Transmitting and storing personal information via the internet puts that information at risk of inadvertent disclosure to or unauthorized access by third parties, such as hackers and other cybercriminals who exploit security flaws or place viruses, worms or Trojans on computers or other devices used to transmit or store your personal information.  We will take commercially reasonable measures to reduce the risk that your personal information is disclosed to or accessed by third parties inadvertently or without authorization, but we cannot entirely eliminate that risk.  By providing us with your personal information, you accept the risk that your personal information may be disclosed to or accessed by third parties inadvertently or without authorization.  We are not responsible for the actions, conduct, errors or omissions of third parties who may access or attempt to access your personal information without our consent and authorization or for the outcomes or consequences that result from such unauthorized access.

To request that we disclose or delete information as described above, please email your request to kpudetti@babadass.com. Only you (or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf and who provides us with documentation that we determine reasonably evidences your authorization) may make a request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. Unless otherwise permitted by law or regulation, you may only request that we disclose or delete information as described above twice within any 12 month period.  

All requests submitted pursuant to this paragraph must include sufficient information to permit us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative of that person.  Your request must contain details sufficient for us to properly understand, evaluate and respond to the request. When we receive your request, we may contact you by phone or email to obtain additional information necessary to verify your identity or to enable us to respond to your request.  We cannot respond to your request if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request.  If you provide us with personal information in order to verify your identify for purposes of this paragraph, we will use that personal information only to verify your identity or authority to make the request.

We will respond to a verifiable consumer request pursuant to this paragraph within 45 days of receiving the request.  If we require more time (up to 90 days from receiving your request), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.  We will communicate with you about your request, and provide information in response to your request (if applicable) by phone and/or email unless you request that we communicate with you by mail.  Information provided in response to your request will reflect only the 12 month period preceding receipt of your request.  If applicable, our response may explain the reasons that we cannot comply with your request.   If our response includes your personal information, it will be provided in a format selected by us that is readily useable and that reasonably enables you to transmit that information to another entity without undue burden. There is no fee for us to process or respond to a verifiable consumer request submitted pursuant to this paragraph unless it is excessive, repetitive or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that a fee applies to your request, we will inform you of the basis for the fee and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

We do not sell the personal information of consumers who are California residents and who we believe (to the best of our knowledge based on the information in our possession) are less than 16 years old unless we receive affirmative consent from: (i) the consumer, if the consumer is at least 13 years old but not yet 16 years old; or (ii) the parent or guardian of the consumer, if the consumer is less than 13 years old.  Consumers between 13 and 16 years old who opt-in to personal information sharing may later opt-out at any time by contacting us at kpudetti@babadass.com.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising the rights available to you pursuant to the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018.

Any such benefit or incentive that we offer will reasonably relate to your personal information's value, and we will describe in writing the material terms associated with the sharing or disclosure that is required in order to receive a benefit or incentive.  If you participate in a program that provides a benefit or incentive in exchange for the sharing or disclosure of your personal information, you may opt-out of the program at any time by contact us at kpudetti@babadass.com
