If you place an order for Services, you may also be required to provide information or documents necessary for preparation or filing of forms or applications to be submitted to government agencies, and if you file an application, we may receive from the government a unique receipt number assigned to your application (“Application Information”). Depending on the Services that you are seeking, Application Information may include certain sensitive personal information, including (without limitation) information about your age, race, disability, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, and/or racial or ethnic origin; your social security, driver’s license, state identification card, or passport number; your immigration status; birth certificate information; employment status and information about your employer.

If you reside in the European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the UK (collectively the “EU”), and are subject to any one of (i) the General Data Protection Regulation, (ii) data protection laws implemented by member states of the EU in harmony with the General Data Protection Regulation, or (iii) the U.K. Data Protection Act of 2018, as amended and incorporated into U.K. law (collectively, the “GDPR”), you are a “Data Subject” and we are a “Data Controller” for any Personal Information that constitutes “Personal Information” under the GDPR that is processed under this Privacy Notice. If you are not a Data Subject, the provisions in this section (and in Section 5) do not apply to you.

We may transfer your Personal Information to a processor located outside of the EU to assist us in providing our Services in accordance with applicable laws.

5.2. Individual Rights

However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of storage is 100% secure.

More simply

The security of your Personal Information is very important to us, and we have taken numerous deliberate steps to safeguard your Personal Information.

10. Disclosures Under State Privacy Laws


10.1 Categories of Personal Information

In addition to the rights described in this Privacy Notice, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), as well as privacy laws in Colorado (collectively, “State Privacy Laws”), provide consumers residing in that state certain additional rights with respect to their Personal Information. If you are a resident of one of the states named above, you may have additional rights with respect to your Personal Information. This section also applies to residents of the above states who are interacting with Boundless in a business or commercial capacity.

In the preceding twelve months, we have collected and used the following categories of Personal Information as described below:

10.2 Notice of Information Collected and/or Disclosed for “Sales” or “Sharing”

California law and other State Privacy Laws require that we notify you about Personal Information that we “sell” or “share.” Under the CCPA, “sale” means the disclosure of Personal Information to third parties in exchange for valuable consideration, while “sharing” means the disclosure of personal information to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising. For purposes of the CCPA, we do not knowingly sell or share Personal Information under the age of 16. In the twelve months preceding the date on which this Privacy Notice was last revised, we have “sold” or “shared” Personal Information for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes with the following third parties:

Category of Personal Information Examples Shared With (Service Provider, Government Entities, Business Partners, or Other)
A. Identifiers. A real name, alias, Internet Protocol address, email address, account name, or other similar identifiers. Service providers, advertising and marketing partners, and government entities.

The above Personal Information is used to display advertisements to you based on Personal Information obtained from your activities over time and across nonaffiliated websites or online applications.

You may submit your request to opt out of the sale of your Personal Information under the CCPA by contacting us at privacy@boundless.com.

10.3 Consumer Rights under State Privacy Laws

Subject to certain limitations, under State Privacy Laws, residents of the affected states have the right to (1) request to know more about the categories and specific pieces of Personal Information we collect, use, and disclose, (2) request deletion of your Personal Information, and/or (3) request correction of your Personal Information. You may make these requests by emailing privacy@boundless.com or submitting the webform at the following address: https://forms.gle/5YndafE7cgRtcFxW9. We will not discriminate against you if you exercise your rights under applicable State Privacy Laws.

Under the CCPA, consumers 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. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:

  • The categories of Personal Information we collected about you.
  • The categories of sources for the Personal Information we collected about you.
  • Our business or commercial purpose for collecting that Personal Information.
  • The categories of third parties with whom we share that Personal Information.
  • The specific pieces of Personal Information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).
  • If we sold or disclosed your Personal Information for a business purpose, two separate lists disclosing:
    • sales, identifying the categories of Personal Information that each category of recipient purchased; and
    • disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the Personal Information categories that each category of recipient obtained.

If we deny your request, you may appeal our decision by contacting us using the contact methods provided above. If you have concerns about the result of an appeal, you may contact the attorney general in the state where you reside.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request twice within a twelve-month period under the CCPA. The verifiable consumer request must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative of that person.
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

The rights above may be limited in some circumstances—for example, if fulfilling your request would reveal Personal Information about another person, where they would infringe the rights of a third party (including our rights) or if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law to keep or have compelling legitimate interests in maintaining.

10.4 Opt-Out Preference Signals

Some browsers allow you to enable privacy controls in the browser’s settings to automatically signal your opt-out preference to the websites you visit (e.g., Global Privacy Control). As of the date on which this Privacy Policy was last updated, however, there is no standardized DNT signal, and so no uniform technological standards for recognizing and implementing such signals. As such, our Services do not currently respond to browser DNT signals or similar signals. If you do not wish to be tracked, you may also be able to opt out by selecting certain options in the settings browser or device that you use to access the Services, or by using certain third-party applications and programs.

10.5 California Notice of Financial Incentive

The CCPA also requires that we notify you if we provide you a program, benefit, or other offering, related to the collection, deletion, or sale of Personal Information, which it defines as a “financial incentive.” Sometimes, consumers sign up or provide us with their Personal Information (such as their email address) to participate in promotions. As such, under the CCPA, our promotions may be considered financial incentives provided in exchange for the collection and retention of Personal Information.

We offer these promotions to enhance our relationship with you or so you can engage with us while receiving some of these benefits. There is no obligation to opt-in and consumers may opt-out at any time. The details of each program are contained in each such program offering.

The consumer data received in exchange for your participation is dependent on a number of factors, including, for example, whether and to what extent you take advantage of any offerings and whether and to what extent you opt out of any offerings but is roughly equivalent to the value of the product incentive or promotion offered.
