Notice to Customers who reside in California
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) exempts certain non-public personal information which is covered by the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act (GLBA), a federal privacy law that applies to financial institutions, like Remitly. What this means is that your non-public personal information that you provide to us to obtain our Service, that results from any transaction you make using our Service, or that we otherwise obtain about you in connection with us providing our Service to you (GLBA Personal Information), is not subject to the various requirements set out in the CCPA. We do not collect non-public personal information about you that is outside a Transaction or the provision of our Services.
Please be assured
that we take the privacy of your GLBA Personal Information very
seriously. Your GLBA Personal Information is protected under the GLBA
which places certain obligations on us, and affords you certain
rights, all of which are set out in this Policy.
The rights you
have in the event that your non-encrypted or non-redacted GLBA
Personal Information is subject to unauthorized access and
exfiltration, theft, or disclosure as a result of our failure to
implement and maintain reasonable and appropriate security procedures
and practices remain.
