This section provides additional details about the personal information We collect about consumers resident in California and Virginia and sets forth such consumers' rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA), and the Virginia residents under the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA). For avoidance of doubt, this section applies only to California and Virginia residents and their personal information We collect as a Business (as defined in the CCPA and VCDPA). This section does not address or apply to our handling of personal information that is exempt under the CCPA or VCDPA.
We have disclosed the categories of personal information listed in clause 1 above for a business purpose after May 1, 2023 and may disclose such personal information to service providers, contractors or other third parties who support our business.
While we do not "sell" personal information in the traditional sense (i.e., for money), we may be considered as "selling" and "sharing" personal information through our use of third-party analytics and advertising cookies. After May 1, 2023 we have sold/shared (as defined under the CCPA) the following categories of personal information to facilitate our advertising efforts:
Additionally, we do not and will not sell personal information if we have actual knowledge that a consumer is less than 18 years of age. We do not have actual knowledge that we "sell" or "share" information from individuals under 18 years of age. To exercise your right to opt-out of sale/sharing, please see below.
Right to opt out: You have the right to opt-out of "sales" and "sharing" of your personal information, as those terms are defined under the CCPA. To exercise your right to opt-out of the "selling" or "sharing" of Your personal information, please select Your preferences in the banner available on the bottom left corner of our Website. Please note that submitting an opt-out request will only opt You out of sharing data with third parties that may be considered "sales" under CCPA, but it will not opt-out of sharing data with Our service providers.
We may also disclose some of Your personal information described above for business purposes to the third parties listed in "Do We share Your information with Third Parties?" section above.
Occasionally, we may de-identify personal information and use the de-identified information for our internal purposes. We commit to maintaining and using this information in de-identified form and will not attempt to re-identify the information except to determine whether our de-identification process is effective.
You have certain rights, subject to certain limitations under applicable law, with respect to Your personal information, including:
California residents who provide Us certain personal information are entitled to request and obtain from us, free of charge, information about the personal information (if any) We have shared with third parties for their own direct marketing use. Such requests may be made once per calendar year for information about any relevant third-party sharing in the prior calendar year. You can submit a "Shine the Light" request by using the contact information under "Contact Us." Please include in Your request a current California address and Your attestation that You are a California resident.
Kindly note, some web browsers and mobile operating systems offer a "Do Not Track" setting that You can activate to signal Your preference not to have information about Your online browsing activities monitored and collected. Currently, Our Website, products and services do not recognize "Do Not Track" signals.
You have certain rights, subject to certain limitations under applicable law, with respect to Your personal data, including
The right to opt-out of the processing of the personal information for purposes of (i) targeted advertising, (ii) the sale of personal information, or (iii) profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning You.
California and Virginia consumers may make a request pursuant to their rights under the CCPA and VCDPA respectively by contacting us at privacy@qboss.ai or via mail to our postal address set forth above. We will verify Your request using the information associated with Your account, so please raise the request using the e-mail address associated with Your account. We will let You know if We need additional information to verify Your identity, such as Your Government identification. We shall not disclose further the personal information collected for verification of a consumer's request or retain it longer than it is necessary for the purpose of verification. If We are unable to verify Your identity after a good faith attempt, We may deny the request and, if so, We will explain the basis for the denial. Consumers may also designate an authorized agent to exercise these rights on their behalf. Authorized agents must provide us sufficient verification in their first communication with Us of their legal ability to submit a request on the consumer's behalf. Businesses acting as authorized agents must provide both (1) a certificate of good standing with its state of organization, and (2) a written authorization signed by the California resident. Individuals acting as authorized agents must provide either (1) a notarized power of attorney signed by the California resident, or (2) a written authorization signed by the California resident expressly authorizing the individual to act on their behalf. For security reasons, We reserve the right to reject requests from authorized agents who do not fulfill these requirements to protect the personal information of the individual in question.
