California Privacy Notice.

California consumers may have certain rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 ("CCPA"). The following California Privacy Notice describes how we collect, use, disclose, and otherwise process personal information of individual residents of the State of California, either online or offline, within the scope of CCPA.

The term "personal information" in this supplemental California Privacy Notice provision has the meaning ascribed to in CCPA, meaning 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. However, personal information does not include publicly available, de-identified, or aggregate consumer information (which are all defined in CCPA). Notably, the definition of "personal information" also does not apply to the collection of personal information from job applicants, employees – whether you are our employee or any employee of the entity arranging access to our Services for you, business owners, directors, officers, medical staff, or contractors.

We collect various categories of personal information in connection with our Services and for a variety of purposes, as set out above. We do not sell personal information. We will not sell personal information unless we provide proper notice to consumers and, in the event of personal information collected prior to that notice, we will obtain explicit consent for the sale of personal information relating to those individuals with whom we previously interacted.

As described herein, we share personal information with third parties for business purposes. We disclose your personal information to the following categories of third parties:

1. If you access a third-party application or content through our Services, your personal information may be shared with such third party to ensure your access to such third party application or content and subject to your agreement with such third party. We are not responsible for such third parties' handling of your personal information.

2. We rely on trusted third-party service providers that perform business or operational services for us or on our behalf, including website and server hosting, infrastructure development, IT services, email, marketing and other similar service. Such trusted third parties provide services to us subject to contractual terms restricting the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information.

3. We share your personal information with third parties with your consent or at your direction, including, for example, order fulfillment, payment processing, or delivery or shipping services.

4. We may share your personal information with third-party security providers to detect, prevent, or otherwise address actual or potential fraud, harassment, security or technical issues, violations of any law, rule, regulation or the policies of One Joule.

5. We may share your personal information with third party analytics providers to enhance and improve our Service and understand the frequency and demographics of our Services' usage.

6. We may disclose personal information as reasonably necessary to respond to law enforcement requests and as required by a law, court order, or regulations.

7. We may share your personal information with our partners to conduct joint marketing, educational, promotional and maintenance campaigns.

8. We may disclose personal information as reasonably necessary to evaluate, negotiate or conduct a sale or transfer transaction of some or all of One Joule's assets, in which personal information held by One Joule about consumers is among the assets transferred or is otherwise relevant to the evaluation, negotiation or conduct of the transaction.

If you are a resident of California and are not a job applicant, employee/contractor, or employee/contractor of another company interacting with us in your job role, you have the right to request what information we collect, use, and disclose. You also have the right to request that we delete your information. To exercise your right, please submit a request by emailing to legal@1-joule.com with the subject line "California Rights Request". We will not discriminate against you because you have exercised any of your privacy rights under the CCPA.

We will need to verify your identity before processing your request, which may require us to request additional personal information from you or require you to log into your account. In certain circumstances, we may decline a request to exercise the rights described above, of which we will notify you, particularly where we are unable to verify your identity. We will only use personal information provided in connection with a Consumer Rights Request to review and comply with the request.

We will update this California Privacy Notice from time to time. When we make changes to this California Privacy Notice, we will change the "Last Updated" date at the beginning of this Privacy Policy. All changes shall be effective from the date of publication unless otherwise provided in the notification.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy.

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time and will provide you with notice either by email or posting a banner on our Website if we believe such change materially affects your privacy rights. By continuing to use the Services after those changes become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised Privacy Policy.
