TEXAS PRIVACY RIGHTS
Updated July 1, 2024.
This page is intended for residents of Texas (“you,” “your,” “consumer”) and provides supplemental information regarding our Privacy Policy. The Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (“TDPSA”) provides consumers who are Texas residents with specific rights regarding their personal data (“Personal Data”). This includes your right to request access to, a copy of and/or the deletion of your Personal Data collected, used or disclosed by the owner (“we,” “our,” “us,” “Company”) of the website (“Website”) in connection with the Company’s business purposes within the last 12 months preceding the request, with certain exceptions.
The TDPSA defines “Personal Data” as any information, including sensitive data, that is linked or reasonably linkable to an identified or identifiable individual. If Personal Data is collected directly from you, there are some instances where you may have the option to decline providing that information. However, in some circumstances, choosing not to provide Personal Data may hinder our ability to provide you with the same level of service and overall experience as those who choose to provide Personal Data.
Regardless of which of your rights you choose to exercise, we will take reasonable measures to provide equal services and price regardless of the sharing of Personal Data, in accordance with applicable law. The TDPSA guarantees you the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for exercising your privacy rights granted by the TDPSA.
