Your Rights and Choices

The CCPA, as amended by the CPRA, provides consumers (California residents) with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.

Right to Know and Data Portability

You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information (the “right to know”). Once we receive your request and confirm your identity (a “verifiable request”), we may disclose to you certain information, including but not limited to the following:

  • the categories of personal information we collected about you;
  • the categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you;
  • our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information;
  • the categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information;
  • if we sold or disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, two separate lists disclosing:
    • sales, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient purchased, and
    • disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained; and
  • the specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).

We may deliver the requestor's personal information:

  • to password-protected account holders using a secure self-service portal; or
  • at your option:
    • by mail, or
    • electronically.
  • Please note that you are only permitted a maximum of two requests in a 12-month period. We may also limit the scope of personal information collected and maintained about you on or after January 1, 2022. We may also refrain providing more than the past 12-months of data. We are not required to retain personal information that we would not normally retain.
  • Upon a verifiable request, we will transfer that information to another entity directly.
  • Before responding to a verifiable request, we may be required by law and regulations to remove certain sensitive information from collected personal information, including:
  • social Security numbers (SSNs), driver's license numbers, or other government-issued identification numbers;
  • financial account numbers;
  • health insurance or medical identification numbers;
  • account passwords or security questions and answers; and
  • unique biometric data generated from measurements or technical analysis of human characteristics.

Right to Delete 

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions (the “right to delete”). Once we receive a verifiable request (see Exercising Your Rights to Know or Delete), we will review your verifiable request to see if an exception allowing us to retain the information applies. 

NOTE that your right to delete is not an absolute right and we may deny deletion requests when we need to retain personal information for certain statutory business reasons.

In particular, we may deny your deletion request (even in part) if retaining any of the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to perform the following: 

  • To complete the transaction for which the personal information was collected;
  • To fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law;
  • To provide a good or service requested by a consumer, or reasonably anticipated by the consumer within the context of a business' ongoing business relationship with the consumer;
  • To otherwise perform a contract between a consumer and us;
  • To help to ensure security and integrity to the extent the use of a consumer's personal information is reasonably necessary and proportionate for those purposes;
  • To debug to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;
  • To exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise that consumer's right of free speech, or exercise another right provided for by law;
  • To comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act pursuant to Chapter 3.6 (commencing with Section 1546) of Title 12 of Part 2 of the Penal Code;
  • To engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research that conforms or adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when our deletion of the information is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the ability to complete such research, if a consumer has provided informed consent;
  • ⦁ To enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with the expectations of the consumer based on a consumer's relationship with us and compatible with the context in which the consumer provided the information;
  • To respond to or to contest disputes asserted by or against you; and
  • To comply with a legal obligation.

If we deny your verifiable request, we will notify you of the following:

  • the basis for the denial, including any conflict with federal or state law, or exception to the CCPA, unless prohibited from doing so by law;
  • an explanation that we will delete your personal information is not subject to one of the above exceptions; and
  • confirmation that we will not use your personal information retained for any other purpose than provided for by that exception(s).

If we approve your verifiable request, we will notify you of the following:

  • confirmation of the permanent deletion or deidentification of your personal information not subject to one of the above exceptions from our records;
  • an explanation that we will maintain a record of your deletion request for at least 24 months or as otherwise needed to ensure that your personal information remains deleted from our business records; and
  • notification to our service providers or contractors to delete your personal information from their records and all third parties to whom it has sold or shared your personal information to delete that information, unless the notification proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.

Alternatively, in responding to a request to delete, we may present you with the choice to delete select portions of your personal information.

Right to Correct

You have the right to request that we correct inaccurate personal information, accounting for the nature of the personal information and the purposes of the processing of the personal information, subject to certain limitations (the “right to correct”).

NOTE that your right to delete is not an absolute right and we must take the personal information's processing purposes and general nature into account.

However, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to correct the inaccurate personal information upon a verifiable request.

Right to Restrict Sensitive Personal Information Processing


You have the right to restrict how we use and disclose sensitive personal information that we collect or process with the purpose of inferring characteristics about you, subject to certain limitations.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise your rights described above, please submit a request by either:

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a request related to your personal information.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. 

You do not need to create an account with us to submit a request to know or delete. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that specific account.

We will only use personal information provided in the request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make it. 

For instructions on exercising your sale opt-out or opt-in rights, see Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights.

Response Timing and Format

We will confirm receipt of your request within ten (10) business days, generally describing our verification process and providing an expected response timeframe, unless we’ve already granted or denied the request. If you do not receive confirmation within the 10-business day timeframe, please contact us.

We endeavor to substantively respond to a verifiable request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to another 45 days), we first inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. 

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding our receipt of your request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights

If you are age 16 or older, you have the right to direct us to not sell your personal information at any time (the “right to opt-out”). We do not sell the personal information of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years old, unless we receive affirmative authorization (the “right to opt-in”) from either the consumer who is between 13 and 15 years old, or the parent or guardian of a consumer less than 13 years old. Consumers who opt-in to personal information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time.

To exercise the right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) may contact us or submit a request form by visiting https://camillelavie.com/pages/ccpa-opt-out.

Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve (12) months before asking you to reauthorize personal information sales. 

You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your opt-out rights. We will only use personal information provided in an opt-out request to review and comply with the request.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:

  • Deny you goods or services
  • Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties
  • Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services
  • Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services
  • However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your personal information's value and contain written terms that describe the program's material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time.

California's “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our Website that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
