To provide services and carry out our business activities, certain authorized people have access to your information, including our employees, entities affiliated through common ownership or control with Paradigm, and third parties that provide and/or support our provision of services.

Your Rights and Choices
Certain state laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), may provide residents with specific rights regarding their personal information in addition to those addressed above. This section describes the rights you may have and explains how to exercise those rights.
Right to Access Specific Information and Data Portability Right. You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of personal information over the past twelve (12) months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:
Right to Correct Information. You have the right to request we update Personal Information about you that is incorrect in our systems.
Right to Delete. You have the right to request that we delete any personal information about you that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) the personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

Right to Limit Sensitive Personal Information Use. You have the right to limit the use of sensitive Personal Information regarding you.
Non-Discrimination. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights.
Exercising Your Rights
To exercise the access, data portability and deletion rights described above, you may submit a request by:
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 personal information about you. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.
You may only make such a 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 or an authorized representative, and describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate and respond to it.
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.
We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (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 electronically. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the receipt of the verifiable consumer request. 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 the 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.
Automated Decision-Making
Paradigm and its subsidiaries, including Welvie, leverage technology, analytics, and AI-assisted tools to support our services; however, we do not engage in fully automated decision-making. Qualified personnel review all outputs produced through such tools and make all final determinations.
