The rights identified in this section do not apply to Personal Information collected from Colorado, Connecticut, Utah and Virginia residents through the employment or job application process, or through a business-to-business relationship.

(iv) Notice of Your Right to Request Correction of Your Personal Information. You have the right to request us to correct the Personal Information or that we have on file for you. You can request us to correct your Personal Information by submitting a verifiable written request to us by calling us at our toll-free telephone number: 1-888-462-7322.

Your request must be verifiable before we can fulfill such request. Verifying your request will require you to provide sufficient information for us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or a person authorized to act on your behalf. We will only use the Personal Information that you have provided in a verifiable request in order to verify your request. To verify the request, we may require that you verify your identity using a verification service through Adobe Sign, and we may require you to provide us with a signed declaration under penalty of perjury from you that you are the individual whose Personal Information is subject to the request.

If we are able to verify your identity, we will correct your Personal Information at issue on our existing systems and implement measures to ensure that the information remains corrected.

We will also direct our service providers to whom we have provided your Personal Information at issue to correct the information at issue.

If we are unable to verify your identity, we will deny your request and inform you that we cannot verify your identify.

By law, we may also deny your request to correct the information at issue if we determine that the contested information is more than likely correct based on a totality of the circumstances considering the nature of the information (e.g., whether it is objective, subjective, unstructured, sensitive, etc.), how we obtained the contested information, and documentation relating to the accuracy of the information whether provided by you, us, or another source. We may require you to provide documentation necessary to rebut our own documentation that the personal information is accurate. We may also deny your request to correct if we have denied your request to correct the same alleged inaccuracy within the past six months of receiving the request. However, we will treat the request to correct as new if you provide new or additional documentation to prove that the information at issue is inaccurate.

As an alternative to correcting the information at issue, we may delete the contested information if such deletion does not negatively impact you or if you consent to the deletion.

If we deny your request to correct, we will:

  • Explain the basis for the denial; and
    • If the request to correct would be impossible or would involve disproportionate effort, we will provide a detailed explanation that includes enough facts to give you a meaningful understanding as to why we cannot comply with the request.

  • Inform you that upon your request, we will note both internally and to any third party with whom we share the personal information that the accuracy of the personal information is contested by you;

Within 10 business days of receiving your request, we will confirm receipt of your request and provide information about how we will process your request, including a description of our process to verify your identity and when you should expect our response. Generally, we will respond to your request within 45 days. Under certain circumstances, we may take up to 90 days to respond to your request. In these circumstances, we will provide you with notice and an explanation of the reason we will take more than 45 days to respond to your request. We will accept, review, and consider any documentation that you provide in connection with the request to correct.

In responding to your request to correct, we will maintain a record of your request for the legally required period of 24 months.

The JAMS Rules and Procedures are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling (800) 352-5267. The arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the JAMS Rules and Procedures.
