Furthermore, California residents have the following rights with respect to Personal Data we may have collected about them:

    You may submit a request to know to the address or email address indicated in Section 9. The delivery of our response may take place electronically or by mail. We are not required to respond to requests to know more than twice in a 12-month period

    (ii) Requests to Delete or Correct
    You have the right to request that we delete any Personal Data about you that we have collected, or correct Personal Data that we have about you that is inaccurate. Upon receiving a verified request to delete personal data, we will do so unless otherwise authorized by law. You may submit a request to delete Personal Data via this form.

    (iii) Authorized Agents
    You may designate an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf. You must provide an authorized agent written permission to submit a request on your behalf, and we may require that you verify your identity directly with us. Alternatively, an authorized agent that has been provided power of attorney pursuant to Probate Code sections 4000-4465 may submit a request on your behalf.

    (iv) Methods for Submitting Consumer Requests and Our Response to Requests
    You may submit a request to know and requests to delete Personal Data about you via: email at support@kindredrealtors.com

    Upon receipt of a request, we may ask you for additional information to verify your identity. Any additional information you provide will be used only to verify your identity and not for any other purpose.

    We will acknowledge the receipt of your request within ten (10) business days of receipt. Subject to our ability to verify your identity, we will respond to your request within 45 calendar days of receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

    Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 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.

    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.

    (v) The Right to Non-Discrimination
    You have the right not to be discriminated against for the exercise of your California privacy rights described above.

    (vi) Selling and Sharing of Personal Data
    We may use your Personal Data for the purposes described in Section 2 of this Policy, and may share your Personal Data as further described in Section 3 of this Policy.

    California law places certain obligations on businesses that “sell” Personal Data to third parties or “share” Personal Data with third parties for “cross-context behavioral advertising” as those terms are defined under the CCPA. We do not “sell” or “share” the Personal Data covered by this Policy and have not done so in the twelve months prior to the effective date of this Policy. Consequently, we do not have a Do Not Sell My Info-functionality on the Site.

Sensitive personal information may include, for example, government-issued identification number, information relating to a person’s race or ethnic origin, political opinions or religious beliefs, physical or mental health or condition, sexual orientation, or trade union membership. It may include information about an individual’s criminal offenses or convictions, as well as any other information deemed sensitive under applicable data protection laws.

    The CCPA provides consumers with the “right to limit” the use of their sensitive personal information to certain business purposes. We do not request sensitive personal information in connection with the use of its Sites.

    (viii) How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals
    We do not track Site users over time and across third party websites to provide targeted advertising. Accordingly, we do not currently respond or take any action with respect to web browser “do not track” signals or other mechanisms that provide consumers the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of Personal Data about an individual consumer’s online activities over time and across third-party web sites or online services.
