www.koalafi.com/ccpa-request

 

Only you, an individual you designate to us as an authorized agent, or a business registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. In order to designate an individual as an authorized agent you would need to contact us and provide the authorization.

We will only respond to two verifiable consumer requests for access within a 12-month period. 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. This may include matching identifying information you provide to information we have on If you do not have a password- protected account with us, we will also ask you to provide a signed declaration under penalty of perjury that you are the consumer whose personal information is the subject of the request.
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

 

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. We will not disclose a consumer’s Social Security number, driver’s license number or other government-issued identification number, financial account number, any health insurance or medical identification number, an account password, or security questions and answers. In addition, we will not provide you with certain information if the disclosure would create a substantial, articulable, and unreasonable risk to the security of that personal information, your account with us, or the security of our systems or networks.

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

Response Timing and Format

We will provide you with a confirmation receipt within 10 days along with information regarding how we will process your request. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response electronically unless you have opted not to receive disclosures electronically from us. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding receipt of the verifiable consumer request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will provide your personal information in a format that is portable and readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance. For all other requests for personal information, we will provide your personal information in a format that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

 

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your 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 your request.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless otherwise permitted by the CCPA, we will not:

 

  • Deny you goods or
  • Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
