POLICIES
PRIVACY NOTICE
Published on: 23 May 2018
Last updated on: 18 May 2023
This is the Privacy Notice for the F5 and NGINX brands. It explains the way that
F5, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively "F5") handle information about you
that is collected in the contexts described below.
* Management of our customer relationships, including through accounts you set
up with F5.
* Sales, including through resellers, distributors, partners, and third-party
marketplaces.
* Our certification programs.
* Our training programs, including F5 University.
* Our events.
* Our marketing and advertising programs.
* Our investor relations.
* Management of our websites and apps in relation to any of the above.
Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and other similar laws,
F5 is considered a “controller” of that data because F5 determines how that data
will be handled. F5, Inc. is typically the primary controller within the F5
group of companies.
This Privacy Notice also applies to personal data F5 receives in the context of
providing its services (the “Services”). For many Services, F5 acts only as a
“processor” (not a controller) with respect to the personal data it collects
through the Service. This means that F5 handles the personal data solely
pursuant to the relevant customer’s instructions, unless legally required to do
otherwise. The Service-specific Privacy Statements below explain F5’s role as a
controller or processor with respect to particular Services and provide
additional privacy information.

1. What types of Personal Data does F5 collect?
We collect, store, and use the following categories of personal data:
* Contact details and professional details, such as name, email address, phone
number, title, and employer's name.
* Information about our users' experiences with F5 products, services,
websites, events, webinars, and online forums and communities, such as
DevCentral.
* Contact information derived from interactions with F5 by our actual or
prospective customers’ employees (e.g., interactions with customer service).
* Information about actual or prospective users' interests.
* Payment information for purchases with F5.
* Audio and visual information, such as CCTV footage and recordings of some
calls, meetings and events.
* Additional details about certification candidates, including:
* Identity documents and other personal data collected solely to authenticate
the candidate's identity and for test security (such as photographs,
fingerprints, or palm vein scans).
* Personal data submitted for test accommodations (such as information about
health or language concerns).
* Test results.
* Other personal data collected in connection with our Services, as described
in the relevant Service-specific Privacy Statement.
We obtain personal data directly from you or your employer; from third-party
sources such as our Unity Partners (which include resellers and distributors);
third-party marketplaces where our products are offered (such as AWS and Google
Cloud Platform); data brokers (such as Dun & Bradstreet); marketing companies;
referrals from customers, and users; and from publicly available sources such as
company websites and LinkedIn. Through some Services, we obtain personal data
from our customers, or from individuals who interact with our customers or their
online properties.
In some cases, F5 collects personal data through the technology described in
Section 7 below.
2. How does F5 use and disclose Personal Data with others?
F5 uses and discloses personal data for the following purposes:
* To analyze, improve, and develop F5 products and Services.
* To provide our products, Services, events, websites, communities, training,
and other business offerings.
* To process payments.
* To manage our relationships with customers, partners, resellers,
distributors, event attendees, investors, and others (which may involve
disclosing personal data to them).
* For marketing, advertising, and other communications (including customizing
those communications for specific recipients).
* To provide a third party (such as an employer) with confirmation or denial of
an individual's claimed certification status.
* For surveys and other market research.
* For security, IT management, and related research.
* To enforce the legal terms that govern our business and commercial
relationships (for example, we may disclose personal information with the
opposing party, judge or arbitrator in a dispute).
* To provide security and business continuity.
* To follow the law, or in other cases where we believe that using or
disclosing the data is appropriate to protect the rights, safety, and
property of F5 or others (for example, when required to make disclosures in
response to lawful requests by public authorities, such as to meet national
security or law enforcement requirements).
* For an actual or contemplated business sale, merger, consolidation, change in
control, transfer of substantial assets, or reorganization, or due diligence
in anticipation of such an event (for example, if a company were to acquire
F5, it may also acquire the personal data we hold).
* For other purposes requested or permitted by our customers or users.
For those purposes, we may disclose personal data to, for example:
* our affiliates;
* our customers;
* service providers, vendors, and other third parties that assist us, such as
our Unity Partners, event providers, payment processors, marketing providers,
testing providers, analytics providers, providers of technical services
(e.g., providers of data storage, data backup, and CRM systems), and other
subcontractors;
* joint marketing partners;
* security researchers;
* employers and others who seek verification of an individual’s claimed
certification status;
* entities involved in dispute resolution (such as an arbitrator or an opposing
party);
* entities involved in potential or actual significant corporate transactions
or events (such as those described in the second-to-last item in the list of
uses and disclosures above);
* governmental entities.
