How to Submit a Request
You may submit a request to exercise your rights to know/access or delete your Personal Information through any one of three means:
- By emailing us at openworld@digipen.edu
- By calling us at (425) 629-5046
- By filling out a Consumer Data Request Form
Verification Procedures
In order to process your request to know/access or delete Personal Information we collect, disclose, or sell, we must verify your request. We do this by asking you to:
- provide personal identifiers, such as your name, email address, and or birthdate (if available), we can match against information we may have collected from you previously; and
- confirm your request using the email or telephone account stated in the request.
Authorized Agent
You may authorize another individual or a business registered with the California Secretary of State, called an authorized agent, to make requests on your behalf. We require that you and the individual complete notarized affidavits in order to verify the identity of the authorized agent and confirm that you have authorized them to act on your behalf. Parents of minor children may submit a birth of the child certificate in lieu of an affidavit, in order to make requests on the child’s behalf. Please see our required affidavits here.
Sale of Personal Information to Third Parties
Under the CCPA, to “sell” information means to disclose it to a company for monetary or other benefit. According to this definition, we sell information to third parties. You have the right to opt out of the sale of your Personal Information by DigiPen to third parties. A company may be considered a third party either because the purpose of sharing is not an enumerated business purpose under California law, or because our contract does not restrict them from using Personal Information for other purposes.
We sell the following information:
- Personal Identifiers:
- We provide your IP address and Device ID to our advertising and analytics partners.
- Inferences drawn to create a profile about a consumer reflecting the consumer’s preferences or characteristics: We provide our observations about you to our analytics and advertising partners.
Please note that your right to opt out does not apply to our sharing of Personal Information with service providers, who are parties we engage to perform a function on our behalf and are contractually obligated to use the Personal Information only for that function.
