Notice to California Users

California Privacy Rights

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), California residents have a right to request that we disclose the categories of personal information we have collected, used, disclosed, and sold. We call this a “categories” request. California residents also have the right to request that we disclose the specific pieces of personal information that we have collected about you, which we call a “specific pieces” request. These are referred to collectively as “Right to Know” requests under the CCPA.

California residents also have a right to delete the personal information we’ve collected about them. The “Right to Delete” is subject to several legal exceptions, such as when we are required by another state or federal law to retain your information.

The CCPA provides California residents with the right to opt-out of the sale of their personal information. The CCPA defines a "sale" as disclosing or making available to a third-party personal information in exchange for monetary or other valuable consideration.

While we do not sell personal information for monetary value, we may disclose personal information to third parties, as described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy, and that disclosure may be considered a “sale” of personal information under the CCPA. To direct us to stop the sale of your personal information if you are a California resident, click to email us at privacy@broadcastmed.com.

We do not sell personal information of minors who we know are under 16 years of age.

California residents have a right not to receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of the privacy rights conferred by the CCPA.

To protect against fraud, identity theft, and the unauthorized disclosure or deletion of personal information, we require that California residents submitting requests under the CCPA first verify their identity. This may include a combination of SMS (text message) verification, email verification, and one or more questions regarding the California resident’s particular interaction or transaction with our services. If the California resident fails to verify their request via these methods, or the information provided by the California residents otherwise does not match our existing records, we will deny the request.

Authorized Agent

A California residents may designate an authorized agent to make a request under the CCPA on the California resident’s behalf. If a California resident wishes to authorize another person to act as an authorized agent on the California resident’s behalf, the California residents must provide the authorized agent permission to do so. To help prevent fraudulent requests, we reserve the right to deny a request from an agent that does not submit proof that he or she has been authorized by the California resident to act on the
resident’s behalf.

As proof that the agent has been duly authorized by the California residents to submit a CCPA request, the agent will be required to upload either (1) power of attorney signed by the California resident, or (2) other signed permission from the California resident. Pursuant to California Probate Code Sections 4300 to 4310, if an agent provides power of attorney signed by the California resident (“principal”) that purports to give the agent authorization to submit the request on the principal’s behalf, we may require that the agent provide information reasonably necessary or appropriate to identify the agent and principal and to facilitate the request. This includes, but is not limited to, identification of the agent and principal and the current and permanent residence addresses of the principal. If the agent provides some other signed permission from the California resident, we may require that the resident (1) verify their identity directly with us through a combination of SMS (text message) verification, email verification, and one or more questions regarding the resident’s particular interaction or transaction with our dealership and (2) confirm that he or she provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request.

The California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA):

1. Right to Access Information

You have certain choices regarding our use and disclosure of your personal information, as described below.

The categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you

• The categories of sources from which we collected the personal information
• The business or commercial purpose for which we collected or sold the personal information
• The categories of third parties with whom we shared the personal information

How to Submit a Request

2. Right to Correct Inaccurate Information

You have the right to access the information and if the information provided is inaccurate, you can request the correction of that information, and then we are required to use commercially reasonable efforts to correct that information if we receive a verifiable consumer request.

3. Right to have Personal Information Collected Subject to Data Minimization and Purpose Limitations

You can require us to minimize use, retention and sharing of your personal information to what is reasonably necessary and proportionate to achieve the purposes for which the information was collected.

4. Right to Receive Notice if Planning on Using Sensitive Personal Information and Ask us to Stop

• We are required to give you special notice if we plan to collect or use any sensitive personal information, and you can ask us to stop selling, sharing and using it. This type of information includes:
• information revealing a social security, driver’s license, state ID card or passport number

5. Right to Opt-Out of Sharing Information with Third Parties

6. Right to Sue Businesses When They Expose Usernames and Passwords

The California Consumer Privacy Act gave people the right to sue a business directly when it exposes their personal information through a data breach resulting from a failure to use reasonable security measures. The CPRA expands this to cover data breaches where the personal information that was exposed includes a username and password.

7. Verifying Requests

To help protect your privacy and maintain security, we will take steps to verify your identity before granting you access to your personal information or complying with your request. If you have an account with us, we may verify your identity by requiring you to sign in to your account. If you request access to or deletion of your personal information and do not sign in to an account with us, we require you to provide the following information: name, email address, phone number, and postal address. In addition, if you do not have an account and you ask us to provide you with specific pieces of personal information, we reserve the option to require you to sign a declaration under penalty of perjury that you are the consumer whose personal information is the subject of the request. If you designate an authorized agent to make an access, deletion or opt-out of sale request on your behalf (1) we may require you to provide the authorized agent written permission to do so, and (2) for access and deletion requests, we may require you to verify your own identity directly with us (as described above).