These uses and disclosures are also subject to our contractual obligations.
3. What are the legal reasons F5 can do this?
The laws in some jurisdictions require data controllers to tell you about the
legal grounds that allow them to use or disclose your personal data. Where those
laws apply, our legal grounds are:
* Legitimate interests: We handle personal data because it furthers the
legitimate interests of F5 (or of our customers, business partners, or
suppliers) in business activities such as the ones listed below, and because
that handling of data does not unduly impact your interests, rights, and
freedoms:
* Providing cybersecurity and managing information technology assets
* Protecting business activities, individuals, and property
* Providing customer service
* Marketing and advertising (including sending certain direct marketing)
* Analyzing and improving business activities
* Managing risks and legal issues
* To honor our contractual commitments to the individual: Some of our handling
of personal data is necessary to meet our contractual obligations to
individuals, or to take steps at the person's request because we are planning
to enter into a contract with him/her. For example, when we process an
individual’s payment data for a certification examination, we are relying on
this basis.
* Consent:
* If the law requires consent, and in some other cases, we handle personal
data on the basis of consent. For example, we conduct some of our direct
marketing on the basis of consent.
* If the law requires explicit consent, we use personal data on that basis.
* If the law allows, we may be able to infer consent from the circumstances.
* Legal compliance: We sometimes need to use and disclose personal data to
comply with our legal obligations.
* Legal claims: Sometimes we use or disclose personal data because it is
necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
4. What Personal Data rights and choices (including direct marketing opt-out)
are available?
For personal data that we collect through our Services, the Privacy Statement
for each Service has instructions for how you can exercise your legal rights
with respect to such data. Where we process such data solely on behalf of a
customer, those instructions typically will indicate that you should contact the
customer to exercise those rights. In those cases, if you contact F5 instead, we
normally will refer your request to the relevant customer (if we know who that
is) and will cooperate with that customer’s handling of the request, subject to
any special contractual arrangement with that customer.
For other personal data (including certain personal data we collect through some
of our Services), we offer the options below for exercising your rights and
choices about how we use your personal data. Many of these are subject to
important limits or exceptions under applicable laws and, where applicable, the
EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks (“Privacy Shield”).
* You may review and update certain information by logging into the relevant F5
websites or online services.
* Our marketing email messages, and certain other communications include
instructions about how to unsubscribe, which you can use to limit or stop
those communications. Opt-out processes may take some time to complete, but
we will work to meet your request quickly. You cannot opt out of certain
communications (such as billing-related communications or emergency service
messages).
* You can exercise opt-out rights, object, or withdraw consent in relation to
our use of certain cookies and certain similar technologies as described in
Section 7 below.
* The law of your jurisdiction (for example, within the United Kingdom and
European Economic Area) may give you additional rights to request access to,
correction of, or deletion of certain personal data we store. In some cases,
you may be entitled to receive a copy of the personal data you provided to us
in portable form or to request that we disclose it to a third party. The law
may also give you the right to request restrictions on the use of your
personal data, to object to our use of your personal data, or to withdraw
your consent to use your personal data (which will not affect the legality of
any processing that happened before your request takes effect). Section 12
below explains how to make these requests.
* For example, people who live in the United Kingdom or European Economic
Area (and certain other people) have the right to opt out of our use of
personal data for direct marketing. They can exercise their rights to opt
out, or to object to other processing, by contacting us as described below.
* For information about Californians’ privacy rights under California law,
please see Section 13 below.
You may contact us with any concerns or complaints regarding our privacy
practices, and you also may submit a complaint to the relevant governmental
authority. (Individuals whose personal data we receive under our Privacy Shield
certification also may file a Privacy Shield-related complaint, as described in
the Privacy Shield section below.)
For your protection, we will only implement requests with respect to personal
data after we have verified your identity to our satisfaction, taking into
consideration the nature of your request.
