CALIFORNIA PRIVACY POLICY

Effective Date

This California Privacy Policy is effective as of Jan. 1, 2023, and was last updated on November 1, 2024.

Scope

In addition to the information contained in our General Website Privacy Policy, this California Privacy Policy provides you with information regarding Purely Insurance Solutions, LLC, and its affiliated entities (collectively, “Purely,”“we,” “us,” and “our”) treatment of your personal information.

“Personal information” is information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked to a particular person or household. In addition to personal information, we may collect, use, and/or disclose aggregate, anonymized, or deidentified data. This data cannot reasonably be linked to any particular individual or household and our collection, use, and disclosure of it is not within the scope of this privacy policy. We only maintain and use such data in deidentified form, and we will not attempt to reidentify it, except to test deidentification and ensure it cannot be associated with anyone.

Your Rights

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (collectively, “CCPA”), California residents, including via an authorized agent, have the following rights:

  • The right to know what personal information we have collected about you, including the categories of personal information, categories of sources from which we collected the personal information, the purpose for our collection of your personal information, the categories of third parties to whom we disclose personal information, and the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you;
  • The right to delete personal information we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions;
  • The right to correct inaccurate personal information that we maintain about you; and
  • The right to not receive discriminatory treatment for exercising your privacy rights.


How to Submit a Request to Know, Access, Correct, or Delete

If you are a California resident and you or your authorized agent would like to submit a request to know, access, correct, or delete your personal information, you can email your request to [email protected], call us toll-free at 877-215-5431.

What Happens After You Submit a Request to Know, Access, Correct, or Delete

Following a request to know, access, correct, or delete your personal information, we will take commercially reasonable steps to verify your identity, such as asking you to provide information matching what we have in our files (e.g., name, address, email address). If you are an agent authorized to make a request on a California resident’s behalf, please indicate that when submitting your request. Agents must generally provide a signed authorization evidencing their authority to act on behalf of another individual.

Any requests that can be processed by us will be done so in no more than 45 days from the date we receive your request, unless we notify you that an extension is required. In case of an extended completion period, we will process your request in no more than 90 days from the date of your original request. Consumers are limited to two requests to know or access within a 12-month period.
