This Privacy Policy sets out the terms and conditions under which we may process any information that we collect from you, or that you provide to us. It covers information that could identify you and information that could not. In the context of the law and this notice, “process” means collect, disclose, store, transfer, use or otherwise act on information.

10. How Do We Protect Your Personal Information
We strive to implement reasonable measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access or use. However, we cannot guarantee with 100 percent certainty that your personal information will be secure from theft, loss, alteration, misuse, or unauthorized access, nor do we make any representation as to the reasonableness, efficacy, or appropriateness of the measures we use to safeguard such information. We are not responsible for any attempt made by a third party to circumvent our privacy and security protocols. Please immediately contact drink@barcoopbevy.com in the event that you feel the security of your member account has been compromised.
11. California Consumer Privacy Act
The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) requires Barcoop Bevy in certain circumstances to provide additional privacy-related information to California residents. As set forth above, we have identified the categories of Personal Information we may collect, which correspond with the categories of personal information provided under the CCPA. If you reside in California, you can make the following more specific requests with respect to your personal information:
- Access – You can request that we disclose to you the categories of personal information we collected about you, the categories of sources from which we collected the personal information, the categories of personal information we sold or disclosed, our business or commercial purpose for collecting and selling the personal information, the categories of third parties with whom we shared the personal information, and the specific pieces of personal information we collected about you over the past 12 months.
- Deletion – You can request that we delete your personal information that we maintain about you, subject to certain exceptions.
- Do Not Sell My Personal Information – You can request that we not sell your personal information by clicking Do Not Sell My Personal Information. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “sale” of personal information refers to data collection for the purpose of creating advertising and other communications. Although, Barcoop Bevy is not in the business of selling personal information, we may share certain information with our marketing partners.
- Right Not To Discriminate - California consumers also have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment if they exercise the California privacy rights listed above.
You may make this request up to two time in a 12 month period. When you make a privacy rights request under California law, we may require that you provide information and follow procedures so that we can verify the request and your jurisdiction before responding to it. The verification steps we take may differ depending on the request you make. We will match the information that you provide in your request to information we already have on file to verify your identity. If we can verify your request, we will process it. If we cannot verify your request, we may ask you for additional information to help us verify your request.
California consumers will be required to submit their first and last name and email address and may also be asked to provide their telephone number, address, or other identifying information so that we can verify the request. Please provide as much of the requested information as possible to help us verify the request. We will use the information received in a request for the purposes of responding to the request.
California law permits California consumers to use an authorized agent to make privacy rights requests. We require the authorized agent to provide us with proof of the California consumer’s written permission (for example, a power of attorney) that shows the authorized agent has the authority to submit a request for the California consumer. An authorized agent must follow the process described below to make a request. The authorized agent must also verify his/her own identity. We may confirm the agent’s authority directly with the California consumer about whom the request was made.
California consumers may submit a privacy rights request, including a request to exercise their right to opt-out of the sale of their personal information, by sending us an email at drink@barcoopbevy.com, or writing us at the addresses listed below. Indicate in your letter that you are a California resident making a “CCPA” inquiry.
12. California Shine The Light Law
In addition to the CCPA requirements set forth above, if you reside in California, you have the right under California Civil Code §1798.83 to ask us one time each year if we have shared your personal information with third parties for direct marketing purposes. To make a request, please send us an email, or write to us at the address listed below. Indicate in your communication that you are a California resident making a “Shine the Light” inquiry.
13. Changes To This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to update, change or replace any part of this Privacy Policy by posting updates and changes to the Site. It is your responsibility to check the Site periodically for changes. Your continued use of or access to the Site following the posting of any changes to this Privacy Policy constitutes acceptance of those changes.
