We may collect this personal information even if you are not logged in. We collect some personal information automatically using cookies or other tracking technologies as described below in Section 7. The personal information automatically collected may be collected by or on behalf of third parties who provide us inferences or aggregate reporting based on analysis of such personal information.
Employee Data: Please see Appendix B.
We may collect personal information about you from a number of sources in addition to those means of collection indicated above including offline or through sources unrelated to your receipt of our websites or apps.

We may merge or co-mingle that personal information with the personal information we maintain about you and other data collected on or through our website.
We collect your personal information for the following reasons:
We will only use your personal information for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably determine we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. For example, we consider de-identification, aggregation, and other forms of anonymization of personal information to be compatible with the purposes listed above and in your interest, because the anonymization of such information reduces the likelihood of improper disclosure of that information.
If you wish to receive an explanation as to how the processing for a particular purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us via the information specified in the Contact section below.
PLEASE NOTE THAT WE MAY PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITHOUT YOUR KNOWLEDGE OR CONSENT, IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ABOVE RULES, WHERE THIS IS REQUIRED OR PERMITTED BY LAW.

Related Organizations. We may share some or all of your personal information with parent and subsidiary companies and companies under shared corporate control for the purposes described in Section 4 above.
Service Providers. We may from time to time use business partners, suppliers, and sub-contractors ("Service Providers") to assist us with the provision of services to you (for example, without limitation, website hosting, app design, maintenance services, database management, web analytics, app analytics, billing, payment processing, fraud protection, credit risk reduction, marketing, or improvement of services). These Service Providers have access to your personal information only to perform the respective tasks assigned to them on our behalf, and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
Compliance with Laws. We cooperate with government and law enforcement officials and private parties to enforce and comply with the law. We may disclose your personal information to government or law enforcement officials or private parties in response to lawful requests when we believe disclosure or sharing is necessary to comply with any legal obligation, enforce or apply our terms and conditions, respond to claims and legal process, protect our services, members, dealers, our rights and/or the safety of the public or any person, or prevent or stop any illegal, unethical or legally actionable activity (including for the purposes of fraud protection).

We may share or transfer some or all of your personal information in connection with or during negotiation of any merger, financing, acquisition or dissolution transaction, or proceeding involving sale, transfer, divestiture, termination or transfer of all or part of one or more license or other agreement(s) regarding the RVCA brand, disclosure or another transaction under which a third party assumes control of all or a portion of our business or assets. In the event of any of the foregoing or in any insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership, personal information may be transferred as a business asset. If another company or individual acquires our business, or assets, that company or individual will possess the personal information collected by us and will assume the rights and obligations regarding your personal information as described in this Policy.
Other Legitimate Business Purposes. We may also disclose your personal information when it may be necessary for other legitimate purposes as reasonably determined by us, in which case we will notify you of such use via telephone, email, and/or a prominent notice on our website.
The tracking technologies we utilize include the following:
Cookies. We may use different types of cookies when providing different types of web-related services. If you do not know what cookies are, or how to control or delete them, then we recommend you visit www.aboutcookies.org for detailed guidance. Cookies allow us to identify and authenticate visitors, track aggregate behavior, and enable important service features. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. Session ID cookies are used to maintain your browser state as you browse through services, and they expire when you close your browser. A persistent Cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period, and we use that to identify you should you return to services and want to find information you had previously entered or accessed.
We also contract with analytics services, third-party affiliate services, and third-party advertising companies to collect similar information. These cookies allow the ad servers to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement and compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks third-party vendors to work on our behalf to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements or send direct mail or catalogs that they believe will be of most interest to you. Our vendors may then connect the information that they collect from our website using cookies to other sources of information, which may include your name and mailing address, for the purpose of sending you direct mail promotions.
You may disable cookies through your web browser. For information about opting out of these collection services, please see the section titled Your Choices below.
Web Beacons/Tags. We automatically collect aggregate anonymous information through files embedded in our services and emails known as "web beacons." We may deliver a web beacon to you through our services from an advertising network with which we have contracted. Web beacons allow third parties to provide anonymized and aggregated auditing, research, and reporting for us. Web beacons also allow us to send email messages in a format users can read, and they tell us whether emails have been opened to ensure that we are sending only messages that are of interest to our users. We may use this information to reduce or eliminate messages sent to users. We do not tie the information gathered by web beacons to personal information.
Flash LSOs. When we post videos, third parties may use local shared objects, known as "Flash cookies," to store your preferences for volume control or to personalize certain video features. Flash cookies are different from browser cookies because of the amount and type of data and how the data is stored. The cookie management tools provided by many popular browsers will not remove Flash cookies. To learn how to manage Flash cookie privacy and storage settings, click here:

Analytics. We may use analytics tools or similar tools provided by third parties to help analyze how you and other users utilize our services. Analytics tools use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect information such as how often users visit services, what pages they visit, and what other websites they used prior to visiting our services. We use the information we get from analytics tools only to improve services. Analytics tools collect the IP address or other unique identifier assigned to you on the date you visited services. We do not combine the information generated through the use of analytics tools with your other personal information. Analytics tools provided by third parties plant a persistent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit our website, and the treatment of that information is governed by the third party's terms of use and/or privacy policy.

Behavioral Advertising. Our services may use behavioral advertising. This means that a third party may use technology (e.g., a cookie) to collect information about your use of our websites so that they can provide advertising about products and services tailored to your interests.

Analytics. Many analytics providers allow end-users to opt out of the retention of their information, including our third-party analytics providers. Please note that typically, unless you create an account with the analytics provider, your choice to opt out applies only to the device from which you make the request, because the providers use cookies on that device to recognize your choice. If you get a new device, install a new web browser, update your browser, or otherwise erase/alter your browser cookie files you may clear the opt-out cookie.

Your personal information may be processed in the country in which it was collected and in other countries, including the United States, where laws regarding personal information may be less stringent than the laws in your country. Therefore, in some circumstances, you might be left without a legal remedy in the event of a privacy breach or other use that is prohibited in your country. By submitting your personal information, you agree to this transfer, storage and/or processing, including all associated risks.

No fee usually required. You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee or decline to comply with your request if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive.
What we may need from you. When exercising your rights or otherwise assisting you, we may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity. This is a security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. We make efforts to protect your personal information from improper or unauthorized loss, misuse, access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. If you have questions about the security of your personal information, contact us at the email or regular mail address specified in the Contact section below.
We will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

