Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected through the Website for third-party purposes, and that is why we provide choices provided by Google Analytics. However, we do not currently recognize or respond to browser-initiated DNT signals, as the internet industry is currently still working toward defining exactly what “DNT” means, what it means to comply with DNT, and a common approach to responding to DNT. Learn more about DNT at All About Do Not Track.

When you update information, however, we may maintain a copy of the unrevised information in our records to the extent necessary for legal compliance purposes and where permitted by applicable law.

(B) California Residents. This section of the Policy applies solely to those individuals who reside in the State of California (“consumers” or “you”). We are providing this policy in compliance with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”), and other applicable California privacy laws. Any terms used in this Notice that are not defined in the Notice itself have the same definition as used in the CCPA/CPRA, and its implementing regulations.

(a) What Information We Collect: We collect the categories of information disclosed above in the “Categories of Information” section of the Policy, and we collect that information from the categories of sources described above in “Categories of Sources of Information.” The exact information we collect, and the sources, about you depends on what products/services you use and how you use our Website and interact with us. We base the information in this disclosure on our data collection practices over the previous 12 months until present time.

(b) How We Use and Disclose Your Information: We collect and use your information for the business or commercial purposes described above in the “How Will Title365 Use My Information” section of the Policy, and we disclose your information to the categories of third parties described above in “How Will Title365 Disclose My Information.” Exactly how we use your information depends on what products/services you use and how you use our Website and interact with us. We base the information in this disclosure on our data collection and disclosure practices over the previous 12 months until present time.

(ii) Right to Know: California law provides California consumers with the right to request that covered businesses that collect your personal information provide you with the following: (i) the categories of personal information the business has collected about you; (ii) the categories of sources of such information; (iii) the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling or sharing your personal information (as applicable); (iv) the categories of third parties to whom the business discloses personal information; and (v) the specific pieces of personal information the business has collected about you. To the extent applicable, a covered business must also disclose (i) the categories of your personal information that the business sold or shared (and to which categories of third parties); and (ii) the categories of your personal information that the business disclosed for a business purpose (and to which categories of persons). This “Right to Know” is subject to certain exceptions. Please see below under “Contact us” for information on how to submit an access request.

(iii) Right to Delete: California law provides California consumers with the right to request that covered businesses delete personal information that they have collected from you. This “Right to Delete” is subject to certain exceptions. Please note, we need certain types of information so that we can provide the services to you. If you request deletion of your information and we are required to delete your information, you may no longer be able to access or use the services we provide. Please see below under “Contact us” for information on how to submit a deletion request.

(iv) Right to Correct: California law provides California consumers with the right to request that covered businesses that maintain inaccurate personal information about you correct that information. This “Right to Correct” is subject to certain exceptions. Please see below under “Contact us” for information on how to submit a correction request.

(v) Right to Limit: While California law provides California consumers with the right to request that covered businesses limit the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information that is collected or processed with the purpose of inferring characteristics about you (subject to certain exceptions), Title365 does not collect or process sensitive personal information through this Website for the purpose of inferring characteristics about you, as we understand those terms to be defined by the CCPA/CPRA.

(vi) Title365 Does Not Sell or Share Your Data: While California law provides California consumers with the right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of their personal information (subject to certain exceptions), Title365 has not “sold” or “shared” consumer personal information in the preceding 12 months and does not “sell” or “share” your personal information as we understand those terms to be defined by the CCPA/CPRA and its implementing regulations.

(vii) Authorized Agent: When a consumer uses an authorized agent to submit a request to know, correct or delete, a business may require that the consumer do the following (this does not apply when a consumer has provided the authorized agent with power of attorney pursuant to Probate Code sections 4000 to 4465):

(a) Provide the authorized agent signed permission to do so.

(b) Verify their own identity directly with the business.

(c) Directly confirm with the business that they provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request.

A business may deny a request from an authorized agent that does not submit proof that they have been authorized by the consumer to act on their behalf. To make an authorized request on behalf of another pursuant to consumer rights provided by California law, please submit a request at www.title365.com.

(viii) Additional Rights: Under California Civil Code Sections 1798.83-1798.84, California residents are entitled to ask certain covered businesses for a notice (a) identifying the categories of personal information (as defined by California law) that are disclosed to third parties for their own marketing purposes and (b) providing contact information for such third parties. However, as disclosed here in our Privacy Policy, Title365 does not disclose such personal information for these purposes.

(b) Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.

(c) Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.

(e) Retaliate against an employee, applicant for employment, or independent contractor, as those terms are defined in California Civil Code Section 1798.145.

(xi) How other data privacy laws may affect your ability to request access to, or delete, your data: Please note that your rights and choices regarding your personal information are often subject to other laws. Personal information collected pursuant to other laws, such as information governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, and the California Financial Information Privacy Act, may be exempt from requests to access, correct, limit or delete data.

(xii) Contact us: If you would like to make a request to exercise any of these rights, please submit a request at www.title365.com. You will be required to verify your identity before we fulfill your request. You can also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. To do so, you must provide us with written authorization or a power of attorney, signed by you, for the agent to act on your behalf. You will still need to verify your identity directly with us.
