Exercising Your Rights
To exercise the rights described above, please submit a verifiable request to us by clicking on the following link: Your Privacy Choices or emailing us at [email protected] or calling us toll-free at (727) 251-5214.
Only you or a person whom you authorize to act on your behalf may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. To ensure your privacy, we reserve the right to deny a request from an authorized agent who does not provide proof of authorization to act on your behalf. If you wish to authorize someone else to act on your behalf, please note that Robert Kline Art may require a signed written permission from you, unless the authorized agent has a power of attorney. However, if you are making a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child, you may proceed.
Our verification process works as follows:
- Password-protected accounts: If you have a password-protected account with us, we will use password authentication to verify your identity.
- Non-password-protected accounts: If you don’t have a password-protected account, we will ask you to confirm certain information we have on record about you, such as your email address and billing zip code, in order to protect your privacy.
If you are making a request to correct your personal information, we will work with you to find an alternative means of verifying your identity that does not involve the subject matter of the correction request. We may also require additional information from you to demonstrate that our data is incorrect. This information will only be used and maintained by the business for the purpose of correcting your personal information and complying with any record-keeping obligations under the law. If you request to delete your personal information online, we may need to confirm your request before deleting your information.
You can make a verifiable consumer request up to two times within a 12-month period free of charge. Please note that we cannot respond to your request to delete, correct, or provide personal information if we are unable to verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm that the personal information relates to you. Creating an account is not required to make a verifiable consumer request. The personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request will only be used to verify the requestor’s identity or authority.
We aim to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of receiving it, and opt-out requests will be processed within 15 days. If we need more time to respond, we will inform you of the reason and the extended time period, which can be up to 90 days. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our response to the email associated with that account. If you don’t have an account, you can choose to receive our response by mail or electronically. Any disclosures we provide will cover only the 12-month period prior to the request, unless you specifically request information collected after January 1, 2022. Our response will also explain any reasons for non-compliance with a request, if applicable.
You have the right to appeal any denial of a consumer right. If your request is denied in whole or in part, you can appeal the decision within 30 days. We will review and respond to your appeal within 45 days. If your appeal is denied, we will provide an explanation of our reasons and describe any further rights you may have at that time.
Right to Equal Service: We will not discriminate against you for exercising your consumer rights under applicable laws. This means we will not deny you goods or services, charge you different prices or rates, provide a different level or quality of goods or services, or suggest that you may receive different prices, rates, or quality.

Right to Restrict Processing
EU residents and citizens have the right to request the suspension of the processing of their personal information by Robert Kline Art in certain scenarios. For example, you can request a suspension if you want us to verify the accuracy of your data or if you have objected to our use of your data and we need to determine whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to continue using it. When processing is restricted, we are allowed to retain sufficient information about you to ensure that the restriction is respected in the future.
Right to Data Portability:
EU residents and citizens have the right to have their data stored with us transferred, copied, or transported in a secure manner without affecting its usability.
