Additional California Rights.
California’s “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our App that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to legal@c3industries.com.
3. Personal Information Disclosure to Third Parties.
C3 will NOT sell, rent, or give your personally identifying information to a third party, subject to the following exceptions: (i) if C3 asks for and receives your permission at the time the personal information is collected; (ii) in connection with a substantial corporate transaction, such as a sale of our Services or merger; or (iii) to third-party vendors or service providers that C3 works with for our Services (for example billing, payment processing, customer service, email deployment, business analytics, marketing, advertising, performance monitoring, hosting, and data processing). Notwithstanding the foregoing, C3 does not share or sell mobile telephone numbers or SMS opt-in data for job applicants and candidates with any third party or affiliate for marketing or lead-generation purposes. Any use of mobile telephone numbers for text messaging purposes is described in Section 4 below. These third parties may collect information about you when you interact with our Services. When you voluntarily provide personal information to C3, you grant C3 permission to share this information with such third parties for the purpose of carrying out these services. The third parties’ use of personal information is subject to their own privacy policies. These are independent software and/or service providers and C3 does not assume any liability about the information collection policies of these providers, or about any kind of issue, legal or otherwise, relating to them. If you do not want your personal information shared with these third parties, you should not use our Services. Your personal identifying information may be disclosed if we are compelled by law or legal process to disclose it. We cooperate with law enforcement inquiries, we obey court orders, and we honor subpoenas and other legal process. We may also disclose such information if we determine, in our sole discretion, that disclosure would be useful in connection with investigating possible non-compliance either with the law or any C3 policy, including this Policy and our Terms of Use, or in cases of injury to or interference with (whether intentionally or unintentionally) C3’s rights or property or those of anyone else who may be harmed by such actions, such as our users or visitors. We may also share aggregate information (information that is no longer linked to your personally identifiable information) about the users of our Services with our advertisers, business partners, sponsors and certain others. As mentioned above, this aggregate information is used to develop, improve and customize our Services to better serve our visitors. [C3 may also use Google Analytics, a Google tool that helps C3 analyze the User’s use of the Site. The information collected through said tool, including the user’s IP and URL of the internet page the user is surfing, is stored on Google servers. To C3’s knowledge, Google uses such information to evaluate the user’s use of our Services, and to generate reports for sites’ operators on the site’s activity and the internet use. Google may also transfer said information to third parties if required by law or if such third parties processes the information for Google. To C3’s knowledge, Google shall not connect the user’s IP with any other information possessed by Google.

4. SMS Communications.
C3 may use text messaging (SMS) to communicate with individuals who provide their mobile telephone number and consent to receive such messages, including job candidates communicating with C3’s Talent Acquisition team regarding recruiting and hiring-related matters. By providing your mobile telephone number and opting in, you consent to receive recurring SMS messages from C3 related to your candidacy or application. Consent to receive SMS messages is not a condition of employment or of being considered for any position with C3. Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply.

9. Security
The importance of security for all personally identifiable information associated with C3 users and visitors is important to us. We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers behind firewalls. C3 implements a variety of technologies to help secure our Services against unauthorized access and takes commercially reasonable efforts to protect the information visitors choose to provide to us. Any payment transactions will be encrypted using SSL technology. The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone. We urge you to be careful about giving out information in public forums. The information you share in public forums may be viewed by any user of our Services. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Services. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on our Services.

11. C3’s Parental Consent Policy.
Our Services are restricted to only those over the age of 21, or over the age of 18 with a valid medical marijuana registration card where applicable. C3 does not intend for and takes steps to prevent access to our Services by children, and C3 is committed to protecting the online privacy of children. In accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, C3 will not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of thirteen (13). If you are under 13, do not use or provide any information on our Services or through any of its features, register on our Services, make any purchases or orders through our Services, use any of the interactive features of our Services, or provide any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, email address, or any screen name or user name you may use. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please contact us at legal@c3industries.com. Residents of certain states under 13, 16, or 18 years of age may have additional rights regarding the collection and sale of their personal information.
12. Transfer of Personal Information Across Borders.
If you interact with C3 or provide your personal information to us, your personal information may be transferred to, processed and maintained on servers or databases in the U.S. The U.S. may have data protection laws that are less protective than the laws of the country in which you reside. By using our Services or providing us with any information, you consent to the transfer to, and processing, usage, sharing and storage of your information in the U.S., in accordance with this Policy. If you do not want your personal information transferred to or processed or maintained outside of the country or jurisdiction where you are located, you should not use our Services.
13. Do Not Track.
Our Services may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit us to count users who have visited those pages or opened an email and for other related website statistics. At this time, our Sites and applications do not respond to Do Not Track beacons sent by browser plugins. The information we collect automatically is only statistical data and does not include personal information, but we may maintain it or associate it with personal information we collect in other ways or receive from third parties.
14. Policy Changes.
As our business grows and changes, and as technology and Internet use and practices change, C3 may, from time to time, change its policies, including this Privacy Policy. Any changes we make to this Privacy Policy will be posted on this page. The date this Privacy Policy was last revised is identified at the top of the page. You are responsible for ensuring we have an up-to-date active and deliverable email address for you, and for periodically visiting our Services and this Privacy Policy to check for any changes.
