As a Connecticut resident, you also have the right to designate an agent to exercise these rights on your behalf. This section describes how to exercise those rights and our process for handling those requests, including our means of verifying your identity. If you would like further information regarding your legal rights under applicable law or would like to exercise any of them, please contact us here.

Accessing and Deleting Your Personal Information
Right to Request Access to Your Personal Information
Connecticut residents have the right to request that we disclose what categories of personal information that we collect, use, or sell about you. You may also request the specific pieces of personal information that we have collected about you. However, we may withhold some information where the risk to you, your personal information, or our business is too great to disclose the information.
Right to Request Deletion of Your Personal Information
You may also request that we delete any personal information that we have collected from/about you. However, we may retain personal information as authorized under applicable law, such as personal information required as necessary to provide our services, protect our business and systems from fraudulent activity, to debug and identify errors that impair existing functionality, as necessary for us, or others, to exercise their free speech or other rights, comply with law enforcement requests pursuant to lawful process, for scientific or historical research, for our own internal purposes reasonably related to your relationship with us, or to comply with legal obligations. We need certain types of information so that we can provide our services. If you ask us to delete it, you may no longer be able to access or use our services.
How to Exercise Your Access and Deletion Rights
Connecticut residents may exercise their Connecticut privacy rights by submitting your request here. While our contact form is the best way to reach us, you may also email us at [email protected]
For security purposes, we may request additional information from you to verify your identity when you request to exercise your Connecticut privacy rights.
If you have an online account with us, logging into your account will serve to verify your identity and request, although we may request additional information if we believe your account has been compromised. If you do not have an account with us, or if we have reason to suspect that the security of your account is compromised, we will request additional information from you to match with our existing records to verify your identity, depending on the nature of the request and the sensitivity of the information sought.
Once you submit a request to (1) access the categories of personal information we have about you or (2) obtain a copy of specific pieces of personal information we have about you, we will ask that you verify your identity by logging into your account using your username and password. If you don’t have an account with us, we will ask you to provide certain information so we can verify your identity. Once verified, we will provide you access to your information in a downloadable format.
To request that we delete personal information we have collected from you, you will need to authenticate with us by first logging into your account using your user name and password on file with us. Once you are logged in, we provide a way for you to delete your account.
If you wish to exercise any of these rights and do not have an account with us, please contact us here and we will request additional information to perform identity verification where possible.
