  • Right to Know. You have the right to request that Company disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your Personal Information over the past 12 months (a “Right to Know” Request). This includes: (a) the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you; (b) the categories of sources from which that Personal Information came from; (c) our purposes for collecting this Personal Information; (d) the categories of third parties with whom we have shared your Personal Information; and (e) if we have “sold” or “shared” or disclosed your Personal Information, a list of categories of third parties to whom we “sold” or “shared” your Personal Information, and a separate list of the categories of third parties to whom we disclosed your Personal Information to.

If it is not reasonably clear from your request, we will only process your request as a Right to Know Request. You may make a Right to Know or a Data Portability Request a total of two (2) times within a 12-month period at no charge.

  • Access to Specific Pieces of Information (Data Portability). You also have the right to request that Company provide you with a copy of the specific pieces of Personal Information that we have collected about you, including any Personal Information that we have created or otherwise received from a third-party about you (a “Data Portability” Request).

If we are unable to disclose certain pieces of your Personal Information, we will describe generally the types of personal information that we were unable to disclose and provide you a description of the reason we are unable to disclose it. You may make a Right to Know or a Data Portability Request a total of two (2) times within a 12-month period at no charge.

  • Correction. You have the right to request that we correct any incorrect Personal Information about you to ensure that it is complete, accurate, and as current as possible. You may request that we correct the Personal Information we have about you as described below under Exercising Your CPRA Privacy Rights. In some cases, we may require you to provide reasonable documentation to show that the Personal Information we have about you is incorrect and what the correct Personal Information may be. We may also not be able to accommodate your request if we believe it would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect or if the Personal Information is subject to another exception under the CPRA.

  • Deletion. You have the right to request that Company delete any of your Personal Information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your California Resident Request (see Exercising Your CPRA Privacy Rights), we will delete your Personal Information from our records, unless an exception applies pursuant to the CPRA. Some exceptions to your right to delete include, but are not limited to, if we are required to retain your Personal Information to complete the transaction or provide you the goods and services for which we collected the Personal Information or otherwise perform under our contract with you, to detect security incidents or protect against other malicious activities, and to comply with legal obligations. We may also retain your Personal Information for other internal and lawful uses that are compatible with the context in which we collected it.

Exercising Your CPRA Privacy Rights

To exercise the rights described above, please submit a request (a “California Resident Request”) to us by either:

Submitting a request online at www.samuel.com/opt-out; or

Emailing us at marketing@samuel.com.

You may also use an authorized agent to exercise your rights on your behalf. If you wish to use an authorized agent, we require that your authorized agent provides written proof to us that he or she is authorized to act on your behalf, and we may also require your authorized agent to verify his or her own identity. To submit a request to Company on behalf of another person as an Authorized Agent, please utilize the methods identified above. If you fail to make your California Resident Request in accordance with the ways described above, we may either treat your request as if it had been submitted with our methods described above or provide you with information on how to submit the request or remedy any deficiencies with your request.

Only you, or your Authorized Agent that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a California Resident Request related to your Personal Information. To designate an Authorized Agent, see Authorized Agents below.

All Privacy Requests must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an Authorized Agent of such a person.

  • 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 which Personal Information relates to you or the individual for whom you are making the request as their Authorized Agent.

Making a California Resident Request does not require you to create an account with us.

We will only use Personal Information provided in a California Resident Request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
