California and Texas Consumers have the right to submit a verifiable request to correct inaccurate Personal Information maintained by the Company or on its behalf, taking into account the nature of the Personal Information and the purposes of processing the Personal Information.
The Company will respond to requests in accordance with applicable law if it can verify the identity of the individual submitting the request. California and Texas Consumers may exercise their rights in the following ways:
You may designate an authorized agent to exercise your rights by submitting to us a completed “Authorized Agent Designation” form. You may obtain the designation form by contacting us at IP3@jbhunt.com.
If an authorized agent submits a request to know or a request to delete on your behalf, the authorized agent must submit with the request either (a) a power of attorney that is valid under California or Texas law, as applicable, or (b) a document signed by you that authorizes the authorized agent to submit the request on your behalf. In addition, we may ask you to follow the applicable process described above for verifying your identity
The processes that we follow to verify that the person making a request to exercise their rights is the person about whom we have collected personal information are described below. The relevant process depends on how and why the request is submitted.
If you created a password-protected account with us before the date of your request, we will rely on the fact that your request has been submitted through your account as verification of your identity. We will require that you re-authenticate yourself before we disclose your personal information in response to a request to know and before we delete your personal information in response to a request to delete.
You are responsible for protecting the security of your log-in credentials for your account. Please do not disclose your log-in credentials to anyone. If we suspect fraudulent or malicious activity on or from your account, we will not respond to a request to know or a request to delete until we have been able to confirm, through further verification procedures, that you made the request.
If you submit a request by any means other than through a password-protected account that you created before the date of your request, the verification process that we follow will depend on the nature of your request as described below:
We have implemented the following additional procedures when verifying the identity of requestors:
Once you have provided the requested information in the online form, your information will be removed from the data set provided to third parties. The third parties will also be notified of your request and directed to remove your information from their distribution lists. This type of request only applies to the sale or sharing of your Personal Information. The Company will securely maintain your Personal Information and may use it for purposes that do not involve the sale or sharing of your Personal Information, in accordance with the Company’s Privacy Policy.
Texas Consumers have the right to appeal any decision the Company makes with respect to a request to exercise privacy rights. If, after thorough review, the Company determines that we cannot or will not comply with a request, we will notify you in writing and provide a form by which you may appeal the decision. Any appeal must be submitted within ten (10) business days after you receive such notice. After reviewing your timely appeal, we will inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response to your appeal and the reasons for such action or inaction.
Consumers have the right not to be subject to discriminatory treatment by the Company for exercising their privacy rights under applicable state laws, and the Company will not discriminate on that basis. However, the Company may charge a California or Texas Consumer a different price or rate or provide a different level or quality of goods or services if the difference is reasonably related to the value provided to the California or Texas Consumer by the Consumer’s Personal Information. If the Company does so, it will provide Consumers with any legally required notice.
