If you ask us to delete it, you may no longer be able to access or use our Services. </p> <h3 id="exercise">How to exercise your access and deletion rights.</h3> <p> California residents may exercise their California privacy rights by by sending an email to <a href="mailto:californiaprivacypolicy@harpercollins.com">californiaprivacypolicy@harpercollins.com</a> or by contacting us at 1-800-277-3110. </p> <p> For security purposes, we will verify your identity – in part by requesting certain information from you -- when you request to exercise your California privacy rights. For instance, you may need to provide your name and email address. To request that we provide you with the specific pieces of personal information we have from you or to delete personal information we have collected from you, we may need to ask you for additional information to verify your identity. </p> <p> If you have an online account with us, logging into your account will serve to verify your identity and request, although we may request additional information if we believe your account has been compromised. If you do not have an account with us, or if we have reason to suspect that the security of your account is compromised, then we will request additional information from you to match with our existing records to verify your identity, depending on the nature of the request and the sensitivity of the information sought. </p> <p> Once we have verified your identity (and your agent, as applicable), we will respond to your request as appropriate: </p> <ul> <li> Where you have requested the categories of personal information that we have collected about you, we will describe the type and format of the information disclosure. </li> <li> Where you have requested specific pieces of personal information, we will provide the information you have requested, except where not permitted under applicable law or otherwise exempted by the CCPA. For instance, we may not disclose government ID or financial account number as such disclosure may create an unreasonable risk to your personal information, your account with us, or our business systems </li> <li> Where you have requested that we delete personal information that we have collected from you, we will delete, deidentify, or aggregate any information about you that is not necessary for the purposes indicated above. Certain information may be exempt from such requests under applicable law. </li> </ul> <p> If we are unable to complete your requests fully for any of the reasons above, we will provide you additional information about the reasons that we could not comply with your request. </p> <p> <strong><em>The right to nondiscrimination.</em></strong> We will not deny, charge different prices for, or provide a different level of quality of goods or services if you choose to exercise these rights. </p> <p> <strong><em>The right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information.</em></strong> California residents may opt out of the “sale” of their personal information. California law broadly defines sale such that it may include your contact information that may be “sold” to our subsidiaries and affiliated businesses or the Activity Information shared with select third parties as described in the <a href="/legal/privacy/#h5">Information We Share</a> section of our Privacy Notice. You have the right to opt out of the sale of your personal information. </p> <p> If you would like to opt out, you may do so as outlined on the following page: <a href="/legal/consent/">Do Not Sell My Personal Information</a> </p> <h3>Authorized Agents</h3> <p> You may also designate an agent to make requests to exercise your rights under CCPA as described above.
