11. Your Data Protection Rights under the California Privacy Protection Act
(CalOPPA)</strong >
CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites
and online services to post a privacy policy. The law’s reach stretches well
beyond California to require a person or company in the United States (and
conceivable the world) that operates websites collecting personally
identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous
privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected
and those individuals with whom it is being shared, and to comply with this
policy. According to CalOPPA we agree to the following:

1. users can visit our site anonymously;
2. our Privacy Policy link includes the word “Privacy”, and can easily be found
   on the home page of our website;
3. users will be notified of any privacy policy changes on our Privacy Policy
   Page;
4. users are able to change their personal information by emailing us at
   info@venusgeo.com.

Our Policy on “Do Not Track” Signals:
We honor Do Not Track signals and do not track, plant cookies, or use
advertising when a Do Not Track browser mechanism is in place. Do Not Track is
a preference you can set in your web browser to inform websites that you do
not want to be tracked. You can enable or disable Do Not Track by visiting the
Preferences or Settings page of your web browser.

12. Your Data Protection Rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act
(CCPA)</strong >
If you are a California resident, you are entitled to learn what data we
collect about you, ask to delete your data and not to sell (share) it. To
exercise your data protection rights, you can make certain requests and ask
us:

1. What personal information we have about you. If you make this request, we
   will return to you:
   
   1. The categories of personal information we have collected about you.
   2. The categories of sources from which we collect your personal
      information.
   3. The business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling your
      personal information.
   4. The categories of third parties with whom we share personal information.
   5. The specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you.
   6. A list of categories of personal information that we have sold, along
      with the category of any other company we sold it to. If we have not
      sold your personal information, we will inform you of that fact.
   7. A list of categories of personal information that we have disclosed for
      a business purpose, along with the category of any other company we

   delete the personal information we hold about you as of the date of your
   request from our records and direct any service providers to do the same. In
   some cases, deletion may be accomplished through de-identification of the
   information. If you choose to delete your personal information, you may not
   be able to use certain functions that require your personal information to
   operate.
3. To stop selling your personal information. We don’t sell or rent your
   personal information to any third parties for any purpose. We do not sell
   your personal information for monetary consideration. However, under some
   circumstances, a transfer of personal information to a third party, or
   within our family of companies, without monetary consideration may be
   considered a “sale” under California law. You are the only owner of your
   Personal Data and can request disclosure or deletion at any time. If you
   submit a request to stop selling your personal information, we will stop
   making such transfers. Please note, if you ask us to delete or stop selling
   your data, it may impact your experience with us, and you may not be able to
   participate in certain programs or membership services which require the
   usage of your personal information to function. But in no circumstances, we
   will discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

To exercise your California data protection rights described above, please
send your request(s) by email:
info@venusgeo.com.
