To help protect your privacy and maintain security in exercising rights to know, correct and/or delete, we will take steps to verify your identity before granting you access to your personal information or complying with the requests to know, delete and/ or the correct.  

Our verification procedure may differ depending on whether you have an account with us or not and the request you are making.  The following generally describes the verification processes we use:

1. Password Protected Accounts.  If you have a password-protected account with us, we may use existing authentication practices to verify your identity but will require re-authentication before disclosing, correcting or deleting data.  If we suspect fraudulent or malicious activity relating to your account, we will require further verification (as described below) before complying with a request to know or delete.
2. Verification for Non-Accountholders.  If you do not have, or cannot access, a password-protected account with us, we will generally verify your identity as follows:

• For requests to know categories of personal information, we will verify your identity to a reasonable degree of certainty by matching at least two data points provided by you with reliable data points maintained by us.
• For requests to know specific pieces of personal information, we will verify your identity to a reasonably high degree of certainty by matching at least three data points provided by you with reliable data points maintained by us.  We will also require a declaration, signed under penalty of perjury, that the person requesting the information is the person whose information is the subject of the request or that person’s authorized representative.  We will maintain all signed declarations as part of our records.
• For requests to correct or delete personal information, we will verify your identity to a reasonable degree or a reasonably high degree of certainty depending on the sensitivity of the personal information and the risk of harm posed by unauthorized deletion.  We will act in good faith when determining the appropriate standard to apply.

If there is no reasonable method by which we can verify your identity, we will state so in response to a request to know or delete personal information, including an explanation of why we have no reasonable method to verify your identity.

If you use an authorized agent to submit a request to know, delete or correct, we may require the authorized agent to provide proof that you gave the agent signed permission to submit the request. We may also require you to do either of the following: (a) verify your own identity directly with us; or (b) directly confirm with us that you provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request.  This requirement does not apply if you have provided the authorized agent with power of attorney pursuant to Probate Code sections 4121 to 4130.

We will respond to requests to know, requests to delete and / or delete no later than 45 calendar days.  If we cannot verify your request within 45 days, we may deny your request.  If necessary, we may take up to an additional 45 days to respond to your request but in such an event will provide you a notice and an explanation of the reason that we will take more than 45 days to respond to your request.

Rights Regarding Sensitive Personal Information:  In connection with your Sensitive Personal Information, depending on the state of your residence you may also have the right that: (a) we not process that information without first presenting you with clear notice and an opportunity to opt out of the processing; or (b) we not process that information without obtaining your consent.  Assuming this right applies to you, you have the right to withdraw your previous consent and opt out of further processing of your Sensitive Personal Information. 

Furthermore, assuming you reside in a state that provides the following, if we have actual knowledge that you are 13 years of age and not older than 16 years of age, we will not without your consent process your Personal Information for the purposes of targeted advertising, profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal effects or effects of similar significance or selling your Personal Information.

You may submit a request by emailing your request to dataprivacy@crowley.com or contacting us by phone at (888) 912-4847.  When you make a request, to help protect your privacy and maintain security, we will take steps to verify your identity.  Our verification procedure may differ depending on whether you have an account with us or not and the request you are making.  The following generally describes the verification processes we use: 

1. Password Protected Accounts.  If you have a password-protected account with us, we may use existing authentication practices to verify your identity but will require re-authentication before disclosing, correcting or deleting data.  If we suspect fraudulent or malicious activity relating to your account, we will require further verification (as described below) before complying with a request to know or delete.
   1. Verification for Non-Accountholders.  If you do not have, or cannot access, a password-protected account with us, we will generally verify your identity to a reasonable degree of certainty by matching at two or three data points provided by you with reliable data points maintained by us. For valid requests to delete Personal Information, we will verify your identity to a reasonable degree or a reasonably high degree of certainty depending on the sensitivity of the Personal Information and the risk of harm posed by unauthorized deletion. We will act in good faith when determining the appropriate standard to apply.

We may also require a declaration, signed under penalty of perjury, that the person requesting the information is the person whose information is the subject of the request or that person’s authorized representative.  We will maintain all signed declarations as part of our records.

If there is no reasonable method by which we can verify your identity, we will state so in response, including an explanation of why we have no reasonable method to verify your identity.

If you use an authorized agent to submit a request to know, delete or correct, we may require the authorized agent to provide proof that you gave the agent signed permission to submit the request. We may also require you to do either of the following: (a) verify your own identity directly with us; or (b) directly confirm with us that you provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request. 

There may be situations where we cannot grant your request. For example, if you ask us to delete Personal Information that we are obligated to keep to comply with applicable law we may not be able to fulfill some or all of your request. We may also decline to grant your request where our use of your Personal Information serves a legitimate purpose such as for security purposes.  Your request may also be denied if it compromises the privacy of others, is overly repetitive or extremely burdensome to fulfill.  

Information requests under “Right of Access” and “Right to Data Portability” will be transmitted securely. If we cannot fulfill your request, we will notify you of that decision and the reasons why within 45 days. At that point if you believe our decision was in error, you may have the right to submit an appeal using the method(s) above.  If the result is the same, you can also seek assistance and/or redress from your state attorney general.

• Nevada Privacy Notice.

Nevada law provides that Nevada residents may opt-out of the “sale” of “covered information” to third parties, including but not limited to name, address, social security number, and online service activity.  Our uses of your personal information are not sales under Nevada law, so no opt-out right applies.
