This CCPA Notice supplements the information contained in the Traffic
Armor
Privacy Policy, as well as other agreements you have with
Traffic Armor, such as the
Terms of Service. It applies to visitors, participants, customers and users of
Traffic Armor's Platform and Services who reside in the State of California. Any terms we use in this notice that aren't defined here will have the meanings we give them in those agreements.
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is a privacy law that provides a variety of privacy rights to California consumers. The law includes a provision that gives California residents the right to opt out of the
"sale" of their "personal information" through a prominent link that says
"Do Not Sell My Personal Information" on the "selling" party's homepage. The CCPA includes certain exceptions to the definition of
"sale", including transfers to "service providers".
This Notice provides California consumers with additional information about our collection and use of your Personal Information.

- Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
- Comply with a legal obligation.
- Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.
Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights
To
exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above,
please submit a verifiable consumer request to us.
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 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.
-
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.
Making a verifiable
consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. 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 endeavor to respond to a
verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If
we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and
extension period in writing.
We will deliver our written response by
mail or electronically.
Any disclosures we provide will only cover the
12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request's receipt. The
response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a
request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a
format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and
should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another
entity without hindrance.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond
to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or
manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we
will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate
before completing your request.
