Sales of Personal Information
The concept of a “sale” under CCPA is different from what has traditionally been considered a “sale”, e.g., selling a customer list for money. Under CCPA, a “sale” potentially includes other uses or disclosures of personal information to third parties outside Sapropel Organics USA in a commercial context where an exception to “sale” as provided by the CCPA does not exist. Because the concept of “sale” is arguably so broad under CCPA, Sapropel Organics USA may conceivably be deemed to “sell” personal information described in the following categories, even if such “sales” are not the exchange of that personal information for money: identifiers; individual records; characteristics of protected classifications under California or federal law; commercial information; internet or other electronic network activity information; geolocation data; audio, electronic, visual, or similar information; professional or employment-related information; and inferences information.
Please note that Sapropel Organics USA will treat your direction to Sapropel Organics USA to complete a transaction with us as your direction to have Sapropel Organics USA provide certain related personal information that may be included in your transaction to a small group of vendors who provide services to fulfill your transaction, and we do not treat that as a sale. These include payment processors, fraud prevention services, and shippers.
Disclosures Of Personal Information
In the furtherance of Sapropel Organics USA’s business purposes, Sapropel Organics USA may disclose personal information that are within the following categories: identifiers; individual records; characteristics of protected classifications under California or federal law; commercial information; biometric information; internet or other electronic network activity information; geolocation data; audio, electronic, visual, or similar information; professional or employment-related information; and inferences information.
