6.  Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Information

Opting Out of Cross-Context Behavioral Advertising or “Sales” of your Information.

Under the laws of certain U.S. states, you may have the right to opt out of our processing or sharing of your information for online cross-context behavioral advertising purposes. Note that certain state laws also allow you to opt out of the “sale” of your information to third parties in exchange for valuable consideration.

Communications Preferences.

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the PII you provide to us. You have the right to ask us not to process your personal data for marketing purposes. If you have signed up for our e-mail list and later decide you don’t want to receive any more e-mails from us, you have the choice at any time to withdraw your consent for us to contact you by using the “unsubscribe” function in our e-mail messages, or by contacting us via e-mail at privacy@ggbgnssg.com, or by postal mail at: GGBGNSSG Customer Service, PO Box 316620, Chicago, IL, 60631, USA.

You also have the choice to do the following at any time by contacting us via the e-mail or postal address above:

Your rights. The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, effective January 1, 2023 (“CPRA”) and some other state privacy laws provide consumers with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes your rights and explains how to exercise those rights.

1. Right To Know What Information We Collect, With Whom We Share Your Information, And The Right To Data Portability: You may request that we disclose to you the categories of personal information we collect about you, the categories of sources from which we collected that personal information, the categories of personal information we sold or disclosed, our business or commercial purposes for collecting and selling such personal information, the categories of third parties with whom we shared such personal information, and the specific pieces of personal information we collected about you over the past 12 months.

2. Right To Request Deletion Of Your Information: You may request we delete some or all of the personal information we maintain about you, subject to certain exceptions. If we cannot delete your personal information, we will give you a reason why we cannot do so. For security reasons, you or your authorized agent may be asked to verify your/their identity. Note that some personal data may be retained as permitted by law (e.g., to comply with legal obligations, to prevent fraud). We will delete or deidentify personal information not subject to certain exceptions from our records and will direct our service providers to take similar action.

3. Opt-out of “Sale”/“Sharing” of your personal information: We do not currently consider the ways we shared consumer personal information in the past 12 months to comprise the “sale” of personal information as defined in the CCPA or other applicable state privacy laws. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “sell” means the sale of your personal information to an outside party for monetary or other valuable consideration, subject to certain exceptions in the CCPA or other applicable privacy laws.

4. Right to Correct Inaccurate Personal Information: Taking into account the nature of the personal information and the purposes of the processing, this right provides an individual with the ability to seek to correct or update personal data that individual considers that we hold about that individual.

5. Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Information: This right is limited to sensitive personal information used for the purpose of inferring characteristics about an individual. We do not collect sensitive personal information nor do we use sensitive personal information for the purpose of inferring characteristics about an individual, therefore we do not offer a path to exercise this right.

6. Right of Non-Discrimination and Non-Retaliation: This right prohibits (a) denying an individual access to or use of goods and services, (b) charging different prices or rates for those goods and services, and/or (c) providing a different level or quality of those goods or services, as a result of the individual exercising any right under any data protection and privacy laws and/or regulations. We will not discriminate against you because you made any of these requests. We will not: (i) deny you goods or services; (ii) charge you different prices or rates for those goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties; (iii) provide you a different level or quality of our goods or services, or (iv) suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for our goods or services or a different level or quality of our goods or services.

In addition to the rights that are available to residents of California, other state privacy laws may guarantee the rights to:

  • Opt out of the processing of your personal data for the purposes of targeted advertising and for profiling in furtherance of decisions—including, for residents of Connecticut, solely automated decisions—that produce legal or similarly significant effects; and
  • Appeal any decision or indecision related to the exercise of any right the consumer is granted under the applicable state law.

If you would like to exercise any of these rights (including the right to appeal), please contact us by e-mailing us at: privacy@ggbgnssg.com, or via postal mail at PO Box 316620, Chicago, IL 60631, or via phone at (800) 942-4410.

We may deny certain requests, or fulfill a request only in part, based on our legal rights and obligations. For example, we may retain personal information as permitted by law, such as for tax or other record keeping purposes, to maintain an active account, to process transactions and facilitate customer requests, and/or to protect against fraud and other misuse of our Websites. We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity prior to responding to certain of your requests. The verification steps will vary depending on the sensitivity of the personal information. In some locations, you may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. When submitting such a request, please ensure you have adequately identified and authorized anyone acting on your behalf.

Shine the Light. California's “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our App who are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an e-mail to privacy@ggbgnssg.com or write us at: GGBGNSSG Legal Department, 20533 Biscayne Blvd. Suite 4-238, Aventura, FL 33180.

Response Timing and Format. We will confirm receipt of your request to know, correct, delete, and/or seek any request under the relevant U.S. state privacy law(s) within ten (10) business days. If you do not receive confirmation within the 10-day timeframe, please contact us at privacy@ggbgnssg.com. We endeavor to substantively respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of receipt. If we require more time (up to another 45 days), we will timely inform you of the reason(s) and extension period in writing. We may choose to verify your identity before responding to any such request.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding our receipt of your request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily usable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

7.  Data Security and Storage

We store your information primarily in the United States. Some information may be stored elsewhere. You authorize us to do so. The PII and other data we collect about you and your use of our Websites may be maintained in servers we control and maintain or in third-party servers. The information you provide may be transferred or accessed by entities in many different countries as described elsewhere in this Policy. By submitting your information, you agree to the transfer, storage, and processing of your data in accord with this Policy.

We have technical, administrative, and physical safeguards in place to help protect against unauthorized access to, use, and disclosure of PII and other information we maintain. Access to this information is authorized only for those who have a business need for such access.

We will do our best to keep the PII data we maintain secure. However, no program is totally secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that our safeguards will prevent every attempt at unauthorized access or use, or the disclosure of any PII. If you become aware of a security breach, please notify us immediately at privacy@ggbgnssg.com.

8. Payment

GGBGNSSG does not store credit-card data. Customer encrypted credit-card data is securely stored and processed by our payment-processing vendor.

By using the Websites, visitors to the Websites from outside the United States acknowledge and agree that our Websites are subject to United States laws and regulations, and waive any claims against us that may arise under their own national laws.

10. Vermont Residents

The information practices described above comply with U.S. federal law. Vermont law places additional limits on the sharing of your PII. In accordance with Vermont law, we will not disclose information we collect about Vermont residents to unaffiliated companies except as permitted by law, such as with the authorization or consent of the Vermont resident.

11. Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon their posting on the Websites. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you that it has been updated via an announcement on our Websites, so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we use and/or disclose it.

In case there is a conflict between the terms established in this Privacy Policy and the terms established in our Terms of Use, the Terms of Use prevail.
