California Resident Privacy Rights 

Effective Date: January 1, 2020

The California Consumer Protection Act (“CCPA”) grants California residents certain additional rights of privacy related to personal information that Berkshire collects about you. 
 
Berkshire does not sell personal information collected from a consumer for any purpose. 
 
If you are a California Resident, California law requires us to provide you with the following rights: 
 
1. The Right to Know: You have a right to request that we disclose the following personal information we have collected about you over the past 12 months: 
  • The categories of personal information we have collected about you;
  • The categories of sources from which personal information is collected;
  • The business or commercial purposes for collecting or selling personal information;
  • The categories of third-parties, if any, with whom we share your personal information; and
  • The specific pieces of information we have collected about you.
2. Right to Delete: Right to request that we delete your personal information upon receipt of a verifiable request. There are several exceptions to the right of deletion, including but not limited to, when the data is necessary to do any of the following: 
  • Complete your transaction with us;
  • Detect security incidents;
  • Debug to identify and repair errors;
  • Exercise free speech; 
  • Comply with the California Electric Communications Privacy Act; 
  • Engage in research in the public interest; 
  • Reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on relationship with the business;
  • Comply with a legal obligation; or 
  • Otherwise used in a lawful manner that is compatible with the context it was provided.
3. Right to Not be Discriminated Against: Berkshire will not discriminate against any consumer who exercises any of the rights mentioned above. 
 
California residents may submit a CCPA request by either sending an email to [email protected] or calling our toll-free phone number at (877) 523-7722. Once Berkshire receives your request, we will take reasonable steps to verify your identity prior to responding to a request. These steps may include, but are not limited to, verifying your name, email address and other information provided to Berkshire by you. You are also permitted to designate an authorized agent to submit a request to know or a request to delete. For an authorized agent to be verified, you must provide the authorized agent with written permission to submit a request on your behalf. Berkshire may also follow-up with you to verify your identity before proceeding with a request made by an authorized agent.
