California Privacy Rights
The following section pertains to the rights of individuals or households in California (“California consumers”).
Civil Code Section 1798.83
Under certain circumstances, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 states that, upon receipt of a request by a California consumer, a business may be required to provide detailed information regarding how that business has shared that customer’s Personal Information with third parties for direct marking purposes. However, the foregoing does not apply to businesses like ours that do not disclose Personal Information to third parties for direct marketing purposes without prior approval or give you a free mechanism to opt out of having their Personal Information disclosed to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
Rights under the CCPA
As of January 1, 2020, the CCPA (California Civil Code Section 1798.100 et seq.) provides California consumers with additional rights regarding Personal Information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly with a particular consumer or household. The categories of Personal Information are generally described above but differ for individual consumers depending on the Services used by such consumers.
Under the CCPA, qualifying California consumers may have the following rights:
Right to Know and Right to Delete.
A California consumer has the right to request that we disclose what Personal Information we collect, use, disclose and sell. A California consumer also has the right to submit requests to delete Personal Information.
When we receive a request to know or delete from a California consumer, we will confirm receipt of the request within 10 business days and provide information about how we will process the request, including our verification process. We will respond to such requests within 45 days.
Our obligation to delete Personal Information is not required regarding information necessary, among other things: (1) to provide our Services or Products; (2) to detect and resolve issues related to security or functionality; (3) to comply with legal obligations, including our responsibilities and obligations, and privileges; (4) to exercise free speech or to ensure another’s exercise of free speech; or (5) for internal purposes that a consumer might expect.
Right for Disclosure of Information.
A California consumer may also submit requests that we disclose specific types or categories of Personal Information that we collect.
Under certain circumstances, we will not provide such information, including where the disclosure creates a substantial, articulable and unreasonable risk to the security of that Personal Information, or the security of our systems or networks. We also will not disclose California consumers’ social security numbers, driver’s license numbers or other government-issued identification numbers, financial account numbers, any health insurance or medical identification numbers, or account passwords and security questions and answers. Our obligations to disclose information are also subject to legal restrictions placed on us, including our duty to protect information from disclosure, or restrictions placed by legal or court authority.
Submitting Requests
If you are a California consumer and would like to make any requests under the CCPA, please direct them as follows:
Mailing Address:Liquid I.V.777 S. Aviation Boulevard, Suite 105El Segundo, CA 90245E-mail Address:info@liquid-iv.comTelephone Number:(855) 386-4021
Verifying Requests
If we receive any request we will use a two-step process for online requests where the California consumer must first, clearly submit the request and then second, separately confirm the request. We will use other appropriate measures to verify requests received by mail or telephone.
In submitting a request, a California consumer must provide sufficient information to identify the consumer, such as name, e-mail address, home or work address, or other such information that is on record with us so that we can match such information to the Personal Information that we maintain. Do not provide social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, account numbers, credit or debit card numbers, medical information or health information with requests. If requests are unclear or submitted through means other than outline above, we will provide the California consumer with specific directions on how to submit the request or remedy any deficiencies. If we cannot verify the identity of the requestor, we may deny the request.
California Do Not Track Disclosures
Although some browsers currently offer a “do not track (‘DNT’) option,” no common industry standard for DNT exists. We therefore do not currently commit to responding to browsers’ DNT signals.
Rights of EEA Residents
This section of the Privacy Policy is applicable to residents of the European Economic Area (“EEA”). The EEA consists of the member states of the European Union, i.e., Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Republic of Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom, and Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway. This section also applies to residents of Switzerland and, in the event of its departure from the EU, residents of the United Kingdom. Residents of the EEA, the United Kingdom and Switzerland are referred to here as “EEA Residents.”
From May 25, 2018, all processing of Personal Information of EEA Residents is performed by us in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679) of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons regarding the processing of Personal Information and on the free movement of such data (“GDPR”).
Although we are based and operated in the United States and do not provide our Services or Products to the EEA, we may obtain the Personal Information of EEA Residents. Under the GDPR, we are a processor or co-processor of the Personal Information of EEA Residents. Our purpose for collecting and processing Personal Information from or about EEA Residents is to authenticate contacts for our mailing list or provide marketing information about our Services. The legal basis for collecting Personal Information is to fulfill these purposes, including requests and contact from you. We also rely on you consent, including receiving communications regarding us and our Services or Products.
We will not share the Personal Information that we obtain about residents of the EEA with third parties except as described above regarding Personal Information.
Under the GDPR, EEA Residents may also have the right to: obtain confirmation that we hold Personal Information about the resident, request access to and receive information about the Personal Information we maintain about the resident, receive copies of the Personal Information we maintain about the resident, update and correct inaccuracies in Personal Information, object to the continued processing of Personal Information, and have the Personal Information blocked, anonymized or deleted, as appropriate. The right to access Personal Information may be limited in some circumstances by local law and by our legal obligations.
If you qualify, in order to exercise these rights, please contact us through one of the methods below:
Mailing Address:Liquid I.V.777 S. Aviation Boulevard, Suite 105El Segundo, CA 90245E-mail Address:info@liquid-iv.comTelephone Number:(855) 386-4021

Please understand, however, that we reserve the right to retain an archive of such Personal Information for a commercially reasonable time to ensure that its deletion does not affect the integrity of our data; and we further reserve the right to retain an anonymous version of such Information.
For information regarding opt-out rights to communications from us please see above section regarding “Notifications and Communications from Liquid I.V.” and “Opting Out of Communications.”
International Data Transfers
If you are resident outside the United States, including in the EEA, we transfer Personal Information provided by you for processing in the United States. Under the GDPR, we are considered a processor or co-processor of the Personal Information of EEA Residents and provide processing of data at the request of individuals who may be controllers or processors of such data. By providing Personal Information to us for the purpose of obtaining information about us and our Services or Products, you consent to the processing of such data in the United States. The transfer of Personal Information to the United States is necessary for the performance of a contract between you and us. Please note that you may always remove yourself from our mailing list by contacting us at info@liquid-iv.com.
Please note that the United States does not have data protection laws equivalent to those in the EEA and other jurisdictions.
Personal Information Retention
We retain the Personal Information we receive as described in this Privacy Policy for as long as you use our Services or as necessary to fulfill the purpose(s) for which it was collected, provide our Services or Products, resolve disputes, establish legal defenses, conduct audits, pursue legitimate business purposes, enforce our agreements, and comply with applicable laws and are ethical and legal obligations.
Security Policy
We limit access to the Personal Information we have you to those employees who have a legitimate business need to access such information. We take commercially reasonable steps to protect your Personal Information against unauthorized disclosure or loss. However, no data transmission over the Internet or any security measures can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
Therefore, while we strive to protect user information we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. You engage in such transmissions at your risk. If you believe your Personal Information is being improperly used by us or any third party, please immediately notify us via email at info@liquid-iv.com.
