The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) requires that we disclose the categories of personal information we typically collect about a consumer.

Those categories are:

• (a) personal identifying information, like name, address and account number, as well as other identifying information, which we obtain from the consumer’s creditor, credit reports and other skip trace tools, and the consumer;
• (b) characteristics such as age, gender, etc., which we obtain from the consumer’s creditor and consumer’s credit report;
• (c) retail information, which we obtain from the consumer’s creditor;
• (d) retail information, which we obtain from the consumer’s creditor and the consumer’s credit report;
• (e) internet activity, which we collect if the consumer visits our website or payment portal;
• (f) geolocation data, which we obtain from process servers;
• (g) recordings, which are made when the consumer has a telephone conversation with us;
• (h) professional and employment related information, which we obtain from the consumer’s creditor, credit reporting agencies, and other skip trace sources; and
• (i) educational information, which we obtain from the consumer’s creditor, credit reporting agencies, and other skip trace sources.

All the information that is collected will be used for debt collection purposes. Helstowski & Helstowski Law Firm does not and will not sell personal information. The CCPA also allows consumers to request that businesses delete information that is collected, and also provides for some exceptions. Helstowski & Helstowski Law Firm believes that it falls within an exception. If you wish to request the categories of information or the actual information we have collected about you, or wish to request deletion of the information we have collected about, please call us at 1-800-891-6988.