5. Does the personal data go to other countries?
We are a global company with headquarters in the United States, and the F5
affiliates and third parties to whom we disclose the personal data as described
in this Privacy Notice are located in the United States and elsewhere in the
world, including countries where data protection laws may not provide as much
protection as your country. Your personal information may be subject to
disclosure to the governments, courts or law enforcement or regulatory agencies
of these or other countries, pursuant to the laws of such countries. F5 complies
with legal requirements for protecting the movement of data across borders,
including through the use of European Commission-approved Standard Contractual
Clauses.
Please note that our customers may transfer personal data to F5 on the basis of
legal mechanisms approved by the European Commission and other relevant
authorities for transferring data across borders, such as Standard Contractual
Clauses. If you wish to exercise a right to see copies of the mechanisms that F5
uses to transfer data to third parties, please contact us.
Finally, certain F5 services allow our customers and users to transfer data to
third parties. Those customers and users are solely responsible for those
transfers.
6. How does F5, Inc.’s Privacy Shield certification protect my data?
As a business subject to the investigatory and enforcement authority of the
United States Federal Trade Commission, F5, Inc. has certified it adheres to the
Privacy Shield Principles with respect to the personal data that F5, Inc.
receives in reliance on the Privacy Shield. We continue to honor our
commitments with respect to personal data received under our
certification. This certification is limited to personal data that meets all of
the following conditions: (i) F5, Inc. receives the data in the U.S. from a
“transfer” from the United Kingdom, European Economic Area or Switzerland (as
such term is defined under the laws of such jurisdictions), (ii) F5, Inc.
receives the personal data via a Service, and (iii) the Service-specific Privacy
Statement indicates that F5’s Privacy Shield commitment applies to that Service.
We recognize that the Court of Justice of the European Union ruled in July 2020
that a certification under the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework no longer can
serve as the basis by which entities subject to the GDPR export Personal Data to
the United States, and that the United Kingdom and Switzerland have since
reached similar conclusions. As affected customers who relied only on EU-U.S.
and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield certifications transition to Standard Contractual
Clauses and other safeguards, we continue to honor our legal obligation to
comply with the Privacy Shield.
F5, Inc.’s Privacy Shield certification is available
at https://www.privacyshield.gov/list. To learn more about the Privacy Shield
program, please visit https://www.privacyshield.gov. When F5, Inc. receives
personal data under the Privacy Shield and then transfers it to a third-party
service provider acting as an agent on F5, Inc.’s behalf, F5, Inc. may have
certain responsibility under the Privacy Shield if both (i) the agent processes
the information in a manner inconsistent with the Privacy Shield and (ii) F5,
Inc. is responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
Covered individuals should direct any questions, concerns or complaints
regarding F5, Inc.’s compliance with the Privacy Shield to us as described at
the bottom of this Policy. We will attempt to answer your questions and satisfy
your concerns as soon as possible.
F5, Inc. commits to cooperate with EU data protection authorities (DPA’s) and
the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) and to
comply with the advice given by such authorities with regard to non-human
resources data transferred from the EU and Switzerland.
7. Does F5 use cookies and similar technology?
In our websites, apps, and emails, we and third parties may collect certain
information by automated means such as cookies, web beacons, JavaScript,
mobile-device functionality and other computer code. This information may
include unique browser identifiers, IP address, browser and operating system
information, device identifiers (such as the Apple IDFA or Android Advertising
ID), geolocation, other device information, Internet connection information, as
well as details about your interactions with our apps, websites, and emails (for
example, the URL of the third-party website from which you came, the pages on
our website that you visit, and the links you click on in our websites).
We and third parties may use these automated means to read or write information
on your devices, such as in various types of cookies and other browser-based or
plugin-based local storage (such as HTML5 storage or Flash-based storage), or to
collect pieces of information that together may uniquely identify your device.
Cookies and local storage are files that contain data, such as unique
identifiers, that we or a third party may transfer to or read from your devices
for the purposes described in this Privacy Notice, such as to recognize the
devices, to improve your use of our website and services, for cybersecurity, to
prevent fraud, to provide services, and for record-keeping, analytics, and
marketing, depending on the context of collection.
These technologies help us:
* Keep track of whether you are signed in or have previously signed in so that
we can display all the features that are available to you.
* Remember your settings on the pages you visit so that we can display your
preferred content the next time you visit.
* Display personalized content.
