CCPA

This notice explains how Yin Yang Inc. (“ClonePartner”, “we”, “us”) approaches the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (together, the “CCPA”).

1. What Is the CCPA?

The CCPA gives California residents rights over their personal information — including the rights to know, access, correct, delete, and opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information — and imposes obligations on businesses that collect and process it.

2. Our Role: Service Provider

ClonePartner provides engineer-led data migration, integration, backup, and synchronisation services, together with an accompanying SaaS platform and optional self-hosted deployments. When a customer engages us and their data includes personal information about California residents, we act as a service provider (a processor, in GDPR terms): the customer decides what is processed and why, and we process it only to deliver the contracted services.

3. Our Commitments

We commit contractually — through our Data Processing Agreement — to the service-provider standard the CCPA requires:

• We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by the CCPA, and we receive no consideration in exchange for it.
• We process personal information only on the customer’s documented instructions and solely for the business purposes described in our agreement — never for our own commercial purposes.
• We do not retain, use, or disclose personal information outside our direct business relationship with the customer, and we do not combine it with personal information obtained from other sources.
• We retain personal information only for the duration of the engagement: staging databases used for cloud-delivered migrations are automatically purged no later than 30 days after project close (or earlier on request), and self-hosted deployments keep personal information entirely within the customer’s environment.
• We notify the customer if we can no longer meet our obligations, and the customer may take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate any unauthorised use of personal information.

4. Consumer Requests

If you are a California resident whose personal information reached us through one of our customers, please direct requests to know, access, correct, delete, or opt out to that business — as the party that decides how your information is used, it is best placed to act on your request. We support our customers in honouring these requests and forward any request we receive directly to the relevant customer without undue delay. Where an exception under Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.105(d) requires retention, we notify the customer of the applicable exception and quarantine the data from any other use.

For personal information we collect for our own purposes — for example, when you submit a form on clonepartner.com — see our Privacy Policy and contact legal@clonepartner.com to exercise your rights. That information is limited to identifiers (such as name and email address), professional information (such as company and role), and internet or usage activity (as described in our Cookie Policy). We do not sell or share that information either, and because we do not sell or share personal information, opt-out preference signals such as Global Privacy Control do not change how we process it. We will never discriminate against you for exercising any privacy right.
