BigRentz, Inc. may share your personal information with a third party for a business purpose, including without limitation advertising and marketing on our website and elsewhere based on users’ online activities over time and across different sites, services and devices.  We also will share your personal information with third parties outside of our organization as necessary to fulfill your requests, e.g., to fulfill orders.

We share your personal information with the following categories of third parties:

Examples of sharing personal information

We use an outside shipping company to ship orders, and a credit card processing company to bill users for goods and services. These companies are not permitted to retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes beyond filling your order.

We partner with another party to provide specific services. When the user signs up for these services, we will share names, or other contact information that is necessary for the third party to provide these services.

California Privacy Rights

California law provides consumers who are California residents with specific rights regarding their personal information.  This section describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.
 

Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights

You have the right to request that BigRentz, Inc. disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months.  Upon receipt of a verified request, we will disclose to you:

• Disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained.

Deletion Request Rights

You have the right to request that BigRentz, Inc. 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:

1. 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.
2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.

5. Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act.
6. 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.
7. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
8. Comply with a legal obligation.
9. 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 rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:

• Calling (888) 325-5172
• Emailing us at Support@bigrentz.com

Only you, or a person 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.

We will require an authorized representative making a request on your behalf to provide a valid power of attorney, the requester’s valid government issued identification, and the authorized agent’s valid government issued identification.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request twice in a 12-month period.  The 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 to allow us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

While you are not required to create an account with us to make a request, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information about that specific account.

We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (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.

Any response we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding our receipt of the verifiable consumer request.  If applicable, the response will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request.  For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide you personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another without hindrance.

If you choose to exercise your rights, we won’t deny you goods or services, charge you different prices, provide different quality of services unless those differences are related to your information, or suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

BigRentz, Inc. may refuse a consumer request or charge a reasonable fee to comply with a request if it determines that a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.  If BigRentz, Inc. makes this determination, it will promptly notify you in writing along with the reason for its decision.
