Please note that if exercising these rights limits our ability to process personal information (such as a deletion request), we may no longer be able to provide you with our products and Services or engage with you in the same manner. Additionally, Zinus has established processes (including reviewing business processes, systems and resources on a periodic basis) to ensure consumers who exercise any of the above rights under US state privacy laws are not discriminated against.

 

A.2 How to Exercise Your Consumer Rights

To exercise any of your right mentioned above, please submit a request by clicking the link “Do not Sell or Share My Personal Information” on Zinus website.

We will need to verify your identity before processing your request. 

In order to verify your identity, we will generally require sufficient information from you so that we can match it to the information we maintain about you in our systems. Sometimes we may need additional personal information from you to be able to identify you. We will notify you. 

We may decline a request where we cannot verify your identity or locate your information in our systems or as permitted by law. In this case, we may request that you provide additional information reasonably necessary to authenticate you and your request.

You may choose to designate an authorized agent to make a request under the CCPA or CPRA on your behalf. No information will be disclosed until the authorized agent’s authority has been reviewed and verified. Once an authorized agent has submitted a request, we may require additional information (i.e., written authorization from you) to confirm the authorized agent’s authority. 

If you are a third party (auditor, business associate, etc.), who was given access to the Zinus system, please submit your requests and/or questions through our online submission process.
