How to Exercise Your Rights

CDLMatch.com will respond to requests in accordance with applicable law if it can verify the identity of the individual submitting the request. California Consumers can exercise their rights in the following ways:

Requests By Authorized Agents

You may designate an authorized agent to exercise your right to know or your right to delete by submitting to us a completed "Authorized Agent Designation" form. You can obtain the designation form by contacting us at security@cdlmatch.com.

If an authorized agent submits a request to know or a request to delete on your behalf, the authorized agent must submit with the request either (a) a power of attorney that is valid under California law, or (b) a document signed by you that authorizes the authorized agent to submit the request on your behalf. In addition, we may ask you to follow the applicable process described herein for verifying your identity.

How We Will Verify Your Requests

The processes that we follow to verify that the person making a request to know or a request to delete is the person about whom we have collected personal information are described below. The relevant process depends on how and why the request is submitted.

Requests Through Your Password-Protected Account

If you created a password-protected account with us before the date of your request, we will rely on the fact that your request has been submitted through your account as verification of your identity. We will require that you re-authenticate yourself before we disclose your personal information in response to a request to know and before we delete your personal information in response to a request to delete.

You are responsible for protecting the security of your log-in credentials for your account. Please do not share your log-in credentials with anyone. If we suspect fraudulent or malicious activity on or from your account, we will not respond to a request to know or a request to delete until we have been able to confirm, through further verification procedures, that you made the request.

Requests Other Than Through A Password-Protected Account

If you submit a request by any means other than through a password-protected account that you created before the date of your request, the verification process that we follow will depend on the nature of your request as described below:

We have implemented the following additional procedures when verifying the identity of requestors:

  1. If we cannot verify your identity based on the processes described above, we may ask you for additional verification information. If we do so, we will permanently delete the verification information that you provide promptly after we have completed the verification process. We will not use that information for any purpose other than verification.
  2. If we cannot verify your identity to a sufficient level of certainty to respond to your request, we will let you know promptly and explain why we cannot verify your identity.

Requests to Opt Out of the Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

Once you have provided the requested information in the online form, your information will be removed from the data set provided to third parties. The third parties will also be notified of your request and directed to remove your information from their distribution lists. This type of request only applies to the sale or sharing of your Personal Information. CDLMatch.com will securely maintain your Personal Information and may use it for purposes that do not involve the sale or sharing of your Personal Information, in accordance with the CDLMatch.com’s Privacy Policy.
