Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights
You have the right to request that Rush disclose its collection and use of your Personal Information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights), we will disclose to you:

The categories of Personal Information we may collect about you

Correction Request Rights
You have a right to correct any inaccurate personal information that Rush may store about you.

Deletion Request Rights
You have the right to request that Rush delete any of your Personal Information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights), we will delete and direct our service providers to delete your Personal Information from our records, unless an exception applies.

In accordance with the CCPA, we may deny your deletion request under certain circumstances, and will inform you of the basis for the denial, which may include, but is not limited to, retaining the information as necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

Complete the transaction for which we collected the Personal Information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you;
Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities;
Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us;
Comply with a legal obligation;
Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it; or
We could not verify your identity or we have determined that you are not entitled to exercise the right you are attempting to exercise because you are not a “consumer” as that term is defined under the CCPA.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, Correction and Deletion Rights
To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:

Calling us at 855-787-4223
Emailing us at CCPA@RushEnterprises.com

Only you, or an Authorized Agent as defined below may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Information.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative.
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 Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you.

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us.

We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

Response Timing and Format
We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

We will deliver our written response by the method used to make the request.

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.

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.

Personal Information Sales and Sharing Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights
If you are 16 years of age or older, you have the right to direct us to not sell or share your Personal Information at any time (the "right to opt-out"). We do not sell or share the Personal Information of Consumers we actually know are less than 16 years of age.

To exercise the right to opt out, you (or your Authorized Agent) may submit a request to us by visiting the following Internet Web page link:

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

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. Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve (12) months before asking you to reauthorize Personal Information sales or sharing. However, you may change your mind and opt back in to Personal Information sales and sharing at any time by sending an email to CCPA@RushEnterprises.com, including the Subject Line “Opt In to Sale and Sharing of Personal Information.” In the body of the email, please state that you authorize Rush to sell or share your personal information to third parties. Rush will then send an email asking you to confirm that you have opted in to the sale or sharing of your personal information to third parties.

Sensitive Information
Under the CCPA, you have the right to limit the use and disclosure of your sensitive personal information for the purpose of inferring characteristics about you. Under California law, “sensitive personal information” includes, but is not limited to, your precise geolocation data, ethnicity, or social security, government-issued identification, bank account, or credit card number.

We may use and share certain categories of your sensitive information, such as geolocation data collected on our website, to infer characteristics about you. To direct us to stop the use and disclosure of your sensitive personal information, you (or your authorized representative) may submit a request to us by visiting the following Internet Web page link:

Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information

V. Non-Discrimination

We may offer you different price, rate, level, or quality of goods or services in connection with our volume discount pricing program and/or other promotional programs offered to certain Rush customers, which does not constitute discrimination under CCPA.

VI. Other California Privacy Rights

California's "Shine the Light" law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our website that are California residents to request certain information, once a year, regarding our disclosure of Personal Information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to CCPA@RushEnterprises.com. Please include “Shine the Light Request” in the subject line.

VII. Authorized Agents

A consumer may designate an authorized agent to make a request under the CCPA on the consumer’s behalf. If a consumer wishes to authorize another person to act as an authorized agent on the consumer’s behalf, the consumer must provide the authorized agent permission to do so.

To help prevent fraudulent requests, we reserve the right to deny a request from an agent that does not submit proof that he or she has been authorized by the consumer to act on the consumer’s behalf. As proof that the agent has been duly authorized by the consumer to submit a CPRA request, the agent will be required to upload either (1) power of attorney signed by consumer, or (2) other signed permission from the consumer. Pursuant to California Probate Code Sections 4300 to 4310, if an agent provides power of attorney signed by the consumer (“principal”) that purports to give the agent authorization to submit the request on the principal’s behalf, we may require that the agent provide information reasonably necessary or appropriate to identify the agent and principal and to facilitate the request. This includes, but is not limited to, identification of the agent and principal and the current and permanent residence addresses of the principal. If the agent provides some other signed permission from the consumer, we may require that the consumer (1) verify their identity directly with us and (2) confirm that he or she provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request.

VIII. Changes to Our CCPA Privacy Notice

Rush reserves the right to amend this privacy notice at our discretion and at any time. When we make changes to this privacy notice, we will post the updated notice on the Website and update the notice's Effective Date above.
