Personal information we collect

During your use of the websites, you may be asked to voluntarily provide certain personal information for purposes such as facilitating communications with you or for applying for access to certain special features or areas of the websites. This may include such information as name, address, telephone numbers, company name, job function, and email address.

We also automatically collect certain usage details, IP addresses, and Browser information. When you visit our website, we collect technical information such as the identity of your Internet Protocol (IP) address, your computer or device’s operating system and browser type, geo-location data, and the pages of our website that you visit. Most browsers transmit this type of information to websites automatically. We collect this information to administer and manage our website, to ensure that it functions properly and to review aggregate information.

Except as described above, we do not collect any personal information about you other than personal information which you expressly choose to submit to us directly or through our service providers.

How we use the information we collect

We use the information collected from us and/or our services providers (e.g., Amazon Web Services, WP Engine, and others)

  • to contact and correspond with you, to respond to your inquiries,
  • to improve our website,
  • to allow you to participate in interactive features of our website when you choose to do so,
  • to monitor the usage of our website,
  • to detect, prevent, and address technical issues,
  • to analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movements around the website, and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.

 

We may also use information we collect to analyze user behavior as a measure of interest in, and use of our websites, and may disclose such analyses to advertisers or other third parties in the form of aggregate data, such as overall patterns or demographic reports that do not describe or identify any individual user.

We may disclose personal information about you to third parties: (i) if we have a good-faith belief that we are permitted or required to do so by law or legal process, (ii) to service providers who require access to such information for the carrying out of their mandate, (iii) to respond to legal claims, (iv) to protect our rights, property or safety or the rights, property or safety of others, or (v) to the resulting organization if we are involved in a merger or other reorganization.

Such transfers may include third parties located in other countries (such as Canada, Mexico, Caribbean, South America and EU countries). We have not confirmed that all such countries apply the same standards as required under the European General Data Privacy Regulations (“GDPR”); therefore, some risk exists regarding such transfers if the third parties are in countries where the European Commission has not made an adequacy determination nor adopted appropriate safeguards.

User-provided information and other parties

If you post information on our websites, or disclose it to any other party through any of our websites, you should be aware that your information may then be made available to others.

It is important that the personal information we have about you is accurate.

We are not responsible for any losses that could arise from any inaccurate, deficient, or incomplete personal information that you provide us.

For security reasons, we may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity, before we correct, update or delete any personal information you provide us.

We will have no liability for disclosure of your information due to errors or unauthorized acts of third parties during transmission.

California Residents

This section of our Privacy Policy supplements the terms of the Privacy Policy. This section applies only to persons who are California residents.

The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA” or “Act”), where applicable, grants residents of the State of California certain privacy rights in their personal information. However, CCPA’s requirements apply only to those entities that meet its definition of “business.” We do not meet that definition, and therefore we are not a “business” as defined by the CCPA. Nonetheless, we will endeavor to act in accordance with the CCPA to the extent that it is reasonable for us to do so. Because CCPA does not apply to us, all of the provisions below are subject to our sole discretion.

Personal Information

The CCPA defines personal information as information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household.

Personal information under the CCPA, however, does not include the following:

  • Deidentified or aggregated consumer information.
  • Publicly available information from federal, state, or local government records.

Other information is excluded from the scope of the CCPA:

  • Medical or health information covered by the Health Insurance and Portability and Accountability Act of 1966 (“HIPAA”) and the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (“CIMIA”).
  • Personal information covered by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GBLA”), and the California Financial Information Privacy Act (“FIPA”).
  • Personal information covered by the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act of 1994.
  • Personal information collected, processed, disclosed, or sold for use in a report or by the user of a report under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”).

The categories of personal information collected and the purposes for which personal information may be used are described above in the sections entitled “Personal information we collect,” “How we use the information we collect,” and “User-provided information and other parties.”

