Your Rights Under the CCPA

Subject to exceptions, the CCPA provides California residents with the rights discussed below. For convenience, and as required by the CCPA, we explain how you can exercise those rights, to the extent they are applicable.

  1. Right to Know. You have the right to request that we provide you certain information about our collection and use of your personal information during the past twelve (12) months (or longer, as permitted by the CCPA).  Specifically, you may request that we disclose (in whole or part):
    1. The categories of personal information we collected about you;
    2. The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you;
    3. The business and commercial purposes for collecting (or selling or sharing, if applicable) your personal information;
    4. The categories of third parties to whom we disclose (or sell or share, if applicable) your personal information;
    5. The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you;
    6. If we disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, the categories of personal information received by each category of third party; and
    7. If applicable, the categories of personal information that we sold, and for each category, the categories of third parties whom such information was sold.As noted above, you have the right to request that we provide copies of the specific pieces of personal information we collected about you.  If a verifiable consumer request is made, and subject to any exceptions or limitations under the CCPA, we will take steps to deliver the personal information to you either by mail or electronically.  If we provide the information to you electronically, it will be in a portable and readily useable format, to the extent technically feasible.  Consistent with the CCPA and our interest in the security of your personal information, we will describe but may not provide copies of certain personal information we may receive from you (e.g., driver’s license number, other government-issued identification number, financial account number, health or medical identification number, account password, or security questions or answers) in response to a CCPA request, to the extent any of those items are in our possession.
  1. Right to Request Deletion. You have the right to request that we delete personal information we collected from you, subject to any exceptions or limitations under the CCPA.
  2. Right to Correct Inaccurate Information. If we maintain inaccurate personal information about you, you have the right to request that we correct that inaccurate personal information, taking into account the nature of the personal information and the purposes of the processing of the personal information.

Consumers in California also have the right to opt-out of (a) the sale of personal information, or (b) the sharing of their personal information for the purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising (as defined in the CCPA).  California consumers also have the right to limit the use or disclosure of sensitive personal information by the business if such information is used or disclosed for certain purposes, as required by the CCPA. Because Fundamental Income does not engage in any of the foregoing activities, these rights are not available.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise the rights described above, you—or someone authorized to act on your behalf—must submit a verifiable consumer request to us by sending an e-mail to: inquiry@fundamentalincome.com with the subject line: “CCPA Request” or calling us at 830-660-6500.  Your request must include your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, the nature of your inquiry and the context in which we may have received your information.  If you are an agent submitting a request on behalf of a consumer, we may request that you submit a signed permission from the consumer authorizing you to make the request.  In order to protect the privacy and data security of consumers, the verifiable consumer request must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative of such consumer; and
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

As indicated above, please be aware that the CCPA provides certain limitations and exceptions to the foregoing rights, which may result in us denying or limiting our response to your request.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request to know twice within a 12-month period.  We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.  We may also request that you provide additional information if needed to verify your identity or authority to make the request.  We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you or the consumer on whose behalf you are making the request.

Response Timing and Format

The CCPA requires us to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt; however, we may extend that period by an additional 45 days.  If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response via e-mail.  Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the receipt of the verifiable consumer request, provided that you may request disclosure beyond the 12-month period as permitted by the CCPA.  The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For requests to know specific pieces of information collected about you, we will select the format of our response; the format will be readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another. We will not charge a fee to process or respond to a verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing the request.

Our Commitment Not to Discriminate

Consistent with the CCPA, we will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights by:

  • Denying you goods or services.
  • Charging you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
  • Providing you a different level or quality of goods or services.
  • Suggesting that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

Changes to this Notice

We reserve the right to amend this Notice at our discretion and at any time. If there are changes to this Notice, we will post them here and update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this document. Continued use of this website after any changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes. Please check this page periodically for updates.
