In some cases, we may also need you to provide us with additional information to verify your identity and the nature of your request. We will take reasonable steps to respond to all requests within 45 days.

After you delete your Data with us, we will not be able to reinstate this account, nor will we be able to link another request or contact with your account. Please note that we keep a record or log of all deletion requests for at least 24 months, which record retention does not violate the CCPA. We are not required to delete any requested data if (1) that information is required to complete a transaction for which the Personal Information was collected; (2) keeping the Personal Information is reasonably anticipated within the context of the Chef's Culinary Journey ongoing business relationship with you; or (3) the request is unverifiable. We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to: 

        1. Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you;

        2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities;

        3. Debug to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;

        4. Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law;

        5. Comply with the New Jersey Electronic Communications Privacy Act (NJ. Penal Code § 1546 seq.);

        6. Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information's deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research's achievement, if you previously provided informed consent;

        7. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us; or

        8. Comply with a legal obligation.

      5. Right to Opt-Out-of-SaleYou have the right to opt-out-of-sale of your Personal Information with Chef's Culinary Journey. Under the CCPA, the word "sell" has a broad definition, and includes any transfer or sharing of data, even for internal business purposes, or to provide the services/products. Please note that WE NEVER offer the Personal Information that we collect for sale to third parties. Personal Information is only used to provide our Services and is shared with required providers, such as our payment processors. Rest assured, they are bound by strict data privacy practices, and do not share or sell your information either. If you choose to opt-out-of-sale, we may not be able to honor your request as we are not obligated to honor requests (1) where information is required to complete a transaction for which the personal information was collected; (2) where keeping the personal information is reasonably anticipated within the context of Chef's Culinary Journey ongoing business relationship with you; or (3) the request is unverifiable. To exercise your opt-out-of-sale right, please email us at hello@ccjcaterers.com, visit your My Data page through your account, or visit our "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" page located here https://www.ccjcaterers.com/b/do-not-sell-my-personal-information/.

      6. How to exercise your rightsTo exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either: 

        1. Emailing hello@ccjcaterers.com with "New Jersey Privacy Rights" in the subject line; or

        2. Accessing your Account under "My Account" and "Privacy";

        3. Calling our number 908.652.3571

        Only you or a person registered with the New Jersey Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

        You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must (i) provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative, and (ii) describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

        We will not be able respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. However, if you do have an account with us, you can make a verifiable request through your account. We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

      7. Response Timing and Format.

        We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days total), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing within the initial 45-day period. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by email electronically, at your option. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request's receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily usable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

        By writing to us, you agree to receive communication from us seeking information from you in order to verify you as the consumer from whom we have collected the data and such other information as reasonably required to enable us to honor your request.

        We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is 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.

    5. Non-DiscriminationWe will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not (i) deny you goods or services; (ii) charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties; (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. However, if you request to delete, stop processing, or anonymize or de-identify your Personal Information, or delete your account, you will not be entitled to any outstanding and/or earned rewards, store credit, points, or similar offers or promotions associated with your account, we will be unable to process any refunds, and you may not be able to use the Services depending on the information affected.
