Your Rights and Choices

California residents are entitled to certain rights relating to your Personal Information, including the following:

  1. You have the right to a copy of your Personal Information in our possession, or to request information about the categories of Personal Information we have collected about you, the categories of sources from which we collected the Personal Information, the purposes for collecting, sharing or selling the Personal Information (where applicable), the categories of third parties with whom we have shared or sold your Personal Information and the purpose for which we shared or sold your Personal Information (where applicable), and information about the specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you.
  2. You have the right to request that we correct in our records any Personal Information about you that is inaccurate.
  3. You have the right to request the deletion of Personal Information that we collected about you and retained, subject to certain exceptions.
  4. You have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your Personal Information with third parties for targeted advertising purposes, where such a “sale” or “sharing" is occurring (as such terms are defined by applicable law).
  5. You have the right to limit the use or disclosure of your sensitive Personal Information, where collected and as permitted under applicable law.

California residents wishing to submit a verifiable request to exercise these rights, where applicable, can do so (up to twice within a 12 month period) by either:

  • Calling us at 603-626-2300; or
  • Submit a Subject Access Request ("SAR") by completing a SAR using our online portal or by completing a specific form using the following links as a Microsoft Word or PDF file.  If downloading the form, you may submit the completed SAR to privacy@allegromicro.com or print the form and send it to Allegro’s attention at the appropriate address as detailed in the “Our Contract Details” section below. For any queries about the content or how to complete the SAR please contact Allegro at privacy@allegromicro.com

For your protection, when you seek to exercise the rights described above, it will be necessary for us to verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm that the Personal Information relates to you. We will verify your identity by asking you to provide identifying information that we will match to information in our records. Only you or a person that you authorize in writing to act on your behalf may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Information. You (or your authorized agent) must provide documentation signed by you demonstrating that the agent is authorized to submit a verifiable consumer request on your behalf. If you make a verifiable request per the above, we will confirm our receipt and respond in the timeframes prescribed by the CCPA, typically within 45 days.

Please note that your right to delete Personal Information is subject to certain exceptions by law. If you submit a request for deletion and we retain any Personal Information under one or more of these exceptions, we will explain this to you in our response.

In accordance with your rights under the CCPA, we will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your privacy rights under California law or applicable law. We do not charge a different price or rate or provide a different level or quality of products or services based on you exercising your privacy rights.
