campaigns from time to time that do not rely on your personal information.
6. Your rights
This section describes your rights and explains how to exercise those rights.
You may have rights under local data protection laws in relation to your personal
information. For example, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) provides
consumers (California residents) with specific rights regarding their personal
information. As a part of our commitment to our users, we are extending the following
rights, including certain CCPA rights, as described below, to all of our users.
These rights are not absolute and are subject to certain exceptions. For instance, we
cannot disclose or permit access to specific pieces of personal information if the
disclosure or access would present a certain level of risk to the security of the personal
information, your account with us or the security of the business’s systems of networks.
6.1 Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights
You have the right to request that Gevonomie disclose certain information to you about
our collection and usage of your personal information over the last 12 months. You can
receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you by logging into your
account settings on https://www.gevonomie.online and requesting such information.
Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access
and Deletion Rights below), we will disclose to you:
The categories of personal information we collected about you.
The sources for the personal information we collected about you.
Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal
information.
The categories of third parties with whom we share the personal information.
The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a data
portability request).
If we sold or disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, identifying
the personal information categories that each category recipient received.
6.2 Deletion Request Rights
You have the right to request that we delete personal information that we have
collected from you, subject to certain exceptions. You can request to delete your
personal information by logging into your account settings on https://www.gevonomie.online
and submitting a delete request.
Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access
and Deletion Rights below), we will delete your personal information from our records.
Under certain circumstances, as allowed by law, we may delay or deny your request.
Gevonomie reserves the right to retain portions of your personal information for a
limited time, as permitted by law. For example, for Trust and Safety purposes or to
respond to a law enforcement request.
6.3 Exercising Access and Deletion Rights
In addition to the methods described above for exercising your delete and access rights,
you may also submit a verifiable consumer request to us by sending an email inquiry to
info@gevonomie.nu.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we
cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal
information relates to you. We reserve the right to verify your identity in connection
with any requests regarding personal information to help ensure that we provide the
information we maintain to the individual to whom it pertains, and allow only that
individual or their authorized representatives to exercise rights with respect to that
information.
Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with
us. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account
sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with
that specific account.
We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to
verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request. If you designate an
authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, you may have to submit information
confirming such designation.
For instructions on exercising sale opt-out rights, see Personal Information Sales Optout Rights below.
6.4 Response Timing and Format
We endeavor to respond promptly to verifiable consumer requests, and in any case no
longer than forty-five (45) days from the date of such request. If we require more time,
we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.
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, if applicable, any
reasons we are not able to comply with all or any portion of such request. For personal
information access requests, we endeavor to provide the information in a portable
format that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from
one entity to another entity without hindrance, specifically in “.csv” files.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request
unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the
request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you
with a cost estimate before completing your request.
6.5 Right to request correction
You have the right to request the correction of any of the personal information we have
about you, although we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to
us. In order to request the correction of your personal information, please email
info@gevonomie.nu.
6.6 Personal Information Sales Opt-Out Rights
The CCPA defines the terms “sale” much more broadly than the common interpretation
of the term. For example, sharing user IP addresses with advertising platforms in order
to show relevant advertising, is now considered a “sale” under CCPA. As part of our
commitment to our users, we are extending the CCPA’s Do Not Sell My Personal
Information rights to all of our users.
In order to exercise your right to opt out of the “sale” of your personal information as
defined by the CCPA, please click the Do Not Sell My Personal information link or email
info@gevonomie.nu.
You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your opt-out rights. We will
only use personal information provided in an opt-out request to review and comply
with the request.
7. How long do we store your data?
We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the
purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal,
accounting, or reporting requirements. Please note that we often need to retain certain
data for recordkeeping purposes and/or to complete any transactions that you began
prior to requesting a change or deletion.
8. Technical and organisational measures and processing security
We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect
personal information against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss,
alteration, access, disclosure or use. For example, all information you provide to us is
stored on our secure servers behind firewalls.
The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where you have a
password to access to certain parts of our Services, you are responsible for keeping this
password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.
Please note, despite the measures we have implemented to protect your data, the
transfer of data through the Internet or other open networks is never completely secure
and there is a risk that your personal information may be accessed by unauthorised third
parties.
9. Links to third-party websites
Our Platform may contain links to third party websites or apps. If you click on one of
these links, please note that each one will have its own privacy policy. We do not
control these websites/apps and are not responsible for those policies. When you leave
our Platform, we encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.
10. User-Submitted content
Some features of the Services allow you to post content on our Platform or social media
pages, such as photos. We do not have control over how other users who have access
to the Platform will use any content you post publicly or send to them privately. We
urge you to exercise discretion when sharing personal information with other users.
We may also use any ad you post on Gevonomie, including the uploaded photo or
image of the product as well as other data (including user name and location)
associated with the ad, for our own advertising purposes, including social media,
Facebook ads, newsletters and ads for any media.
To help protect your privacy, we allow only limited access to other users’ contact
information as necessary to fulfil your transactions and collect payments. However,
when users are involved in a transaction, they may have access to each other’s name,
user ID, email address, and other contact information.
11. State Privacy Rights

