Notice for Californian residents.

This section applies to our processing of Personal Information as a business under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended.

For information that KOR collects subject to the CCPA, this Policy describes the categories of Personal Information that we may have collected or disclosed for business purposes in the past 12 months, the sources of the Personal Information and the business or commercial purposes for which we use or disclose this information (see section: “Collection and use of your Personal Information and purposes”), and the categories of third parties to whom we disclose the information for business purposes (see section “Personal Information sharing”).

In addition to the above sections, KOR may collect information in the category Characteristics of protected classifications under California or federal law such as race, ancestry, national origin, religion, age, mental and physical disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, or military status.

You have the right to access Personal Information, the right to correct inaccurate Personal Information, and delete Personal Information.

The CCPA also gives Californian residents the right to opt-out of having their Personal Information sold or shared (for business purposes as defined by the CCPA), and to limit use and disclosure of sensitive personal information as understood under the CPPA (for example, your social security number, your precise geolocation data) for limited purposes such as providing you with the services you requested.

We DO NOT sell your personal information for payment or for any other compensation nor do we share your Personal Information for business purposes as defined by the CCPA. Neither do we do so for personal data of minors under 16 years of age.

KOR is only processing any sensitive information subject to CCPA for the permitted purposes under the CCPA for which you do not have a right to limit.

You have a right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for any exercise of your privacy rights.

If you wish to submit a CCPA request, you may initiate your request through our contact information below. You should generally expect to receive a response within 45 days of the date we receive your request. However, in some instances, we may require an additional 45 days to process your request in which case we will notify you and explain why the extension is necessary. We will need to verify your identity before we can process your request. Through the request process, we will make you aware of any information that you will need to provide to us to process your request.

SECTION 3 – DISCLOSURE

We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.

SECTION 4

Payment:
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Authorize.net stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.

All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.

PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

SECTION 5 – THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.
For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.