* Perform analytics, measure traffic and usage trends, and better understand
the demographics of our users.
* Review and analyze user journeys on our websites and apps, such as how users
engage with, linger on, navigate, and scroll through our services during a
visit.
* Diagnose and fix technology problems.
* Plan for and enhance our business.
Also, in some cases, we assist with the collection of information by advertising
services provided by third parties. The ad services may track your online
activities over time by collecting information through automated means such as
cookies, and they may use this information to show you ads that are tailored to
your individual interests or characteristics and/or based on your prior visits
to certain sites or apps, or other information we or they know, infer, or have
collected from the users like you.
For example, we and these services may use different types of cookies, other
automated technology, and data to:
* Recognize users and their devices.
* Inform, optimize, and serve ads.
* Report on our ad impressions, other uses of ad services, and interactions
with these ad impressions and ad services (including how they are related to
visits to specific sites or apps).
Below, you can find options for adjusting your preferences for our use of
various technologies on our websites in a particular browser. For most of the
cookie preference options described below, your opt-out will be stored a
cookie. That means that you can undo your opt-out by manually clearing the
cookies in your browser or by using a browser that automatically clears cookies.
Depending on where you are and some other factors, this may reactivate the
sorts of cookies that your previous preference had stopped. If you do that and
then decide to opt-out again for that browser, you will need to perform the
relevant opt-out steps again in that browser.
By clicking on the cookie hyperlink in the footer of participating F5 websites,
you can launch a consent tool to adjust your preferences about how certain
cookies and certain similar technologies are used in F5 websites that hyperlink
to that same preferences tool from their footer. You should repeat this process
with each browser you use to visit those websites. This is the best way to
control cookies on the sites that offer this option.
Analytics opt-outs: You can opt out of Google Analytics and customize Google
Display Network ads by using the Google Ads Settings page from each browser.
Google also allows you to install a Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on for
most browsers.
To learn more about interest-based advertising generally, or to use a different
method to opt out of targeted, interest-based ads by some of our current ad
service partners, visit aboutads.info/choices or youronlinechoices.eu from each
browser you use.
In addition, you may be able to set your web browser to refuse certain types of
cookies, or to alert you when certain types of cookies are being sent. Some
browsers offer similar settings for HTML5 local storage, and Flash storage can
be managed as described here. However, if you block or otherwise reject our
cookies, local storage, JavaScript or other technologies, certain websites
(including some of our own websites) may not function properly.
If you replace, change, or upgrade your browser, or delete your cookies, you may
need to use these opt-out tools again.
Please visit your mobile device manufacturer's website (or the website for its
operating system) for instructions on any additional privacy controls in your
mobile operating system, such as privacy settings for device identifiers and
geolocation. Please note, however, that we do not respond to browser-based
privacy signals (such as do-not-track) at this time.
8. How long does F5 store Personal Data?
We will retain personal data as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes
outlined in this Privacy Notice unless the law requires us to keep it for a
longer period of time. To provide security and business continuity for the
activities described in this Privacy Notice, we make backups of certain data,
which we may retain for longer than the original data.
9. What about security?
To help protect personal data, we have put in place physical, technical, and
administrative safeguards. However, we cannot assure you that data that we
collect will never be used or disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with
this Privacy Notice.
10. What about other kinds of data?
If the law and our contractual obligations allow, we may aggregate or
de-identify your personal data so that the information cannot be linked to you
and is no longer personal data. Our use and disclosure of non-personal data is
not subject to this Privacy Notice, and we may use or disclose it for any reason
permitted by law.
11. What happens when this Privacy Notice changes?
F5 may change this Privacy Notice at any time, including to reflect changes in
the law or our data practices. Any updated Privacy Notice will be accessible
from the footer of f5.com or another convenient location.
12. How to contact us
To request to exercise your data protection rights under the GDPR or other laws
(besides the CCPA), please visit the General DSR Portal.
For CCPA Requests only for California Residents, please follow the instructions
below for California-specific rights.
For security and legal reasons, F5 reserves the right to deny requests that
require us to access third-party websites or services.

