PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

The provisions below up to the section entitled “Changes to Our Privacy Policy” relate solely to residents of the State of California (“consumers” or “you”). We included this section to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA) and any terms defined in the CCPA have the same meaning when used in this section.

Information We Collect

Our Site collects information that identifies, relates to, describes, references, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or device (“personal information”). In particular, our Site has collected the following categories of personal information from its consumers within the last twelve (12) months:

  • Category A (Identifiers): including, your real name, postal address, unique personal identifier, online identifier, photos or images of you, Internet Protocol address, email address, account name, or other similar identifiers.
  • Category B (Personal information categories under the California Customer Records Statute): including, name, address, telephone number, bank account number, credit card number, debit card number, or any other financial information.
  • Category C (Internet or other similar network activity): including, your browsing history, search history, information on a consumer’s interaction with a website, application, or advertisement.
  • Category D (Commercial information): including, records of personal property, products or services purchased, obtained, or considered, or other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies.

For purposes of this section, personal information does not include:

  • Publicly available information from government records.
  • Deidentified or aggregated consumer information.
  • Other information excluded from the CCPA’s scope as expressly set forth in the statute.

Note that information Company obtains from a consumer acting on behalf of a company and whose communications with Company occur solely within the context of Company conducting due diligence regarding, or providing or receiving a product or service to or from another company, are generally exempt from much of CCPA.

Company obtains personal information listed above from the following categories of sources:

  • For all of the above categories collected, we collect this information directly from you.
  • For Categories A (identifiers) and C (internet or other similar network activity information), we collect this information indirectly from you, such as when you navigate our site or interact with its features as set forth elsewhere in our privacy policy.

Use and Disclosure of Non-Exempt Personal Information

We use and disclose all of the above categories of personal information only as expressly set forth above in in this Privacy Policy or with your consent. For clarity, we use identifiers and internet or similar network activity information for:

  • Auditing related to a current interaction with you and concurrent transactions, including, but not limited to, counting ad impressions to unique visitors, verifying positioning and quality of ad impressions, and auditing compliance with applicable law.
  • Short-term, transient use, provided your personal information is not disclosed to a third party and is not used to build a profile about you or otherwise alter your experience outside the current interaction, including, but not limited to, the contextual customization of ads shown as part of the same interaction.
  • Testing, research, analysis, and product development and demonstration, including to develop and improve our Site, products, and services.

For all of the above categories of personal information collected, we will also use your personal information as described to you when collecting it or as otherwise permitted by the CCPA. Company will not collect additional categories of personal information or use the personal information we collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes without providing you notice.

When we disclose personal information for a business purpose, we generally enter into a contract that describes the purpose and requires the recipient to both keep that personal information confidential and not use it for any purpose except performing the contract. In the preceding twelve (12) months, we have disclosed all of the above categories of personal information collected for a business purpose to third party vendors who provide marketing, payment processing, and other services to us.

DAM Coolers, LLC may share some information obtained through cookies and other tracking technologies with third parties that provide marketing or analytical services to DAM Coolers, LLC. A cookie is a small piece of data sent from a website and stored on the user’s computer by the user’s web browser while the user is browsing. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you direct your browser to our Services. If you do not want to share cookie or other tracking technology information with DAM Coolers, LLC, you can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. You can find more information about cookies at http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

Your Rights and Choices for Non-Exempt Information

The CCPA provides California residents with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.

Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights

You have the right to request that DAM Coolers, LLC disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your CCPA covered personal information over the past twelve (12) months. Once we receive and verify your request (see Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights), we will disclose to you:

  • The categories of personal information we collected about you.
  • The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you.
  • Our business or commercial purpose for collecting that personal information.
  • The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.
  • The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).
  • If we disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, a list identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained.

Deletion Request Rights

You have the right to request that DAM Coolers, LLC delete any of your CCPA covered personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:

  • Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
  • Detect bugs or errors in our Services, detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
  • Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.).
  • Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
  • Comply with a legal obligation.
  • Make other internal and lawful uses of that information are permitted by law or that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by at info@damcoolers.com.

Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf (“an Authorized Agent”), may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. Please note that DAM Coolers, LLC is not obligated to provide information to a consumer in response to a request more than twice in a twelve (12) month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an Authorized Agent. Before completing your request to exercise the below, we will verify that the request came from you based on information we have for you in our records, or though some other method in compliance with the CCPA.

Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

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. With few exceptions, we will only review and fulfill a request from your Authorized Agent if (a) you grant the Authorized Agent written permission to make a request on your behalf, (b) you or the Authorized Agent provides us notice of that written permission, and (c) we are able to verify your and the Authorized Agent’s identity in connection with that notice and the request.

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

Response Timing and Format

We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the twelve (12) month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

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.

Non-Discrimination

You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for exercising any of your rights under the CCPA. However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your personal information’s value and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time. At the time of offering any financial incentive, we will provide a summary of the incentive and further information relating to the material terms, opt-in methods, and how you may withdraw your consent or opt-out of such incentive. We also will provide further explanation as to how the incentive complies with CCPA.
