As permitted by the CCPA, any request a California Resident submits to us is subject to an identification and verification process, which will depend on the nature of the request and the Personal Information requested and will be further explained in response to a request. We will not fulfill a CCPA request unless the requestor has provided sufficient information for us to be satisfied that the requestor is a California Resident about whom we have collected applicable Personal Information. Please promptly respond to any follow-up inquiries so that we may verify your identity. If you request that we provide you with specific categories of Personal Information or that we delete sensitive Personal Information, we may apply heightened verification standards. An authorized agent who meets the agency requirements of the CCPA may submit requests on behalf of a California Resident, which will also be subject to a verification process.
Furthermore, please note that Personal Information is retained by us for as long as is necessary in connection with the purposes set out in this Supplemental Notice, the Privacy Policy and/or as permitted or required to by law, so we may not be able to fully respond to what might be relevant going back twelve months prior to the request.
Please note that some Personal Information we maintain is not sufficiently associated with a particular individual for us to be able to verify that it is a particular individual's Personal Information. Accordingly, we will not include such information in response to a Personal Information request. If we cannot comply with a request for any reason, we will explain the reasons in our response. We will use Personal Information provided in your request only to verify your identity or authority to make the request and as necessary to track and document requests and responses, unless you also provided the Personal Information to us for another purpose.
We will make commercially reasonable efforts to identify relevant Personal Information that we collect, use, store, disclose, or otherwise process and to respond to California Resident's requests. In some cases, particularly with voluminous and/or what appear to be requests for irrelevant data, we may provide the requestor with a summary of the Personal Information held and give them the opportunity to elect whether they want us to provide the entire data set. Alternatively, we may direct the requestor on how to access and copy responsive Personal Information independently. We may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act upon a request if the request is excessive, repetitive, unfounded, or overly burdensome. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, or if we decline to comply with the request, we will provide notice explaining why we made that decision. In the case of a fee, we will provide a cost estimate and the opportunity to accept such fees before charging for a request.
Please also note we are not obligated to comply with a request to the extent that doing so would infringe on our, or any other person's or party's rights, or conflict with applicable law.
Any requests that can be processed by us will be done so in no more than 45 days from the date we receive your request, unless we notify you that an extension is required. In case of an extended completion period, we will process the request in no more than 90 days from the date of the original request. California Residents are limited to two requests to know/access their personal information within a 12-month period.
2. Right to Request Deletion of Personal Information
California Residents have a right to request the deletion of Personal Information that we collect or maintain about them. To submit a request to delete personal information, please submit an email request to us at info@tierralawfirm.com and include "California Request to Delete" in the subject line. Please specify the personal information about you that you would like to have deleted, which can be all of your personal information as required by the CCPA.
Under the CCPA, we may decline to delete your Personal Information under certain circumstances, for example, we are not required to delete personal information if it is necessary for us to maintain the consumer's personal information in order to: (1) complete the transaction for which the personal information was collected, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or recall, provide a good or service requested by the consumer, or perform a contract between the business and the consumer; (2) detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity; (3) debug or repair errors that impair functionality; (4) exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise that consumer's right of free speech, or exercise another right provided for by law;(5) 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 deletion of the information is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the research, if the consumer has provided informed consent; (6) enable solely for internal uses that are reasonably aligned with the expectations of the consumer; (7) comply with a legal obligation; or (8) otherwise use your Personal Information, in a lawful manner that is compatible with the context in which the consumer provided the information.
Please note that under California law we are not required to delete Personal Information about an individual that was not collected directly from that individual.
3. Non-Discrimination
