California Residents - Disclosures, Rights and Privacy Requests

Disclosures

The California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA") requires specific disclosures for California residents. To accomplish those, this Privacy Policy helps You understand how Justice Systems handles Your information by explaining:

CCPA Rights

The CCPA also permits consumers who are California residents to: (a) request information about how Justice Systems collects, uses and discloses their information over the past 12 months; (b) opt out of Justice Systems selling their information; (c) request Justice Systems delete their information; and (d) request certain information regarding Justice Systems's disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes under California's "Shine the Light Law" (Civil Code Section 1798.83). The CCPA also provides the right to not be discriminated against by a California resident for exercising any of the privacy rights. Justice Systems will not discriminate against You for exercising any of these rights. You should note that these rights do not apply to certain exempted activities provided under the CCPA (e.g., personal data collected, processed, shared, or disclosed by financial institutions pursuant to federal law such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act).

Making a CCPA Privacy Request

If You are a California resident, You may exercise Your rights under the CCPA by submitting a request to the Subscriber by following the Subscriber's procedures outlined in the Subscriber's privacy policy. You may also submit a request to Justice Systems through the following link: Privacy Request Site or by sending an email to: privacyrequest@justicesystems.com. You may also contact Justice Systems as set forth in the section of this Privacy Policy entitled "Contact Justice Systems" below.

When submitting a request to Justice Systems, please identify the Justice Systems Omni Payment Portal when making such a request, the Subscriber, and describe Your request with sufficient detail to allow Justice Systems to properly understand, evaluate and respond to it. There is no fee for making a request. The CCPA provides for how long Justice Systems has to respond and governs the number of times You may submit a request over the course of a year.

Upon submitting a request to Justice Systems under the CCPA, Justice Systems will seek to validate Your identity in accordance with the CCPA. To do so, Justice Systems may request additional information and You will be responsible for providing that information. If You fail to do so, You understand that Justice Systems will not be able to respond to Your request. To the extent Justice Systems does not already have the information You provide to validate Your identity, Justice Systems will only use that information for that purpose.

The CCPA provides for a variety of exceptions to Your rights under the CCPA and as result, Justice Systems may have reasons to deny a specific request. If that were to occur, Justice Systems will inform You of the denial and the basis for such denial.

Opt-Out of Sale of Personal Information

If you are 16 years of age or older, You have the right to direct Justice Systems to not sell Your personal information at any time (the "right to opt-out"). Justice Systems does not currently sell the personal information of users of the Payment Portal nor will Justice Systems ever sell personal information of any user it knows are less than 16 years of age, unless Justice Systems receives affirmative authorization (the "right to opt-in") from either the consumer who is at least 13 but not yet 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a consumer less than 13 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to personal information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time. To exercise the right to opt-out, You (or Your authorized representative) may submit a request to Justice Systems by sending an email to: citepaysupport@avenuinsights.com.
