8. Data Retention

We will retain your personal information only for so long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information; the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information; the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means; and the applicable legal requirements.

If you reside in California, you have rights to access the specific pieces of your information, the right to know details about our processing of your information, the right to request deletion of your personal information, and the right to not be denied goods or services for exercising these rights.

IDIQ does not sell personal information of its users as the term “sell” is traditionally understood. But “sell” under the CCPA is broadly defined. It includes the sharing of personal information with third parties in exchange for something of value, even if no money changes hands. For example, sharing an advertising or device identifier to a third party may be considered a “sale” under the CCPA. To the extent IDIQ “sells” your personal information (as the term “sell” is defined under the CCPA), you have the right to opt-out of that “sale” on a going-forward basis at any time. For more information about opting out of the “sale” of your personal information, see the Opting-Out Cross-Contextual Behavioral Advertising, section, above. After 12 months, we may ask you if you want to opt into the “sale” of your personal information.

Persons authorized to submit requests on behalf of a consumer (“agents”) can submit a request by email to [email protected]. We may notify the consumer and require the consumer to independently verify their identity before fulfilling the authorized agent’s request.

C. Vermont Residents.

IDIQ will not share your non-public personal information with unaffiliated third parties unless you authorize us to make those disclosures without your consent, other than as permitted by law. Further, we will not share credit reports with our affiliates without your consent.

D. International Users.

We are headquartered in the United States, and the information we collect will be processed in the United States. Your personal information may be stored, transferred to, and processed in any country where we have facilities or in which we engage service providers. These countries may be outside the United States and may have different data protection laws than in the United States.
