CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS
California Consumer Privacy Act
The California Consumer Privacy Act, or CCPA, gives you specific rights as a California resident. The law provides you with the right to know what information we collect about you, how we use it and how long we retain it and to access, delete, and correct that information within certain limitations, to tell us not to sell or share personal information about you, and to not be discriminated against for invoking these rights.
Your Right to Know
We describe the personal information we collect from Visible merch store site visitors and customers, and how we use that information, in this privacy policy.
The information we collect varies depending on your interactions with us. We may collect these categories of personal information:
Our policy is to retain personal information only as long as it is needed to provide service and for other purposes described in this Policy, and delete, dispose or de-identify it when no longer needed. We may incorporate personal information into different types of records in order to provide our services and meet our obligations to you. For example, your name could be part of your account record and financial records for legal and tax compliance. Each type of record may be retained for a different time period depending on its purpose. We have established criteria for how long to keep different types of records, like customer accounts, content, or browsing history records. Personal Information may be kept longer for legal, tax audit, investigative, and/or security purposes.
We use the information we collect for business and commercial purposes as well as disclose it to third parties, such as vendors and partners and to law enforcement, among others, as detailed elsewhere in this policy. “Business and commercial purposes” includes providing services to you; communicating with you and providing customer service; personalizing your experiences; improving our services; providing marketing and advertising; debugging; auditing our processes and services; short-term transient uses; research; and security, fraud, and legal compliance purposes.
