If you are a California resident, you may exercise the following rights.
Right to Know and Access. You may submit a verifiable request for information regarding the: (1) categories of Personal Information collected or disclosed by us; (2) purposes for which categories of Personal Information are collected by us; (3) categories of sources from which we collect Personal Information; and (4) specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you during the past twelve months.
Right to Delete. Subject to certain exceptions, you have the option to delete Personal Information about you that we have collected from you.
Verification. Requests for access to or deletion of Personal Information are subject to our ability to reasonably verify your identity in light of the information requested and pursuant to relevant CPRA requirements, limitations, and regulations.
Right to Equal Service and Price. You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of your CPRA privacy rights, subject to certain limitations.
Shine the Light. We do not rent, sell, or share your Personal Information with nonaffiliated companies for their direct marketing or behavioral-based targeted advertising purposes, unless we have your permission.
Right to Rectification. You have the right to request correction to any of your Personal Information stored or processed by us that is inaccurate.
Right to Limit Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information. We will notify you if we intend to use or disclose your sensitive personal information for purposes other than that which is necessary for the provision of services. However, you have the right to request us to limit the use of your sensitive personal information to that which is necessary to provide the service(s) to you.
Submit Requests. To exercise your rights, or to authorize an agent to make a request on your behalf, you can contact us at:
Only you, or a person who we can confirm you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. Verifying your request will require you to provide sufficient information for us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected personal information or a person authorized to act on your behalf (e.g., previous transactions of person to whom request relates). Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. CPRA precludes Agena Bioscience from completing your request if we are unable to verify your identity.
We will only use the personal information that you have provided in a verifiable request in order to verify your request. As stated above, we cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority.
You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:
We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response to you electronically. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
We reserve the right to amend this privacy notice at our discretion and at any time. When we make changes to this notice, we will notify you through a notice on our website homepage.
