We take your privacy very seriously and we want you to know how we’re using your personal information and how you’re also able to access and update it, when necessary. When we materially edit our Privacy Policy, we will inform you of any changes via email. You should also revisit our Web Site from time to time to view our most current Privacy Policy then in effect.

However, you may not be able to use portions of the Web Site which require you to provide personal information, such as the checkout page.

Your California Rights
[Updated July 1, 2020]
As a California resident you may be entitled to additional rights with respect to your personal information that Hello Bello collects and stores about you.
Under the CCPA you have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months (Right to Know). Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you, if applicable:
If we disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, we will also disclose:
Right to Deletion
As a California resident you have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions (Right to Delete). Once we received and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.
We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:
Access and Data Portability Rights
As a California resident you may also have the right to access your personal information for purposes of correcting, modifying or replacing your existing personal data that we have on file (Right to Access). If appropriate you may also have the right to data portability and if requested we may provide your data in the form of a [zip file/ftp/other encrypted file] for your use and portability of your data (Right to Data Portability).
Notice of Right to Opt Out
You have the Right to Opt Out if we are “selling” or “sharing” your information, as those terms are defined by California law. We “sell”/”share” personal information, but only in the context of sharing certain personal information collected via Cookies with third party advertising platforms to facilitate targeted digital advertising. You may opt out of our use of Cookies for those purposes through our website’s cookie banner. You may also call us or send an email to enforce your rights to Opt Out of our use of Cookies.
Exercising Your California CCPA Rights
In order to enforce any of the foregoing Right to Know, Right to Delete, Right to Access, Right to Opt Out or Right to Data Portability you may contact us by sending an email to:
“Your California Privacy Rights” to the email address: [email protected]
or you may send a letter by US Mail to:
Hello Bello, Inc.
Attn: Legal
2101 Texas Central Pkwy
Waco, TX 76712
Email: [email protected]
Only you may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Right to Know, Delete, Access or Data Portability set forth above. In order to verify your request we will need you to provide at a minimum:
-Your full name
-Street Address, City, State and Zip Code
-Email Address
This information will allow us to verify your identity by confirming that you are the person about whom we collected personal information and describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. We will not share the information you submit with anyone and we will not use it for any other purpose other than verifying your identity.
Once we have verified your identity we will keep a record of the request only for purposes of complying with our obligations under the CCPA and for no other purpose.
We will not be able to respond to your request if we are unable to locate your personal information on our systems due to typos, misinformation or if we are unable to verify your identity. If you are requesting sensitive personal information such as credit card information, financial data or other such information then we may require additional procedures to verify your identity by means of a sworn declaration or other confirming method in our discretion as required under the CCPA.
We will generally confirm receipt of a verifiable consumer request within 10 business days and provide information about how we will process the request. Generally, we will respond to your request, free of charge, within 45 days of its receipt. However, if we require additional time to evaluate and fulfill your request, we will inform you of the reason and extension period (up to 90 days); in writing, within the initial 45-day period.
If a disclosure of your personal information is provided, it will only cover a period of 12 months preceding the date we receive your verifiable consumer request. For requests related to your Right to Data Portability we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information without hindrance, specifically by electronic mail communication. If applicable, the response we provide to you will explain the reasons we cannot fulfill your request.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is unfounded, excessive, or repetitive. If we determine that your request warrants a reasonable fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request. We are not required to provide personal information to a consumer more than twice in a 12-month period.
Authorized Agents:
If you are an Authorized Agent as defined in the CCPA we may require you to submit a declaration that you are an Authorized Agent that represents a particular California resident prior to responding to your requests. We may also request that you submit a declaration from the represented California resident designating you as an Authorized Agent to make requests on there behalf.
Non-Discrimination:
We will not discriminate against you because you exercise your rights. For example, Hello Bello will not deny you goods or services or deny or limit your access to the website.
CALIFORNIA SHINE THE LIGHT:
If you are a California resident and have an established business relationship with us, you can request a notice disclosing the categories of personal information we have shared with third parties, for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes, during the preceding calendar year.
