Parallax uses a two-step confirmation process to confirm any online Right to Delete request (but not any other type of verifiable request).  If you submit an online Right to Delete request, we will contact you to request additional confirmation of your request.

We cannot respond to your verifiable request if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm that the personal information relates to you. For this reason, your request must both:
provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative; and describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

If you have a password-protected account with Parallax, we may require you to verify your identity through our existing authentication practices for the account.  We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