Shine the Light Law: California law permits residents of California to request notice of
how their information is shared with third parties for direct marketing purposes or to
opt out of such sharing. If you are a California resident and would like a copy of this

NOTE: Any content contained in a chat message between users is stored as a chat
message and not in your user profile or as a separate category of data. This may include
certain categories of information listed above as “Not Collected.” For example, if you
chat with another user about your age or education history, we do not store this data
separately or use it for any purpose. We do not mine user chat messages for information
and we do not share the content of our chat messages with any third parties and we do
not use it for any purpose other than facilitating a chat service between users. Therefore
we have listed certain categories of data as Not Collected since they are not
intentionally collected by us or used for a business purpose.
11.2 Disclosure of personal information for a business purpose
In the preceding twelve (12) months, Gevonomie has disclosed the following categories
of personal information for a business purpose:
Identifiers reasonably capable of being associated with a person or household (such
as name, online identifier, email address)
Personal Information categories listed in California Customer records statute

Analytics Providers (for obtaining analytics about the activity on our Platform)
11.3 Sales of personal information
We respect your privacy and have never sold our users’ personal information as most
people understand that term. Recent laws, such as the CCPA, provide California state
residents various rights over their personal information and define terms like “sale” much
more broadly than the common interpretation of the term. For example, sharing user IP
addresses with advertising platforms in order to show relevant advertising, is now
considered a “sale” under CCPA.
In the preceding twelve (12) months, as defined by the CCPA, Gevonomie has “sold” (as
defined in the CCPA) the following categories of personal information for a business
purpose:
Identifiers reasonably capable of being associated with a person or household (such
as online identifier, email address)
Commercial Information, including products or services purchased obtained or
considered, or purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies
Internet or network activity and usage information
Geolocation Data
Inferences about preferences, characteristics, trends, predispositions
As defined by the CCPA, we “sell” your personal information to the following categories
of third parties:
Advertisers (for the purposes of showing you advertisements on Gevonomie); and
Analytics Providers (for the purposes of obtaining analytics about the activity on our
Platform).
11.4. CA Rights
Under the CCPA, California residents have consumer rights including the right to access
specific information and data portability; the right to request deletion of personal
information; and the right to opt out of the “sale” of personal information (collectively
“Rights”). We are extending these Rights to all of our users in the United States and they
are described above in more detail in Section 6. In sum, the Rights and the methods for
submitting requests are as follows:
Consumer Right Methods for Submitting Requests
Right of access to specific information and data portability rights
User Settings at www.gevonomie.nu
info@gevonomie.nu
Right to request deletion of personal information
User Settings at www.gevonomie.nu
info@gevonomie.nu
Right to opt out of a “sale” of personal information, as “sale” is defined under the
CCPA
“Do Not Sell My Personal Information”
info@gevonomoe.nu
California residents also have a right not to be discriminated against for the exercise of
their Rights.
NEVADA
Nevada law permits residents of Nevada to opt-out of data sales by web operators. A
“sale” under Nevada law means the exchange of personal identifiable information for
monetary consideration to a person for that person to license or sell that personal
identifiable information to additional persons. Gevonomie does not sell your personal
information under Nevada law. However, Gevonomie is offering all of its users the right
to opt out of the sale of personal information under the CCPA, which we believe
contains a broader definition of “sale.” If you are a Nevada resident and would like to
opt-out of a “sale” of your personal information in accordance with the CCPA please
submit the request for the same.

features of those areas without registering.
