submitting your request here or by sending an email to
[email protected], indicating “CA Privacy Rights” in

applicable law, we may charge a reasonable fee to comply with
your request.

requesting certain information from you — when you request to
exercise your California privacy rights. For instance, you may
need to provide your name and email address. To request that we
provide you with the specific pieces of personal information we

that we have collected from you, we will delete, deidentify, or
aggregate, as appropriate, any information about you that is not
necessary for the purposes indicated above. Certain information

requests to exercise your rights under CCPA as described above.
We will take steps both to verify the identity of the person
seeking to exercise their rights as listed above, and to verify
that your agent has been authorized to make a request on your
behalf through providing us with a signed written authorization
or a copy of a power of attorney.
