Exercising Your Rights
Depending on where you live, the rights described in this supplement may apply to you. To exercise your rights compatible with applicable law, please submit a verifiable consumer request via 800.266.9455 or privacy@cars.com.
A. Verifiable Consumer Requests
Your verifiable consumer request must provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected information, and describe your request in sufficient detail that allows us to properly respond to it. We cannot respond to your request if we cannot verify your identity and confirm that the information relates to you.
Only you, or someone legally authorized 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. To designate an authorized agent, please contact us via the methods noted above. If you are a California resident, you can designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf only if: (1) the authorized agent is a natural person or a business entity registered with the Secretary of State of California; and (2) you sign a written declaration that you authorize the authorized agent to act on your behalf. If you use an authorized agent under California law to submit a request to exercise your rights, please have the authorized agent take the following steps in addition to the steps described above:
• Mail a copy of your signed written declaration authorizing the authorized agent to act on your behalf; and• Provide any information we request in our response to your email to verify your identity. The information requested will depend on your prior interactions with us and the sensitivity of the personal information at issue.
If you provide an authorized agent with power of attorney pursuant to California Probate Code sections 4121 to 4130, it may not be necessary to perform these steps and we will respond to any request from such authorized agent in accordance with the CCPA.
California, Iowa, Kentucky, Minnesota, Nebraska, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia residents may make a verifiable consumer request twice within a 12-month period, free of charge, unless the request 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. Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Maryland, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Utah residents may make a verifiable consumer request, free of charge, once within a 12-month period; subsequent requests from residents in these states may warrant a fee.
B. Response Time
We will respond to verifiable consumer requests within the time allotted under applicable law, generally forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 45 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing in compliance with applicable law.
C. Response Content
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 useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance in compliance with applicable law.
