Notice to California Residents

This California Privacy Notice is updated and effective as of June 29, 2023.

This California Privacy Notice supplements the information contained in the Privacy Policy of BBQGuys and applies only to California residents regarding their Personal Information, as required by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA), the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CPRA), and any implementing regulations adopted thereunder. Any terms (including defined capitalized terms) used in this California Privacy Notice have the same meanings given in the CCPA, CPRA, and the associated regulations, unless otherwise defined.

Your Rights and Choices

California Consumers have the right to request: (1) that we disclose to you what Personal Information we collect, use, disclose, share and sell, including the right to request that we provide to you the categories and specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you (“Right to Know”); (2) that we delete the Personal Information we collect about you, (“Right to Delete”); (3) that we correct inaccurate Personal Information we hold about you (“Right to Correct”), (4) to opt-out from the sharing of your Personal Information and Sensitive Personal Information to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising (i.e., targeted advertising) (“Right to Opt-Out of Sharing”), (5) to opt-out from the sale of their Personal Information and Sensitive Personal Information (“Right to Opt-Out of Sale”), and (6) that we limit the use or disclosure of your Sensitive Personal Information to purposes set forth in the statute, including that use which is necessary and anticipated to perform the services or provide the goods reasonably expected by an average consumer who requests those goods or services (“Right to Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information”), all subject to the meanings and exceptions set forth in the CCPA and CPRA. More information on each of these rights is below.

In your request, you must provide enough information to allow us to verify that you are the person about whom we collected personal information, or their authorized representative. You must also describe your request with enough detail so that we can understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

Verifying Your Requests

We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity based upon the information you provide and the type of request you are making.

When you exercise your Right to Know, Right to Delete, and/or Right to Correct, we may ask that you provide us with information, beyond your full name and email address in order to verify your identity and fulfill your request. If we are unable to verify that the individual submitting the request is the same individual about whom we have collected information (or someone authorized by that individual to act on their behalf), we will not be able to process the request. Pursuant to the CPRA, we will not require you to verify your identity, beyond asking for the information necessary to complete your request, when you exercise your Right to Opt-Out of Sharing, Right to Opt-Out of Sale, or Right to Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information.

Authorized Agents

If you are an authorized representative submitting a request on a California Consumer’s behalf, please submit the applicable request pursuant to these instructions. We require proof that you are authorized to submit the request. Please provide proof in the form of a written permission signed by the individual who is the subject of the request authorizing you to make the request on their behalf. The written permission must state your full legal name, the full legal name of the individual who is the subject of the request and needs to be clear about the permission granted. Alternatively, you may submit a copy of a power of attorney under Probate Code sections 4000-4465. Please also indicate the nature of your request. The consumer’s identity may need to be independently verified in order for us to be able to fulfill your request. We may also ask the consumer to directly confirm with us that they provided you permission to submit a request. Please keep in mind that if we do not receive adequate proof that you are authorized to act on the consumer’s behalf, we may deny the request.

Right to Know

California Consumers have the right to know what information we have collected about you (the categories and the specific pieces of information).

If you are a California Consumer and would like to exercise your Right to Know, please submit your request online, by phone by calling us at 1-877-743-2269, or by emailing us at privacy@bbqguys.com.

In order to have us provide specific pieces of information, we may require a signed declaration under penalty of perjury that you are the consumer whose Personal Information is the subject of the request.

Right to Delete

California Consumers have the right to request that we delete any of the personal information we have collected from you. If you are a California Consumer and would like to exercise your Right to Delete, please submit your request online, by phone by calling us at 1-877-743-2269, or by emailing us at privacy@bbqguys.com.

Please note that as part of the verification process, once you submit a request to delete, we may follow up and require you to confirm that you want your information deleted.

Right to Correct Inaccurate Information

California Consumers have the right to request that we correct inaccurate information we hold about you. If you are a California Consumer and would like to exercise your Right to Correct, please submit your request online, by phone by calling us at 1-877-743-2269, or by emailing us at privacy@bbqguys.com.

