California Privacy Notice (CCPA)

Introduction and Scope

Fundselviro provides this notice to California residents under the California Consumer Privacy Act / California Privacy Rights Act ("CCPA/CPRA"). It describes how we collect, use, and disclose personal information about California consumers and what rights you have with respect to that information. This notice supplements — and should be read together with — our general Privacy Policy.

Categories of Personal Information Collected

Over the preceding twelve (12) months Fundselviro has collected the categories of personal information described below. "Identifiers" — your IP address, browser fingerprint, and any email address you submit. "Customer records" — any name, email, or message you provide through forms. "Commercial information" — your newsletter subscription state. "Internet activity" — the pages you read and the referrer that brought you here. "Geolocation" — coarse city- or country-level derived from IP. "Inferences" — aggregated audience-segment estimates derived from reading behavior.

Sources of Personal Information

Sources of the personal information we hold about California consumers include: you, directly (when you subscribe, contact us, or submit a tip); your browser and device (request headers, IP address, cookie identifiers); and our limited list of operational service providers (hosting, CDN, email delivery, analytics). Fundselviro does not purchase personal information from data brokers or rent contact lists.

Business and Commercial Purposes

The personal information described in this notice is used by Fundselviro to operate, secure, and improve the service; to provide the editorial newsletter to subscribers; to answer messages submitted via our forms; to detect and prevent abuse; to produce aggregate audience reports; and to satisfy our legal obligations. We do not use personal information for any purpose materially different from those for which it was originally collected without notifying you.

Disclosure to Service Providers and Third Parties

Categories of third parties to which Fundselviro discloses personal information (always under a service-provider or processor agreement) are: hosting, edge/CDN security, email service providers, web-analytics providers, and advertising networks. Each is contractually limited to the specific business purposes for which the information is disclosed and is prohibited from retaining, using, or disclosing the information beyond those purposes.

Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell or share personal information in the manner described by the CCPA — that is, we do not exchange personal information for monetary or other valuable consideration with third parties, and we do not disclose personal information to third parties for the purpose of cross-context behavioral advertising. This has been true for the entire preceding twelve-month period and remains our standing policy.

Sensitive Personal Information

Under the CCPA, certain categories of personal information are designated as "sensitive" — including precise geolocation, government IDs, financial account numbers, racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, and similar attributes. Fundselviro does not knowingly collect or process such categories for inferring characteristics about California consumers. Any voluntary submission of sensitive information through our forms is used solely for the workflow you initiated.

Your California Privacy Rights

California consumers have, under the CCPA, the following rights with respect to personal information held by Fundselviro: a right to know (categories collected, sources, purposes, categories of recipients); a right to access specific pieces; a right to correction; a right to deletion; a right to opt out of sale and sharing; a right to limit the use of sensitive personal information; and a right not to be retaliated against for exercising any of these rights.

How to Exercise Your Rights

Requests to exercise CCPA rights should be sent to Fundselviro via the Contact form or the email address listed on the Contact page. Because we hold only a limited amount of personal information about each consumer, verification is usually straightforward (we typically confirm access to a registered email). We aim to acknowledge requests within ten days and to substantively respond within the 45-day statutory deadline; a single 45-day extension is available when reasonably necessary and we will tell you if we need to use it.

California consumers may use an authorized agent to exercise their CCPA rights. To process a request submitted by an agent, Fundselviro requires the agent to provide signed written permission from the consumer or a power of attorney, plus reasonable verification of the consumer's identity. We may also contact the consumer to confirm that they have indeed authorized the agent to make the request.

Consumers Under 16 Years of Age

We do not knowingly collect, sell, or share personal information about California consumers under 16 years of age. Our service is directed to adults. Should we ever change this practice (which we do not anticipate), we would do so only with the express opt-in consent required by the CCPA for consumers aged 13 to 15, or with parental opt-in consent for children under 13. Parents who suspect their child's data has been submitted can contact us for prompt deletion.

Right to Non-Discrimination

Fundselviro will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. We will not deny you our service, charge you a different price, provide a different level or quality of service, or retaliate against you in any other way because you submitted a request under the CCPA. Because the service is free and the same for all visitors, there is no financial incentive or differential pricing structure for you to opt into or out of.

Retention of Personal Information

Fundselviro follows a proportional retention policy. Newsletter records remain only while the subscription is active, with a minimal suppression entry kept post-unsubscribe to prevent accidental re-add. Contact-form records are retained for up to 24 months for follow-up and recordkeeping. Server logs are kept no longer than 90 days. Any aggregated analytics dataset that contains no identifiers is retained for long-term editorial planning.
