Legal Information
CCPA Addendum
This Addendum supplements the ClickSend Privacy Policy as well as any other agreement you have with us, such as the ClickSend Terms of Service or other agreement for the use of our services. Any terms we use in this Addendum that are not defined here will have the meanings we give them in those agreements.
Introduction
This section applies to you if you are a resident of the state of California. California law requires us to disclose certain information regarding the categories of personal information we collect.
In this Addendum, “personal information” has the meaning provided by the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”) and does not include information that is publicly available, that is de-identified or aggregated such that it is not capable of being associated with us, or that is excluded from the CCPA’s scope, such as personal information covered by certain sector-specific privacy laws, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Gramm Leach Bliley Financial Modernization Act or the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act of 1994. This section does not apply to information relating to our employees, contractors, applicants, and other personnel.
For the purposes of the CCPA, we act as a service provider for our customers. For our customers, we act a business, which means we may use data from our customers for our own business purposes.
Regardless of whether we are acting as a business or a service provider, we process, retain, use, and disclose personal information only as necessary to provide the services we have agreed to provide. We use the personal information we have strictly for business purposes. Regardless, we will not:
-
sell your personal information or your end users’ personal information;
-
process your personal information for any commercial purpose other than providing the services; or
-
retain, use, or disclose your personal information outside of the scope of the agreement we have with you.

How to Exercise your Rights
To exercise any of the above rights, please contact us as follows
https://clicksend.com/helpOnly you, or a person that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information.
You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:
-
Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
-
Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
-
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.
Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that specific account.
We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.
Response Timing and Format
We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.
If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.
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.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it 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.
