    The California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) requires that we provide you with the following information about sales and “sharing” and disclosures of your personal information to third parties for “business purposes”, as those terms are defined in the CPRA:

     

     

    No sales or sharing

    Company does not sell or “share” (disclose for cross-context behavioral advertising) your personal information in connection with the HR relationship. In addition, we have no actual knowledge that we sell or share the personal information of individuals of any age in connection with the HR relationship, including the personal information of children under 16.

    Subject to applicable law, Applicants have the following rights:

     

    Inferring characteristics: Company does not collect or process sensitive personal information or characteristics of protected classifications for the purpose of inferring characteristics about California residents. 

     

    Note on Deidentified Information

    At times, Company converts personal information into deidentified information using reasonable measures to ensure that the deidentified information cannot be associated with the individual (“Deidentified Information”).  Company maintains Deidentified Information in a deidentified form and does not attempt to re-identify it, except that Company may attempt to reidentify the information solely for the purpose of determining whether its deidentification processes ensure that the information cannot be associated with the individual.  

     

    C. How to Exercise Your Rights

     

    Company will respond to requests to know, delete, and correct in accordance with applicable law if it can verify the identity of the individual submitting the request.  You can exercise these rights in the following ways:

     

    D. How We Will Verify Your Request:

     

    If you submit a request through an adequately secure password-protected account that you created before the date of your request, we will use the authentication mechanisms in the account to verify your identity.  Otherwise, we match personal information that you provide us against personal information we maintain in our files.  The more risk entailed by the request (e.g., a request for specific pieces of personal information), the more items of personal information we may request to verify you.  If we cannot verify your identity to a sufficient level of certainty to respond securely to your request, we will let you know promptly and explain why we cannot verify your identity.

     

    E. Authorized Agents

     

    If an authorized agent submits a request on your behalf, the authorized agent must submit with the request a document signed by you that authorizes the authorized agent to submit the request on your behalf.  In addition, we may ask you or your authorized agent to follow the applicable process described above for verifying your identity. You can obtain our “Authorized Agent Designation” form by contacting us at hr@mx.com.  In the alternative, you can provide a power of attorney compliant with the California Probate Code.

     

    F. Company’s Non-Discrimination and Non-Retaliation Policy 

     

    Company will not unlawfully discriminate or retaliate against you for exercising your privacy rights under the California Privacy Rights Act.