Your CCPA Privacy Rights

The CCPA, where applicable, provides California residents with the right to request for disclosure of:

  • Categories of any personal information collected about you.
  • Specific pieces of personal information collected about you.
  • Categories of sources of any personal information collected about you.
  • The business or commercial purpose for collection or selling personal information.
  • Categories of third parties with whom your personal information was shared.
  • Categories of any personal information disclosed about you for a business purpose in the preceding 12 months.
  • Your right to request deletion of any personal information about you that was collected from you, subject to certain exceptions outlined below.
  • Your right not to receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of your privacy rights conferred by CCPA.

Requests to delete Personal Information

CCPA, where applicable, provides a right to request that deletion of any of your personal information collected from you. This must be made in a verifiable request. Once we receive and confirm your request, we will delete the information from our records unless an exception applies. CCPA, where applicable, provides that we are not required to comply with a request to delete personal information if the information is necessary to:

  • Comply with a legal obligation.
  • Complete the transaction for which the information was collected, provide a good or service you requested, perform a contract with you, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law, or take actions reasonably anticipated in the context of our ongoing business relationship with you.
  • Detect security incidents, protect against deceptive, malicious, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or to prosecute those responsible for that activity.
  • Debug products, services, or applications to identify and repair errors that impair existing functionality.
  • Exercise free speech rights, ensure the rights of others to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided by law.
  • Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code §1546, Seq.).
  • Enable solely internal uses that are compatible with the context in which the personal information was provided.

How to exercise your Privacy Rights

You can exercise these rights in several ways. You can make a request by calling (888) 363-7997, by submitting a request via email at privacy@trumanvodka.com, by submitting a request on our website, www.trumanvodka.com or by sending a written request to Truman Vodka LLC, 100 South Biscayne Boulevard, Suite 3117, Miami, Florida 33131, Attention: Privacy Department. Additionally, regarding sale of personal information as defined in CCPA, you may make that request at our “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” form at www.trumanvodka.com/do-not-sell-my-data. At this time, however, Truman Vodka has no intent to sell any personal data in collects.

 

You may make the request on your own behalf or on behalf of your minor child. Another person who is legally authorized to act on your behalf may also submit a request for you. Please describe your request in sufficient detail to allow us to understand the nature of the request, evaluate and respond to it. Because CCPA allows certain disclosures and actions only upon receipt of a “verifiable consumer request,” please provide sufficient information with you request to allow us to verify that you are the person, or an authorized representative of that person, about whom we collected personal information.

How we will verify and respond

Before we respond to any request involving personal information, CCPA, where applicable, requires that we confirm the identity of the person making the request, and if the request is made on behalf of another person, his or her authority to make the request on the other person’s behalf. Accordingly, we reserve the right to deny any request where we are unable to satisfactorily confirm the identity or the right of the person to make the request. We will attempt to verify your identity by matching any information provided in the request against the personal information already in our possession. If you have authorized someone else to make a request on your behalf, we will attempt to verify the identity of that person and that you have authorized that person to submit a request on your behalf, which may include requesting a copy of any written authorization or power of attorney applicable to the request.

The amount of information we may require in our verification process will depend on a variety of factors including the nature of the request, the type, sensitivity, and value of the personal information in our possession, the potential risk of harm that could result from unauthorized access or deletion of your personal information, the likelihood that fraudulent or malicious actors would seek your information, and whether the information provided to us is sufficient to protect against fraudulent requests or being fabricated or spoofed. For example, we may require more points of confirmation if the request is to disclose specific pieces of information rather than only categories of information in our possession.

During our verification process, we may request additional information from you. Any such additional information will be used only for purposes of verification of the request.

We will endeavor to respond within forty-five (45) days of receipt of a verifiable consumer request. If, however, we are unable to respond within that time, we will notify you of the reason and the additional time needed to make our response. CCPA permits us to extend the time of our response by up to an additional 45 days.

If we deny a request in whole or in part, we will explain the reasons for our denial.

CCPA’s Limitations on Disclosures

We are not obligated under CCPA to respond to any request where compliance or disclosure would violate an evidentiary privilege under California law or conflict with federal or state law.

CCPA does no require that we provide personal information to a consumer more than twice in a twelve month period. Any disclosures we make in response to a request will cover only the twelve month period preceding the request.

