17.2 If we need to use your Personal Data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

20.6 Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights.

Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your consumer information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. You may make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability no more than twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must: (i) provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected consumer information or an authorized representative; and (ii) describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with consumer information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the consumer information relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use consumer information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
20.6.2 We endeavour to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt.

If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your consumer information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance. If your requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of their repetitive character, we may either charge a reasonable fee, taking into account the administrative costs of providing the information or communication or taking the action requested, or refuse to act on the request and notify you of the reason for refusing the request.

22.6 Onward Transfer: Before we disclose any of your transfer data to a third party we will require that such third party provide the same level of privacy protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles. AIfluence, Inc.’s accountability for transfer data that it receives under the Privacy Shield and transfers to a third party is outlined in the Privacy Shield Principles. In particular, AIfluence, Inc. remains liable under the Privacy Shield Principles if third-party agents that it retains to process transfer data on AIfluence, Inc.’s behalf process such transfer data in a manner inconsistent with the Privacy Shield Principles, unless AIfluence, Inc. can prove that it is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
22.7 Choice: If you no longer wish to have your transfer data disclosed to third parties, you may choose to “opt out” by notifying us. To do so, send an email to support@ai-fluence.com.

However, even after any “opt-out”, your transfer data may be used and disclosed to a third party upon a good faith belief that such disclosure is required in order to comply with an applicable statute, regulation, rule or law, a subpoena, a search warrant, a court or regulatory order, lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements, or other valid legal process. Without limitation of any other provision contained herein, following your “opt out”, your information that already has been gathered may continue to be used and to be disclosed to third parties, provided that such information will be anonymized in order to ensure that you cannot be identified anymore.
22.8 Data Integrity and Purpose Limitation: Except as may be authorized by you, we use your transfer data in a manner that is compatible with and relevant for the purpose for which it was collected. To the extent necessary for these purposes, we take reasonable steps to ensure that transfer data is accurate, complete, current, and reliable for its intended use.
