This California Privacy Notice is effective as of January 1, 2023

This notice supplements Alto Pharmacy’s (“Alto”, “we”, or “us”) privacy policy and applies only to employees, contractors, and business partners that are residents of California (“California Personnel”).  This California Personnel Privacy Notice sets forth the disclosures and rights for California Personnel regarding their Personal Information, as required by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 ("CCPA"), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 ("CPRA"), and any implementing regulations adopted thereunder. Terms (including defined capitalized terms) used in this California Personnel Privacy Notice have the same meanings given in the CCPA and CPRA and the associated regulations, unless otherwise defined.


EXERCISING YOUR CALIFORNIA RIGHTS

California Personnel have the right to request: (1) that we disclose to you what Personal Information we collect, use, disclose, and sell, including the right to request that we provide to you the categories and specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you ("Right to Know"); (2) that we delete the Personal Information we collect from you ("Right to Delete"); and (3) that we correct inaccurate Personal Information we hold about you (“Right to Correct”). Exercise of these rights are subject to the meanings and exceptions set forth in the CCPA and CPRA. More information on each of these rights is below.


Verifying Your Requests

When you exercise your Right to Know, Right to Delete, and/or Right to Correct, we will take reasonable steps to verify your identity based upon the information you provide and the type of request you are making. We may require you to log into your internal personnel account or provide your unique personnel ID. We may also need to ask you to provide us with additional information to verify your identity and fulfill your request. We will only use any such information to verify your identity. If we cannot verify your identity, we will not be able to process the request. 


Authorized Agents  

You may elect to use an agent to submit a request on your behalf. If you choose to do so, your agent must follow the instructions below to make the request. You may also make a request on behalf of your minor child. When your authorized agent submits a request on your behalf, we will request written permission signed by you and authorizing your agent to make the request on your behalf. The written permission must state your full legal name as the subject of the request, the full legal name of the individual who is acting as your agent and must be clear about the scope of permission granted. Alternatively, your agent may, but is not required to, submit a copy of a power of attorney under Probate Code sections 4000-4465.  In either case, your agent should also indicate in their email the nature of the request. Your identity, in addition to your agent’s identity and authorization, will need to be independently verified for us to be able to fulfill the request. We may also ask you to directly confirm with us that you provided your agent permission to submit a request. Please keep in mind that if we do not receive adequate proof that your agent is authorized to act on your behalf, we will deny the request.

Right to Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information 

As disclosed in the chart below, we may collect certain information in connection with your employment with us that is considered Sensitive Personal Information under California law.

Alto’s use and disclosure of its personnel’s Sensitive Personal Information falls within this list of exceptions and we therefore do not offer such opt-out right at this time.
