Right to be Informed:
You have the right to be informed about the collection and use of your personal data. Organizations must provide transparent and easily understandable information about how your data will be processed.

You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not your personal data is being processed, and if so, to access that data and receive relevant details about its processing.

You have the right to request the correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data held by organizations. If your data is incorrect or outdated, you can request its rectification.
Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten):
Under certain circumstances, you have the right to request the deletion of your personal data. This right applies, for example, when your data is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, or if you withdraw your consent and there is no other lawful basis for processing.
Right to Restrict Processing:
You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data. This means that organizations can store your data but cannot further process it, except in limited circumstances.
Right to Data Portability:
You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You can also request the transmission of that data to another data controller, where technically feasible.
Right to Object:
You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data, including profiling, based on legitimate interests, direct marketing, and scientific or historical research and statistics, unless there are compelling legitimate grounds for the processing.
Rights related to Automated Decision Making and Profiling:
You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, if such decisions significantly affect you. Exceptions may apply if the decision is necessary for entering into or performing a contract, is authorized by law, or is based on your explicit consent.
It's important to note that these rights may have limitations or exceptions based on specific circumstances and legal requirements. Additionally, organizations are obligated to respond to your requests within specific timeframes and provide you with clear information on how to exercise your rights.

Right to Opt-In (for Minors):
If you are under the age of 16, you have the right to opt-in or authorize the sale of your personal information. For minors under the age of 13, parental consent is required.

It's important to note that the CCPA applies to businesses that meet specific criteria, such as annual gross revenue, the amount of personal information collected, and whether they buy, sell, or share personal information for commercial purposes. The CCPA generally applies to businesses that operate in California or collect personal information from California residents.
To exercise your CCPA rights, you can typically submit a verifiable consumer request to the business, either online or by other specified means. Businesses are required to respond to your request within specific timeframes and are prohibited from discriminating against you for exercising your rights.
If you believe your rights under the CCPA have been violated, you may have the right to bring a legal action against the business in certain circumstances.
