Thank you for visiting the V&Z Enterprises website and for reviewing this Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”). Please know your privacy is important to us, and we respect your privacy. We want you to be familiar with how we collect, use, and share information. We reserve the right to change, modify, add, or remove provisions of this Privacy Policy, and we will post any changes to the Privacy Policy here, and include the date the Privacy Policy was updated.
Personal Information refers to any information, alone or in combination with other information, which can identify a person. This does not include information where identifiers have been removed. We seek to protect your Personal Information and your right to privacy and to comply with applicable privacy laws and regulations of states in the United States of America.
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. Your use of this website constitutes your acceptance to be bound by the Privacy Policy without limitation, qualification, or change. If at any time you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, we must require that you discontinue the use of this Site immediately.

Use of Cookies
Our website may use cookies and other tracking technologies (such as pixels, device identifiers, and web beacons.) Your web browser places cookies on its hard drive for record-keeping purposes, to enhance your experience, or to access or store information. You may choose to set your web browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you do so, note that some parts of the website may not function properly.
Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)
We comply with the requirements of COPPA in that we do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13. Therefore, this website is not directed to individuals under the age of 13, and we request that anyone under the age of 13 not provide Personal Information. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that his or her child has provided us with Personal Information without the consent of the parent or guardian, such as the child misrepresenting his or her age, we ask the parent or guardian to contact us at vadams@vzenterprise.net. If we become aware that we have inadvertently received Personal Information from a child under the age of 13, we will delete such information from our records. Please see our Terms of Use for additional information regarding the use of this Site by minors.
California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
This Privacy Policy is intended to comply with the CCPA, which provides certain rights to California residents. Under the CCPA, “Personal Information” means anything that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a California consumer or household.
If you are a California resident, under California law, you have the right to know about and request the following information regarding the Personal Information we collect and disclose for the period covering 12 months preceding your request:
The categories and specific pieces of Personal Information we collected;
The categories of sources from which we collected your Personal Information;
The business or commercial purpose for which we collected or sold your Personal Information; and,
The categories of third parties to whom we disclosed or sold your Personal Information.
V&Z Enterprises does not sell Personal Information. Please note, however, that the CCPA may consider some uses or sharing of your Personal Information as a “sale” to include sharing of Personal Information with third parties for valuable consideration. This may include agreements with third-party providers, as described below.
If you are a California resident, you have the right to request that we delete the Personal Information we collect, although this request may be denied if a legal exemption is applicable. Also, if you request, you have the right to receive notice of the categories of Personal Information about you.
In order to exercise your rights as a California resident under the CCPA, please contact us at vadams@vzenterprise.net. Please specify your full name, mailing, and email address, and the details about your request. We will respond to verifiable consumer requests consistent with the CCPA and its regulations. To ensure the request is coming from you and to protect your security, we may require that you provide certain information to us, including a declaration or affidavit under penalty of perjury, to verify your identity. You may also use an authorized agent to exercise your rights if the authorized agent has your power of attorney to act on your behalf.
Please note that we will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights under the CCPA, any other law, or this Privacy Policy generally.
Third-Party Providers
From time to time, we may establish a business relationship with other businesses. For example, we may contract with third-party providers to provide certain services, such as hosting, web maintenance, or receiving donations. We provide our third-party providers with the information necessary for them to perform these services on our behalf. Each such service provider is expected to use reasonable security procedures and practices appropriate to the nature of the information involved in order to protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. This Privacy Policy does not address, and we are not responsible for, the privacy, practices, or information of any third parties, including those third parties operating any website or service to which our website may link.
Links to Other Websites
Our website may contain advertisements from third parties and links to other websites. Any Personal Information you provide on the linked pages is provided directly to that third party and is subject to that third party’s privacy policy. This Privacy Policy does not apply to such linked sites, and we are not responsible for the content or privacy and security practices and policies of those websites or any other sites that are linked to or from our website. We advise that you learn about the privacy and security practices and policies of such other sites before providing your Personal Information to those sites. Please see our Terms of Use for additional information regarding links to third-party websites.
