-
The business purposes for which the information is used, and the length of time for which the information is required to achieve those purposes;

-
The privacy impact of ongoing retention on the consumer; and
-
The manner in which information is maintained and flows through our systems, and how best to manage the lifecycle of information in light of the volume and complexity of the systems in our infrastructure.
Individual pieces of personal information may exist in different systems that are used for different business or legal purposes. A different maximum retention period may apply to each use case of the information. Certain individual pieces of information may also be stored in combination with other individual pieces of information, and the maximum retention period may be determined by the purpose for which that information set is used.

10. CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS
The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) provides California residents with rights to receive certain disclosures regarding the collection, use, and sharing of personal information, rights to access, delete, correct certain personal information we collect about them, restrict us from “selling” or “sharing” certain personal information, and limit our use of sensitive personal information, as defined by the law and described in the categories below. These rights apply to all residents of California, regardless of whether you are an investor, website visitor, or business contact. As a California resident, you have a right not to receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of your privacy rights.
The following chart describes our practices with regard to the collection, use, and retention of your personal information. The categories we use to describe the information are those listed in the CCPA. Certain personal information may fall into multiple categories, and in some circumstances, how we use and how long we keep the information within each category will vary. The examples of personal information listed below are illustrative and do not represent a complete description of the information we process.

Sources: Directly from you; analytics partners.
Purpose of collection and use: All purposes listed in How We Use Your Information.

Sale, Sharing, and Other Disclosure of Personal Information
Any category of personal information listed in the chart above may be disclosed for a business purpose to service providers and contractors, which are companies or individuals that we engage to conduct activities on our behalf. Service providers and contractors are restricted from using personal information for any purpose not related to our engagement.
The CCPA also requires us to provide you with information regarding the parties to whom we “sell” or “share” your information, and the parties to who we disclose your information for a business purpose. Under the CCPA, a business “sells” personal information when it discloses personal Information to a company for monetary or other benefit. A company may be considered a third party either because the purpose for its sharing of personal information is not for an enumerated business purpose under the CCPA, or because its contract does not restrict it from using personal information for other purposes. We do not “sell” or “share” your personal information.
We may disclose your information in other ways that are not considered sales under the law. Please see “How We Share Your Information” above for more information about how we share your information.
Right to Access, Correction, and Deletion
You have the right to request access to personal information collected about you and information regarding the source of that information, the purposes for which we collect it, and the third parties and service providers with whom we share it. You also have the right to request we correct inaccurate Personal information and to request, in certain circumstances, that we delete any Personal information that we have collected directly from you.
You may submit a request to exercise your rights to know/access, correct, or delete your personal information by emailing us at info@oxlandtx.com . You may authorize another individual or a business registered with the California Secretary of State, called an authorized agent, to make requests on your behalf through these means.
In order to process your request, we must verify your request. We do this by asking you to provide personal identifiers we can match against information we may have collected from you previously and confirm your request using the email account stated in the request. We may have a reason under the law why we do not have to comply with your request, or why we may comply with it in a more limited way than you anticipated. If we do, we will explain that to you in our response.
Right to Opt Out of Sale/Sharing
We do not sell or share your personal information and therefore do not offer an option to opt out.
Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information
We only process sensitive personal information for such purposes and therefore do not offer an option to limit further processing of sensitive personal information.
