This section is applicable to residents of California. If you are a resident of California, you have certain rights described below. The following does not apply to individuals who do not live in California on a permanent basis.
If you are a California resident who has provided personal data to us for the purpose of establishing a business relationship for personal, family or household purposes (a
“California Customer”), you may request information about whether we have disclosed your personal information to any third parties for such third parties’ direct marketing
purposes. In general, if we have made such a disclosure, upon receipt of a request by a California Customer, we are required to provide a list of all third parties to whom
personal information was disclosed in the preceding calendar year, as well as the “Categories of Personal Information Collected,” above. California Customers may
request further information about our compliance with this law by mailing us at 75 5th St NW, Suite 2404, Atlanta, GA 30308 or emailing us at [email protected]. Please note that we are only required to respond to two requests per California Customer each year.
This section of our Privacy Policy provides California residents with a comprehensive description of EzCashew’s online and offline practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personal information and the rights of California consumers regarding
their personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”). This section applies to all California residents (but not including legal entities, such as companies). The section will not apply, however, if EzCashew does not collect any
personal information about you or if all the information we collect is exempt from the statute (for example, the CCPA does not protect information that is already protected by certain other privacy laws, and it does not protect information that is already publicly available). For purposes of this section regarding the rights of California residents,
“personal information” does not include publicly available information that is lawfully made available to the public from federal, state, or local government records; and the words “you” or “your” specifically refers to California Consumers.
You have a Right to Know About Personal Information Collected, Disclosed, or Sold.
You have the right to request that EzCashew disclose what personal information we collect, use and disclose. This is called the “Right to Know”. Under the Right to Know, you can request a listing of the types of personal information we have collected about you, the sources of that information, how we use the information, other individuals and
business with whom we share personal information, and the specific pieces of personal information that we have collected about you.
If you would like the above information, you may contact us through our webpage or customer service. When you make a request under your Right to Know, you can expect the following:
We will verify your identity. You will need to provide us the following information: email address and full name in order for us to verify that you are who you say you are.
We will confirm our receipt of your request within 10 days. If you have not received a response within a few days after that, please let us know by contacting us at the webpage or phone number listed below.
We will respond to your request within 45 days. If necessary, we may need an additional period of time, up to another 45 days, to process your request.
In certain cases, a Request to Know may be denied, for example, if we cannot verify your identity or if providing you the information could create an
unreasonable risk to someone’s security (for example, we do not want sensitive information disclosed inappropriately). If we deny your request, we will explain why we denied it. If we deny a request, we will still try to provide you as much of the information as we can, but we will withhold the information subject to denial.
In the last 12 months, we have collected the categories of personal information described above under the section “Categories of Personal Information Collected.” All such information was collected from sources as described above and for the purposes described above. We only disclose such information to third parties as described in the section “Disclosures and Transfers of Personal Information”. EzCashew does not sell
personal information.
You have a Right to Request Deletion of Personal Information about You.
You have a right to request the deletion of your personal information collected or maintained by EzCashew. You may request deletion of your personal information by contacting us through our webpage or customer service, as provided below, or by deleting or unregistering for the Services via the App. When you make a request for deletion, you can expect the following:
After you request deletion, you will need to confirm that you want your information deleted.
We will verify your identity. You will need to provide us the following information: email address and full name.
We will confirm our receipt of your request within 10 days. If you have not received a response within a few days after that, please let us know by contacting us at the webpage or phone number listed below.
We will respond to your request within 45 days. If necessary, we may need an additional period of time, up to another 45 days, to process your request.
In certain cases, a Request for Deletion may be denied, for example, if we cannot verify your identity, the law requires that we maintain the information, or if we need the information for internal purposes such as providing Services or completing an order. If we deny your request, we will explain why we denied it.
Note that simply deleting the app from your mobile device may not result in the deletion of your personal information. [Even if you request that your personal information be deleted, EzCashew may retain certain information regarding how you use the App or the Services for our internal analytics purposes.]
Right to Opt-Out of the Sale of Personal Information
You have a right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information by businesses. EzCashew does not sell your personal information and opt-out is not applicable.
Right to Non-Discrimination for the Exercise of a Consumer’s Privacy Rights
You have a right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for exercising any of the privacy rights conferred by the CCPA. If you chose to exercise your rights under the
CCPA, we will not:
Deny goods or services.
Charge different prices or rates for goods and services, including through the use of discounts or other benefits or imposing penalties.
Provide a different level or quality of goods or services.
Suggest that you will receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
In any other way, discriminate or attempt to discriminate against you for the exercise of your rights under the CCPA.
Authorized Agents
You may designate an authorized agent to make a request under the CCPA on your behalf. We will deny requests from agents that do not submit proof of authorization
from you. To verify that an authorized agent has authority to act for you, we may require a copy of a power of attorney or require that you provide the authorized agent with written permission and verify your own identity with us.
Contact Information
To request additional information, or make any of the requests described above, you may contact us through our App or website.

additional Services, to comply with legal requirements, or to preserve or defend our legal rights.

advertising services) that you do not wish such operators to track certain of your online activities over time and across different websites.

We maintain reasonable safeguards to protect the Personal Information we collect. While we implement these measures, please note that 100% security is not possible, and we cannot guarantee that the security measures we have in place to safeguard
personal information will never be defeated or fail, or that those measures will always be sufficient or effective.
EzCashew may assign you a user ID and a password as part of your participation and access to the App. Only you may use your user ID and password. You may not share your user ID and password with anyone else, and you are solely responsible for maintaining and protecting the confidentiality of your user ID and password. You are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your user ID. You play a role in
protecting your information as well.
Any information, communications, or material of any type or nature that you submit to any third-party websites (including, but not limited to any EzCashew related or

expectation of privacy. EzCashew cannot control the actions of other users of any social media platform or website and is not responsible for any content or Submissions contained on such sites and platforms.
Your information may be transferred to, and maintained on, computers located outside of your state, province/territory, or country where the privacy laws may not be as
protective as those where you live. If you are located outside the United States and choose to provide information to us, please be aware that we transfer your Personal Information to the United States and process and store it there. As a result, this information may be subject to access requests from governments, courts, law
enforcement officials and national security authorities in the United States according to its laws. Subject to the applicable laws, we will use reasonable efforts to ensure that appropriate protections are in place to maintain protections on the Personal
Information. By submitting your Personal Information, you consent to having your personal data transferred to, processed, and stored in the United States.
If we or any of our affiliates is involved in a merger, acquisition, asset sale, joint venture or other, similar transaction, we will continue to ensure the confidentiality of any

We are subject to an event of bankruptcy
you acknowledge and agree that personal and other information comprises an asset of ours and that Personal Information and other information is subject to assignment,
transfer and/or acquisition by a third party. Accordingly, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Privacy Policy, you acknowledge and agree that such transfers may occur and that a person or entity that acquires us may continue to subsequently use your Personal Information, and that such subsequent use may not be consistent with this Privacy Policy.
