California Privacy Rights That May Apply
Subject to applicable law and exceptions, California residents may have the following rights:
- Right to Know: Request information about the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected, the sources of that information, the purposes for using it, and the categories of recipients.
- Right to Access: Request a copy of eligible personal information.
- Right to Correct: Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
- Right to Delete: Request deletion of certain personal information.
- Right to Opt Out: Request to stop a qualifying sale or sharing of personal information.
- Right to Limit: Request limits on certain uses or disclosures of sensitive personal information.
- Right to Non-Discrimination: Exercise applicable privacy rights without unlawful discrimination.
Not every right applies in every situation. Legal exceptions may allow or require certain information to be retained or used.
Sale or Sharing of Personal Information
California law gives the words “sell” and “share” specific meanings. A disclosure does not always need to involve a direct payment to fall within these definitions.
Whether an activity involving a website provider qualifies as a sale or sharing may depend on how the provider uses the information and its agreement with C.T. Brayton.
If C.T. Brayton engages in an activity that qualifies as a sale or sharing and the CCPA applies, California residents may have the right to opt out.
The website’s Cookie Preferences tool manages the cookie categories currently listed in that tool. It should not be treated as a legal sale-or-sharing opt-out unless the website specifically states that it serves that purpose.
Browser Privacy Signals
Some browsers and extensions can send Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signals.
As of the Last Updated date, this website is not configured to process these signals automatically. You may still submit a privacy request using the methods below.
This disclosure does not limit any rights available under applicable law.