We will not charge a fee to process or respond to your request and will provide the information free of charge. Where a person’s requests are repetitive, manifestly unfounded, or excessive, CCPA authorizes us to either charge a reasonable fee that takes into account our administrative costs, or refuse to act on the request and notify the person making the request the reason for our refusal. If we determine that a request warrants a fee, we will explain our decision and will endeavor to provide a cost estimate.

Regulations proposed by the California Attorney General prohibit us from disclosing specific pieces of personal information if the disclosure creates a substantial, articulable, and unreasonable risk to the security of that information or the security of our systems or networks. The proposed regulations further prohibit us from disclosing in response to a consumer’s request a Social Security Number, driver’s license number, other government identification number, financial account numbers, health insurance or medical identification numbers, account passwords, or security questions and answers.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. This means, for instance, that we will not deny you services or charge you a different price, including a discount or other benefit, or impose a penalty for the exercise of your CCPA rights.

Other California Privacy Rights

The California Civil Code permits California Residents with whom we have an established business relationship to request that we provide you with a list of certain categories of personal information that we have disclosed to third-parties for their direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year. To make such a request please send an email to privacy@trumanvodka.com. Please mention that you are making a “California Shine the Light” inquiry.

Visitors from Outside the United States

If you are visiting our website from outside the United States (“U.S.”), any information you voluntarily provide via our website and any technical information from the browser of your computer, tablet, or mobile device will be transferred out of your country and into the U.S. where we are located. The protections available to the privacy of your personal information in the U.S. may significantly differ from the protections available in your country. If you do not want any personal information to be transferred to the U.S., please do not provide that information to us via our websites.

Visitors from the European Union

On May 25, 2018 the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) went into effect in the European Union (“EU”). The GDPR extends certain rights to natural persons in the EU involving the privacy of their personal information.

We are the data controller for any personal information provided to us from persons in the EU. We do not have a representative in the EU. As noted earlier, we may transfer your personal data to another country or international organization as needed.

We will retain any personal information that you provide us for as long as necessary to fulfill the business purposes for which it was provided and to meet legal obligations, unless you request that information be deleted at an earlier date. If that information is subject to a litigation hold, or is required to assert or defend a legal claim, then we will hold that information until the claim or action is finally resolved.

The GDPR grants EU residents with the right to request that we update, correct, or complete his or her personal information, and to delete or erase any of that personal information from our records. It grants EU residents with the right to object to processing of personal information in certain instances, such as for direct marketing purposes. The GDPR also grants EU residents with the right to restrict the processing of personal information when you believe the information in our possession is inaccurate, that our processing is unlawful, that we no longer need the information for purposes of the processing, or where you have objected to that processing. You may withdraw your consent at any time to our possession or processing of your personal information. EU residents also have a right to request access to their personal information, and to request certain information about its processing. The GDPR also grants EU residents with the right to obtain a copy of any personal information that is processed by automated means which you voluntarily provided to us in a commonly used, structured, machine-readable format, or to have that information transferred to another controller when it is technically feasible. An EU resident can exercise any of these rights by sending an email to privacy@trumanvodka.com.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority of an EU member state.

We will review any requests we receive from EU residents and will endeavor to respond in a timely manner. For security reasons, we may request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity before taking action on any request, and to ensure your right of access and the exercise of any GDPR right does not adversely affect the rights of others.

We reserve the right to refuse to act on a request, or to charge a reasonable administrative fee when a request is either manifestly unfounded or excessive because of its repetitive character, and to charge a reasonable administrative fee to requests for further or additional copies

Changes to this policy

We reserve the right to change or update this policy, or any other policies or practices, at any time, at our sole discretion, and without notice or liability to you or any other person. Any changes or updates will be effective immediately upon posting to any of the websites. The collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information by us will be governed by the version of this policy in effect at that time. New versions of this policy will be posted here. Your continued use of the websites will signify that you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information in accordance with the changed policy. Accordingly, we recommend that you periodically review this policy to ensure that you are familiar with its most current version.
