To deliver customized content and advertising, we may share your location information, including geo-location information, with our agents, vendors, or advertisers.
- Cookies and other Electronic Technologies. We may also collect data about your use of the Services through web server logs, cookies and/or tracking pixels.

The cookies may be associated with de-identified demographic or other data linked to or derived from data you voluntarily have submitted to us (e.g., your email address) that we may share with a service provider solely in hashed, non-human readable form so that our service provider can deliver advertisements to you on our behalf. As we adopt additional technologies, we may also gather additional information through other methods.

Exercising Your Access and Deletion Rights. To exercise the rights described above, you must send us a request that (1) provides sufficient information to allow us to verify that you are the person about whom we have collected personal information, and (2) describes your request in sufficient detail to allow us to understand, evaluate, and respond to it. Each request that meets both of these criteria will be considered a “Valid Request.” We may not respond to requests that do not meet these criteria. We will only use personal information provided in a Valid Request to verify your identity and respond to your request. You do not need an account to submit a Valid Request. We will work to respond to your Valid Request within 45 days of receipt. We will not charge you a fee for making a Valid Request unless your Valid Request(s) is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that your Valid Request warrants a fee, we will notify you of the fee and explain that decision before completing your request. You may submit a Valid Request using https://www.becn.com/contact-us.
There are various exceptions to your rights to Access and Deletion under the CCPA, and in some cases we are not required by the CCPA to complete your request in connection with personal information we obtain about you when you are acting as an employee, owner, director, officer, or contractor of a business, even if it is otherwise a Valid Request. If we do not respond to your request fully, we will provide you additional information about the reasons why.
Authorized Agents. You may designate an agent to make the requests described above. If you do so, we will take steps both to verify the identity of the person seeking to exercise their rights as listed above, and to verify that your agent has been authorized by you to make a request on your behalf through providing us with a signed written authorization or a copy of a power of attorney.
We Will Not Discriminate Against You for Exercising Your Rights Under the CCPA. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under the CCPA. We will not deny you our goods or services, charge you different prices or rates, or provide you a lower quality of goods and services if you exercise your rights under the CCPA. However, we may offer different tiers of our Services as allowed by applicable data privacy laws (including the CCPA) with varying prices, rates, or levels of quality of the goods or services you receive related to the value of personal information that we receive from you.
California Resident “Shine the Light” Rights. Under California Civil Code Sections 1798.83-1798.84, California residents are entitled to contact us to prevent disclosure of personal information to third parties for such third parties’ direct marketing purposes; in order to submit such a request, please contact us at https://www.becn.com/contact-us.
