    Your Rights and Choices

    The CCPA provides consumers (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 Pitchpilot disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past twelve (12) months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer 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 from which we collected personal information about you;
  • Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information;
  • The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information; and
  • The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).
  • Additionally, if we sold or shared your personal information, or if we disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, we will provide you with two separate lists disclosing:

    • a. The categories of personal information Pitchpilot sold to or shared with third parties in the preceding twelve (12) months; and
    • b. The categories of personal information Pitchpilot disclosed for a business purpose to third parties in the preceding twelve (12) months.

    Deletion Request Rights

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 in compliance with the CCPA if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to, among others: complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested or take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you; detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities; comply with a legal obligation; or make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

    Right to Correct Inaccurate Personal Data

    You may update or correct your personal information free of charge, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will correct (and direct our service providers to correct) your personal information in our records, unless an exception applies. We may ask that you identify yourself and the information you wish to change for security purposes.

    Exercising Access, Data Portability, Deletion and Rectification Rights

    To exercise the access, data portability, deletion and rectification rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by sending an email to [email protected].

    Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

    You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within 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 representative; and
  • 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. 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 shall confirm receipt of a customer’s request to know or delete within ten (10) business days. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request to access, delete or correct within forty-five (45) days of its receipt, and to a verifiable consumer request to opt-out of selling or sharing their personal information or to limit use of their sensitive personal information within fifteen (15) business days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 45 days) to respond to a verifiable consumer request to access, delete or correct, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing within the initial forty-five (45) days after receipt of the verifiable consumer request.

    If you have an account with us, our written response to your verifiable consumer request will be delivered through such account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. For data portability requests, we will select a format that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

    Any disclosures we provide pursuant to a verifiable consumer request will only cover the twelve (12) month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. If applicable, our response will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with your request.

    We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request, unless such request is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will inform you of the reasons of such decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

  • Deny you goods or services;
  • Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties;