13. Special details for California residents
This Section 13 applies only to “personal information” about California
residents, as that term is defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act
(“CCPA”), and it supplements the information in the rest of our F5 Privacy
Notice above. Data about individuals who are not residents of California is
handled differently and is not subject to the same rights described in this
Section. This Section does not apply to data that F5 handles in its capacity as
a processor or “service provider” under the CCPA, even when such data is about a
resident of California, or to other data or activities that are not subject to
the privacy policy provisions of the CCPA.
Collection, Retention, and Use of California Personal Information
We collect (and during the 12 months leading up to the effective date of this
Privacy Notice we did collect) the categories of personal information described
below. We intend to retain this information for as long as we feel it is
necessary for the purposes described further below, or for any longer period
required by law. Because we may collect and use the same category of personal
information for different purposes and in different contexts, there is not
typically a fixed retention period that always will apply to a particular
category of personal information. Examples of how long we normally intend to
retain personal information in certain situations are set forth below.
Category of personal information
Examples of how long we normally plan to keep this information
identifiers (such as name, address, email address and other contact information)
We may retain certain identifiers associated with points of contact within
existing customers for the duration of the customer’s contract with F5, and for
2 years after that for related administration and sales purposes.
We may retain identifiers associated with non-customer persons collected in the
context of sales until 1 year after they unsubscribe from emails, or 1 year
after the person’s last interaction with F5 (whichever is greater) for analytics
purposes.
commercial information (such as information about an individual’s interests and
interactions with F5, our partners, or our customers, including transaction
data);
We may retain certain information on a person’s interest in our products for up
to 1 year after the person’s last interaction with F5, or 2 years after the end
of a customer’s contract with F5 for sales and marketing purposes.
financial data (such as payment information)
We may retain financial data for 7 years in support of financial
statements/filings and key financial or business process controls.
health information
If we collect health information from a certification candidate in a request for
an accommodation, we dispose of it shortly after making an accommodation
decision. For more detail about retention of health information and other
categories of data in the context of our F5 Certified! Professional
Certification Program, please see that program’s Privacy Statement.
audio and visual information (such as CCTV images or recordings of calls or
meetings)
If a customer contacts us for customer support on certain recorded lines, we
often retain recordings of those conversations for one year.
biometric information (such as palm vein prints collected from certification
candidates for identity verification and test security)
If an F5 Certified! testing partner collects fingerprints or palm vein scans for
test security, the standard retention period is three years. However, during
active investigations or in connection with legal matters as permitted by law,
this biometric data may be retained for six years or longer, except for
candidates in Illinois, for whom absent a valid warrant or subpoena issued by a
court of competent jurisdiction, or a legal requirement that takes precedence
over the Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA), this data is purged after
three years..
internet or other network or device activity (such as IP addresses, device
identifiers, cookie data, device attributes, device usage information, browsing
information, metadata, and other information described in Section 7 of our
Privacy Notice or Service-specific Privacy Statements)
We retain the California IP address associated with account logins on our own
websites for several years for account authentication, fraud detection, and
other cybersecurity purposes.
account login credentials
We retain account login credentials for the duration of the account and may
further retain them for fraud prevention and cybersecurity purposes.
professional or employment related data (such as title)
We may retain various forms of professional related data received in the sales
context for 1 year after the person’s (or their organization’s) last interaction
with F5, or 2 years after the end of a customer’s contract with F5 for sales and
marketing purposes.
inferences drawn from any of the above
We often retain inferences for the same period of time for which we retain the
underlying data.
F5 uses personal information for the following purposes:
* To analyze, improve, and develop F5 products and services.
* To provide our products, services, events, websites, communities, training,
and other business offerings.
* To process payments.
* To manage our relationships with customers, partners, resellers,
distributors, event attendees, investors, and others.
* For marketing, advertising, and other communications (including customizing
those communications for specific recipients).
* To provide a third party (such as an employer) with confirmation or denial of
an individual's claimed certification status.
* For surveys and other market research.
* For security, IT management, and related research.
* To enforce the legal terms that govern our business and commercial
relationships.
* To provide security and business continuity.
* To follow the law, or in other cases where we believe that using or
disclosing the data is appropriate to protect the rights, safety, and
property of F5 or others (for example, when required to make disclosures in
response to lawful requests by public authorities, such as to meet national
security or law enforcement requirements).
* For an actual or contemplated business sale, merger, consolidation, change in
control, transfer of substantial assets, or reorganization, or due diligence
in anticipation of such an event.
