Unless otherwise defined in this California Privacy Notice (this “Notice”), all terms defined in the Privacy Policy and all other terms defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA”) retain the same meaning when used in this Notice.

This Notice supplements the information contained in our Privacy Policy and applies solely to individual residents of the State of California (“consumers” or “you”).

This Notice describes how we collect, use, disclose, share, sell and otherwise process personal information of individual residents of the State of California, either online or offline, within the scope of the CCPA. 

PERSONAL INFORMATION DISCLOSURES

When we use the term “personal information” in this Notice, we mean information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household in accordance with the CCPA.

For the purposes of this Notice, personal information does not include:

  • Deidentified, aggregated or anonymized information that is maintained in a form that is not capable of being associated with or linked to you or a particular household.
  • Publicly available information from government records.

Collection, Disclosure, and Sale or Share of Personal Information

As described further in our Privacy Policy, we share personal information with our service providers and contractors that help us operate our Platform and business. We may also share personal information with a variety of third parties, including for marketing purposes; if we are subject to certain corporate transactions or reorganizations; with third parties to comply with law or to protect our rights or the rights and safety of others; or for purposes otherwise disclosed or for which you have consented.

For purposes of this Notice, when we use the term “third party” we mean entities that are not service providers or contractors providing services on behalf of KOAPRO and that are not entities with whom you interact with directly.

We do not use or disclose Sensitive Personal Information outside of the permitted purposes set forth under Section 7027(m) of the California Consumer Privacy Act Regulations.

HOW TO EXERCISE YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

To Exercise Your Rights to Know, Access/Data Portability, Correct, Delete and/or “Shine the Light”

Please submit a request by submitting this form or emailing us at support@koapro.com

We may need to verify your identity and confirm you are a resident of the State of California before processing most requests, which may require us to obtain additional personal information from you. In order to verify your identity, we will generally require either the successful authentication of your account, or the matching of sufficient information you provide us to the information we maintain about you in our systems. Please provide your name, email address and mailing address in the original request, as well as an explanation of the rights you wish to exercise. We will only use the personal information provided in connection with a Privacy Rights Request to review and comply with the request. If you do not provide this information, we may not be able to verify or complete your request in all circumstances.

If you wish to submit a verifiable consumer request on behalf of another individual, we will also need sufficient information to verify that the individual is the person about whom we collected personal information and that you are authorized to submit the request on their behalf. Please see the “Authorized Agents” section below for more information.

In certain circumstances, we may decline a request to exercise the rights described above, in accordance with applicable law.

To Exercise Your Right to Opt Out of Personal Information Sales or Sharing for Cross-Contextual Advertising

You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your Right to Opt Out of Personal Information Sales or Sharing for Cross-Contextual Advertising. However, we may ask you to provide additional personal information (including your name, email address and mailing address) so that we can properly identify you in our dataset to facilitate the opt-out request.

We do not sell or share personal information of consumers we know to be less than 16 years of age, unless we receive affirmative opt-in consent from the child who is between 13 and 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a child less than 13 years of age. The parent or the child who has opted into personal information sales or sharing may opt out of future sales at any time. If a parent, guardian or child has provided affirmative authorization, they may opt out of future processing at any time by contacting us at support@koapro.com

FINANCIAL INCENTIVES

From time to time, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by law (such as offers, coupons, samples, loyalty programs and sweepstakes or contest rewards) in exchange for the collection, retention, use or share, or sale of certain personal information about you. Each financial incentive related to the collection and use of personal information is based upon our reasonable, good-faith determination of the estimated value of such information to our business. When necessary, we will provide information about the specific terms of the financial incentive, such as the type of personal information required to be disclosed, retained or sold in exchange for the benefit you may receive, and instructions on how to opt in or opt out, on the webpage or form where the financial incentive is made available.
