Categories of third-parties with whom we disclose Personal Information for a business purpose; and
Specific pieces of Personal Information we collected about you in a portable format (also called a data portability request).

In addition, to the extent a business sells or shares Personal Information, a California Consumer shall have the right to request the business to identify, during the past 12 months:

Categories of Personal Information that the business sold or shared, and the categories of third party recipients; and
Categories of Personal Information disclosed for a business purpose, and the category of recipients.

2. Right to Deletion

Subject to several exceptions, you have the right to request that we delete any of your Personal Information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions and as permitted under the California Privacy Laws. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your Personal Information from our records, unless an exception applies.

3. Right to Opt-Out of “Sale” and Certain “Sharing” Practices

A California Consumer has the right to opt-out of certain data sharing practices with third parties, who may use its Personal Information solely for their own purposes. The right to opt-out is limited to Personal Information sold to or shared with these third parties. “Sell” in this case does not mean providing data in exchange for money – we don’t do that (and we do not knowingly sell or share Personal Information of consumers under the age of 16). “Sell” or “sharing” instead means the disclosure or release of Personal Information, including technical device data that does not identify you directly but can be attributed back to identify you, when a third party might use that data for its own purposes, such as for personalized advertising or cross-context behavioral advertising, whether or not for monetary or other valuable consideration. A California Consumer may opt out by using the “Contact Information” as described below or via our cookie banner.

4. Right to Correct.

You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate Personal Information that we have collected about you.

5. Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information.

In certain circumstances, you have a right to limit the use and disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information. Our use of Sensitive Personal Information is reasonably necessary to perform Services or provide goods reasonably expected by an average consumer and not for those purposes for which you may exercise a right to limit the use or disclosure under California Privacy Laws. While this consumer right is not applicable to how we collect or use your Sensitive Personal Information, we provide this information as this is a core part of your rights as a California Consumer.

6. Right to Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights under the California Privacy Laws. In the context of HR operations, this means that you, as an employee, applicant, or independent contractor, will not be retaliated against for exercising your rights under the California Privacy Laws. Unless permitted by California Privacy Laws, we will not:

Deny you goods or services;
Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties;
Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services; or
Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

2. Other California Privacy Rights. California's “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits California residents who are users of our Services to request certain information regarding our disclosure of Personal Information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not disclose your Personal Information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

A. Exercising Your Privacy Rights

Contact Information: To exercise your privacy rights as a California Consumer, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:

Email us at privacy@worxbee.com
Calling us at 1-844-410-0263

Procedure to Address Your Requests: As required or permitted under applicable law, we may need to verify your identity by asking you or your agent to provide your name, physical address, email address, contact information, and information about your account or previous transactions with us. If we believe we need further information to verify your request as required by law, we may ask you to provide additional information to us. Authorized agents can make a request on your behalf if you have given them legal power of attorney or we are provided proof of signed permission, verification of your identity, and, in some cases, confirmation that you had provided the agent permission to submit the request through a written authorization document, signed by the California Consumer, containing the California Consumer’s name, address, telephone number, and valid email address, and expressly authorizing the individual to act on behalf of the California Consumer. We may also require that you directly verify your identity and the authority of your authorized agent. We reserve the right to reject authorized agents who have not fulfilled the above requirements or automated requests under California Privacy Law where we have reason to believe the security of the requestor’s personal information may be at risk.

Verification Procedures. We are required by California Privacy Laws to verify the identity of individuals who submit a consumer request. The verifiable consumer request must provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify your identity and describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. The information we may need in order to verify your identity differs depending upon the request made and our relationship with you and might include (as applicable) your name, the email address you regularly use to interact with us, your telephone number, your date of birth, and, if available, your claim or policy number. We will take steps to verify your request by matching the information provided by you with the information we have in our records. In some cases, we may request additional information to verify your identity, or where necessary to process your request. We can only respond to your request or provide you with information if we are able to verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you. If we are unable to verify your identity after a good faith attempt, we may deny the request and, if so, will explain the basis for the denial.

How Often You may exercise your rights. You may only request to exercise your Right to Access (as described in Section B(1) above) twice within a 12-month period. Your request to exercise privacy rights must provide sufficient information and describe your request(s) with sufficient details so that we can understand, evaluate, and respond to it accordingly.

Response Timing: We strive to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require additional time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.
