Please make sure to state that you are a California Resident. When validating a request, we may require additional information to verify your identity and determine the validity of such request for information in compliance with the CCPA.

Scope of Notice

This notice applies to personal information we collect about California residents both online and offline. It applies to California residents who are users of our websites; our customers; event attendees; individuals inquiring about our services; and all other California residents from whom we collect personal information.

As defined in the CCPA, personal information includes any information that identifies, relates to, or could reasonably be linked to a California resident or household. It includes identifiers, characteristics of protected classes, commercial information, biometrics, internet or electronic information, geolocation data, audio/visual or similar information, employment and educational information, and inferences drawn from any identifiable information. Personal information does not include publicly available information from a public government record.

This notice does not apply to information that is exempt from CCPA disclosure requirements. This includes personal information of individuals acting in their capacity as representatives of our customers, prospect customers, vendors, and other businesses that we conduct business with to the extent the information is collective with respect to a business-to-business transaction or business relationship.

This disclosure also does not apply to individuals who are not California residents, any personal information exempted under Cal. Civ. Code Section 1798.145, or any other personal information not contemplated in the CCPA.

Rights of California Residents Under the CCPA

If you are a resident of the State of California, you have the following additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA):

Right to Know:

California residents may request that we disclose the following about the personal information we have used or collected over the 12-month period preceding a request:

• Categories of personal information collected;
• Specific pieces of personal information not otherwise protected by another form of privacy protection or subject to an exception;

Right to Opt-Out of Sale:

Subject to exceptions, California residents may “opt-out” of allowing us to sell your personal information to third parties:

• Shor-Line does not sell information to third parties (such as advertisers or affiliated companies) for any valuable consideration (such as for marketing purposes). Therefore, we do not maintain a list of third parties with whom we sell personal information. If that changes, we will update our privacy notice.
• We do contract with third parties to provide website analytics. These companies maintain their own privacy policies and information provided to them is subject to such privacy policies and notices.

Right to Delete

Subject to exceptions, California residents may request we delete their personal information.

• • Exceptions include, but are not limited to, information necessary for the following activities:
    • Completing a transaction or service the individual requested;
    • Detecting security incidents or identifying and repairing functionality issues;
    • Complying with state or federal law or another legal obligation; and
    • Solely internal activities aligning with the reasonable expectations of the consumers based on their business relationship with us.

Right to Non-Discrimination

California residents must receive equal service and pricing even if they exercise their privacy rights under the CCPA. However, if California residents opt-out or request deletion of personal information necessary for us to provide a particular good or service, such good or service may not be completed or may be limited.

Sources of Personal Information

We may collect the above information directly from an individual, automatically through website cookies, and from third parties such as customers, government entities, public record,  and other individuals and entities we interact with during the course of our business.

Purposes of Collecting, using, and disclosing Personal Information

As stated above, we use your information for the legitimate interest of communicating with customers, prospective customers, and other users about our products, events and publications related to developments in the animal care industry. We also collect information online which improves the performance, functionality and use of our website as well as for social media purposes through website cookies. We ask for your consent when requesting information outside of what you may reasonably expect from an animal equipment provider and that has a more significant privacy impact.

Categories of Information Provided to Third Parties

As stated above, we occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, including website development and operation, preparing marketing materials, sending postal mail or email, analyzing website use, processing payments and processing data. We will only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service, and they are contractually prohibited from using that information for any other reason.

Some third-party contractors collect information through the use of website cookies for analytical purposes on our website, this collection practice is outlined in our Cookie Policy. Such information collected is governed by the third-party entities privacy policies.

We also may disclose your information in special cases related to our legal obligations and to protect from the misuse of our websites. We may share your personal information in regard to legal proceedings if stemming from a violation of our Terms of Use or causing injury to us, our property, our website, our clients or others. We may disclose visitor information when subpoenaed, if ordered or otherwise required by a court of law, arbitrator, or other similar proceeding, for government investigations, with government agencies if required by law, and when we otherwise believe in good faith that any applicable law requires it.
