CALIFORNIA PRIVACY STATEMENT
This California Privacy Statement supplements SISS’s General Privacy Policy and Security Notice and is intended for and applies solely to all visitors, users, clients, and others who reside in the State of California ("consumers" or "you"). We adopt this notice to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and any terms defined in the CCPA have the same
meaning when used in this notice. SISS is referred to in this Notice as “we” or “us”. This Notice explains how we collect, use, and disclose personal information about California residents.
​
Under the CCPA, “personal information” is information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly with a particular California resident or household (“Personal Information”).
