CCPA

California Residents

This Section is only applicable to you if you are a resident of the state of California in the US (“California Residents”) and only applies to personal information for which Squarespace is a “Business” (as defined in the CCPA), but does not apply to personal information we collect from you in the course of our provision of services to you where you are an employee, owner, director, officer or contractor of a company, partnership, sole proprietorship, non-profit or government agency. It applies to personal information we collect from California Residents on or through our Services and through other means (such as information collected offline or in person). With respect to personal information for which you are a “Business” and Squarespace is a “Service Provider,” please see Section 3.7 of our Terms of Service. 

a.    Categories, business and commercial purposes, sources and third parties

California law requires us to disclose certain information regarding the personal information we collect. The following is a list of all categories of personal information which Squarespace collects, or has collected, from California Residents, in the twelve (12) months prior to the effective date of this Privacy Policy: 

Identifiers, such as your name and email address.

Commercial information, such as transaction data.

Financial data, such as partial payment information we receive from our payment processor.

Internet or other network or device activity, such as browsing history.

Location information, such as general information inferred from an IP address.

Sensory information, such as recordings of support calls.

Other information that identifies or can be reasonably associated with you.

We collect personal information directly from you (either directly or through a Third Party Service), automatically through your use of the services, and from third parties such as business partners, service providers, and payment processors.

We collect personal information for the following business purposes: (i) providing the Services (including without limitation maintaining your Account, processing and fulfilling orders, and administering surveys and contests); (ii) providing customer support for the Services; (iii) operating the Services (including without limitation managing third party relationships and enabling usage of our service providers); (iv) communicating with you; (v) customizing the Services; (vi) securing and protecting the Services (including without limitation auditing the Services, bug and fraud detection, debugging and repair of errors and the detection, protection and prosecution of security incidents or illegal activity); (vii) enforcing our terms and policies; (viii) complying with law; (ix) verifying your identity; and (x) other business purposes about which we may notify you from time to time.

b.    Your requests

Subject to certain exceptions and restrictions, the CCPA provides California Residents the right to submit requests to a business which has collected their personal information: (i) to provide them with access to the specific pieces and categories of personal information collected by the business about such California Resident, the categories of sources for such information, the business or commercial purposes for collecting such information, and the categories of third parties with which such information was shared; and (ii) to delete such personal information (each, a “California Request”).

We reserve the right to request additional information from you and/or individuals purporting to be authorized agents, such as when we suspect fraud.

California residents may opt out of the "sale" of their personal information. The CCPA broadly defines "sale" in a way that may include allowing third parties to receive certain information such as cookie identifiers, IP addresses and/or browsing behavior to add to a profile about your device, browser or you. Such profiles may enable delivery of interest-based advertising by such third parties within their platform or on other sites.

Depending on how you use the Services, we may share the following categories of information for such interest-based advertising which may be considered a sale (as defined by the CCPA): identification and demographics; device information and identifiers, such as IP address and unique advertising identifiers and cookies; connection and usage information, such as browsing history or app usage; and inference data.
