Visitors residing in certain states may have different or additional rights regarding their  personal data than the rights described above.  

California Residents

The California Consumer Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA”) and the California Privacy Rights  Act (“CPRA”) provide additional rights to California residents. This section addresses those  rights and applies only to California residents.  

In the past 12 months, we have collected the categories of personal data (defined as “personal  information” under the CCPA/CPRA) described above in our “What types of personal data do  we collect?” from users of our Website. We have not collected “Sensitive Personal Information”  as defined under the CPRA in the past 12 months. For example, we only collect non-precise  geolocation data, including location derived from an IP address, and not precise geo-location  information or other sensitive personal information.  

We collect and use personal data for the business and commercial purposes described above  in the “How do we use your personal data?” section. While we do not “sell” personal data for  monetary consideration to third parties, some of our disclosures of personal data may be  considered a “sale” or “share” as those terms are defined under California law. Specifically, we  may allow third-party partners to collect information from your browser’s cookies, web beacons,  or using similar technologies for our commercial purposes, such as analytics purposes. We do  not share such information with third parties for purposes of targeted advertising.  

Our Website is not marketed to or intended for visitors under age 18, and we do not  knowingly sell or share the personal data of minors under 16 years old who are California  residents.  

California residents can also designate an authorized agent to submit requests on their behalf.  We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity and the identity and authority of your  authorized agent prior to complying with any request.  

If you are a California resident and would like to exercise your legal rights under the CCPA  and CPRA, including the right to “opt-out” of the sale or sharing of your personal information as  described herein, please contact us at info@elizabethcconsulting.com. You have the right to not  be discriminated against for exercising your consumer rights. Please note that certain  information may be exempt from such requests under California law.  

Annually, California residents may request (i) a list of categories of personal information  disclosed to third parties during the immediately preceding calendar year for those third parties’  own direct marketing purposes; and (ii) a list of the categories of third parties to whom we  disclosed such information. To exercise a request, please contact us at info@elizabethcconsulting.com and specify you are making a “California Shine the Light”

request. We may require additional information from you to allow us to verify your identity and  are only required to respond to requests once during any calendar year.  

Other States  

For visitors of the Website residing in Colorado, Connecticut, Montana, Nevada, Virginia,  Tennessee, Texas, or Utah, and in other such states not explicitly listed, state law may grant you  additional rights with regard to your personal data under applicable law.
