Payment Information.

We may collect your payment information when you purchase gift cards through Dyme Rewards or purchase travel such as hotel bookings, car rentals or activities or other products or services from Dyme. We may save your payment information to your Dyme account in order to allow you to check out easier. In those cases, you will be asked to input a payment option (i.e., a debit or credit card), as well as information needed to complete those purchases (such as your billing address). In those instances, your payment information is securely stored with our payment processor, Stripe or payment processors used by our third party partners such as Runa (for gift cards) and Xeni (for travel).

The information enables us to improve our products and gives us insights about pricing, and availability of retail items. We may also use this information to understand your shopping history, merchant and shopping preferences to provide you with a more tailored, relevant experience or show sponsored product offers that may interest you when you use the Services.

When we determine, at our sole discretion, that the maintenance of your personal information is no longer necessary for the provision of the Services, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security measures and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.

You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

If you become aware of any data we may have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at privacy@dyme.earth.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section below.

California Consumer Protection Act (“CCPA”) Privacy Notice

The California Code of Regulations defines a “resident” as:

(1) every individual who is in the State of California for other than a temporary or transitory purpose and

(2) every individual who is domiciled in the State of California who is outside the State of California for a temporary or transitory purpose

All other individuals are defined as “non-residents.”

If this definition of “resident” applies to you, we must adhere to certain rights and obligations regarding your personal information.

What categories of “personal information,” as defined by the CCPA, do we collect?

The CCPA broadly defines “Personal Information” as any information that directly or indirectly identifies, describes, relates to, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or can reasonably link a particular consumer or household.

Over the past twelve (12) months, our direct and indirect collection of Personal Information has fallen into the following categories, although we may not gather, use, or share every specific piece of Personal Information from every consumer:

Identifiers: Name, alias, postal address, unique personal identifier, online identifier, Internet Protocol (IP) address, email address, account name, or other similar identifiers;

Customer Account Records: Name, signature, address, telephone number, bank account number, credit or debit card number, other financial information;

Commercial Information: Records of personal property, products or services purchased, obtained, transacted, or considered, or other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies;

Customer Contact Information: Records of chats conversations, call logs, request queries, and email communications;

Internet and Network Activity Information: Browsing history, search history, cookies, and information regarding a consumer’s interaction with an Internet website, application, or advertisement;

Geolocation and Household data; and

Referral Information

We may also collect other personal information outside of these categories instances where you interact with us in person, online, or by phone or mail in the context of (a) receiving help through our customer support channels (b) participation in customer surveys or contests; and (c) facilitation in the delivery of our Services and to respond to your inquiries.

Will your information be shared with anyone else

We may disclose your personal information with our service providers pursuant to a written contract between us and each service provider. Each service provider is a for-profit entity that processes the information on our behalf.

We may use your personal information for our own business purposes, such as for undertaking internal research for technological development and demonstration. This is not considered to be “selling” your personal information.

Dyme has not disclosed or sold any personal information to third parties for a business or commercial purpose in the preceding twelve (12) months. In the future, Dyme will not sell personal information belonging to website visitors, users, and other consumers.

Deletion of data requests

You can ask for the deletion of your personal information. If you ask us to delete your personal information, we will respect your request and delete your personal information, subject to certain exceptions provided by law, such as (but not limited to) the exercise by another consumer of his or her right to free speech, our compliance requirements resulting from a legal obligation, or any processing that may be required to protect against illegal activities.

Right to be informed — Request to know

Depending on the circumstances, you have a right to know: (a) whether we collect and use your personal information; (b) the categories of personal information that we collect; (c) the purposes for which the collected personal information is used; whether we sell your personal information to third parties; (d) the categories of personal information that we sold or disclosed for a business purpose; (e) the categories of third parties to whom the personal information was sold or disclosed for a business purpose; and (f) the business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling personal information.

In accordance with applicable law, we are not obligated to provide or delete consumer information that is de-identified in response to a consumer request or to re- identify individual data to verify a consumer request.

Right to Non-Discrimination for the Exercise of a Consumer’s Privacy Rights: We will not discriminate against you if you exercise your privacy rights.

Verification process: Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are the same person about whom we have the information in our system. These verification efforts require us to ask you to provide information so that we can match it with information you have previously provided us. For instance, depending on the type of request you submit, we may ask you to provide certain information so that we can match the information you provide with the information we already have on file, or we may contact you through a communication method (e.g., phone or email) that you have previously provided to us. We may also use other verification methods as the circumstances dictate.

We will only use personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. To the extent possible, we will avoid requesting additional information from you for the purposes of verification. However, if we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us, we may request that you provide additional information for the purposes of verifying your identity and for security or fraud-prevention purposes. We will delete such additionally provided information as soon as we finish verifying you.

Other privacy rights

You may object to the processing of your personal information.

You may request correction of your personal data if it is incorrect or no longer relevant, or ask to restrict the processing of the information.

You can designate an authorized agent to make a request under the CCPA on your behalf. We may deny a request from an authorized agent that does not submit proof that they have been validly authorized to act on your behalf in accordance with the CCPA.

You may request to opt out from future selling of your personal information to third parties. Upon receiving an opt-out request, we will act upon the request as soon as feasibly possible, but no later than fifteen (15) days from the date of the request submission.

To exercise these rights, you can contact us by email at privacy@dyme.earth.
