STATE SPECIFIC DISCLOSURESState of California“Controller” refers to the entity that has certain legal rights to determine the purposes for which personal information will be processed and the means by which that processing will happen. As used in this Privacy Policy, the term also includes entities considered to be “Businesses” under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“
CCPA”).
“Processor” refers to an entity that processes personal information solely on behalf of its customer, and not for its own business or legal compliance purposes. As used in this Privacy Policy, the term also includes entities considered to be “Service Providers” under the CCPA.
If you are a California resident, California law requires us to provide you with some additional information regarding how we collect, use, and share your “personal information” (as defined in the CCPA). This section applies only to personal information for which SLAIT acts as a Controller or “business”; it does not apply to personal information for which we act as a Processor or “service provider” on behalf of another entity.
Categories of information collectedThroughout this Privacy Policy, we discuss in detail the specific pieces of personal information we collect. Under the CCPA, we are also required to provide you with the “categories” of personal information we collect. The categories we collect are: identifiers (such as name, address, email address and other contact information); internet or other network or device activity, such as device and usage information; geolocation information; other information that identifies or can be reasonably associated with you, and inferences drawn from any of the above.

We will take steps to verify your identity before responding to your request, which may include requesting that you respond to an email that we send to you, or otherwise verifying your name, email address or other information that will help us to confirm your identity.
If you are an agent making a request on behalf of a consumer, you must verify that you are authorized to make that request, which may include requiring you to provide us with written proof that satisfies CCPA requirements, such as an appropriate letter signed by the consumer or a power of attorney. We also may require the consumer to verify their identity directly with us.
California Shine the Light DisclosureCalifornia Civil Code Section § 1798.83 permits users of our Platform that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purpose.
