Your Privacy Rights

The CCPA provides consumers (i.e., Californian 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 Prescient 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:

Deletion Request Rights

You have the right to request that Prescient delete any of your Personal Information that we have collected and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete your Personal Information from our records. We will also direct our service providers to delete your Personal Information from their records.

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 the Personal Information was collected, provide a good or service requested by the consumer, or reasonably anticipated within the context of a business’s ongoing business relationship with the consumer, or otherwise perform a contract between the business and the consumer.
(2) Detect security incidents; protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent or illegal activity; or prosecute those responsible for that activity.
(3) Identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
(4) Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise his or her right of free speech, or exercise another right provided for by law.
(5) Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act pursuant to Chapter 3.6 (commencing with Section 1546) of Title 12 of Part 2 of the Penal Code.
(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 business’ deletion of the information is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of such research, if the consumer has provided informed consent.
(7) Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with the expectations of the consumer based on the consumer’s relationship with the business.
(8) Comply with a legal obligation.
(9) Otherwise use the consumer’s Personal Information internally in a lawful manner that is compatible with the context in which the consumer provided the information.

Verifiable Consumer Requests

Only you, or a person registered with the Californian 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:

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.
We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requester’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 receipt. If we require more time (up to ninety (90) days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing within the forty-five (45) days.

We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically. Any disclosures of information we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding receipt of the verifiable consumer request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.

If provided electronically, the information will be provided in a portable and, to the extent technically feasible, in a readily useable format that allows the consumer to transmit this information to another entity without hindrance. This will also be the format for data portability requests.

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 reasonable fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. We will not:

Retention

Prescient retains Personal Information, as necessary, for the duration of the relevant business relationship or activity. We may also retain Personal Information for longer than the duration of the business relationship or activity to: protect ourselves against legal claims, use the data for analysis or historical recordkeeping, or comply with our information management policies and schedules.

International Data Transfers

Prescient has offices in the United Kingdom and in India to which we may transfer Personal Information from our offices in the United States. Our legal entities have executed legally binding agreements to ensure adequate safeguards of these transfers.

Security

We use technical, organizational and administrative security measures to protect any Personal Information we hold, transmit, store or otherwise process from accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration, or from unauthorized disclosure or access.

Children

We do not intend to collect or solicit Personal Information from anyone under the age of 13. The only exception to this is when we conduct research under the legal basis of explicit consent.
