In that case, we will relay your request to your Business Subscriber for further processing and fulfillment. Please contact your business subscriber if you have any questions. We do not charge a fee to process or respond to a verifiable request unless we have legal grounds to do so, such as requests that are 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.

California Privacy Rights

This section provides residents of the State of California (“California Consumers”) with the disclosures and notices required under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”). The following paragraphs apply solely to California Consumers and describe the specific rights afforded under the CCPA. Employee Data Exception. In many cases, the Personal Information we collect about you is in a business-to-business context when you are acting as an employee to a current or potential Business Subscriber in the performance of your job duties. Please note that Personal Information collected and used in this context is not protected Personal Information under the CCPA. Without limiting the foregoing, California Consumers may exercise the following rights over their Personal Information, subject to our receipt of a verifiable Consumer Privacy Request, as well as any exceptions and limitations that may apply.

  • Right to Disclosure. You have the right to request that we disclose information to you about our collection and use of your Personal Information, such as (i) the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you; (ii) the categories of sources for the Personal Information we have collected about you; (iii) our business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling or sharing your Personal Information; (iv) the categories of third parties with whom we disclose your Personal Information; and (v) a list of specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you. You also have the right to request that we disclose the categories of your Personal Information we have sold or shared and the categories of third parties to whom that Personal information was sold or shared, as well as the categories of Personal information disclosed for a business purpose and the categories of recipients of that information. Tine Health is only required to respond to two disclosure requests within a 12-month period.
  • Right to Access. You have the right to request that we provide you with access to specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you over the past 12 months (also called a data portability request). If you submit a right to access request, we will provide you with copies of the requested pieces of Personal Information in a portable and readily usable format. Please note that Tine Health is prohibited by law from disclosing copies of certain pieces of Personal Information (e.g., government identification numbers, financial account information, and passwords or security questions and answers) because the disclosure would create a substantial, articulable, and unreasonable risk to the security of the information, our business systems, or your account. Tine Health is only required by law to respond to two access requests within a 12-month period.
  • Right to Correct. If you discover that we maintain inaccurate Personal Information about you, or if your Personal Information changes, please inform us and we will update our records to reflect the correct information.
  • Right to Deletion. You have the right to request that we delete any of your Personal Information that we collected from you and retained, with certain exceptions. Tine Health may permanently delete, deidentify, or aggregate the Personal Information in response to a request for deletion. If you submit a right to deletion request, we will confirm the Personal Information to be deleted prior to its deletion, and we will notify you when your request is complete. Note that we can only delete your Personal Information entirely if we delete your Tine Health account so you can no longer use Tine Health.
  • Right to Opt-Out of Selling or Sharing Personal Information. If a business sells or shares your Personal Information with third parties, you have the right to opt-out. Tine Health does not sell or share your Personal Information with third parties. We only disclose your Personal Information in the limited circumstances described in this Privacy Notice. If this changes in the future, we will provide you with a method to opt-out of such selling and sharing.
  • Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information. If a business uses or discloses your Sensitive Personal Information for the purpose of inferring characteristics about you, then you have the right to direct the business to limit the use and disclosure of such information to certain legally permissible purposes. Tine Health does not use or disclose your Sensitive Personal Information to infer characteristics about you. If this changes in the future, we will provide a method for you to limit the use and disclosure of that information.
  • Right to Nondiscrimination. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by law, we will not (i) deny you goods or services, (ii) charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, (iii) provide you a different level or quality of goods or services, or (iv) suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services, because you exercised a right under the CCPA.
  • Right to Disclosure of Marketing Information. California’s Shine the Light Act (Civil Code sections 1798.83-1798.84) entitles California residents to request certain disclosures regarding Personal Information sharing with affiliates and/or third parties for marketing purposes.

We endeavor to respond to a verifiable Consumer Privacy Request from a California Consumer within 45 days of receipt as instructed. If we require more time, we will notify you in writing of the reason and extension period. We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. If we cannot comply with part or all of your request, we will explain the reasons in our response.