* For other purposes requested or permitted by our customers or users.
“Sale,” “Sharing,” and Related Opt-out
As described further below, some of our disclosures of personal information
qualify under the CCPA as what it defines as a “sale” or “sharing” of personal
information. During the 12 months leading up to the effective date of this
Privacy Notice, we “sold” and “shared” (as those terms are defined under the
CCPA), what the CCPA calls “identifiers” (like IP addresses), “internet or other
electronic network activity information” (like information regarding an
individual’s browsing interactions on a website), and “commercial information”
(like the fact that a browser visited a page directed to people who are
considering purchasing from us) to third parties that assist us, such as
marketing providers and analytics providers. This practice continues today. To
our knowledge, we do not “sell” or “share” (as those terms are defined under the
CCPA) the personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.
You can exercise your right to opt out of those disclosures by following the
instructions on our “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” form. (You
also can exercise this right by leaving a voicemail with such request at +1
(844) 311-6885 and following the instructions we send you, but this option is
slower.)
Your browser may also offer a way to activate the Global Privacy Control signal
(“GPC”). Our websites each treat qualifying browsers for which the user has
activated the GPC signal as having opted out of what CCPA calls a “sale” of any
California personal information that is collected on that site from that browser
using cookies and similar technology. You can override that treatment for a
GPC-enabled browser by using the cookie controls available from the website’s
footer to opt into particular categories of cookies from that browser. In that
case, “sales” via cookies and similar technology in those categories may resume
on that browser.
Opting out of “sales” and “sharing” limits only some types of disclosures of
personal information, and there are exceptions to all of the rights described in
this section.

Privacy Notice or Service-specific Privacy Statements)

Same as first row in this chart.
inferences drawn from any of the above
Same as first row in this chart.
We do not use or disclose “sensitive personal information” covered by this
Notice and as defined in the CCPA in a manner that requires us to offer a
special right to limit our use of this data under the CCPA.
CCPA Right to Access, Correct, or Delete Personal Information
If you are a California resident, California law also may permit you to request
that we:
* Provide access to and/or a copy of certain information we hold about you;
* Delete certain information we have about you;
· Correct certain personal information we have about you; and
* Inform you about the categories of personal information we have collected
about you in the preceding 12 months; the categories of sources of such
information; the business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling
your personal information; and the categories of third parties with whom we
have disclosed certain personal information, and more specific detail about
what categories of information were "sold," "shared" or disclosed to
particular categories of third parties, similar to the detail above this
section of the Privacy Policy;
Please note that certain information may be exempt from such requests under
California law. For example, we need certain information to provide our services
to you, so we may reject a deletion request for that information while providing
services to you.
To request to exercise any of these rights and receive the fastest response,
please use our CCPA DSR Portal or leave a voicemail with such request at +1
(844) 311-6885. For security and legal reasons, F5 will not accept requests
that require us to access third-party websites or services. We reserve the right
to take steps verify your identity to our satisfaction before responding to your
request, which may include, depending the type of request you are making, the
sensitivity of any data you are requesting, and the nature of your relationship
with us: verifying your name, asking you to click on a link that we send to your
email address, requesting that you login to an account you maintain with us, or
requesting that you provide us with information about our relationship that only
you are likely to have.
Requests Made by Agents
If you are an agent making a request on behalf of a consumer, we reserve the
right to take steps to verify that you are authorized to make that request,
which may include requiring you to provide us with written proof such as a
notarized authentication letter or a power of attorney. We also may require the
consumer to verify their identity directly with us. Because opt-out requests
for “sales” and “sharing” made through cookies and related technology must be
performed from each browser that is used to access our Services, it is easiest
for the consumer to perform such opt-outs themselves. However, if a consumer
wishes for an agent to perform browser-based requests on their behalf, the
consumer may arrange for the agent to use the consumer’s browser to make such
requests. We are not responsible for the security risks of this or any other
arrangements that a consumer may have with an agent. For clarity, this is not
permission for any user to disclose their login credentials to an agent or any
third party. Such disclosure is prohibited and is not required for an agent to
make requests under this Privacy Notice.
Nondiscrimination
You also have a right not to receive “discriminatory treatment” (within the
meaning of the CCPA) for the exercise of the privacy rights conferred by the
CCPA.
