The California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA) provides consumers (California residents) with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.
**Categories of Personal Information We Collect**
- Identifiers, such as your name, phone number, email address, social media handle, and unique identifiers (like IP address) tied to your browser or device.
- Characteristics of protected classifications under state or federal law, such as gender and age.

- Other personal information you provide, including opinions, preferences, goals and previous meditation experience and other personal information contained in product reviews, surveys, or communications. Inferences drawn from the above, such as product interests, and purchasing insights.
Depending on the circumstances and which Service you use, we have “sold” (as defined in the CCPA) the following categories of your Personal Information in the preceding twelve (12) months:
- Identifiers
- Protected characteristics
- Commercial information
- Geolocation data
- Internet or other electronic network activity information
**Business or Commercial Purposes for Which We May Use Your Information**
- Performing or providing our services, such as to maintain accounts, provide customer service, process orders and transactions, and verify customer information.
- Improving and maintaining our Services, such as by improving our Services and developing new products and services.
- Debugging, such as to identify and repair errors and other functionality issues.
- Communicating with you about marketing and other relationship or transactional messages.
- Analyzing usage, such as by monitoring trends and activities in connection with use of our Services.
- Personalizing your online experience, such as by tailoring the content and ads you see on our Services and on other platforms based on your preferences, interests, and browsing behavior.
- Legal reasons, such as to help detect and protect against security incidents, or other malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity.
**Parties With Whom Information May Be Shared**

- Third parties with whom you consent to sharing your information, such as with social media services or academic researchers.
- Our advertisers and marketing partners, such as partners that help determine the popularity of content, deliver advertising and content targeted to your interests, and assist in better understanding your online activity.

**Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights**
You have the right to request that CHRV, LLC disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, 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 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.
**Non-Discrimination**
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:

- Provide you with a different level of quality or goods of 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.
**Opt-Out**
California residents also have the right to opt-out of the “sale” of their Personal Information. We put “sale” in quotation marks because the CCPA considers some transfers of Personal Information to third parties in exchange for value as “sales,” even if no money changes hands, such as when online identifiers, Device IDs, and other information is shared with Third Party Businesses to further their own commercial purposes such as generating profiles about individuals.
California residents can exercise this right here: Do Not Sell My Personal Information. If we have actual knowledge that a California resident is younger than 16, we will request opt-in consent before selling their Personal Information. Note that we can still share Personal Information with third parties if those transfers aren’t “sales,” such as with our Service Providers.
**Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights**
To exercise the access, portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:
- Emailing us at info@spamsmash.com
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. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.
You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 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. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that specific account.
We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
**Shine the Light**
California’s "Shine the Light" law, Civil Code Section 1798.83, gives California customers the right to prevent our disclosure of their Personal Information to third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes, and requires certain businesses to respond to requests from California customers asking about the business' practices related to disclosing Personal Information to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Alternately, such businesses may have in place a policy not to disclose Personal Information of customers to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes if the customer has exercised an option to opt-out of such information-sharing. We have such a policy in place. As discussed above, California residents can exercise their right to opt-out here: Do Not Sell My Personal Information [<<<INSERT LINK].
**Online Erasure**
California’s "Online Erasure" law, Business and Professions Code Sections 22580-22582, requires operators of certain websites and online services to allow registered users who are under the age of 18 and residents of California to request removal of Content they post. If you fit that description and posted Content on a section of our Service that is directed to minors, you may request removal of the Content by contacting us by email or as described at the end of this document. In response to your request, we may elect to make the Content invisible to other users and the public (rather than deleting it entirely), in which case the Content may remain on servers we control and/or may be publicly available elsewhere if a third party copied and reposted the Content.