Right to Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information

Under the CPRA Regulations, a business must only provide the Right to Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information when such information is collected or processed for the purpose of inferring characteristics about a consumer, or its use does not fall within the list of exceptions outlined in CPRA § 1798.121. BBQGuys’ use and disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information is not for such purposes and/or falls within this list of exceptions and we, therefore, do not offer such opt-out right at this time.

Do Not Sell or Share

Right to Opt-Out of Sale of Personal Information or Sharing for Cross-Context Behavioral Advertising

California Consumers have the right to opt-out of the sale of your Personal Information or Sensitive Personal Information. California Consumers also have the right to opt-out of the sharing of your Personal Information or Sensitive Personal Information to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising (i.e., targeted advertising), whether or not for monetary or other valuable consideration. If you are a California Consumer and would like exercise your Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing, please submit your request online, or call us at 1-877-743-2269. Please note, submitting your request by phone or web form will only opt you out of offline sale and sharing practices.

BBQGuys engages in online advertising practices (and certain analytics or similar activities), which may be considered a sale or share for cross-context behavioral advertising as defined in the CCPA and CPRA. To disable online sharing through cookies set by 3rd parties that may be considered sales or sharing under the CCPA and CPRA, use our tool by clicking “Manage My Cookies” in the footer of the website.

In addition, the Digital Advertising Alliance also offers tools for California consumers to send requests under the CCPA and CPRA to opt out of the sale of personal information by some or all of the participating companies. For more information, visit https://www.privacyrights.info/.

Data Retention

We will retain all categories of personal information described in this California Privacy Notice for as long as you use our Services, until you request its deletion, or as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to provide our Services, resolve disputes, establish legal defenses, conduct audits, pursue legitimate business purposes, enforce our agreements, prevent fraud, and comply with applicable laws.

Users Younger Than 18

BBQGuys does not knowingly collect or sell Personal Information of users younger than 18 years of age.

Right to Non-Discrimination for the Exercise of a Consumer’s Privacy Rights

California consumers have the right to not receive discriminatory treatment for exercising CCPA and CPRA rights. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA and CPRA rights.

Notice of Financial Incentive

Under California regulation, certain aspects of our loyalty and similar programs (Rewards Program, Pro Program), which provide benefits to consumers, may be considered a financial incentive program. We collect personal information from you in connection with our loyalty program, e.g., contact information (name, email address), commercial information (like purchase history and wishlists), and business information (business type, company name) for a number of reasons, including to administer the program, verify your identity, contact you with regard to your account (if any), to provide the benefits to you, to better serve you, for security and legal purposes, and to fulfill your requests associated with the program.

To opt into our loyalty or similar programs, as set forth herein you will need to provide certain information, register for an account and agree to the applicable program terms, or otherwise follow the instructions associated with the loyalty or other similar programs. Participation in our loyalty or other similar programs is voluntary and you can withdraw at any time. To withdraw from the loyalty or other programs, please email customerservice@bbqguys.com.

To the extent that we provide programs that may be considered a financial incentive because the program is directly or reasonably related to the collection, deletion or retention of consumer personal information, the value is reasonably related to the overall value we receive from the personal information participants provide specific to the program minus the costs and expenses we incur in providing the program.

Other California Privacy Rights

California’s Shine the Light law (Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as S.B. 27) allows California residents to request from companies conducting business in California certain information relating to third parties to which the company has disclosed certain categories of personal information during the preceding year for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Alternatively, the law provides that a company may comply, as BBQGuys does, by disclosing in its privacy policy that it provides consumers choice (opt in or opt out) regarding sharing personal information with third parties for those third parties’ direct marking purposes, and information on how to exercise that choice. As stated in the Privacy Policy, BBQGuys provides you choice prior to sharing your personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. If you do not opt-in or if you opt-out at the time we offer that choice, we do not share your information with that identified third party for its direct marketing purposes.

If you are a California resident and you have questions about our practices with respect to sharing information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes and your ability to exercise choice, please write to us at BBQGuys, Attn: Legal Department, 8151 Airline Hwy, Baton Rouge, LA 70815. You must put the statement Your California Privacy Rights in your writing if you choose to write to us at the designated mailing address. You must include your name, street address, city, state, and zip code. We are not responsible for notices that are not labeled or sent properly, or do not have complete information.
