10. California Privacy Rights

This section is addressed to California residents only and provides more information about your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, or "CCPA" (California Civil Code Section 1798.100 et seq.), as amended.

Subject to certain exceptions, the CCPA grants California residents the right to:

  • Be notified about the collection, use, disclosure, sale, or sharing of their Personal Information.
  • Request access to, deletion of, or correction of their Personal Information.
  • Request to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of Personal Information (where such information is sold or shared).
  • Limit the use or disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information (as defined under the CCPA).
  • Not be discriminated against for exercising any of these rights.

Shmello does not sell your Personal Information. If you wish to opt out of Shmello using your Personal Information for cross-contextual targeted advertising ("sharing" under the CCPA), or to request access, correction, or deletion of your Personal Information, use the details in the Contact section below.

If you request deletion of your Personal Information, please note we may still need to retain certain information for recordkeeping purposes, to complete transactions you began prior to the request, to comply with applicable law, or for other purposes permitted by the CCPA. If you submit a request to exercise rights under the CCPA, we will ask you to provide information to verify your identity, based on your prior interactions with us and the sensitivity of the Personal Information at issue. If we deny your request, we will explain why.
