Please also provide a current California address for our response. You may make this request in writing to us at the below address. Any such request must include “California Privacy Rights Request” in the first line of the description, and include your name, street address, city, state and ZIP code.

Our Privacy Statement is designed to advise you about how we collect, use, protect, and disclose the information that we collect and/or receive about you. However, our Website may also contain links that lead to websites neither owned nor operated by us. As such, this Privacy Statement does not govern the practices of third parties, including partners, third-party service providers, and/or advertisers, even when those services are provided on our behalf or in partnership with us. Information gathered about you by others are governed by those distinct entities’ privacy policies. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you review the privacy policy of every website you visit.
We exercise no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third party site or services.
All of our Services, including our Website, are intended for adult audiences, and are not meant to address anyone under the age of 18 (“Children”). As such, Children under 18 may not use our Website. If you are under 18, do not attempt to register for or use any of our services, including our Website, and do not provide us any Personal Information about yourself.
We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from anyone under the age of 18. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has violated this Privacy Statement and provided us with Personal Information, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Information from children without verification of parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our servers.
From time to time, SNF InFocus may modify this Privacy Statement. We will notify you of any material changes to its Privacy Statement by posting those changes on this page and updating the Privacy Statement modification date above. We encourage you periodically to check back to this page for any updates.
As mentioned above, California residents have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your Personal Information over the past twelve (12) months. SNF InFocus will respond to an individual’s “verifiable request” to exercise his or her rights under such laws – that is, where we have received a request purporting to be from a particular individual, and we have been able to verify the individual’s identity. The need to verify an individual’s identity is critical to protecting your information, and ensuring that your information is not shared with anyone pretending to be you or someone who is not authorized to act as your agent on your behalf.
You may submit a verifiable request via our email address or mailing address, listed in the “Contact Us” section below, or as otherwise provided on our Website (if such means are available). We will ask you to provide information about yourself so that we can verify your identity as part of this process. This information may include your name, your address, your account information, and any other information deemed necessary by SNF InFocus to reasonably verify your identity, to ensure that your information is not shared with anyone impersonating you.
We may ask for additional information if we have difficulty confirming your identity. We will not share your information or honor other requests in those situations in which we are unable to confirm a request for your information is a “verifiable request.”
Under California law, a consumer can appoint an “authorized agent” to make certain verifiable requests upon their behalf, such as the right to know what information we collect about the consumer or to request deletion of the consumer’s information. Because the security and privacy of your information is paramount, we will ask that you identify and provide permission in writing for such persons to act as your authorized agent and exercise your applicable rights under California law in such situations. This may require us to contact you directly and alert you that an individual has claimed to be your agent and is attempting to access or delete your information. We will also independently verify your identity to ensure that an unauthorized person is not attempting to impersonate you and exercise your rights without authorization. We will not share your information or honor any other requests in those situations where you cannot or do not grant permission in writing for an identified authorized agent to act on your behalf, or where we cannot independently verify your identity.
If you have questions about this privacy statement, the practices of this site or your dealings with this site, please contact SNF InFocus:
Individuals with disabilities who are unable to usefully access our Privacy Statement online may contact us at the above-listed contact information to inquire how they can obtain a copy of our policy in another, more easily readable format.
