      • Right to Non-Discrimination. You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of the privacy rights described above.

      How to submit a request. If you are a California resident and wish to exercise these rights, please refer to the information under Section 4.

      Any request you submit to us is subject to an identification and residency verification process (“Verifiable Consumer Request”) as permitted by the CCPA. We will not fulfill your request unless you have provided sufficient information that enables us to reasonably verify that you are the consumer about whom we collected the personal information on. If you are an account holder with us, we will ask you to verify your identity by providing: (i) your billing zip code; (ii) your last transaction amount; or (iii) your loyalty number . If we suspect fraudulent or malicious activity on the password-protected account, we will not comply with the request to know or the request to delete personal information until further verification procedures have been satisfied. These rights are also subject to various exclusions and exceptions under applicable laws.

      If we are unable to verify your identity to a degree of certainty as required by the CCPA through any reasonable method, we will state that we are unable to verify in a written response to you along with a reason as to why there is no reasonable method by which we can verify your identity. We will evaluate our methods for verifying the identity of all consumers who request to know or delete personal information on a yearly basis.

      Authorized Agents. As a California resident, you may designate an authorized agent to act on your behalf to make a request under the CCPA, such as requesting disclosure of any personal information we have sold or collected; or requesting deletion of such personal information. If you should use an authorized agent to exercise your various rights under the CCPA, we may require that you provide your authorized agent with written permission to exercise your various rights and to verify your own identity with us. If your authorized agent does not submit proof that they have been authorized by you to submit verified requests for disclosure and deletion, we reserve the right to deny such a request that we have received and will explain to your authorized agent why we have denied such request. The authorized agent may submit a request to exercise these rights by emailing the letter of authorization or power of attorney to [email protected].

      If all the consumers of a household jointly request access to specific pieces of information for the consumers of the household or deletion of the household’s personal information, we will comply with the request if we can verify the identity of all members of the household pursuant to our procedures for identity verification mentioned above.

      We will respond to your request within forty-five (45) days after receipt of a Verifiable Consumer Request for a period covering twelve (12) months and for no more than twice in a twelve-month period. We reserve the right to extend the response time by an additional forty-five (45) days when reasonably necessary and provided consumer notification of the extension is made within the first forty-five (45) days.

    6. Direct marketing by third parties.

      California residents have certain rights with respect to our sharing of their personal information with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes. California residents have the right to request information regarding such practices under California’s “Shine the Light” Law, please contact us using the information in the Contact Us section. You must include your full name, email address and postal address in your email or mail request so that we can verify your California residence and respond. “Personal information” under this California law means any information that identified, described, or was able to be associated with an individual at the time of disclosure.

    7. Notice of the Right to Opt-Out

      We “sell”/”share” personal information, as those terms are defined under California law, to the extent we disclose personal information to third parties for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising, as defined under California law. We may also "sell”/”share” personal information, including your first and last name, email address, mailing address, phone number, date of birth, and geolocation, with third parties, such as our licensees, distributors, partners and others with whom we have marketing or other relationships, for the third parties' direct marketing purposes.

      To opt out of our “sale”/”sharing” of personal information, please email us at [email protected].

    8. Notice of Financial Incentives

      We may offer discounts on Products and Services when you participate in or engage with the following programs and promotions:

      • GUESS List Rewards Program. Our GUESS List Rewards Program allows you to accumulate points in order to receive discounts and other offers, including through use of the GUESS 81 app. In order to register, you will be asked to provide your first and last name, email address, month and day of birth (optional), and gender (optional).
