Any campaigns that require collection of personally identifiable information conforms to the following privacy policies:
Digital Advertisements
Sensis partners with advertising partners (e.g., Google, Facebook) to deliver ads. These ads are optimized throughout the campaign by tracking user click-throughs and ultimate conversion (acquisition of lead) using tracking pixels. The landing pages also capture user behavior using Google Analytics. This data is stored on the ad network infrastructure, not by Sensis.
All these tracking mechanisms are anonymous and do not capture any personally identifiable information.
Direct Mail
When Sensis partners with vendors to deliver direct mail. Sensis provides targeting parameters (e.g., 5-mile radius from station-list). The actual names and addresses are never received, nor stored by Sensis.
Landing Pages
Our campaigns sometimes require capturing of personally identifiable information via website forms. These forms are secured and the data we collect is encrypted on secure servers that are protected with private keys.
Web Development
Sensis will use Secure Socket Layer over HTTP, which authenticates server authenticity and encrypts data during transition. Additionally, any system files (O/S, user files and database) will be stored on an encrypted file system. Should an image of the storage device, or the physical storage device itself become compromised, no one other than the original system admin will be able to retrieve content. As a last layer of protection against staff exposure to sensitive information (e.g., personally identifiable information, passwords), Sensis will use column level encryption to conceal sensitive data from engineers. When looking at the database, those records will look like strings of random text, not the actual value that is being stored.

Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights
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. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:
Deletion Request Rights
You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights
To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by email at info@sensisagency.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:
We 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
We endeavor 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. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to the registered email associated with the account. If you do not have an account with us, 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 reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.
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.
Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:
