Your Rights and Choices.
The CCPA provides California residents
with specific rights regarding their personal information. The following

Right to Know and Access to Specific
Information.
You have the right to request that we
disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your
Personal Information over the past twelve (12) months; in other words, the
“right to know.” Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request
(see Exercising Knowledge, Access, and Deletion Rights), subject to certain
permitted exceptions, we will disclose to you:
The categories of personal information we collected about you.
- The categories of sources for 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 a data portability
request). - If we sold or disclosed your personal
information for a business purpose, two separate lists disclosing: - sales, identifying the personal
information categories that each category of recipient purchased; and - disclosures for a business purpose,
identifying the personal information categories that each category of
recipient obtained.
You have a right to request a copy of the
Personal Information that we have collected about you during the past 12
months.
Right to Request Correction.
You can ask us to correct inaccurate Personal
Information that we have collected about you.
Deletion Request Rights.
You have the right to request that KAC
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 (see Exercising Knowledge, Access, and Deletion
Rights), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your
personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.
Without limitation, we may deny your deletion request if retaining the
information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:
- Complete the transaction for which the
personal information was collected, fulfill the terms of a written
warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law,
provide a good or service requested by you, or reasonably anticipated by you
within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or
otherwise perform a contract with you. - Help to ensure security and integrity
to the extent the use of the consumer’s personal information is reasonably
necessary and proportionate for those purposes. - 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 et. 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 and compatible with the context in which you provided the
information. - Comply with a legal obligation.
Automated
Decision Making and Profiling.
We do not engage in automated decision
making or profiling performed on personal information.
Exercising Knowledge, Access, and
Deletion Rights.
To exercise the knowledge, access, and
deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to
us by either:
Emailing us at privacypolicy-kac@kowa.com ; or
Calling us at Toll Free: (800) 966-5692 from US, +1-310-327-1913 from outside
of US.
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. However,
we may need to verify your authorized agent’s identity and authority to act on
your behalf. We may require a copy of a
valid power of attorney given to your authorized agent pursuant to applicable
law. If you have not provided your agent with such a power of attorney, we may
ask you to take additional steps permitted by law to verify that your request
is authorized, such as by providing your agent with written and signed
permission to exercise your California privacy rights on your behalf, the information
we request to verify your identity, and confirmation that you have given the
authorized agent permission to submit the request. You may also make a
verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. You may only make a
verifiable consumer request for knowledge or access twice within a twelve (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 consumer
request within applicable time limits. 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. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the twelve (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 access requests, we will select a format to provide your
personal information that is readily useable 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 goods or services.
- Charge you different prices 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
quality of goods or services.
