VI. CHOICE AND CONTROL

GDPR
You may, if you are located within the European Union, a country that has adopted the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) , or if the laws of your country or U.S. state otherwise require, withdraw your consent where consent is required or otherwise object to uses of your information as described above by contacting Chris Speights <cspeights@folsomfencesupply.com>. You may also withdraw your consent to email marketing by unsubscribing, using the unsubscribe link in such communications. If you do so, Folsom Fence Supply will cease using your personal information for the above purposes and remove it from its systems unless such personal information is permitted to be used by Folsom Fence Supply for another purpose set out in this Privacy Policy or Folsom Fence Supply determines and demonstrates a compelling legitimate interest to continue in processing your personal information. In case of withdrawal of consent, Folsom Fence Supply will not process your personal information subject to this consent any longer unless legally required to do so. In case Folsom Fence Supply is required to retain your personal information for legal reasons your personal information will be restricted from further processing and only retained for the term required by law. However, any withdrawal has no effect on past processing of personal information by Folsom Fence Supply up to the point in time of your withdrawal. Furthermore, if your use of a Folsom Fence Supply offering requires your prior consent, Folsom Fence Supply will not be (any longer) able to provide the relevant product, service, offer, or event to you after your withdrawal. Please direct any such request for withdrawal to, or write to Folsom Fence Supply at Chris Speights <cspeights@folsomfencesupply.com>.

Under the GDPR, we are a Data Controller of your personal information. You can request from Folsom Fence Supply, at any time, information about which personal information Folsom Fence Supply processes about you and the correction or deletion of such personal information. If Folsom Fence Supply uses your personal information to perform a contract with you, you may further request a copy of the personal data that you have provided to Folsom Fence Supply. To make such a request, please contact the email set forth below and specify in detail the information or the activity to which your request relates, the format in which you would like the
personal data returned and the recipient, you or your designee. Furthermore, you may contact Folsom Fence Supply if you believe that the personal information that Folsom Fence Supply has is incorrect.

If you are located within the European Union, a country that has adopted GDPR or U.S. states that has provided the rights enumerated and described below, you may benefit from a number of rights with regard to your personal information that we process. These rights are defined and, in some cases limited, by the laws of your jurisdiction. These rights include the following:

• The right to access – You have the right to request copies of your data. We may charge you a small fee for this service.
• The right to rectification – You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate. You also have the right to request we complete the information you believe is incomplete.
• The right to erasure – You have the right to request that we erase your data, under certain conditions.
• The right to restrict processing – You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your data, under certain conditions.
• The right to object to processing – You have the right to object to our processing of your data, under certain conditions.
• The right to data portability – You have the right to request that we transfer the data that we have collected to another organization, or directly to you, under certain conditions.

If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the address or e-mail identified in the Contact Us section at the end of this document.

 

We may ask you to verify your identity before responding to such requests.

You have the right to complain to a Data Protection Authority about our collection and use of your personal information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority in the European Economic Area (EEA).

Your right to have your personal information deleted does not apply, however, where the information is necessary:

• for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
• for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by European Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
• for reasons of public interest in the area of public health;
• for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in so far as the rights referred to above are likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing; or
• for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

You also have the right to have Folsom Fence Supply cease processing your personal information, but that right is dependent upon the following events: (i) you state that the personal information Folsom Fence Supply has about you is incorrect; but Folsom Fence Supply may retain the information for as long as it requires to check the accuracy of the relevant personal information; (ii) there is no legal basis for Folsom Fence Supply’s processing of your personal information and you demand that Folsom Fence Supply restrict your personal information from further processing, (iii) Folsom Fence Supply no longer requires your personal information but you claim that you require such data in order to claim or exercise legal rights or to defend against third party claims; or (iv) in case you object to the processing of your personal information by Folsom Fence Supply it may retain and process the information for as long as it is required to review as to whether Folsom Fence Supply has a prevailing interest or legal obligation in continuing to process your personal information.
You may inquire about the exercise of these rights and, if the laws of your jurisdiction permit, exercise them as permitted by law by contacting Chris Speights <cspeights@folsomfencesupply.com>.

California Residents

The only personal information Folsom Fence Supply collects, processes and maintains is business information in which you or an organization on your behalf have communicated with us concerning a business transaction, asked us to perform a service or provide you with a product, or which is otherwise excluded from the definition of “personal information” and most of the requirements with regard to that information within the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). The business basis for, and the manner in which, such business information is collected and processed is set forth within this Privacy Notice.

Folsom Fence Supply does not “sell” personal information as the terms “sell” or “sale” are defined within CCPA. Folsom Fence Supply only shares the information it collects with business partners who are its “service providers” and sharing information in this way is not a “sale” as that term is defined in the CCPA. Service providers are business partners who perform business functions for Folsom Fence Supply, as the term “Service Provider” is defined within CCPA. They agree to use information only for these business purposes and not to redisclose it except as permitted or required by law as set out in our contracts with them. The nature of the services provided by these business partners and a description of the categories of these service providers is set forth within this Privacy Notice.

If you have questions regarding collection and sharing of your business information or believe that information that identifies you and has been collected and shared by Folsom Fence Supply is not business information within the meaning of CCPA or is not provided to a service provider as stated above, and you wish to advise us of these beliefs and ask that we not share that information please contact Chris Speights <cspeights@folsomfencesupply.com>.

Nevada Residents

If you are a resident of Nevada, you may request we limit the sale of certain personal information to third parties for resale or licensing purposes. You are entitled to register your preference for limits on such sales in the future by contacting us.
Please contact us via e-mail with the subject line, "Nevada Do Not Sell Request". You must include your first and last name, zip code, the e-mail address connected to your account, or, if you have terminated your account, then the e-mail address connected to your terminated account. We reserve the right to require further information to verify you are a Nevada resident.

VIII. SECURITY

The security of your personal information is very important to us. We utilize commercially reasonable information security standards to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. Folsom Fence Supply supports online security using appropriately secure technology because we want your data to be safe. We bind our employees and data processors to written agreements to observe your privacy and confidentiality rights. Unfortunately, no method of Internet transmission is one hundred percent secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its security.

IX. DURATION AND RETENTION

Folsom Fence Supply will retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy, or as required or permitted by law, and then will delete it as required by law. For example, Folsom Fence Supply will retain your information as long as required to comply with applicable tax/revenue laws, cybersecurity and privacy laws, laws and regulations that affect the conduct of our business; to resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, co-operate with law enforcement requests or to meet other legal obligations. We may also retain log files for internal analysis purposes, though we would retain them for only a brief period except in cases where we are legally required to retain them for longer periods, and in cases where they are used for site safety and security or to improve website functionality.

X. CONTACT REPRESENTATIVE

If you have questions regarding this Privacy Policy, wish to lodge a complaint or wish to exercise the rights in the Choice and Control section of the Policy, you may contact Chris Speights <cspeights@folsomfencesupply.com>.

XI. UPDATES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We may occasionally update this Privacy Policy. If we do, we will change the “effective date” at the top of the Privacy Policy on this page. We encourage you to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed about our collection, use, and disclosure of personal information.
