You have the right to request that Survivalix delete any personal information we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions permitted by law. We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:

Complete the transaction for which the personal information was collected, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or recall, provide goods or services requested by you, or reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you

Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing

California residents have the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of their personal information as those terms are defined under California law. While Survivalix does not sell personal information for monetary consideration, we may share certain information with third-party advertising partners to deliver targeted advertisements, which may be considered a "sale" or "share" under CCPA/CPRA.

You have the right to opt out of such sharing for targeted advertising purposes. To exercise this right, please see the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" section below.

Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information

Under the CPRA, you have the right to limit our use and disclosure of sensitive personal information to only what is necessary to perform the services or provide the goods reasonably expected by you. Survivalix does not use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes other than those permitted under CPRA without providing notice and an opportunity to limit such use.

Right to Non-Discrimination

You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for exercising any of your CCPA/CPRA privacy rights. We will not:

Deny you goods or services
Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties
Provide you a different level or quality of goods or 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

However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA/CPRA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels, provided that such incentives are reasonably related to the value of your personal information. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your personal information's value and contain written terms that describe the program's material aspects. You have the right to withdraw from any financial incentive program at any time.

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

California residents have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of their personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising (targeted advertising). While Survivalix does not sell personal information in the traditional sense of exchanging data for money, we may share certain information with advertising partners and analytics providers in ways that could be considered a "sale" or "share" under California law.

Categories of Personal Information That May Be Shared
