1. Your Rights and Choices
The CCPA provides consumers with specific rights regarding their
Personal Data. This section describes these rights and explains how to
exercise them.
a. Right to Know About Personal Data
You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to
you about our collection, disclosure, sale and use of your Personal
Data. Once we receive and verify your request, we will disclose to you
the following (to the extent applicable to your request):

your Personal Data in the preceding 12 months.
You may exercise this right up to two times in any 12-month period.
a. Right to Request Deletion
You may also have the right to request deletion of your Personal Data.
We will honor such request, but might not be able to fulfill your
request if we (or our service providers) are required to retain your
Personal Data. Examples of such exceptions are:
- Completing a transaction or performing a contract we have with you;
- Detecting and addressing data security incidents, and repairing or
upkeep of our IT systems;
- Protecting against fraud or other illegal activity;
- Complying with applicable law or a legal obligation, or to exercise
rights under the law (e.g. the right to free speech); or
- Using your Personal Data internally to improve our Services.
a. Exercising Your Privacy Rights
To exercise the rights described above, please submit a verifiable
consumer request to us by either: using the following methods:
- Call us at: +1 (707) 653-5739
- Email us at: privacy@magic.link
- Submit a form at this
address: https://magic-fortmatic.typeform.com/privacy
i. What we need to know to fulfill your request
The verifiable consumer request must: (i) provide sufficient information
that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we
collected Personal Data or an authorized representative; and (ii)
describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly
understand, evaluate, and respond to it. We cannot respond to your
request or provide you with Personal Data if we cannot verify your
identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Data
related to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require
you to create an account with us.
Typically, accounts associated with an email address will require
verification of the email address, as well as a description of the
requested user rights or regulations invoked. Magic also values those
who are not covered by specific regulations, and offers to extend a good
will effort towards requests originating from other jurisdictions.
ii. How you will hear back from us
We will confirm receipt of a verifiable consumer request within then
(10) business days of its receipt. We will endeavor to respond to a
verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) calendar days of its
receipt. If we require more time, we will notify you of the extension
and provide an explanation of the reason for the extension in writing,
and we will provide you with a response no later than ninety (90)
calendar days of receipt of the request. If you have an account with us,
we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have
an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or
electronically, at your option. The response we provide will also
explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For
data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your
Personal Data that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit
the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.
We may charge a reasonable fee to process or respond to your verifiable
consumer requests if they are excessive, repetitive, or manifestly
unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will
inform you of the reasons for this decision and provide you with a cost
estimate before completing your request.
a. Right to Opt-Out of the Sale of Personal Data
We will not sell your Personal Data, and have not done so over the last
12 months.
b. Right to Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA
rights. We will not (i) deny you products or services, (ii) charge you
different prices or rates for products or services, including through
granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties (except for
financial incentives permitted by the CCPA, see below), (iii) provide
you a different level or quality of products or services, and (iv)
suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for products or
services or a different level or quality of products or services.
c. Right to Designate an Authorized Agent
If you submit a request to know or delete your Personal Data 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 their identity directly with us. We may deny a request from an
authorized agent that does not submit proof of authorization.

Addendum II -- GDPR Privacy Notice to European Residents**
**Effective as of: July 12, 2022**
If you are a resident of the European Union ("EU"), United
Kingdom, Lichtenstein, Norway, or Iceland, you may have additional
rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (the
"GDPR") with respect to your Personal Data, as outlined in this
GDPR Addendum (the "GDPR Addendum").
For this GDPR Addendum, we use the terms "Personal Data" and
"processing" as they are defined in the GDPR, but "Personal Data"
generally means information that can be used to identify a person, and
"processing" generally refers to actions that can be performed on data
such as its collection, use, storage or disclosure.
Magic will usually be the controller of your Personal Data processed in
connection with the Services. Note that we may also process Personal

processor of Personal Data. If we are the processor of your Personal
Data (i.e., not the controller), please contact the controller party in
the first instance to address your rights with respect to such data.
Where applicable, this GDPR Addendum is intended to supplement, and not
replace, our Privacy Policy. If there are any conflicts between the GDPR
Addendum and the other parts of the Privacy Policy, and you are a
resident of the EU, United Kingdom, Lichtenstein, Norway, or Iceland,
the provision that is more protective of Personal Data shall control to
the extent of such conflict. If you have any questions about this

