Your California Privacy Rights

We have in place policies and procedures to facilitate the exercise of privacy rights available to California residents under applicable law.  If you are a California resident, you may be entitled to the following:

Disclosure of Direct Marketers

To have access upon simple request, and free of charge, to the categories and names/addresses of third parties that have received personal information for direct marketing purposes. Moonshot Consulting Group does not share your personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

Right to Deletion:   to obtain the deletion of your personal information in the situations set forth by applicable data protection law and upon receipt of a verifiable request.

Right to Non-Discrimination:   As defined under relevant law, you have a right to non-discrimination in the services or quality of services you receive from us for exercising your rights.

Please contact with the use of contact details specified in section 1 of this Privacy Policy in relation to exercising these rights.  Note that we may ask you to verify your identity – such as by requiring you to provide information about yourself – before responding to such requests.

Submitting a Verifiable Request under the CCPA

As mentioned above, California residents have certain rights to access, delete, or otherwise exercise rights regarding their personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”).  Moonshot Consulting Group will respond to an individual’s “verifiable request” to exercise his or her rights under the CCPA – that is, where Moonshot Consulting Group has received a request purporting to be from a particular individual, and Moonshot Consulting Group has been able to verify the individual’s identity. The need to verify an individual’s identity is critical to protecting your information, and to ensuring that your information is not shared with anyone pretending to be you or someone who is not authorized to act on your behalf.

Submitting your request.

You may submit a verifiable request with the contact details specified in section 1 of this Privacy Policy.  We will ask you to provide information about yourself so that we can verify your identity as part of this process.  This information may include your name, address, whether you have an account with Moonshot Consulting Group, and other information deemed necessary by us to reasonably verify your identity. Once we have your submission, we will compare the information you provided to the information we have about you to verify your identity. If necessary, we may ask for additional information if we have difficulty confirming your identity.  We will not share your information or honor other requests in those situations where we are unable to confirm that a request for your information is a “verifiable request.” We will not be able to process your request if we cannot verify your identity.

Submit a request through an authorized agent.

Under California law, a California resident can appoint an “authorized agent” to make certain verifiable requests on their behalf, such as the right to know what information we collect about the consumer or to request deletion of the consumer’s information. An authorized agent may submit a request by following the steps outlined above. An authorized agent must identify the consumer he or she is submitting a request on behalf of, and provide the information requested by Moonshot Consulting Group to verify the consumer’s identity. We will also require the purported authorized agent to submit proof that he or she has been authorized by the consumer to act on the consumer’s behalf.

Because the security and privacy of your information is paramount, we will ask that you identify and provide permission in writing for such persons to act as your authorized agent and exercise your applicable rights under California law in such situations. This may require us to contact you directly and alert you that an individual has claimed to be your agent and is attempting to access or delete your information. We will also independently verify your identity to ensure that an unauthorized person is not attempting to impersonate you and exercise your rights without authorization. We will not share your information or honor any other requests in those situations where you cannot or do not grant permission in writing for an identified authorized agent to act on your behalf, or where we cannot independently verify your identity.

Submitting a Request for Removal of Minor Information

To request the removal of information about a minor from this site, parents or guardians may submit a request with the subject line “Removal of Minor Information.” Such requests must come from the minor’s parents or guardian; minors may not submit information to us via email. To request the removal of information about a minor from this site, parents or guardians may submit a request with the subject line “Removal of Minor Information.” Such requests must come from the minor’s parents or guardian; minors may not submit information to us via email.

Section 230(d), Moonshot Consulting Group hereby notifies you that parental control protections (such as computer hardware, software, or filtering services) are commercially available that may assist in limiting access to material that is harmful to minors. Information regarding providers of such protections may be found on the Internet by searching “parental control protection” or similar terms.
