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 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, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law, or otherwise perform our contract with you.

  • Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with California consumer expectations based on your relationship with us, such as future field campaigns or product safety issues.
  • Comply with a legal obligation.
  • Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

In addition, if you provide us with a verifiable consumer request to correct inaccurate personal information that we maintain about you, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to correct such information in accordance with your instructions.

Exercising Your CPL Rights and Choices – Exercising Access, Data Portability, Deletion and Correction Rights – California Consumers.

To exercise the access, data portability, deletion and correction rights described above, you should submit a verifiable consumer request to us by one of the following methods:

  • Emailing us at info@goEBT.com.
  • By postal mail at 1200 Williams Drive, Suite 1200, Marietta, GA 30066.
  • Accessing your online account that you maintain with us.
  • By calling us at [TELEPHONE NUMBER].

Only you, or someone legally authorized 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 a minor child for whom you are a parent or legal guardian.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a twelve (12) month period. The verifiable consumer request must provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative, which may include:

  • Your name
  • Your address
  • Additional information depending upon the type of request and the sensitivity of the information involved with such request
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail to enable us to properly understand, evaluate and respond to such request.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or your authority to make the request and confirm that the personal information involved with the request relates to you.

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. However, we will consider requests made through a password-protected online account that you maintain with us to be sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that online account, provided such online account functionality is then made available by us on the Platform.

We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

Exercising Your CPL Rights and Choices – Response Timing and Format – California Consumers

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

If you have an online account with us, we may deliver our written response to that online account, provided that such online account functionality is then made available by us on the Platform. If you do not have an online account with us, or such functionality is not available for your online account we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

If we’re unable to comply with your request, the response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with the request. 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.

  1. Your EU Privacy Rights

Persons who are residents of the member countries of the European Union (“EU”) or other data subjects covered by the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation, (EU) 2016/679 (the “GDPR”), have certain additional privacy rights under applicable law. The following provisions of this Policy provide an overview of these additional rights.

Legal Bases for Processing Personal Information of European Union Data Subjects

When processing your personal information, the Company may rely on one or more of the following legal bases (or other available legal grounds), depending on the circumstances:

  • Legitimate Interests. We may process your personal information where the Company has a legitimate interest in such processing for managing, operating or promoting our business, and that legitimate interest is not overridden by your interests, fundamental rights or freedoms.
  • We may process your personal information where the Company has obtained your consent to the processing.
  • Contractual Necessity. We may process your personal information where such processing is necessary in connection with any contract that the Company has with you.
  • Legal Requirements. We may process your personal information where such processing is required by applicable law.

Disclosures to Third Parties of European Data Subject Personal Information.

Your personal information will not be disclosed to third parties except for where it is necessary for fulfillment of the Company’s obligations to you or where the Company is obliged or permitted to do so by law (including, without limitation, through the terms of any agreement the Company may have with you), or where the Company makes disclosures that are otherwise consistent with the uses described in this Policy.

The Company may also disclose any information (including personal information) relating to you to law enforcement authorities or any regulatory or government authority in response to any request including requests in connection with the investigation of any suspected illegal activities.

The Company reserves the right to transfer any personal information the Company has about you in the event the Company sells or transfers all or a portion of our business or assets, or merges with another organization. Should such a sale, transfer or merger occur, the Company will use reasonable efforts seeking to require that the transferee uses personal information you have provided to the Company in a manner that

is consistent with this Policy.

We will not sell, resell or lease your personal information to any third parties but the Company may, if required for the purpose(s) for which your personal information was collected and processed, share it with the Company partners and/or service providers to enable them to provide their services to the Company or to you, as applicable. The foregoing are in addition to the other uses described elsewhere in this Policy.

Security of Personal Information of European Citizens

The Company has policies and technical and organizational measures in place which are intended to safeguard and protect your personal information against unauthorized access, accidental loss, improper use and disclosure. However, you should be aware that information transmitted over the internet is not completely secure because of the nature of the internet and that systems and measures used to secure information are not flawless. For these reasons, although the Company will use reasonable efforts to protect your personal information, the Company does not warrant the security of personal information transmitted to the Company or stored by the Company, and personal information that is transmitted to the Company by you electronically is done at your own risk.

Retention of Personal Information of European Data Subjects.

Our policy is to retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the Company collected such personal information, including for the purposes of satisfying any professional, legal, accounting or reporting requirements to which the Company is subject. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, the Company considers the scope, nature and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the personal information, the purposes for which the Company collected and processed your personal information and whether the Company can achieve those purposes through other means, and any applicable legal and professional requirements.

Your Rights as a European Data Subject.

You have a number of rights concerning your personal information that the Company holds and uses, including the following:

  • Right of Access. You have the right to be informed about what personal information the Company holds about you and to a copy of this personal information.
  • Right to Rectification. You have the right to have any inaccurate personal information which the Company holds about you updated or corrected.

  • Right to Withdraw Consent. Where processing of personal information is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw such consent at any time.
  • Right to Object. Where the Company relies on our legitimate interests to process your personal information, you have the right to object to such use and the Company is required to discontinue such processing unless the Company can demonstrate an overriding legitimate interest in such processing.
  • Right to Restriction. You have the right to request that the Company stop using your personal information in certain circumstances including if you believe that the personal information the Company holds about you is inaccurate or that the Company’s use of your personal information is unlawful. If you validly exercise this right, the Company will store your personal information and will not carry out any other processing until the issue is resolved.
