5. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS

Under certain international and U.S. state privacy laws, you may be entitled to various privacy rights. Although they may not all apply to us, Trio values your privacy, and we therefore afford privacy rights to all individuals regardless of their residency. The chart below explains these rights, although some exceptions may apply:

Sensitive Data. We will process sensitive data (as the term or its equivalent is defined by applicable privacy laws) in accordance with any applicable privacy laws. In some instances, that means we will not collect sensitive data without first obtaining your consent or providing you with the right to opt out.

Exercising Your Rights. To exercise your rights, to know/access, correction, deletion, restrict, or portability, as applicable, please email us at info@thinktrio.com or at 1.855.873.8746.

Verification. To ensure the protection of your personal information, we may need to verify that the individual submitting a request is the consumer to whom the request relates prior to processing the request, or an authorized agent. To verify a consumer’s identity, we may request up to three pieces of personal information about you to compare against our records when you make a request.

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. However, we may require that you access a previously existing account where necessary to submit the request.

We will only use personal information provided in your request to verify your identity and will delete any information you provide after processing the request. We reserve the right to take additional steps as necessary to verify the identity of consumers where we have reason to believe a request is fraudulent.

You may choose a person or business that you authorize to act on your behalf to submit your requests (“Authorized Agent”). If you choose to use an Authorized Agent, we require that you provide the Authorized Agent with written permission to allow them to submit your request and that you verify your identity directly with us. Failure to do so may result in us denying your request.
