WHAT ARE COOKIES?

A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a website, that site’s computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.

How Do We Use Information We Collect From Cookies?

Our cookies are used to differentiate you from other users in order to ensure that you receive personalized recommendations. In some cases, we also use cookies to prevent you from having to enter the same information repeatedly. Cookies, in conjunction with our web server’s log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people visiting our website and which parts of the site are most popular. This helps us gather feedback in order to constantly improve our Service. Cookies also allow us to anonymize and aggregate data for statistics and to measure key performance indicators. Cookies do not allow us to gather any personal information about you and we do not generally store any personal information that you provided to us in your cookies.

Can You Opt-Out Of Cookies?

Vidado also enters into data processing agreements and model clauses with its vendors whenever feasible and appropriate.

Emailing us at privacy@captricity.com

All requests must contain your full and complete legal name and any alias or other names or nicknames that you use; your contact information, including mailing address, email and phone number; and the description of your request.

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a VCR related to your personal information. You may also make a VCR on behalf of your minor child.

You may designate an authorized agent to make a request to access or a request to delete on your behalf. A response will be furnished to your authorized agent’s request if they submit proof that they are registered with the California Secretary of State to be able to act on your behalf, or submit evidence you have provided them with power of attorney pursuant to California Probate Code section 4000 to 4465. Authorized agents may not be provided with the response pertaining to the request if the authorized agents fail to submit a proof of authorization or are unable to verify their identity.

You may only make a VCR for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period.

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 VCR does not require you to create an account with us.

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

  • Response Timing and Format

We endeavor to respond to a VCR 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.

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 VCR’s request. 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 useable 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 VCR.

  • Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, 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 that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. 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. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt in consent, which you may revoke at any time.
