Requests

You can make requests related to your California privacy rights by email to support@carnam.net or in writing to Stephen J. Carnam, P.O. Box 231039, San Diego, California 92193, United States of America. Please be aware that I do not accept or process requests through other means (e.g., via fax or social media).

I will review the information provided and may request additional information to ensure I am interacting with the correct individual. If you have an online account with me, you may be required to log-in to your account for identity verification. If you do not have an account with me, additional information to verify your identity may be required by law before I may take action upon such a request. This additional information may vary depending on the nature of your request and/or the nature of the information about which your request relates. In some cases, I may also be required by law to obtain a signed declaration under penalty of perjury from you that you are the subject of the request being made. If I suspect fraudulent or malicious activity on or from your account, I will delay taking action on your request until I can appropriately verify your identity and the request as authentic.

By law, I am not required to collect personal information that I otherwise would not collect in the ordinary course of my business, retain personal information for longer than I would otherwise retain such information in the ordinary course of my business, or re-identify or otherwise link information that is not maintained in a manner that would be considered personal information. If I have not requested specific additional information from you to verify your request, please do not send such information.

I generally will aim to avoid requesting additional information from you for the purposes of verification. However, if I cannot reasonably verify your identity or more information is needed for security or fraud-prevention purposes, I may consider any of the following factors, alone or in combination, in requesting additional information:

The type, sensitivity, and value of the personal information collected and maintained about the consumer, as applicable law requires a more stringent verification process for sensitive or valuable personal information;
The risk of harm to the consumer posed by any unauthorized access or deletion;
The likelihood that fraudulent or malicious actors would seek the personal information;
Whether the personal information to be provided by the consumer to verify their identity is sufficiently robust to protect against fraudulent requests or being spoofed or fabricated;
The manner in which the business interacts with the consumer;
Available technology for verification; and
Other factors that may be reasonable in the circumstances, are consistent with industry practice, are recommended by California government officials, or which may be required by law or regulation following the effective date of this Privacy Policy.

If your request is regarding household information, the same verification steps above are required before I can provide you with aggregate household information. For me to process a request for access to or deletion of specific pieces of information regarding your household, all members of the household must make the request, and I must be able to verify each household member.

In some cases, I may not have sufficient information about you or your household to be able to verify your identity or sufficiently differentiate you from another consumer or household to the degree of certainty required by law, in which case, I will not be able to act upon your request. In such cases, it may be unlikely that I would be able to identify you or your household in the future without collecting significantly more information or seeking to re-identify de-identified information. At this time, I do not intend to take such steps in response to a request made pursuant to this Privacy Policy and applicable law does not require that I do so. If, in the future, I determine a reasonable method to identify you or your household absent such steps, I will provide an update to you through this Privacy Policy and in response to any such request at that time.

Information that you submit for the purpose of allowing me to verify your identity in furtherance of a consumer-related or household-related request pursuant to California law will only be used by me, and my service providers if any, for that purpose and no other. Except where I am required by law to maintain such information for record-keeping purposes, I will take steps to delete any new personal information collected for the purpose of verification as soon as practical after processing your request.

Please also be aware that making any such request does not ensure complete or comprehensive removal or deletion of Personal Information or content you may have posted, and there may be circumstances in which the law does not require or allow me to fulfill your request, including, for example, where fulfilling your request may infringe upon the rights and freedoms of other consumers.

I reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee or take other appropriate action in response to requests from a consumer or household that are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of their repetitive character.

You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf pursuant to applicable law. I accept documentation of your designation in the form of a valid power of attorney and/or a notarized statement. You must submit evidence of your designation of an authorized agent in writing to: Stephen J. Carnam, P.O. Box 231039, San Diego, California 92193, United States of America. I may require verification of your authorized agent in addition to the information for verification above for consumers and households.

Notice of Financial Incentive

With regard to my education discount program, I may offer financial incentives to consumers based upon the retention of sale of a consumer’s personal information calculated based on a good-faith estimate of the value of the consumer’s data, which forms the basis for offering such financial incentives. The financial incentive offered is a discount on the price of some Carnam Products and Services, based on affiliation with an employer group or educational institution with which I may partner. The categories of personal information that are implicated by the financial incentive or price or service difference include your place of employment or educational institution. You may choose to provide an email address associated with your employer or educational institution, which I will validate manually.

The method I use to calculate the value of a consumer’s data is that my calculation used in good-faith of the likelihood of increased sales of Carnam Products and Services to Consumers at your place of employment or educational institution.

You may enroll in or withdraw from my financial incentive program at any time by updating your preferences by email at support@carnam.net, or in writing at Stephen J. Carnam, P.O. Box 231039, San Diego, California 92193, United States of America.
