8. Rights Under The CCPA
The CCPA provide California residents with rights regarding their personal information - the Right to Know, the Right to Delete, the Right to Correct, the Right to Limit use of Sensitive Personal Information, the Right to Opt-Out of the Sale of Personal Information or Sharing of Personal Information, and the Right to Non-Discrimination. This section describes your rights and explains how to exercise those rights, if applicable.

A. Right to Know
You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information (the “Right to Know”). Once we receive your request and confirm your identity, we will disclose to you:
      • Categories of Personal Information Collected, Disclosed, Sold, and/or Shared:

      • Specific Information
          • The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you.

B. Right to Delete
You have the right to request that Bozzuto and our service providers delete certain personal information that we collected about you (the “Right to Delete”). Your deletion rights are subject to several legal exceptions, and we may also deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:
    1. Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
    2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
    3. Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.

    7. Comply with a legal obligation.
    8. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Once we receive your request to delete and confirm your identity, we will review your request to evaluate if an exception applies that permits or requires us to retain part or all of the information. For example, we are subject to legal requirements to obtain certain records for minimum retention periods. We will delete or de-identify personal information not subject to one of these exceptions from our records and will direct our service providers to take similar action.

C. Right to Correct Inaccurate Personal Information
You have the right to request that Bozzuto correct inaccurate personal information about you (the “Right to Correct”). Once we receive your request and confirm your identity, we may request documentation from you to determine the accuracy of the information we maintain. If we determine that the information we maintain is inaccurate, we will correct it or delete if such deletion does not negatively impact you and you consent to this deletion. We reserve the right to deny your request, if we determine that the contested information is more likely than not to be accurate, based on the information available to us.

D. Right to Limit the Use of Sensitive Personal Information
You have the right to direct a business that collects your sensitive personal information to limit its use to uses which are necessary to perform the services or provide the goods reasonably expected.

      • Authorized agents may also email Privacy@Bozzuto.com to opt-out of sharing for consumers.

F. Right to Non-Discrimination

Unless permitted by the CCPA, 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, suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
