4. How Long We Keep Your Information

CXI will retain your personal information for as long as is necessary to complete the purposes for which it was collected, or as may be required by law. California law requires us to provide information regarding the criteria we use to determine the length of time for which we retain personal information. 

We utilize the following criteria to determine the length of time for which we retain information:

• The business purposes for which the information is used, and the length of time for which the information is required to achieve those purposes;
• Whether we are required to retain the information type in order to comply with legal obligations or contractual commitments, to defend against potential legal claims, or as otherwise necessary to investigate theft or other activities potentially in violation of CXI’s policies and procedures applicable to you or against the law, to ensure a secure online environment, or to protect health and safety;
• The privacy impact of ongoing retention on the consumer; and 
• The manner in which information is maintained and flows through our systems, and how best to manage the lifecycle of information in light of the volume and complexity of the systems in our infrastructure. 

Individual pieces of personal information may exist in different systems that are used for different business or legal purposes. A different maximum retention period may apply to each use case of the information. Certain individual pieces of information may also be stored in combination with other individual pieces of information, and the maximum retention period may be determined by the purpose for which that information set is used. For more information on how we apply retention criteria, please see Special Information for California Residents. 

5. How We Secure Information

CXI takes a variety of measures, including administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, to protect your information from loss, theft, and misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. For example, we take steps to limit access to information to those CXI employees, agents, and contractors who have legitimate business reason to access such information. We also use measures like encryption and hashing to help protect information when in transmission. Nevertheless, the internet is not a 100% secure environment, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of the transmission or storage of your information.

7. Special Information For California Residents

If you are a California resident, you have the right under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA") to receive notice of the categories of personal information we collect, the purposes for which those categories of personal information will be used, how we share the personal information, and how we determine the length of time for which the personal information is maintained. You are also entitled to receive notice regarding your rights under the CCPA. 

How to read the below charts:

• The categories we use to describe the information are those listed in the CCPA. Certain personal information may fall into multiple categories. Some of the categories include very different types of information. As a result, how we use and how long we keep the information within each category will vary. The examples of personal information listed below are illustrative and do not represent a complete description of the information we process.
• The chart also lists the categories of third parties to whom we "sell" or "share" personal information. Under the CCPA, a business “sells” personal information when it discloses it to a company for monetary or other benefit.
• We are required to list service providers to whom we disclose information to conduct activities on our behalf. These service providers are restricted from using personal information from any purpose that is not related to our engagement.
• If a category of personal information is not listed, we do not collect it. 

Collection, Use, and Sharing - Business Contacts

We collect personal information subject to the CCPA when we interact with an employee, representative, or agent of a business customer, vendor, or other business entity located in California. This disclosure covers the information that may be collected about you and not about the business on whose behalf you interact with us. 

Collection, Use, and Sharing - Individual Consumers  

Most of the information we collect about you is financial information or information collected in the context of our relationship as your money transmitter and is covered by the GLBA. However, in certain circumstances, we may collect information that is outside the context of our financial relationship. This information includes:

Collection, Use, and Sharing - Job Applicants  

We collect personal information subject to the CCPA when an individual residing in California applies for employment with CXI. This personal information includes:

Rights 

As a California resident, you have the right to request access to personal information collected about you and information regarding the source of that personal information, the purposes for which we collect it, and the third parties and service providers with whom we share it. You also have the right to request we correct inaccurate information, and to request in certain circumstances that we delete personal information that we have collected directly from you. You have the right to be free from discrimination based on your exercise of your CCPA rights. 

You may submit a request to exercise your rights to access, correct, delete or limit the use of your personal information through one of two means:

• submitting a Contact Us form by selecting "Privacy" for the "Reason for contacting us",
• calling 1-888-998-3948.

We may have a reason under the law why we do not have to comply with your request, or why we may comply with it in a more limited way than you anticipated. If we do, we will explain that to you in our response. Upon submission of your request, we will contact you (via the email address provided in your request) with instructions on how to verify the request, after which we will check our records for matching information, and aim to complete requests as soon as reasonably practicable and consistent with any applicable laws. You may authorize another individual or a business registered with the California Secretary of State, called an authorized agent, to make requests on your behalf through these means.  

You may opt out of the sale of sharing of personal information to third parties by visiting Your Privacy Choices page. The CCPA also grants you the right to request that we limit use of sensitive personal information to certain purposes allowed by law. However, we do not use sensitive personal information in any way for which you would be afforded this right. 

8. Special Information For Individuals in the EU/UK

CXI is an organization established in the United States. For individuals located outside of the United States, your personal information will likely be transferred, stored, and processed in the United States or other countries outside of where you live. Data privacy laws vary from country to country and may not be equivalent to, or as protective as, the laws in your home country. We take steps to ensure reasonable safeguards are in place to ensure an appropriate level of protection of your information and  rely on various legal mechanisms to transfer your personal information outside of your location (if applicable).
