CCPA (CALIFORNIA CONSUMER PRIVACY ACT) AND CPRA (CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS ACT)


The CCPA grants California residents new rights regarding their personal information and imposes various data protection duties on certain entities conducting business in California.


In November 2020, California voters affirmed the passage of the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), which augments the state’s landmark California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) in several ways.


According to the CCPA, personal information is “information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household.”


Business or Commercial Purposes


We may use or disclose personal information we collect for “business purposes” or “commercial purposes” (as defined under the CCPA), which may include the following examples:

  • To operate and provide services, support, and respond to inquiries
  • To fulfill or meet the requirement you provided the information. For example, hence you provided your personal information to purchase a product or service, we will use that information to process your payment, complete the packaging and facilitate delivery.
  • Respond to law enforcement requests and as required by applicable law, court order, or governmental regulations.
  • For internal administrative and auditing purposes.
  • To detect security incidents and protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, including, when necessary, prosecuting those responsible for such activities.

Please note that the examples provided above are illustrative and not intended to be exhaustive. If we decide to collect additional categories of personal information or use the personal information for another purpose, we will update this Privacy Policy.

While we do not sell your personal information, we may share it to support our own operational purposes in providing Services to you. These operational purposes, known as “business purposes” under the CCPA, are described above.

Consumer Rights and Request Procedure


If you are a Californian resident, you have the following rights:

  • The right to know, at or before the point of collection, the categories of personal information collected by a business, the purposes for which such information is collected or used, and whether such information is sold or shared, as well as information regarding the length of time a business intends to retain each category of personal information;
  • The right to delete personal information collected from the consumer;
  • The right to opt-out of the sale of personal information (if applicable);
  • The right to opt-in to the sale of personal information of consumers under the age of 16 (if applicable);
  • The right to non-discriminatory treatment for exercising any rights; and
  • The right to initiate a private cause of action for data breaches.
  • The right to correct the inaccurate personal information; and
  • The right to limit the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information.

To use one or more of these rights, you can submit a verifiable consumer request to us by email at sales@pedalcommander.com.  We will review any request via email or otherwise as provided by us to verify your identity. We reserve the right to request additional information to verify your request. We will not use this additional information for anything other than to handle your request. 


We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.  We kindly ask you to provide the correct and complete information so that we may verify your identity and find a solution to your request. 

We will endeavor to fulfill your request within 45 days of receiving that request. If we require additional time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing through e-mail.

Please note however that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal, nor will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.


COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)


When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under 13, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, the nation’s consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children’s privacy and safety online. We do not specifically market to children under 13, or allow users under 18 without a legal guardian’s watch.


Fair Information Practices


The Fair Information Practices Principles form the backbone of privacy law in the United States and the concepts they include have played a significant role in the development of data protection laws around the globe. Understanding the Fair Information Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is critical to comply with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.


In order to be in line with Fair Information Practices, we will take the following responsive action, in case a data breach occurs:


We will notify the users via email within 7 business days. We also agree with the individual redress principle, which requires that individuals have a right to pursue legally enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or a government agency to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.
