We support you to review the Privacy Policy whenever you access the Services to stay informed about our information practices and how you can help protect your privacy.

How to Submit a Request for Access or Deletion?
If you would like more information or would like to submit a privacy-related request described above, you may do so by:
Verification of Request
Once you submit a request using one of the methods above, we will confirm your identity based on the information we receive from you. Typically, we may ask business contacts for their full name, email address, physical address, or phone number. If you are contacting us from an email address not on file, we may ask for at least one other data point we already hold (such as a bigdatarise event you attended). Depending on the data we have on file or other things, we may ask for more information. You can also select an authorized agent to exercise these rights on your behalf, who may do so through the methods outlined in How to Submit a Request for Access or Deletion above. However, we will require proof that the person is authorized to act on your behalf and still ask you to verify your identity directly. You may also make a privacy request on behalf of your minor child.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or have the authority to request personal data. We will use personal information provided in a request only to verify the requestor’s identity or management to make the request.
Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.
- Notice of Financial Incentive
- From time to time, We may offer rewards program(s), raffles, or other promotions during which you may provide personal information in exchange for rewards points, prizes, or other items which may create a financial incentive, the amount or nature of which will be defined in the terms and conditions provided for each promotion at the time the personal information is submitted. You may opt in to the business incentive by submitting your personal information.
- Each financial incentive related to submission and use of personal information is based upon our reasonable good faith estimate of the value of such information, which takes into consideration several factors such as expected revenue generated, anticipated expenses incurred for the collection, storage, and use of such information, and other relevant aspects related to the estimated value of such personal information to our business, as permitted.
