We do not provide these access and data portability rights for B2B Personal Information.
CCPA Deletion Request Rights
California residents have the right to request that we delete any Personal Information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising CCPA Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights below), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) Personal Information about you from our records, unless an exception applies.
We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

- Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
- Comply with a legal obligation.
- Make other internal and lawful uses of that Personal Information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Exercising CCPA Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights
To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:
- Calling us at 1.609.448.4477
- Emailing us at privacy@americanakitchenandbar.com
- Visiting https://americanakitchenandbar.com/opt-out
Only California residents, or someone legally authorized to act on their behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to Personal Information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. Please note that Americana does not make its App and other Services available to children under the age of 16.
California residents may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:
- Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative; and
- Describe your request with enough detail to allow us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
We cannot respond to Personal Information requests or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you.
Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to Personal Information associated with that specific account.
We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
For instructions on exercising sale opt-out rights, see Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights below.
CCPA Response Timing and Format
We endeavor to respond to a verifiable CCPA consumer request within forty-five (45) days of receiving it. If we require more time up to 90 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 choice.
Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period before we receive the verifiable consumer request. 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 Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance, specifically text formatted file(s) which may contain plain text or delimited data.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable CCPA 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.
CCPA Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights
If you are 16 years of age or older, you have the right to direct us to not sell your Personal Information at any time (the “right to opt-out”). We do not collect or sell the Personal Information of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years of age. California residents who opt-in to Personal Information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time.
To exercise the right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) may submit a request to us by visiting the following Internet Web page link: https://americanakitchenandbar.com/opt-out
Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve (12) months before asking you to reauthorize Personal Information sales. However, you may change your mind and opt back in to Personal Information sales at any time by emailing us at Privacy@americanakitchenandbar.com
You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your CCPA opt-out rights. We will only use Personal Information provided in a CCPA opt-out request to review and comply with the request.
CCPA Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:
- Deny you goods or services.
- Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
- Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
- Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to the value of the Personal Information’s and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt in consent, which you may revoke at any time. Americana does not currently provide any financial incentives.
