Your request must specify the right you intend to exercise.

If you are a Colorado resident, you may exercise your right to confirm whether we are processing your Personal Information and to access your Personal Information at no charge to you up to 2 times per calendar year.  If you make a request more frequently than 2 times per calendar year, we may charge you a reasonable fee to cover the administrative costs of complying with your request or we may decline to act on the request.  If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

If you are a California or Texas resident, you may only submit a request to know twice within a 12-month period.  For California and Texas residents, we do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

 

If you are a Utah resident, the Company may charge a fee for information in response for a request if you have made a previous request within the last 12 months.  The Company mas also charge a reasonable fee to compensate it for the administrative cost of responding to a request or refuse to act on a request if:    (a) the request is excessive, repetitive, technically infeasible, or manifestly unfounded; (b) the Company reasonably believes the primary purpose in submitting the request was something other than exercising a right; or (c) the request, individually or as part of an organized effort, harasses, disrupts, or imposes undue burden on the resources of the Company’s business.

 

If you are a resident of California, Colorado, Texas, or Utah your request to know or delete must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative, which may include:

  • submitting the request through our password-protected account.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you.

You do not need to create an account with us to submit a request to know or delete. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to Personal Information associated with that specific account.

We will only use Personal Information provided in the request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make it.
