CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

The following provisions relate to those certain rights afforded to residents of the State of California.

The 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.

Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights

You have the right to request that Stitch 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 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.


Deletion Request Rights

You have the right to request that Stitch 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 provider(s) 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.

3.   Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.

4.   Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.

5.   Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.).

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 access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by e-mail at hello@Stitchvideo.tv. 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.

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 verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 45 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

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 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 portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily usable 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.

Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights

If you are 16 years of age or older, you have the right to direct us to not sell your personal information at any time (the "right to opt-out"). We do not sell the personal information of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years of age, unless we receive affirmative authorization (the "right to opt-in") from either the consumer who is between 13 and 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a consumer less than 13 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to personal information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time.

Other California Privacy Rights

California's "Shine the Light" law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our Website that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to hello@stitchvideo.tv

DATA RETENTION

We may retain the data Stitch processes for as long as necessary to provide the Services to our Clients, including without limitation, as reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations and/or protect our legitimate interests, but in no event longer than ninety (90) days.

DATA SECURITY

Stitch has implemented measures designed to secure the data it collects from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure, and has employed industry standard procedures, protocols, hardware, and software intended to ensure the protection of the data Stitch processes.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect the data Stitch collects and/or processes, we cannot guarantee the security of such data transmitted via the Services. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on any third-party website, or service.

CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, you should not provide any information about yourself to any publisher without the consent of a parent or guardian, including your name, address, telephone number, email address, or any screen name or user name you may use. If we learn we have unknowingly collected or received personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will immediately delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please contact us at hello@Stitchvideo.tv.
