This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP) information, referring/exit pages, operating system information, date/time stamps, and clickstream data. We and our Service Providers use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the site and services, to track users' movements around the site and services, and to gather demographic information about our user base in aggregate. We do not link this automatically-collected data to personally identifiable information. We use one or more third-party tracking services that may use cookies to track non-personally identifiable information about visitors to our site in the aggregate for marketing research purposes.

LINKS TO OTHER SITES

The Site contains links to third party sites that are not owned or controlled by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies only to information collected, retained and accessed by the Site, including services available through the Site. In addition, certain Service Providers may have their own privacy policies that will apply to certain services, as described above.

BUSINESS TRANSITION

In the event that RentHop goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, your personally identifiable information will likely be among the assets transferred. You will be notified of any such change in ownership or control of your personal information. This Privacy Policy will become binding upon the new owner of the information until amended.

CONSENT TO TRANSFER AND PROCESSING

Personal information collected through the Site and/or its services may be stored and processed in the United States or in any other country in which RentHop or its providers (or its or their affiliates or providers) maintain facilities. By using the Site and/or its services, you consent to any such transfer and processing of information outside of your country.

California Privacy Notice (CCPA)

This section provides additional information for California residents under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). The terms used in this section have the same meaning as in the CCPA. This section does not apply to information that is not considered "personal information," such as anonymous, deidentified, or aggregated information, nor does it apply to publicly available information as defined in the CCPA.

To the extent we process deidentified personal information, we will make no attempt to reidentify such data.

The personal information we collect is described above in Information we collect. The personal information we disclose for business or commercial purposes is described above in How we disclose information. The length of time for which we retain personal information is described above in How long we keep your data. Our purposes for processing data are described above in Purposes of processing.

Information “Sharing” and “Selling”

We “share” certain personal information with third party ad networks for purposes of behavioral advertising, including: Internet Activity, Online Identifiers, and Other Sensitive Data. This allows us to show you ads that are more relevant to you.

We "sell" personal data to third parties, as that term is defined in the CCPA.

You may opt-out of these data practices here.

We do not knowingly sell or share (for cross-context behavioral advertising) the personal information of consumers under 16 years of age.

How We Use Sensitive Personal Information

We use the following sensitive personal information to provide you with products and services and other uses approved by the CCPA: Driver's license number, Passport number, Voice recordings, Precise geolocation, Contents of mail, email or text messages. In some cases, we may use this information to infer characteristics about you. In the course of doing so we may disclose your sensitive personal information to our service providers and/or contractors. You have the right to limit our use of your sensitive personal information to uses that are necessary to provide you with products and services. To exercise your right, submit a request. Alternatively, you or your authorized agent may submit a Request to Limit via email to moc.pohtner@pohtner-ycavirp.

CCPA Rights

Your CCPA rights are described below. Make a Privacy Request by clicking here or the link at the top of this page or by emailing us at moc.pohtner@pohtner-ycavirp.

Right to Know and Access

You have the right to request to know and access the following about the personal information we have collected about you in the past 12 months:

the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you
the categories of sources from which we collect personal information about you
the business or commercial purposes for which we collect, sell, or share personal information
the categories of third parties with whom we disclose the information
the categories of personal information about you that we have sold, shared, or disclosed for a business purpose, and the categories of third parties to whom we have sold, shared, or disclosed that information for a business purpose

The information we would provide to you in response to a Request to Know Categories is contained in this Privacy Notice. To receive a copy of the specific personal information we have about you, submit a Request to Know or Access via the link above. If you make a Request to Know more than twice in a 12-month period, or we determine the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, we may require you to pay a small fee for this service.

Right to Delete

You have the right to request that we delete any personal information about you that you have provided to us. Subject to certain limitations, we will delete from our records your requested personal information and direct our service providers to do the same.

Right to Non-Discrimination

If you exercise your CCPA consumer rights:

We will not deny goods or services to you
We will not charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through the use of discounts or other benefits or penalties
We will not provide a different level or quality of goods or services to you
We will not suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services
We will not retaliate against you, as an employee, applicant for employment, or independent contractor

We may still offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA such as discounts, rewards, premium features, or loyalty accounts that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels.

Right to Opt-Out

You have the right to opt-out of any selling and sharing of your personal information.

You may exercise your right to opt-out here.

Right to Correct

You have the right to correct inaccuracies in your personal data, taking into account the nature of the data and our purposes for processing it.

Request Verification

Before we can respond to a Request to Know or Request to Delete, we will need to verify that you are the consumer who is the subject of the CCPA request. Verification is important for preventing fraudulent requests and identity theft. Requests to Opt-Out do not require verification.

Typically, identity verification will require you to confirm certain information about yourself based on information we have already collected. For example, we will ask you to verify that you have access to the email address we have on file for you. If we cannot verify your identity based on our records, we cannot fulfill your CCPA request. If you submit a request not through our webform, we will ask you to provide the same information requested in the webform.

For a request that seeks specific personal information, we ask that you sign a declaration stating that you are the consumer whose personal information is the subject of the request, as required by the CCPA.

In some cases, we may have no reasonable method by which we can verify a consumer's identity. For example:

If a consumer submits a request but we have not collected any personal information about that consumer, we cannot verify the request.
If the only data we have collected about a consumer is gathered through website cookies (i.e. the consumer visited our website but had no other interaction with us), we are unable to reasonably associate a requester with any data collected; therefore, we cannot verify the request.

Authorized Agent

A California resident's authorized agent may submit a rights request under the CCPA by emailing us at moc.pohtner@pohtner-ycavirp. Requests submitted by an authorized agent will still require verification of the consumer who is the subject of the request in accordance with the process described above. We will also ask for proof that the consumer who is the subject of the request authorized an agent to submit a privacy request on their behalf by either verifying their own identity with us directly or directly confirming with us that they provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request. An authorized agent that has power of attorney pursuant to California Probate Code section 4121 to 4130 may also submit proof of statutory power of attorney, which does not require separate consumer verification.

If you have trouble accessing this notice, please contact us at moc.pohtner@pohtner-ycavirp.

If you have any privacy-related questions or have trouble accessing this notice, please email moc.pohtner@pohtner-ycavirp.
