INFOSEARCH AND CCPA, as amended

1. California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended (CCPA) Activities

The CCPA applies only to California residents. If you are a California resident, this section may apply to you. If you are not a California resident, this section does not apply to you.

In this section, “business,” “business purpose,” “collects,” “consumer,” “commercial purpose,” “personal information,” “sale” or “selling,” and “service provider” refer to the definitions in the CCPA.

InfoSearch has two areas of activity that are related to the CCPA:

• First, InfoSearch collects personal information from consumers in the course of providing InfoSearch products and services to its clients. In this activity, InfoSearch acts strictly as a “service provider” to our clients under the CCPA, and our clients are “businesses”. In the InfoSearch products and services, InfoSearch collects personal information based on our clients’ instructions. For example, our clients specify what consumers we should contact to provide feedback, when we should contact them, how we should contact them (e.g., email or SMS), how often we should send them reminders to provide a response, and what questions are asked. InfoSearch’s clients also decide how to use or respond to feedback that is collected.

• Second, InfoSearch collects personal information from consumers in the course of its marketing and recruiting efforts. This includes personal information we collect voluntarily from forms on our website and event registrations, information we collect automatically when you visit our website, apply for a position, and information we obtain from third party sources. In this activity, InfoSearch acts as a “business” under the CCPA.

1. Handling Personal Information Under CCPA

Regardless of which area of activity applies to you, InfoSearch does not sell your personal information.

To be clear, we have not sold, rented, released, disclosed, disseminated, made available, transferred, or otherwise communicated a consumer’s personal information to another business or third party for monetary or other valuable consideration. If that changes, we will update this Privacy Policy.

Further, when we provide the InfoSearch products and services to our clients, we do not:

• process personal information for any commercial purpose other than providing our clients the products and services they have purchased; or
  
• retain, use or disclose personal information outside of the scope of the agreements we have with our clients.

InfoSearch’s use of your personal information is set forth in Section 3 of this Privacy Policy.

1. Personal Information Collected and Disclosures for Business Purposes

The CCPA requires that we disclose the categories of personal information we collect about consumers, and the categories of personal information we disclose for a business purpose.

The chart below details where you find information about the categories of personal information that InfoSearch has collected in the previous 12 months for each activity related to the CCPA.

The chart below details where you can find information about the categories of information we disclose for a business purpose in the previous 12 months.

1. Consumer Rights Under the CCPA

Your rights under the CCPA include the right to request a copy of (1) the categories and/or specific pieces of personal information they have collected about you, (2) the categories of sources for that personal information, (3) the purposes for which the business uses that information, (4) the categories of third parties with whom the business discloses the information, and (5) the categories of information that the business sells or discloses to third parties. You can make a request to know up to twice a year, free of charge.  InfoSearch will provide this information to you free of charge for the 12-month period preceding your request. We will generally refer to these as “access requests”.

In addition, with some exceptions, you can request deletion of the personal information that is collected about you and tell our service providers to do the same. We will generally refer to these as “deletion requests”.

You may request that InfoSearch stop selling or sharing your personal information (“opt-out”), including via a user-enabled global privacy control. InfoSearch cannot sell or share your personal information after it receives your opt-out request unless you later authorize them to do so again.

You may ask InfoSearch to correct inaccurate information it has about you.

You may ask InfoSearch to only use your sensitive personal information (as that term is defined in the CCPA) for limited services, such as providing you with the services you requested.

You have a right not to receive discriminatory treatment for exercising your CCPA rights.

With respect to personal data of consumers collected in InfoSearch products and services, InfoSearch’s clients are responsible for fulfilling access and deletion requests. InfoSearch supports these requests by offering our clients product features, processes and assistance in exporting personal information about individuals. These product features and processes complete the data deletion within 30 days of receiving the request from our client.

With respect to the personal data of consumers collected in InfoSearch’s marketing and recruiting efforts, we are responsible for fulfilling access and deletion requests.

The chart below details how you can exercise your rights under the CCPA.