Section I ("Personal Data We Collect and Share") and Section IV ("Why we
Collect, Use and Share Your Data") of the Privacy Policy explain how we
share your Personal Data with third parties.
- **How we Store and Protect Your Personal Data**
We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical
safeguards to protect your Personal Data from loss, misuse, and
unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction, for which
we take into account the nature of the Personal Data, its processing,
and the threats posed to it. Unfortunately, no data transmission or
storage system can be guaranteed to be secure at all times. If you have
reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure,
please immediately notify us via email at privacy@magic.link.
We retain your Personal Data for as long as needed to fulfill the
purposes for which we obtained it, as further described in this Privacy
Policy. We will only keep your Personal Data for as long as allowed or
required by law.
- **Your Data Protection Rights**
You have certain rights with respect to your Personal Data, including
those set forth below. For more information about these rights, or to
submit a request, please email us at privacy@magic.link. You are not
required to pay any charge for exercising your rights. If you make a
request, we have one month to respond to you. Please note that in some
circumstances, we may not be able to fully comply with your request,
such as if it is frivolous or extremely impractical, if it jeopardizes
the rights of others, or if it is not required by law, but in those
circumstances, we will still respond to notify you of such a decision.
In some cases, we may also need you to provide us with additional
information, which may include Personal Data, if necessary to verify
your identity and the nature of your request.

Personal Data we hold about you and request a copy of such Personal
Data. Users of Magic's dashboard can also access certain of your
Personal Data by logging on to your account.
- **Right to rectification**: If you believe that any Personal Data we
are holding about you is incorrect or incomplete, you can request
that we correct or supplement such data. Users of Magic's dashboard
can also correct some of this information (for example, email
address) directly by logging on to your account.
- **Right to erasure**: You can request that we erase some or all of
your Personal Data from our systems.
- **Right to restriction of processing**: You have the right to ask us

- **Right to data portability**: You can ask for a copy of your
Personal Data in a machine-readable format. You can also request
that we transmit the data to another controller where technically
feasible.
- **Right to withdraw consent**: If we are processing your Personal
Data based on your consent (as indicated at the time of collection
of such data), you have the right to withdraw your consent at any
time. Please note, however, that if you exercise this right, you may
have to then provide express consent on a case-by-case basis for the
use or disclosure of certain of your Personal Data, if such use or
disclosure is necessary to enable you to utilize some or all of our
Services.
- **Objecting to Legitimate Interest/Direct Marketing**: You may
object to Personal Data processed pursuant to our legitimate
interest. In such case, we will no longer process your Personal Data
unless we can demonstrate appropriate, overriding legitimate grounds
for the processing or if needed for the establishment, exercise, or
defense of legal claims. You may also object at any time to
processing of your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes by
clicking "Unsubscribe" within an automated marketing email or by
submitting your request to privacy@magic.link with the subject
line "GDPR Request." In such case, your Personal Data will no longer
be used for that purpose.
- **How to Complain**
If you have any concerns about our use of your Personal Data, you can
make a complaint to us at privacy@magic.link with the subject line
"GDPR Request."
You also have the right to lodge a complaint about the processing of
your personal data with a supervisory authority of the European state
where you work or live or where any alleged infringement of data
protection laws occurred. A list of most of the supervisory authorities
can be found here:

- **Corporate Restructuring**
In the event of a merger, reorganization, dissolution, or similar
corporate event, or the sale of all or substantially all of our assets,
the information that we have collected, including Personal Data, may be
transferred to the surviving or acquiring entity. All such transfers
shall be subject to our commitments with respect to the privacy and
confidentiality of such Personal Data as set forth in this GDPR
Addendum.
- **Transfers of Personal Data**
The Services are hosted and operated in the United States
("U.S.") through Magic and its service providers, and if you do
not reside in the U.S., laws in the U.S. may differ from the laws where
you reside. By using the Services, you acknowledge that any Personal
Data about you, regardless of whether provided by you or obtained from a
third party, is being provided to Magic in the U.S. and will be hosted
on U.S. servers, and you authorize Magic to transfer, store and process
your information to and in the U.S., and possibly other countries. You

- **Updates to this GDPR Addendum**
If, in the future, we intend to process your Personal Data for a purpose
other than that which it was collected, we will provide you with
information on that purpose and any other relevant information at a
reasonable time prior to such processing. After such time, the relevant
information relating to such processing activity will be revised or
