Notice of Right of California, Nebraska, and Texas Residents to Opt-Out of the Selling and Sharing of Your Information and Certain Profiling Activities
While we do not sell or share your personal information in exchange for money, we may sell or share your personal information for other valuable consideration. You have the right to tell us NOT to sell or share your personal information and to opt-out of certain profiling activities. You have the full and free right to opt-out of our disclosure of your personal information to any third parties where the disclosure constitutes “selling” or “sharing” as defined by the California Privacy Rights Act, the Nebraska Data Privacy Act, and the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act. You may exercise your right to opt-out without fear of discrimination for doing so. To opt-out of our selling or sharing of your information, meaning, we will not disclose your information to third parties for any monetary or other valuable consideration, you can do any of the following:
- Click HERE to be taken to an online opt-out submission form.
- You can use a Global Privacy Controls (GPC) signal. Tomatoes Extraordinaire, Inc. will process opt-out preferences from GPC signals, which are in formats commonly used and recognized by businesses, such as an HTTP field header, as requests to opt-out of sale or sharing. The GPC signal opt-out will only apply to the browser you are using on your device; it will not apply to other browsers and/or devices to which GPCs are not activated or to offline sales.
- If you are unable to submit an opt-out through any of the above methods, please call our toll-free privacy line at (877) 331-2897 for assistance and a representative will assist in meeting your needs.
You can have an authorized agent submit a request on your behalf. To submit an opt-out through use of an authorized agent, you must provide that agent with written permission signed by you to submit an opt-out on your behalf, except when using an opt-out preference signal. The authorized agent may call our toll-free privacy line at (877) 331-2897 to make the opt-out request and for directions for submitting the proof of authorization and the authorized agent’s proof of identification to the Company. We maintain the right to deny any request from an authorized agent that does not submit sufficient proof that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf.
A request to opt-out need not be a verifiable consumer request. However, we may deny a request to opt-out if we have a good faith, reasonable, and documented belief that a request to opt-out is fraudulent. If we deny your request to opt-out, we shall inform you of our decision not to comply and provide an explanation as to why we believe the request is fraudulent.
Opt-Out Preference Signals
Opt-out preference signals provide consumers with a simple and easy-to-use method by which to exercise the right to opt-out of the selling and sharing of their information. Global Privacy Controls (GPC) or Universal Opt-Out Mechanism (UOOM) are user-enabled opt-out preference signals which can communicate a user’s “Do Not Sell or Share” request on behalf of the person or device. We will process opt-out preferences from GPC and UOOM signals which are in formats commonly used and recognized by businesses, such as an HTTP field header. We will treat a consumer’s use of GPCs or UOOMs as a valid request to opt-out of the selling and sharing of information for that browser. We currently do not connect browser use to particular consumers and, as such, you will need to use GPCs or UOOMs on all browsers in which you access our website and use our opt-out form to opt-out of offline sales.
Do Not Track (DNT) is a privacy preference that users can set if they do not want web services to collect information about their online activity. We do not respond to DNT signals or other mechanisms (with the exception of GPCs and UOOMs) that provide a choice regarding the collection of personal information about activities over time and across different websites or online services. We encourage users who have DNTs to use GPCs or UOOMs.
We do not and will not use or disclose your sensitive personal information for purposes other than the following:
- To perform the services or provide the goods reasonably expected by an average consumer who requests those goods or services.
- To detect security incidents that compromise the availability, authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality of stored or transmitted personal information.
- To resist malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal actions directed at the business and to prosecute those responsible for those actions.
- To ensure the physical safety of natural persons.
- For short-term, transient use.
- To perform services on behalf of the Company.
- To verify or maintain the quality or safety of a product, service or device that is owned, manufactured, manufactured for, or controlled by the Company, and to improve, upgrade, or enhance the service or device that is owned, manufactured by, manufactured for, or controlled by the Company.
- For purposes that do not involve inferring characteristics about consumers, contractors, and job applicants.
Retention of Personal Information
We will retain each category of Personal Information in accordance with our established data retention schedule as indicated above. Some of the retention periods in the retention schedule above are measured from a particular point in time that has not occurred yet, such as the end of employment or end of a relationship (whether business, contractual, or transactional) plus a certain number of years. Where no particular event is defined in the retention schedule as the point from which the retention period is measured, we will measure the retention period from either: (1) the date the record or data was collected, created, or last modified; (2) the date of the particular transaction to which the record or data pertains; or (3) another triggering event that is determined to be reasonable and appropriate based on the nature of the data and the legal/business needs for its continued use.
In deciding how long to retain each category of personal information that we collect, we consider many criteria, including, but not limited to: the business purposes for which the Personal Information was collected; relevant federal, state and local recordkeeping laws; applicable statutes of limitations for claims to which the information may be relevant; and legal preservation of evidence obligations.
We apply our data retention procedures on an annual basis to determine if the business purposes for collecting the personal information, and legal reasons for retaining the personal information, have both expired. If so, we will purge the information in a secure manner.
Third Party Vendors
We may use other companies and individuals to perform certain functions on our behalf. Examples include administering e-mail services and running special promotions. Such parties only have access to the personal information needed to perform these functions and may not use or store the information for any other purpose.
Business Transfers
In the event we sell or transfer a particular portion of our business assets, information of consumers, contractors and applicants may be one of the business assets transferred as part of the transaction. If substantially all of our assets are acquired, information of consumers, contractors and applicants may be transferred as part of the acquisition.
Compliance with Law and Safety
We may disclose specific personal and/or sensitive personal information based on a good faith belief that such disclosure is necessary to comply with or conform to the law or that such disclosure is necessary to protect our employees or the public.

