion only to the extent that we are able to associate, with a reasonable effort, the information we maintain with the identifying details you provide in your request. If we deny the request, we will communicate this decision to you. You are entitled to exercise the rights described above free from discrimination.
c)
Submitting a Request. You can submit a request for information, access, or deletion to legal@breederdao.io.
d)
Identity Verification. The CCPA requires us to collect and verify the identity of any individual submitting a request to access or delete personal information before providing a substantive response.
e)
Authorized Agents. California residents can designate an “authorized agent” to submit requests on their behalf. We will require the authorized agent to have a written authorization confirming their authority.
