The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) applies to businesses that collect the personal information from California residents, and the CCPA requires these businesses to provide notices regarding their data collection and their practices related to sharing this data. In addition, the CCPA provides California residents the right to make certain requests with respect to their data.
For purposes of this California Privacy Policy, the words “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to DebtBlue, LLC, and the terms “you” and “your” refer to California residents who are customers of DebtBlue, LLC. The specific personal information that we collect, use, and disclose relating to a California resident covered by the CCPA will vary based on our relationship or interaction with that individual. For example, this California Privacy Policy does not apply with respect to personal information that we collect about California residents in connection with providing our financial products and services for personal, family, or household purposes (i.e., information subject to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA)).