How We Will Verify That it is Really You Submitting the Request
When you submit a Right to Know, Right to Access, Right to Delete, or Right to Correct request through one of the methods provided above, we will ask you to provide some information in order to verify your identity and respond to your request. Specifically, we will ask you to verify information that can be used to link your identity to particular records in our possession, which depends on the nature of your relationship and interaction with us.
Responding to Your Right to Know, Right to Access, Right to Delete, and Right to Correct Requests
Upon receiving a verifiable request, we will confirm receipt of the request no later than 10 business days after receiving it. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable request within 45 calendar days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to an additional 45 calendar days, or 90 calendar days total from the date we receive your request), 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. 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 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 completing your request.
For a request to correct inaccurate personal information, we will accept, review, and consider any documentation that you provide, and we may require that you provide documentation to rebut our own documentation that the personal information is accurate. You should make a good-faith effort to provide us with all necessarily information at the time that you make the request to correct. We may deny a request to correct if we have a good-faith, reasonable, and documented belief that a request to correct is fraudulent or abusive. If we deny your request to correct, we shall inform you of our decision not to comply and provide an explanation as to why we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.
Responding to Your Request to Opt-Out of the Selling or Sharing of Your Personal Information and Certain Profiling Activities
We will act upon a consumer request to opt-out within 15 days of its receipt if you are a California resident and within 45 days of receipt if you are a Nebraska or Texas resident. We will notify all third parties to whom we have sold or shared personal information of your request and instruct them to comply with the request within the same time frame. We will notify you when this has been completed by mail or electronically, at your option.
A request to opt-out need not be a verifiable consumer request. However, we may deny a request to opt-out if we have a good faith, reasonable, and documented belief that a request to opt-out is fraudulent. If we deny your request to opt-out, we shall inform you of our decision not to comply and provide an explanation as to why we believe the request is fraudulent.
If You Have an Authorized Agent
You may be able to authorize someone else as an authorized agent who can submit a request on your behalf. To do so, you must either: (a) execute a valid, verifiable, and notarized power of attorney; or (b) provide other written, signed authorization that we can then verify. When we receive a request submitted on your behalf by an authorized agent who does not have a power of attorney, that person will be asked to provide written proof that they have your permission to act on your behalf, and we will also contact you and ask you for information to verify your own identity directly with us and not through your authorized agent. We may deny a request from an authorized agent if the agent does not provide your signed permission demonstrating that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf.
Appeal of Our Decision Regarding Your Request
For residents of certain states, in the event we refuse to act in response to your request, we will provide you with information regarding our appeal process. We will inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response to an appeal within a reasonable time after receipt of your appeal, including our written explanation of the reason or reasons for our decision.

Upon your request, we will identify such third parties. If you wish to exercise any of the rights detailed above, email us at .

If you believe that your rights have been infringed by the Company, you have the right to ask the Company to remedy the situation. If you believe you have not received an adequate response from the Company, you may file a complaint with the relevant DPA (either the DPA for the EU Member State in which you live or work or the Member State in which the alleged infringement occurred).
