Residents of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, Texas, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, or any other state with an applicable privacy law have certain rights relating to the collection, use, disclosure, and other processing of their Personal Information.
The exact scope of these rights depends upon whether you are a Consumer or a B2B Contact and may vary by state. In addition, certain exceptions may apply.

You may have the right to know what Personal Information we have collected about you, including the categories of sources from which the Personal Information is collected, the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing Personal Information, the categories of third parties to whom we disclose Personal Information, the categories of Personal Information disclosed to third parties, and the specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you.

- Right to Opt Out of Sale and Targeted Advertising. We use and disclose to third parties Personal Information for analytics and advertising purposes which may be considered a “sale” under applicable state laws.

To exercise your right to opt out of sale and targeted advertising, please click here or the “Your Privacy Choices” link in the footer of the Site. In some jurisdictions, you may choose to enable a tool that automatically communicates your opt-out preferences to all businesses that you interact with online. If you enable a browser-based opt-out preference signal, such as the GPC, upon receipt or detection, we will treat the signal as a valid request to opt out of sale, sharing, or targeted advertising linked to that browser and, where we can do so, consumer profiles that we have associated with that browser. Please note that if you use different browsers or browser profiles, you will have to enable the signal on each one that you use. We will never ask you to verify your identity to exercise your right to opt out of the sale of your Personal Information.
To exercise all other privacy rights, please contact us by phone at 1 (888) 711-6662 or email us at privacy@ooma.com. Please include the statement “Your Privacy Rights” in the subject field of your email.
To protect the confidentiality of yours and others’ Personal Information, we will only complete your request when your identity has been verified (other than for requests to opt out). We will seek to match the information in your request to the Personal Information we maintain about you. As part of our verification process, we may ask you to: submit additional information, use identity verification services to assist, or, if you have set up an account on our website, to sign into your account as part of our identity verification process. Where permitted under applicable law, we may decline a request if we are unable to verify your identity (or an agent’s authority to make the request) and confirm the Personal Information we maintain relates to you.
Authorized agents. In certain states, consumers may designate an authorized agent to exercise their privacy rights. You may designate an authorized agent to submit requests on your behalf using the methods described in this section. However, we may require written proof of the agent’s permission to do so and verify your identity directly with you.
Right to appeal. Depending on your U.S. state residency, you may have the right to appeal a decision we have made in connection with your privacy rights request. To appeal a refusal to take action on your request, please contact privacy@ooma.com or 1 (888) 711-6662. If you are unsatisfied with the way that we have handled your appeal, you may have the right to complain to your state’s attorney general.
Right to non-discrimination. You will not receive retaliatory or discriminatory treatment in connection with a request to exercise your privacy rights described in this section. However, the exercising of the rights described above may result in a different price, rate, or quality/level of product or service where that difference is reasonably related to the impact the right has on our relationship with you or is otherwise permitted by law.
You are not required to create an account to exercise your state privacy rights.
Response Timing and Format. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 45 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. 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.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer 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.
2. Interest-Based Advertising

We offer various financial incentives. For example, we may provide discounts, coupons and other benefits for customers who sign up to receive our marketing emails.
We may ask you to provide Personal Information in connection with these financial incentives, including the following Personal Information: email, name, and phone number. Because these promotions involve the collection of Personal Information, they may be interpreted as “financial incentive” programs or “bona fide loyalty programs.” We use this information for the purposes described above under Notice at Collection including for targeted advertising. We may share your Personal Information with third parties as described in Notice at Collection, including data analytics providers, advertising technology vendors, and social media platforms.
Participation in any financial incentive is optional.

To stop receiving our coupons or discounts in your email, you may unsubscribe from our emails by clicking the “unsubscribe” button at the bottom of any such email. If you ask us to delete your Personal Information, we will not be able to provide you with access to these programs. We may stand up new incentive programs from time to time – information on how to sign up and opt out of these programs will be provided as applicable.
The value of any financial incentive we offer is reasonably related to the value of any Personal Information you provide to us. We estimate the value of your Personal Information by considering, without limitation, the expenses we incur from collecting your Personal Information and/or providing the financial incentive to you, the revenue generated by your use of the financial incentive, and any improvements we can make to our products and services based on aggregating information obtained through the financial incentive program.
Please note that we may provide additional terms that apply to a particular financial incentive. If applicable, those terms will be presented to you at sign up.

Note Regarding MyPhone.

MyPhone users who are 13 years of age and over are subject to this main Privacy Policy.
