8. CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS (CCPA / CPRA)
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (collectively, "CCPA/CPRA"), affords you additional rights. This section supplements the information in this Privacy Policy and applies to California residents only.
8.1 Categories of Personal Information Collected
In the past twelve (12) months, we have collected the following categories of personal information as defined by the CCPA:
• Identifiers (e.g., name, email address, IP address)
• Commercial information (e.g., products purchased, purchase history)
• Internet or other electronic network activity information (e.g., browsing history on our Site)
• Geolocation data (approximate, derived from IP address)
• Inferences drawn from other personal information to create a profile about consumer preferences
8.2 Sale or Sharing of Personal Information
We do not sell personal information as traditionally understood. We may share certain identifiers and browsing data with advertising and analytics providers in ways that may constitute "sharing" or "selling" under the CCPA/CPRA. California residents have the right to opt out of such sharing by contacting us at zircaluxe@gmail.com with the subject line "California Privacy Opt-Out."
8.3 California-Specific Rights
In addition to the rights described in Section 7, California residents have the right to:
• Know: request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected, the purposes for collection, and the categories of third parties with whom we share information.
• Delete: request deletion of personal information we have collected, subject to certain exceptions.
• Correct: request correction of inaccurate personal information.
• Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information: to the extent we collect sensitive personal information (as defined by CPRA), you have the right to limit its use to specified purposes.
• Non-Retaliation: we will not retaliate against you for exercising your CCPA/CPRA rights.
Requests may be submitted by email to zircaluxe@gmail.com with the subject line "California Privacy Request." We will respond within forty-five (45) days, with one possible extension of an additional forty-five (45) days where reasonably necessary.
9. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
Our Site is not directed to children under the age of thirteen (13), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, we will promptly delete such information. If you believe we may have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately at zircaluxe@gmail.com.
10. LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES
Our Site may contain links to third-party websites, including social media platforms and payment processors. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.
11. DO NOT TRACK DISCLOSURE
Some web browsers incorporate a "Do Not Track" ("DNT") feature that signals to websites that you do not wish to have your online activity tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret Do Not Track signals, and no uniform technological standard has been established, our Site currently does not respond to Do Not Track signals. We will revisit this policy if and when a uniform standard is established by applicable law or industry consensus.
California residents: Note that we make additional disclosures about the collection of personal information for targeted advertising or analytics purposes in Section 8 of this Privacy Policy, and you have rights to opt out of certain such sharing as described therein.
12. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by updating the Effective Date at the top of this Policy and, where required by law, by sending you an email notification or displaying a prominent notice on our Site. Your continued use of the Site following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
