You have the right to complain to the relevant supervisory authority and to a judicial remedy, but you must do so within one month of our refusal.
Data Controller. With the exception of processing payments, for which Stripe, Inc. is the Payments Data Controller; the Company is the “data controller,” as defined under the GDPR, or the legal entity which determines the purposes and means of the processing of Personal Information of the customers of the Company and visitors to its Website.

XIV. Disclosures Regarding U.S. State Data Privacy and Protection Acts
Several United States jurisdictions, including California and others, provide users with certain rights regarding their personal information, including the right to access, delete, correct and/or opt-out of the “sale” or "sharing" of their personal information (“State Laws”).
Based on the size of the Company and/or our activities, we are not currently subject to these State Laws but may become subject to them in the future. Nonetheless, the different State Laws, if applicable, would provide certain rights to residents of those states. While not subject to those laws, we are committed to transparency with respect to the collection and use of your personal data, so we provide the information below so that residents of those states, and all of our Users, understand how we interact with their personal information in the context of what would be required under those laws.
California “Shine the Light” Law
Under California Civil Code Section 1798.83, California customers are entitled to request information relating to whether a business has disclosed Personal Information to any third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. This code section applies to businesses with 20 or more full or part-time employees. At this time, the Company does not need to comply with this law, but does so voluntarily in an effort to assure you that we value your privacy.
You may request and obtain from us once a year, free of charge, certain information about the Personal Information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year. If applicable, this information would include a list of the categories of Personal Information that was shared and the names and addresses of all third parties with which we shared information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing to privacy@frenetic.ai.
California Consumer Privacy Act
Organizations who are subject to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) must provide a clear and conspicuous link titled “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” on their homepage and in their privacy policy in order to meet the requirements of the new CA privacy law effective as of January 1, 2020. The law applies to businesses with over $25 million in revenue, those handling information from 100,000 consumers, or deriving 50%+ annual revenue from selling consumer personal information. At this time, the Company does not need to comply with this law, but does so voluntarily in an effort to assure you that we value your privacy.
You may opt out of the Company’s sale of your personal information at any time by emailing us at privacy@frenetic.ai. Under the CCPA, “personal information” is defined to include information that identifies or relates to a particular consumer or household including, but not limited to, name, postal address, email address, IP address, social security number, personal property records, purchasing histories, biometric information, internet activity such as browsing or search history, geolocation data, employment information, education information and inferences drawn from this information, in so far as it is not publicly available information. The Company’s “sale” of personal information is broadly defined by the law to include selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a consumer’s personal information by the business to another business or a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration. In other words, most business to business transfers of personal information will fall within the definition of a sale.
The Company has provided visitors to our Website with a link to an Internet Web page on our Website enabling visitors to opt out of the “sale” of their “personal information.” Our Website also contains a recognizable and uniform opt-out logo or button to promote consumer awareness of the option to opt-out. Please feel free to access both for more information and to effectively opt out.
Additionally, If you are a California resident age 16 or older, as of January 1, 2020, the CCPA gives you certain rights with respect to the processing of your personal information.
Absent an exception, under the CCPA, we have 45 days to comply with your request.
