Red Ribbon will not collect additional categories of Personal Information or use the Personal Information we collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes without providing you notice.

Data Security

The security, integrity, and confidentiality of your personal information are extremely important to us.  Red Ribbon has implemented technical and administrative security measures that are designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, use, and modification.  Please be aware that, despite our best efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable.

Sharing Personal Information

Red Ribbon does not disclose, share, or sell your Personal Information to any third parties for any monetary or commercial benefit, and has not disclosed, shared, or sold your Personal Information in the past twelve (12) months, for any monetary or commercial benefit.

Red Ribbon only discloses your information for a business purpose to service providers we utilize to provide goods and services for you and for marketing and web hosting in order to provide you with targeted communications and services that are tailored to your preferences.

In addition, Red Ribbon may disclose your personal information to (1) comply with any court order, law, or legal process, including to respond to any government or regulatory request, and/or (2) if we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of Red Ribbon, users and visitors of our Website and mobile application, or others.

The Rights of California Consumers Under the CCPA

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA) provides California residents who are “consumers,” as defined in the CCPA, with specific rights regarding their Personal Information. This section of this Privacy Notice describes the rights of “consumers,” as defined in the CCPA, and explains how California consumers can exercise those rights (“CCPA Privacy Notice”).  Any terms defined in the CCPA have the same meaning when used in this CCPA Privacy Notice.  Consumers with disabilities may access this CCPA Privacy Notice in an alternative format by contacting Red Ribbon through any one of the methods set forth below.

Right to Request Disclosure About the Personal Information Collected About You

Consumers, as defined in the CCPA, have the right to request that Red Ribbon disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your Personal Information over the past twelve (12) months. Once we have received and verified your request, we will disclose to you:

  • The categories of Personal Information we collected about you.
  • Our business or commercial purpose for collecting that Personal Information.
  • The categories of third parties with whom we share that Personal Information, if any.
  • The specific pieces of Personal Information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).

However, Red Ribbon will not at any time in response to a request disclose a consumer’s financial account number or an account password, or security questions and answers.

Red Ribbon is not required to retain any Personal Information collected for a single, one-time transaction, if the information is not regularly retained by Red Ribbon, or re-identify any anonymous or de-identified information, in order to disclose that information to you.

Deletion Request Rights

Consumers, as defined in the CCPA, have the right to request that Red Ribbon delete any of your Personal Information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we have received and verified your identify and request, we will delete your Personal Information from our records, unless an exception applies.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

  1. Complete the transaction for which we collected the Personal Information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
  2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
  3. Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
  4. Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
  5. Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.).
  6. Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
  7. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
  8. Comply with a legal obligation.
  9. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Exercising Access and Deletion Rights

If you are a California resident and you wish to exercise your rights to access the information Red Ribbon has collected about you and/or request that Red Ribbon delete the information about you, you will need to submit a verifiable consumer request so that Red Ribbon is able to corroborate your identity and provide your information to you.

To exercise your rights described above, please submit a verifiable request by:

Only you, or someone legally authorized 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.

We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.  Any request to delete submitted through an online request will require you first to submit the request and, second, separately confirm that you want the information deleted.

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, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the twelve (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.

Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights

If you are 16 years of age or older, you have the right to direct us to not sell your Personal Information at any time (the “right to opt-out”). We do not sell the personal information of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years of age, unless we receive affirmative authorization (the “right to opt-in”) from either the consumer who is between 13 and 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a consumer younger than 13 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to personal information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time.

To exercise the right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) may submit a request to us by any of the methods set forth above.  Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve (12) months before asking you to reauthorize Personal Information sales. However, you may opt back in to Personal Information sales at any time.We use Google Analytics to understand how you use our Website.  This includes looking at where a visitor comes from and where they go when they leave our Website.  Google provides an opt-out for this tool here.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights after you have exercised those rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, in response to you exercising your rights, we will not:

  • Deny you goods or services.
  • Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services.
  • Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
  • Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your Personal Information’s value and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt in consent, which you may revoke at any time.

Our Website May Have Third Party Links

Our Website and mobile application may have links to third-party content. We do not control that content or the third party’s privacy practices. We encourage you to read their privacy policies to understand how they use your information.

When we make changes to this Privacy Notice, we will post the updated notice on our Website and update the notice’s effective date. Your continued use of our Website, our mobile application, and/or submitting information to us following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes.
