We may deny your disclosure and/or deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:

- Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with California Data Subject expectations based on your relationship with us;
- Comply with a legal obligation, such as other privacy or data protection statutes and regulations that place restrictions on our ability to disclose information including, but not limited to, the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act, PCI Data Security Standards, and state privacy acts; and
- Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.
To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable California Data Subject request to us by sending us an email at [email protected] or calling us at 1-855-980-0357.
Only you or a person registered with the California Secretary of State, that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable California Data Subject request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable California Data Subject request on behalf of your minor child.
You may only make a verifiable California Data Subject request for access or data portability twice within a twelve (12) month period. The verifiable California Data Subject request must:
- Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative; and
- Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
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 verifiable California Data Subject request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable California Data Subject request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
We aspire to respond to a verifiable California Data Subject request within forty-five (45) days of receipt of the request. If we require more time (up to ninety (90) days) we will inform you of the reason(s) why an extension is needed and how long we anticipate the period to be. Any disclosure we provide will only cover the twelve (12) month period preceding the receipt of your request. If applicable, the response may provide the reasons why we cannot comply with your request. 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 verifiable California Data Subject request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request. We reserve the right to refuse to respond to verifiable California Data Subject requests that are excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded.
Right of Non-Discrimination.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. We will not take any of the following actions against you in response to an exercise of your rights:
- 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.
Privacy Notice for EU Residents
This section governs personal data, information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, gathered from data subjects located in the EU only.
General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) Information
The following information describes our commitments to you under EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).
The GDPR makes a distinction between organizations that process personal data for their own purposes (known as “Data Controllers”) and organizations that process personal data on behalf of other organizations (known as “Data Processors”). LCvista only acts as a Data Controller for very limited types of data, such as the information you enter when you register an account with us or the information you submit when purchasing our software. LCvista is the Data Controller for information provided by our website visitors who might complete online forms. LCvista is the Data Processor for information provided by our customers when LCvista enters into a business relationship to provide contractually agreed-upon software and services to their employees.
When We Act as a Data Controller
When we process your data as a Data Controller, the following applies.
We collect, use, and share your personal data where we are satisfied that we have an appropriate legal basis to do this. This may be because:
- Consent: Our use of your personal data is in accordance with your consent. If we process your personal data based on consent, you will be asked for said consent at or before the time of data collection. You may withdraw your consent at any time, and will not suffer any detriment for withdrawing your consent.
- Contract: Our use of your personal data is to fulfill a contract between you and us.
- Legal Obligation: Our use of your personal data is necessary to comply with a relevant legal or regulatory obligation that we have (for example, where we are required to disclose personal data to a court, or store information due to federal financial regulations); or
- Legitimate Interest: Our use of your personal data is for a legitimate interest of ours, such as fraud prevention and ensuring our network’s security.
Subject to certain exemptions, and in some cases dependent upon the processing activity we are undertaking, EU residents have certain rights in relation to their personal data:
- Right to Access. You have the right to access your personal data that is being processed; specifically you may request to view your personal data and obtain copies of your personal data.
- Right to Rectification. You have the right to request modifications to your personal data if it is out of date or inaccurate.
- Right of Erasure. You have the right to ask that we delete your personal data. However, we are not required to comply with your request to erase personal data if the processing of your personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
- Right to Restriction of Processing. Under certain circumstances, you have the right to request we restrict processing your personal data You have the right to restrict the use of your personal data. However, we can continue to use your personal data following a request for restriction (a) where we have your consent; (b) to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (c) to protect the rights of another natural or legal person.
- Right to Data Portability. To the extent that we process your information (i) based on your consent or under a contract; and (ii) through automated means, you have the right to receive such personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format, or you can ask to have it transferred directly to another data controller.
- Right to Object. You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data. However, we may still process your personal data if we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
- Right to Object to Automated Processing. You have the right to object to decisions based on automated processing, such as where a computer assesses factors in the data we collect about you and makes a determination. We do not currently make any decisions based on automated processing.
We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to provide you with our services, or for other important purposes such as complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements.
We ask that you please attempt to resolve any issues regarding your data protection or requests with us first before contacting the relevant supervisory authority. If you would like to exercise any of the rights described above, please send a request to [email protected]. In your message, please indicate the right you would like to exercise and the information that you would like to access, review, correct, or delete.
We may ask you for additional information to confirm your identity and for security purposes, before disclosing the requested personal data.
We may not always be able to fully address your request, for example if it would impact the duty of confidentiality we owe to others, or if we are legally entitled to deal with the request in a different way.
When LCvista Acts as a Data Processor
Where we process your data in our capacity as a Data Processor, the processing of your data will not be governed by the foregoing provisions (“When We Act As Data Controller”), but you can contact the Data Controller directly to learn about their processing of your information and to exercise your rights, or we will forward your request directly to them at your request.
LCvista’s “privacy by design” approach requires that our default user data protection levels be at the highest setting by default. In the unlikely event of breach, LCvista will notify data subjects and Supervisory Authorities (SAs) in the EU according to procedures provided in GDPR Articles 33 and 34.
Lawful Requests
LCvista may be required to disclose personal information pursuant to lawful requests made by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
Inquiries and Complaints
We take safeguarding your privacy very seriously. If you wish to verify, correct or delete any personal information we have collected, or if you have any questions or concerns, or if you have any complaints, please contact [email protected].
Notice
When LCvista collects personal information from individuals, it will inform the individual of the purpose for which it collects and uses the personal information and the types of non-agent third parties to which LCvista discloses or may disclose that information. LCvista shall provide the individual with the choice and means for limiting the use and disclosure of their personal information. Notice will be provided in clear and conspicuous language when individuals are first asked to provide personal information to LCvista, or as soon as practicable thereafter, and in any event before LCvista uses or discloses personal information for a purpose other than for which it was originally collected.
In instances in which LCvista is not the controller or collector of the personal information, but only a processor, it has no means of providing individuals with the choice and means for limiting the use and disclosure of their personal information or providing notices when individuals are first asked to provide personal information to LCvista. In such instances, LCvista will comply with the instructions of the controller of such information; provide appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, and to the extent appropriate, assist the controller in responding to individuals exercising their rights under the Principles.
Choice
In those instances in which LCvista collects personal information from individuals, it will offer individuals the opportunity to choose (opt out) whether their personal information is (1) to be disclosed to a third party or (2) to be used for a purpose other than the purpose for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individual.
Disclosures to Third Parties
In those instances in which LCvista collects personal information from individuals, prior to disclosing personal information to a third party, LCvista shall notify the individual of such disclosure and allow the individual the choice to opt out of such disclosure. LCvista shall ensure that any agent third party for which personal information may be disclosed subscribes to these principles or are subject to law providing the same level of privacy protection as is required by these principles and agree in writing to provide an adequate level of privacy protection.
Data Security
LCvista shall take reasonable steps to protect personal information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. LCvista has put in place appropriate physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration or destruction. LCvista cannot guarantee the security of information on or transmitted via the Internet.
Data Integrity
LCvista shall only process personal information in a way that is compatible with and relevant for the purpose for which it was collected or authorized by those who provided the information. To the extent necessary for those purposes, LCvista shall take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information is accurate, complete, current and reliable for its intended use.
Access
In those instances in which LCvista collects personal information directly from individuals, LCvista shall allow those individuals access to their personal information and allow the individual to correct, amend or delete inaccurate information, except where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to the privacy of the individual in the case in question or where the rights of persons other than the individual would be violated.
