business purpose:
Category A: Identifiers

In the preceding twelve (12) months, CareMarket has not disclosed personal information for a commercial purpose.
However, for California residents, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) defines "selling" personal
information to include providing it to a third party in exchange for money or valuable services. We may in the
future disclose data in any of the categories above to certain third parties for commercial purposes, in our
products and services or in exchange for valuable services, such as advertising or social media engagement
services, which may constitute a "sale" under the CCPA." Pursuant to our Privacy Notice, we share your information

Third Parties in Merger/Acquisition: Third parties in connection with a merger, sale, or

Third Parties with Consent: Other third parties for whom we have obtained your permission to
disclose your Personal Information
For avoidance of doubt, we do not sell health information subject to HIPAA without your express authorization. If
you give us such an authorization, you may revoke it in writing at any time. Your revocation will not affect any
use or disclosure permitted by your authorization while it was in effect.
Your Rights and Choices
The CCPA provides California residents with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section
describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.
"VERIFIABLE CONSUMER REQUEST"
To exercise your rights to access or delete your personal information under the CCPA, you must submit a
"verifiable consumer request." Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you
authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You
may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.
A 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
If we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request, we will not be able to fulfill your request.
The information provided for verification will only be used for that purpose.
AUTHORIZING AN AGENT
To authorize an agent to make a request to know, delete or opt-out request on your behalf, please send a written
authorization signed by you and the authorized agent to us via the contact information below.
PROCESSING FEES
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive,
repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. 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 OPT-OUT AND OPT-IN RIGHTS
In some circumstances, you may opt out of the sale of your Personal Information. If you are 16 years of age or
older, you have the right to direct us to not sell your personal information at any time (the "right to opt-out").
We do not sell the personal information of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years of age, unless we
receive affirmative authorization (the "right to opt-in") from either the consumer who is between 13 and 16 years
of age, or the parent or guardian of a consumer less than 13 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to personal
information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time. We may ask for information from you to verify your
identity and help ensure your request does not infringe upon the rights of others, for example, an individual who
has not opted out but has a similar name as you.
To exercise the right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) may submit a request by following the
instruction under contact information below.
Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve (12) months before asking you to reauthorize the
sale of your personal information. However, you may change your mind and opt back in to personal information sales
at any time by visiting our Application and sending us a message.
We will only use personal information provided in an opt-out request to review and comply with the request.
Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we
will not:
Deny you goods or services.
Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other
benefits, or imposing penalties.
Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality
of goods or services.
We may offer you certain financial incentives such as discounted prices, rates, or quality levels. Any permitted
financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your personal information's value and contain written terms
that describe the program's material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior
opt in consent, which you may revoke at any time.
"Shine the Light"
California's "Shine the Light" law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our Application that are
California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third
parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send us an electronic message through
our website or write us at our address listed below.
Changes to Our CA Privacy Notice
We reserve 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.
Your continued use of our Application following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such
changes.
