CCPA

 

Memory Lane Games is committed to and compliant with the CCPA

Below we detail Memory Lane Games’s updated compliance with the 2018 CCPA regulations regarding data privacy

The California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA") is a new and important legislation designed to make data protection laws clearer and more accessible to Californian consumers. This new regulation was approved and adopted in 2018 and is enforceable as of January 1, 2020.

Memory Lane Games is committed to the new CCPA laws. Below we explain in plain language what is the CCPA, what information we collect about our users, and how this information is used.

Please note: The content of this page may change from time to time. We encourage you to revisit this page periodically to stay updated with the most recent adjustments to Memory Lane Games’s TCPA compliance.

What is the CCPA?

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) establishes and enhances consumer privacy rights for California Residents (as defined below) and imposes rules on businesses that handle their personal information. The CCPA grants consumers the right to know what personal information about them is collected by a business, as well as the purposes for which such personal information is used and to whom it is transferred or sold. Consumers have the right to obtain a copy of personal information collected about them by making “verified consumer requests.” Consumers then have the right to receive such information in a portable and readily usable format enabling them to transmit the information from one entity to another.

What if you’re not a resident of California?

As we mentioned above, the CCPA protects privacy by affording Californians the right to access, delete, and opt-out of the sale of their data (unless such data was collected and processed wholly outside of California and wasn’t sold in California). The CCPA protects “consumers,” which are defined as California residents. “Californian Consumers” extends to both California residents currently in the state and those traveling outside of the state. If you are not a consumer according to the CCPA, this is still information you should be aware of and understand but in this event the CCPA shall not apply to your information. For more information on these new changes and what they include, please visit the CCPA official page.

Californian Consumer’s Rights and Choices

The CCPA provides California Consumers with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes your CCPA rights (if you are a California Consumer and the CCPA applies to you) and explains how to exercise those rights.

Access to specific information and Data Portability Rights (as defined below):

You have the right to request us to disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:

  • The categories of personal information we collected about you.

  • The categories of sources of the personal information we collected about you.

  • Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information.

  • The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.

  • The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called Data Portability Request).

Deletion Request Rights

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:

  • Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you;

  • Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities;

  • Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;

  • Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law;

  • Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 seq.);

  • Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information's deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research's achievement, if you previously provided informed consent;

  • Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us;

  • Comply with a legal obligation;

  • Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by:

Emailing us at [email protected]

Only you or a person 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. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice 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.

  • 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. 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 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. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option (after providing us with contact details). Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request's receipt. 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.

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 permitted by the CCPA we will not:

  • Deny you good or services;

  • Charge you different price or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties;

  • Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services;

  • Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or a quality of goods or services.

However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your personal information’s value and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentives program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time.
