## 5. Your Rights Under the Oregon Consumer Privacy Act (OCPA)
If you are a resident of Oregon, and we meet the requisite processing thresholds set by the OCPA (effective July 1, 2024), you are granted specific rights regarding your personal data:
- **Right to Know/Access:** You have the right to confirm whether we process your personal data and to access such data, including learning specific third parties to whom the data was disclosed.
