For California residents, if any provision of these Additional Provisions conflicts with any provision in the remainder of the Policy, the provision in these Additional Provisions will control.
Collection of Personal Information
During the job application process, and, if you are hired by Tradesmen, during your employment with Tradesmen, Tradesmen will collect certain “Personal Information,” about you. Also, if you or your company is seeking to become, or is, a client of Tradesmen as a sole proprietor or a limited liability company, Tradesmen may collect certain “Personal Information” about you. “Personal Information” is defined in California Civil. Code Section 1798.140(o), and includes, but is not limited to, the following categories:

D. Commercial information;
E. Internet or other similar network activity;
F. Geolocation;

Business Purpose for Collection, and Disclosure of, Personal Information
Tradesmen has and may disclose your Personal Information for a Business Purpose. “Business Purpose” means any purpose necessary or incidental to Tradesmen’s operation of its business, and shall include, but is not limited to, Tradesmen’s compliance with applicable laws, rules regulations, ordinances and court orders, confirming your identity, internal and external investigations and audits, evaluating your qualifications for employment by Tradesmen and/or for assignment to one or more Tradesmen clients, background checks, drug screens, skills testing and certification, invoicing, payment, payroll, garnishment, prevailing wage, employee benefits, and project prequalification requirements.

Your Right to the Deletion of Personal Information
Under California Civil Code Section §1798.105, you have the right to request that Tradesmen delete any Personal Information about you that Tradesmen has collected from you.
Upon Tradesmen’s receipt of a verifiable consumer request from you to delete your Personal Information, Tradesmen will delete your Personal Information from its records, notify any service providers or contractors to delete your Personal Information from their records, and notify all third parties to whom Tradesmen has shared the Personal Information to delete your Personal Information, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
Tradesmen may maintain a confidential record of deletion requests solely for the purpose of preventing the Personal Information of a consumer who has submitted a deletion request from being shared, for compliance with laws, or for other purposes, solely to the extent permissible under Title 1.81.5 of the California Civil Code.
A service provider or contractor must cooperate with Tradesmen in responding to a verifiable consumer request from you, and at the direction of Tradesmen, shall delete, or enable Tradesmen to delete and shall notify any of its own service providers or contractors to delete, Personal Information about you collected, used, processed, or retained by the service provider or the contractor. The service provider or contractor shall notify any service providers, contractors, or third parties who may have accessed Personal Information from or through the service provider or contractor, unless the information was accessed at the direction of Tradesmen, to delete your Personal Information unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.

Tradesmen, or a service provider or contractor acting pursuant to its contract with Tradesmen, another service provider, or another contractor, is not required to comply with your request to delete your Personal Information if it is reasonably necessary for Tradesmen, or the service provider or the contractor, to maintain your Personal Information in order to:
(1) Complete the transaction for which the Personal Information was collected, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law, provide a good or service requested by you, or reasonably anticipated by you within the context of Tradesmen’s ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform a contract between Tradesmen and you.
(2) Help to ensure security and integrity to the extent the use of your Personal Information is reasonably necessary and proportionate for those purposes.
(3) Debug to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
(4) Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise that consumer’s right of free speech, or exercise another right provided for by law.
(5) Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act pursuant to Chapter 3.6 (commencing with Section 1546) of Title 12 of Part 2 of the California Penal Code.
(6) Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research that conforms or adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when Tradesmen’s deletion of the information is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the ability to complete such research, if you have provided informed consent.
(7) To enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with your expectations based on your relationship with Tradesmen and compatible with the context in which you provided the information.
(8) Comply with a legal obligation.
Your Right to the Correction of Inaccurate Personal Information
You have the right to request a business that maintains inaccurate Personal Information about you to correct that inaccurate Personal Information, taking into account the nature of the Personal Information and the purposes of the processing of the Personal Information.
