- the categories of personal information we have collected about you
- the categories of sources from which the personal information is collected
- the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing with third parties for cross context behavioral advertising (e.g., targeted advertising)
- the categories of third parties to whom we disclose personal information
- the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you
You can do this through a verified consumer request. That process is described below in the section, "How to Exercise Your Rights."
Your Right to Request Correction of Inaccurate Personal Information
Certain states provide you the right to request correction of inaccurate personal information maintained by us. We may request documentation from you to determine the accuracy of the information. If you provide us documentation either upon our request or through your own initiative, that documentation will only be used for the purpose of correcting your personal information and complying with our recordkeeping requirements.
As an alternative to correction, we may delete the inaccurate information if it does not negatively impact you or if you consent to this deletion. We reserve the right to deny this request if allowed under applicable law, or if we determine that the contested information is more likely than not accurate, based on the totality of circumstances. You can submit a correction request through a verified consumer request. That process is described below in the section, " How to Exercise Your Rights."
Your Right to Request Deletion of Your Personal Information
Certain states provide the right to request that we delete any of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions. You can do this through a verified consumer request. That process is described below in the section, "How to Exercise Your Rights."
There may be scenarios where we deny your deletion request. If that occurs, we will provide you with an explanation as to why we could not delete all or some of your personal information.
How to Exercise Your Rights
You may exercise your rights, as applicable, by submitting a verified consumer request to know information (and to receive your personal information in a portable format), to correct information, or for deletion.
The response to a request to know will provide the personal information we have collected and maintained about you, in a portable format, unless an exception under applicable state law applies. Please note that, depending on the applicable state law, we may not be required to provide personal information to you if you make multiple requests in a certain time period. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
You place a request by emailing us at gdpr@donttellcomedy.com, or mailing us your request at the address below. If you email or mail us your request, we ask that you provide the same information requested on the webform in order for us to authenticate your request. Your request either through the webform, or via email or mail will be verified using information you provide as described on the webform.
If you submit a request that is not through one of the above designated methods or is deficient in some manner unrelated to verification, we will provide you with information on how to submit the request or remedy any deficiencies with your request.
Once we receive your verifiable consumer request, we will confirm receipt of the request within 10 business days, or as allowed under applicable law, describing our verification process. We will respond to your request within 45 calendar days, or as allowed under applicable law, if we are able to verify your identity. Requests for deletion will require a separate confirmation that you want your information deleted.
Requests to Know or Delete for Child Under the Age of 13: We do not knowingly collect information of minors under the age of 13.
Using an Authorized Agent to Submit a Request
California: Only you, or a natural person or a business entity registered with the Secretary of State to conduct business in California that you have authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information, to opt-out of sale or sharing, or to limit the use or disclosure of your sensitive personal information. If you use an authorized agent, you may provide a power of attorney executed pursuant to California Probate Code sections 4000 to 4465. If a power of attorney that meets those provisions is not submitted, you will be required to provide the authorized agent signed permission to submit a request, verify your identity directly by submitting a verified consumer request according to the procedures in the section "How to Exercise Your Rights," and directly confirm with us that you provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request. To submit authorized agent documentation, contact us at info@donttellcomedy.com.
Other States: If you use an authorized agent, you may provide a power of attorney executed pursuant to applicable state law. If a power of attorney is not submitted, you may be required to provide commercially reasonable identification of your identity and evidence of your authorized agent’s authority to act on your behalf. For example, you may need to provide the authorized agent signed permission to submit a request, verify your identity directly by submitting a verified consumer request according to the procedures in the section "How to Exercise Your Rights," and directly confirm with us that you provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request, by contacting us at info@donttellcomedy.com.
Opt-Out Preference Signals/Universal Opt-Out Mechanism
Our use of tracking technologies may be considered a sale or share for targeted advertising under applicable state law. You can opt-out of being tracked by these third parties by clicking the "Do Not Sell of Share My Personal Info" link at the bottom of our website and selecting your preferences, or by broadcasting an Opt-Out Preference Signal/Universal Opt-Out Mechanism, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC) (on the browsers and/or browser extensions that support such a signal). Your request to opt-out of sale/sharing will be linked to your browser identifier only and not linked to any account information because the connection between your browser and the account is not known to us. Because the signal is browser-specific, you will need to broadcast subsequent signals if you are accessing our website through different online devices (e.g., computers, smartphones, tablets).
Notice of Financial Incentive/Loyalty Program
From time to time, we may offer coupons, discounts, free merchandise, or other benefits in exchange for your providing us with personal information to receive marketing SMS messages and similar communications. These coupons, discounts, free merchandise, or other benefits may be considered to be “financial incentives” under applicable law. To opt-in and/or receive these financial incentives, you will be asked to provide personal information (such as a phone number or email address) through an online form or similar means. Please note that we may provide additional terms that apply to a particular financial incentive. If applicable, those terms will be presented to you at sign up.
When you choose to opt-in to a financial incentive, we use the information you provide to send you marketing texts, emails, special offers, and other advertising, and the information may be shared with our email providers and advertising partners.
You may opt-out of a financial incentive program the following ways:
- To opt out of email marketing, use the “unsubscribe” link in the emails we send.
- To opt out of SMS marketing, respond “STOP” or “unsubscribe” to the SMS messages we send.
- To opt out of the loyalty program, send an email to info@donttellcomedy.com explaining that you would like to leave the loyalty program.
It is not our business practice to assign a specific monetary value to personal information. The precise value each participant receives from the financial incentive program can vary greatly by individual and depends on several factors, including, for example, the location and time of the show, the number of tickets purchased, the rewards redeemed, and whether someone is a regular or occasional customer. To the extent that we calculate a value for personal information collected through financial incentive programs, we do so in good faith based on the expenses related to the collection and retention of personal information as part of the program. We estimate in good faith that the value of personal information we receive through the program is reasonably related to, and generally less than, the value that the program provides to participants.
Your Right to Non-Discrimination for the Exercise of a Privacy Right
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your state privacy rights. However, we may still offer you certain financial incentives permitted under applicable state law, such as discounts, rewards, premium features, loyalty accounts, or club card programs that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels.
Supplemental U.S. State Privacy Rights
In addition to the privacy rights listed above, certain states provide supplemental privacy rights to residents of those states.
Right to Opt-Out of Certain Profiling
You have the right to opt-out of our use of profiling when used to make decisions that produce a legal or similarly significant effect concerning you or your interactions with us. Currently, we do not engage in such profiling.
Right to Appeal
You have the right to appeal our refusal to take action on, or respond to, a verified consumer request. Upon receipt of our denial or refusal to take action on, or to respond to, a verified consumer request, a consumer has 90 days to submit a request to appeal our decision by mail. We will timely inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response. We will also include a written explanation of the reasons for our decision.
Changes to Our Privacy Notice
We reserve the right to amend this privacy notice at our discretion and at any time. When we make changes to this privacy notice, we will post the updated notice on the Website and update the notice's effective date. Your continued use of our Website following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes.
