  • Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity; or prosecute those responsible for that activity.

We are not obligated to make an information disclosure or carry out a deletion request pursuant to the CPRA if we cannot verify that the person making the request is the person about whom we collected information, or is someone authorized to act on such person’s behalf.

Any personal information we collect from you in order to verify your identity in connection with your CPRA request will be used solely for the purposes of verification.
