As noted above, the retention periods are determined, among others, according to the types of Personal Information, and for example:

Customer account information.  We store your account information for as long as your account is active and a reasonable period thereafter in case you decide to re-activate your service.  

Contact information.

You further have the right to request a copy of Personal Information you provided to us in a portable format.

Right to non-discrimination for exercising your rights under the CCPA - the Company cannot (and does not) deny goods or services, charge you a different price, or provide a different level or quality of goods or services because a consumer exercised any of the consumer’s rights under the CCPA.  However, if you refuse to provide your Personal Information to the Company or ask it to delete or stop selling your Personal Information, and that Personal Information or sale is necessary for the Company to provide you with goods or services, the Company may not be able to complete that transaction. Pursuant to the CCPA, the Company is permitted to charge a consumer a different price or rate, provide a different level of service, offer you promotions, discounts and other deals in exchange for collecting, keeping, or selling your Personal Information, if that difference and the financial incentive offered is reasonably related to the value of your Personal Information. If you ask to delete or stop selling your Personal Information, you may not be able to continue participating in the special deals offered in exchange for Personal Information.

Right to delete – you have the right to request that the Company delete Personal Information that it has collected about you.  There are exceptions to this right and the common reasons why the Company does not have to delete your Personal Information include: where the Company cannot verify your request; if it is reasonably necessary to complete a transaction with you, to provide services or for certain warranty and product recall purposes; if retention of Personal Information is needed to comply with our legal obligations, exercise legal claims or rights, or defend legal claims; if retention of Personal Information is needed for certain business security practices or certain internal uses that are compatible with reasonable consumer expectations or the context in which the information was provided; if information is exempt from the CCPA, and as otherwise provided in the CCPA. 

Right to correct inaccurate Personal Information – you have the right to request that the Company correct any inaccurate Personal Information that it maintains about you.

Right to opt out of “sale” or “sharing” of Personal Information – as detailed above, the Company’s practice of using advertising cookies (used for cross-context behavioral advertising known as “targeting”) in its Website falls under the definition of “Sale” and “Share” under the CCPA.  You have the right to opt-out from cookies using our Cookies Setting tool, where you can further change your preferences at any time. We will also process any opt-out of sale/sharing preference signal that meets the requirements set forth in the CCPA and its regulations.  In addition, you may request that the Company not sell or share your Personal Information should the Company decide in the future to sell or share Personal Information to third parties (as shall be detailed under this CCPA Notice).  To exercise this right please go to https://www.idt.net/ccpa-do-not-sell and complete the form.  

Right to limit use and disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information – the Company does not use your Sensitive Personal Information (as defined in the CCPA) for purposes other than as set forth in the CCPA.  Nonetheless, you have the right to direct the Company to limit its use of your Sensitive Personal Information to that use which is necessary for the Company to perform the services and provide the goods you requested from the Company.  To exercise this right please go to https://www.idt.net/ccpa-do-not-sell and complete the form.

Authorized Agents 

“Authorized Agents” may submit opt out requests on a consumer’s behalf. If you have elected to use an authorized agent, or if you are an authorized agent who would like to submit requests on behalf of a consumer, the following procedures will be required prior to acceptance of any requests by an authorized agent on behalf of a California consumer. Usually, we will accept requests from qualified third parties on behalf of other consumers, regardless of either the consumer or the authorized agent’s state of residence, provided that, the Company may require that the consumer do the following: provide the authorized agent signed permission to do so or power of attorney; verify their own identity directly with the Company; directly confirm with the Company that they provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request. The Company may deny a request from an authorized agent that does not submit proof that they have been authorized by the consumer to act on their behalf.

Verification of Consumer Requests.  

In order to comply with a consumer request, the Company must reasonably verify the requestor.  A record of each request is made as soon as it is received by our data protection team.  The Company will use all reasonable measures to verify the identity of the individual making the request.  We will utilize the requested data to ensure that we can verify the requestor’s identity and where we are unable to do so, we may contact you for further information, or ask you to provide evidence of your identity prior to responding to your request.  This is to protect your data and rights.  If a third party, relative or representative is requesting the data on your behalf, we will verify their authority to act for you and may contact you and them to confirm you and their identity and gain your authorization prior to responding to the request.

Responding to Consumer Requests  

The Company will attempt to confirm receipt of each request by contacting the requestor either at the email or telephone number submitted, through the consumer’s account or by other electronic means.  The Company will attempt to verify each request and if it is able to verify a request will provide a response (if necessary and applicable) within 45 days of the receipt of the request, which time period may be extended by the Company for an additional 45 days.  If a delay is necessary, the Company will contact the requestor within the original 45 days period and provide the reasons for the delay.  The Company may charge a fee or refuse to act on any request that is manifestly unfounded or excessive.  All the Company responses shall be in writing and cover the previous 12 months period unless the consumer requests information beyond the 12 months period (only applies to personal information collected on or after January 1, 2022).  Where possible the response shall be sent through the consumer’s account.  Otherwise, the response shall be sent by mail or electronically.  The Company is not obligated to provide a response to a consumer more than two times in any 12 months period.  The CCPA contains certain exemptions and exceptions to the exercise of some of these rights.  If one or more of those exemptions or exceptions applies to your request, then we may not be able to act upon your request.  Where possible we will inform you of the reasons for not acting upon your request.