Your California Privacy Rights
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 and certain other privacy and data protection laws, as applicable, you have the right to request that we disclose what personal information we collect, use, disclose, and sell. More specifically, you have rights to the following without charge:
Disclosure of Personal Information We Collect About You
You have the right to know the categories of personal information we have collected about you, the categories of sources from which we collect personal information, our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling personal information, the categories of third parties with whom we share personal information, if any, and the specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you.
We will not retain any personal information about you that was collected for a single one-time transaction if, in the ordinary course of business, that information about you is not retained; not re-identify or otherwise link any data that, in the ordinary course of business, is not maintained in a manner that would be considered personal information; and reserve our right not to provide personal information to you more than twice in a 12-month period.
Disclosure of Personal Information Sold or Used for a Business Purpose
You have the right to know if we sell or disclose your personal information to third parties for business purposes, along with the right to know the categories of personal information about you that we sold, the categories of third parties to whom we sold the personal information, the categories of personal information that we disclosed about you for a business purpose, and the categories of third parties to whom we disclosed personal information.
Under the definition of "sale" provided by California law, we sell personal information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could be reasonably linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household to third parties. We do not sell your name or contact information to third parties for money. Rather, our use of industry standard analytics and advertising services constitutes "sale" under the CCPA. We have attempted to limit such transfers of personal information to the extent our analytics and advertising providers have made that option available.
Deletion of Personal Information
Subject to the exceptions set out below, and upon your submission of a verifiable request, you have the right to deletion of your personal information from our records, and to have us direct our service providers delete your personal information from their records.
We are not required to, and reserve our right not to, delete your personal information it if is necessary to complete the transaction for which the personal information was collected, provide a good or service requested by you, or reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform a contract between you and us; detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity; or prosecute those responsible for that activity; debug to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality; exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise his or her right of free speech, or exercise another right provided for by law; comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act; engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when our deletion of the information is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of such research, provided we have obtained your informed consent; enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with your expectations based on the your relationship with us; comply with an existing legal obligation; and otherwise use your personal information, internally, in a lawful manner that is compatible with the context in which you provided the information.
Freedom from Discrimination
You have the right to not be discriminated against by us because you exercised any of your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act. This means we cannot on the basis of the exercise of your rights thereunder, among other things, deny goods or services to you, charge different prices or rates for goods or services, including through the use of discounts or other benefits or imposing penalties; provide a different level or quality of goods or services to you; or suggest that you will receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
Your Right to Opt-Out of the Sale of Personal Information
As noted above, under the definition of "sale" provided by California law, we sell personal information through our use of industry standard analytics and advertising services. We do not sell your name or contact information to third parties for money. We have attempted to limit such transfers of personal information to the extent our analytics and advertising providers have made that option available.
You have the right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information. If you exercise your right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information, we will refrain from selling your personal information, unless you subsequently provide express authorization for the sale of your personal information.
To opt-out of the sale of your personal information, visit our homepage and click on the Do Not Sell My Personal Information link, or click here.
How to Exercise Your Rights
Unless otherwise specified, to exercise any of your rights described in this Appendix A, please complete a data subject request form available here; call us toll-free at +1 (855) 330-0188 or submit your request to us at one of the following addresses: customerservice@ecom.rvca.com dor RVCA, Attn: Privacy Officer, 1740 Monrovia Avenue, Costa Mesa, CA 92627.
In order to verify your request, you will need to provide us with enough information to identify you (e.g., your full name, address, and customer or matter reference number), proof of your identity and address (e.g., a copy of your driving license or passport and a recent utility or credit card bill), and a description of what right you wish to exercise along with any information to which your requests relates.
You may also designate an authorized agent to make a request under the California Consumer Privacy Act on your behalf. In order to fulfill your request to know or delete submitted by an authorized agent, you must provide the authorized agent written permission to do so, and we may require you verify your own identity with us directly.
User-enabled privacy controls, such as a browser plugin or privacy setting or other mechanism, that communicate or signal your choice to opt-out of the sale of personal information are considered a request directly from you, not through an authorized agent.
We reserve our right not to make a data access or portability disclosure if we cannot verify that the person making the request is the person about whom we collected information or someone authorized to act on such person's behalf. You may only make a data access or data portability request twice within a 12-month period. Any personal information we collect from you to verify your identity in connection with your request will be used solely for the purposes of verification.
Children's Personal Information
Under the definition of "sale" provided by California law, we do not sell the personal information of minors under 16 years of age without affirmative authorization. For minors who wish to opt-in to the “sale” of their personal information as described above, we have established the following processes:
Minors between 13 and 16 years of age:
In the case of consumers between 13 and 16 years of age, we require the consumer to affirmatively authorize the sale of the consumer’s personal information. In order to opt-in minors in this age range, we require the minor consumer indicate their intent to opt-in by affirming they are over 13 years old, and confirm their intent to opt-in by accepting tracking cookies. If the consumer does not accept, no third party tracking cookies or pixels will load.
Minors under 13 years of age:
In the case of consumers who are less than 13 years of age, we will not knowingly "sell" the consumer’s personal information. In order to to prevent this, we ask for the age of visitors to our website and will not load third party tracking cookies or pixels for consumers in this age range.
If you are a parent or guardian seeking to opt-out on behalf of their child who has made an account with us, provide us the information associated with the minor child’s account. We will prevent the sale of this data by deleting the account. In order to prevent the future collection of information from your child, please opt-out from each of your child’s devices. You may submit data subject request to delete the account here and opt-out the child’s devices by clicking here.
