THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We collect or receive the following types of information:

Personal Information

We may collect your personal information, such as name, company name, IP address and email or physical address, from you directly, or indirectly, through business relationships, or from publicly available online sources. We will collect, use, disclose, transfer, retain or otherwise process your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Payment Information

If you purchase our products or services, a third-party payment processor may receive access to your payment information (such as credit card number and billing address) for the sole purpose of processing transactions. Any such payment processors will be bound to maintain all such personal information in a secure environment, keep it confidential and not use or disclose such information for any purpose other than to validate purchases.

Cookies

We collect information using “cookie” technology. Cookies are small packets of data that a website stores on your computer’s or mobile device’s hard drive (or other storage medium) so that your computer or device will “remember” information about your visit. We use both first and third-party session cookies and persistent cookies. Where available, the ability to accept cookie placement may be found in a cookie banner first displayed on the Website and, if available, in the cookie preferences.

Below is a general primer on session and persistent cookies; information collected by cookies depends on its particular purpose and the cookie preferences, if available, may have additional information. For more information, please see Information from Third-Party Analytics Providers below. 

• Session Cookies: We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our Website and other BASF websites and platforms. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. 
• Persistent Cookies: A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time or until you delete them. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your web browser’s “help” file. To the extent we provide a log-in portal or related feature on our Website or other BASF websites or platforms, persistent cookies can be used to store your passwords so that you don’t have to enter it more than once. Persistent cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our visitors to personalize the experience on our Website or other BASF websites or platforms.

In some cases, we may associate information that you have provided to us (e.g., email address) with the cookies that we use. In addition to facilitating the purposes described above, this is useful in understanding your engagement with other content related to our Website or other BASF websites or platforms (e.g., email open rates, URL click-throughs).

If you do not want us to place a cookie on your hard drive, you may be able to turn that feature off on your computer or mobile device and, where available, may decline the placement using a cookie banner. Please consult your browser’s documentation for information on how to do this and how to delete persistent cookies via your browser. However, if you decide not to accept cookies from us, certain aspects of our Website or other BASF websites or platforms may not function properly or as intended.

We may use one or more third–party analytics services to evaluate your use of our Website or other BASF websites or platforms, as the case may be, by compiling reports on activity (based on their collection of IP addresses, Internet service provider, browser type, operating system and language, referring and exit pages and URLs and other similar usage data) and analyzing performance metrics. These third parties use cookies and other technologies to help collect, analyze, and provide us reports or other data.

By accessing and using our Website or other BASF websites or platforms, you consent to the processing of data about you by these analytics providers in the manner and for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.

Knowing Your Rights Under the CCPA

The CCPA provides consumers with specific rights regarding their Personal Information. In this section, we describe your rights under CCPA and explain how to exercise those rights. 

Access to Specific Information Right

You have the right to request that BASF disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your Personal Information over the past 12 months or a longer period of time, but we may not be able or the effort may be disproportionate to the request for that longer time period.  If you wish to exercise your right to access, you must submit a verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Correction and Deletion Rights).

Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Verification Process and Response Timing and Format sections below), we will disclose to you any of the following pieces of information that apply to the extent these are included in your request, unless an exception or other grounds to deny the request in whole or in part applies under applicable law.  In the event an exception applies, we will notify you of such exception or grounds when we respond to your request.

• The Categories of Personal Information we collected about you.
• The Categories of Sources for the Personal Information we collected about you.
• Our Business Purpose for collecting or disclosing that Personal Information.
• The Categories of third parties with whom Personal Information may have been disclosed.
• The specific pieces of Personal Information we collected about you.
• If we sold, shared or disclosed your Personal Information, separate lists disclosing:
  • sales, identifying the Personal Information categories that each Category of third party purchased;
  • Categories of Personal Information that were shared with each Category of third party with whom it was shared; and
  • disclosures for a Business Purpose, identifying the Categories of Personal Information that each Category of third party obtained.

Correction Request Rights

You have the right to request that BASF correct your Personal Information if it is inaccurate, subject to certain exceptions. If you wish to exercise this right, you must submit a verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Correction and Deletion Rights).

Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Verification Process and Response Timing and Format sections below), we will correct (and direct our service providers and contractors to correct) your Personal Information in our records, unless we determine that the new Personal Information is more likely not accurate, it would be either impossible or require disproportionate effort, or an exception or other grounds to deny the request applies under applicable law.  In the event an exception or law applies to the denial of the request, we will notify you of such exception or grounds when we respond to your request.  Additionally, if correcting the Personal Information would be impossible or require disproportionate effort, we will provide an explanation of that situation.  In such an event you may have the option of requesting the Personal Information to be deleted.

