Welcome to the Precisely California Notice At Collection And Privacy Notice
Last Updated: June 28, 2024
This Precisely California Notice at Collection and Privacy Notice (“Precisely California Privacy Notice”) supplements the information contained in our Global Privacy Notice regarding our data processing practices. We have adopted this Precisely California Privacy Notice to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended (“CCPA”). Please take the time to read and understand this Precisely California Privacy Notice as well as our Global Privacy Notice, which includes important information regarding how we collect, use, and disclose your personal information. Capitalized terms used in this Precisely California Privacy Notice have the meanings set forth in our Global Privacy Notice.
Scope
This Precisely California Privacy Notice is delivered on behalf of Precisely and governs the personal information we collect from California residents (“you”), including when you use our Site, the Services, and in connection with data that we may make available or license to our Customers when providing Data to our Customers. This Precisely California Privacy Notice applies to us in our role as a “business” under the CCPA and does not apply to personal information provided to us by our Customers, which we process pursuant to their instructions. When processing personal information for our Customers, we act as a “service provider” for purposes of the CCPA and the terms of our processing are set forth in the relevant agreement(s) between us and our Customers.
Please note that there may be personal information that this Precisely California Privacy Notice does not cover. In some cases, that personal information may not be subject to the CCPA. In other cases, a different privacy notice may apply. Accordingly, this Precisely California Privacy Notice and/or the California privacy rights set forth below may not apply to you or to all of your personal information. For example, the following types of personal information are not covered by this California Privacy Notice:
- Personal information we have from California residents in their capacity as current or former employees, personnel, or independent contractors of our company.
- Personal information we have from California residents who are emergency contacts of, or benefits recipients related to, current or former employees, personnel, or independent contractors of our company.
- Personal information we have from California residents in their capacity as current or former job applicants or prospective job applicants to our company.
In addition, the following is not personal information for purposes of the CCPA (i) lawfully obtained, truthful information that is a matter of public concern; (ii) deidentified consumer information about California residents; and (iii) aggregate consumer information about California residents (in each case, as those terms are used in the CCPA).
In connection with offering the Services, we may purchase or license information from various data suppliers, and license or otherwise provide that information to our Customers. This includes information regarding the characteristics associated with residential and commercial addresses and other physical locations, such as whether an address is located in a flood zone, or what the ratings are of the schools assigned to a given address. We may also receive information, which is generally publicly available, from Congressional records, and that identifies commercial and residential property owners. Such information is generally publicly available information. Publicly available information is not personal information for purposes of the CCPA.
This Precisely California Privacy Notice does not apply to such information.

We may need additional information from you to verify your request. We may need additional information from you to match the information we already have about you in order to verify your request. If you provide us with new personal information that we did not already have about you, we will use it solely for the purpose of verifying your request. We will let you know via email if we need more information from you to verify your request. Please reply to our requests promptly.
We will communicate with you via email. We will use the email address you provided when submitting your request.
If we cannot verify your identity, we will let you know.
Responding To Your Requests
We aim to promptly verify and respond to your requests to know, access the specific pieces of personal information we have about you, delete and correct inaccuracies in your personal information within 45 days of receipt, but may require a total of 90 days to respond to your requests. If we require additional time beyond the initial 45 days and that time is reasonably necessary, we will let you know within the first 45 days. We respond to requests you submit to us to opt-out of the sale of your personal information within 15 business days.
We do not ordinarily charge a fee for our response to your requests. However, we may do so if your request(s) are excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that charging a fee is warranted, we will let you know and will provide you with an estimate of the associated costs of responding to your request(s).
If we determine that we cannot or will not take the action that you requested, we will let you know. We will inform you of our reasons for not taking action and any rights you may have to appeal the decision.
We will respond to your requests via email. We will contact you at the email address you provided when submitting your request(s). If you would like to receive responses to a request to know or access personal information via postal mail rather than email, please let us know when submitting your request(s).
Limitations
The CCPA does not apply in full to all personal information we collect from California residents. As set out in “Scope” above, the CCPA is not fully applicable to some personal information collected from California residents. Therefore, even if you are a California resident and submit a verifiable request, we may not be required to comply with your request.
We are only required to respond to certain requests twice in any 12-month period. We are not required to provide you access to specific pieces of personal information more than twice in any 12-month period. Similarly, we are not required to comply with your “requests to know” more than twice in any twelve-month period.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) Signals
We rely on a third-party service provider to implement a tool in an effort to recognize and honor “do not track” and Global Privacy Control signals as requests to opt-out of “sharing” your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes (as such term is defined in the CCPA).
