California Privacy Rights

Each resident of California, thanks to section 1798.83 of the California Civil Code (the "Shine the Light" statute), may request, once per calendar year, from companies conducting business in California a list of all third parties to whom the company has disclosed certain personally identifiable information, as defined under California law, about that resident for third-party direct-marketing purposes during the preceding year.

In your request, please attest to your being a California resident and provide a current California address for our response.

Section 22581 of the California Business and Professions Code (the California Consumer Privacy Act or CCPA) permits California residents to request the deletion of personal information that companies have collected about them, and the removal of content that they have publicly posted. Certain exceptions may apply, however. Please note that such a request will not ensure a complete removal of the content and that in some cases the statute may not require or allow removal even if requested.

The CCPA was amended effective January 1, 2023, by the California Privacy Rights Act which extends the protections of the CCPA to employees, contractors, and business contacts.

California law treats disclosures of personal information in exchange for valuable consideration as "sales". California law gives consumers who reside in California, plus employees, contractors, and business contacts, the right to opt out of such sales, and to opt out of financial incentive programs that we might offer.

The California Consumer Privacy Act provides that we may not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under that statute. We may, however, provide a different level of service or charge a different amount if the difference is reasonably related to the value of your personal information.

Your Rights Under the California Consumer Privacy Act

To the extent that the California Consumer Privacy Act applies to you, you may have the following rights free of charge:

To know the categories of personal information to be collected and the purposes for which that information will be used;
To know the categories of personal information that were actually collected in the prior 12 months and sold or disclosed in the prior 12 months;
To require us to respond to verifiable requests with disclosures about the personal information that we collect, sell or disclose;
To access copies of specific pieces of personal information that we have collected about you
To ask us and any third-party providers to delete personal information that we have collected about you; and
To opt out of the sale of your personal information to third parties if you have permitted us to do so.

Californians with questions about our handling of their personal information should email us at contact@ty.com and put "Your California Privacy Rights" in the subject field of the email, or include that phrase in your letter if you write to us. Be sure to include your name, street address, city, state and zip code.