Deletion Request Rights

You have the right to request that BASF delete your Personal Information, subject to certain exceptions. If you wish to exercise this right, you must submit a verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Correction, and Deletion Rights).

Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Verification Process and Response Timing and Format sections below), we will delete (and direct our service providers and contractors to delete) your Personal Information from our records, unless an exception or other grounds to deny the request to delete applies under applicable law.  In the event an exception applies, we will notify you of such exception or grounds when we respond to your request.  We will keep a record of your request.

Exercising Access, Data Correction and Deletion Rights

To exercise the access, data correction, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by one of the following methods:

• Website. A consumer may submit a request by completing the Request Form.
• Calling us at 800-831-2191. A consumer may submit a request by calling the number to receive a voicemail message.  BASF will call back to provide more instructions and procure verification information.

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access twice within a 12-month period.

Verification Process

A verifiable consumer request must:

• Provide sufficient information in response to the website/email/phone verification questions asked in the creation of your request that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative of such a person.  In the event we need additional information, such as confirmation of the accuracy of Personal Information or of an individual’s status as an authorized representative, we will reach out to you personally or your authorized representative to ask additional questions or gather additional information.
• Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
  

We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request. BASF or a third party on behalf of BASF may follow up with you to determine whether a request is a verifiable consumer request under applicable law.

If we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you, BASF will deny the consumer request in whole or in part and will not to disclose the information requested or, as applicable, will not delete the information requested. BASF will respond to any such consumer request with a denial and will also explain why it has no reasonable method by which it can verify the identity of the requestor.

However, if a consumer request that seeks disclosure of specific pieces of Personal Information is denied because we cannot verify the identity of the person making the request under the applicable verification rules under the CCPA, then we shall treat the request as one that seeks the disclosure of the categories of Personal Information and apply the verification rules in the CCPA applicable to requests for disclosure of categories of Personal Information.

If a consumer request that seeks disclosure of categories of Personal Information is denied because we cannot verify the identity of the person making the request under the applicable verification rules in the CCPA regulation, then we shall provide or direct the requestor to our general business practices regarding the collection, maintenance and sale of Personal Information as set forth in this Privacy Policy. 

Response Timing and Format

We will confirm receipt of a verifiable consumer request within ten (10) days of its receipt.

We will respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to an additional 45 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. If you do not indicate a preference for delivery, BASF will use its discretion in choosing the method for delivery of the information.

The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before processing the request.

Personal Information Sales  and Sharing Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights

You have the right to opt-out of any sale or sharing and to later opt back into that sale or sharing. Please visit the Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link in order to make your request to opt out of the sale of your Personal Information, and to receive instructions for how you can opt out of the sharing of your Personal Information.  You may opt out of the sharing of your Personal Information with Distributors who may have received your information in order to follow-up with you about BASF products using this link as well.

For your convenience, in order to opt out of that sale or sharing that occurs via automated technologies on our Website, you may reject the setting of any cookies using the cookie banner.  If you have already accepted cookies and now wish to reject them, you can visit your cookie preference center to change your cookie settings or visit your browser to delete cookies pursuant to their process. Additionally, you may opt-out by implementing the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) signal in your browser. You can go to this website to learn more about the GPC signal and how to implement it: https://globalprivacycontrol.org/.  This information may also be found at the Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link.

BASF does not knowingly sell or share the Personal Information of consumers who are less than 16 years of age. 

Non-Discrimination

• Deny you goods or services.

• Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
• Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
• Retaliate against an employee, job applicant, or independent contractor

We may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by law from time to time that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your Personal Information’s value and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt in consent, which you may revoke at any time. See Financial Incentive section below.

Right to Designate an Authorized Agent

If you submit a request for access and portability or deletion through the use of an authorized agent, we may require that you (i) provide the authorized agent written permission to act on your behalf, and (ii) verify your identity directly with us. We may deny a request from an authorized agent that does not submit proof of authorization or where you have not verified your identity directly with us.

Financial Incentives

Details about specific financial incentives such as materials terms, the categories of Personal Information implicated, how you may opt-in to the incentive program, how you may exercise the right to withdraw, and a good faith estimate of the value of the data shall be disclosed by BASF to you at or before you provide BASF with your Personal Information in exchange for such financial incentives.
