To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to AARDVARK by either:

• Calling us at 1-800-997-3773 
• Emailing our Privacy Officer at privacy@aardvarktactical.com 

​

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.

​

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period.

​

The verifiable consumer request must:  

• Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify 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. 

AARDVARK cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.  Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us.  We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.  

Response Timing and Format 

AARDVARK will strive to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt.  If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.  We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.  Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt.  The response we provide will also explain the response we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. 

​

AARDVARK does 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 explain how we determined that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request. 

​

NON-DISCRIMINATION 

AARDVARK 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.
  
  

CHANGES TO OUR PRIVACY POLICY 

We reserve the right to amend this CCPA policy or our Privacy Policy at our discretion and at any time.  When we make changes to either of these policies, we will make notice of this by the revision date of the policy on our Website(s).

This PRIVACY NOTICE FOR RESIDENTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (EU) supplements the information contained in PROJECT7’s Privacy Policy and only applies solely to visitors, users, and others who reside in any one of the EU States (“consumers” and “you”). We adopt this policy to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).  This policy will explain how PROJECT7 uses the personal data we collect from you when you use our website and explain how to exercise your rights.

PROJECT7 Armor, a brand of AARDVARK, hereinafter referred to as AARDVARK,  located at 1935 Puddingstone Drive, La Verne, CA 91750, is responsible for processing your personal data.

The data we collect may therefore include your strictly personal data, insofar as it allows you to be identified as a particular person. 

KEY PRINCIPLES OF THE GDPR  

Lawfulness, fairness, and transparency: Personal data shall be processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to individuals.

• Accuracy: Personal data shall be accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; every reasonable step must be taken to ensure that personal data that are inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, are erased or rectified without delay. 
• Storage Limitation: Personal data shall be kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed; personal data may be stored for longer periods insofar as the personal data will be processed solely for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes subject to implementation of the appropriate technical and organizational measures required by the GDPR in order to safeguard the rights and freedoms of individuals. 
• Integrity and Confidentiality: Personal data shall be processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organizational measures.
