Verification Process
In order to authenticate your identity for any data related request, at a minimum, three pieces of identifying information will be required to be provided such as name, address, email address and phone numbers. This information will be included with your request or we may contact you after we receive your request and ask for additional information. In the event that a Pella account has been previously created, your username and password may be utilized to authenticate your identity.
Financial Incentives and Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you if you exercise any of the rights provided by the CCPA set forth in this California Privacy Policy. Please note that a legitimate denial of a request for information, deletion, or to opt-out is not discriminatory, nor is charging a fee for excessive or repetitive consumer requests as permitted by the CCPA.
However, we may provide financial incentives to consumers who allow us to collect, retain and disclose their Personal Information through marketing lead generation activities such as sweepstakes. These incentives may include payments to consumers, a lower price for goods or services, and/or a higher level of goods or services.
We provide the following incentive program:
- Sweepstakes – which require participants to provide unique identifiers such as name and email address in exchange for the chance to win a specified prize, a lower price for goods or services, and/or higher level of goods or services.
You may choose not to participate in the incentive program. If you have previously opted-in to the incentive program above and wish to opt-out, please click here or call 1-877-473-5527.
Our incentive program is permissible under the CCPA because the value of the incentive program is directly related to the value provided to the business by lead generation. We estimate the value of the aggregated pool of participant’s personal information provided as part of the incentive program to be on average at least $10,000, and we arrived at that figure by averaging the estimated value of the typical sweepstakes prize.
Deletion of Your Personal Information
You have the right to request that we delete certain Personal Information that we have collected. Please note that there are circumstances in which we may not be able to comply with your request pursuant to the CCPA, including when we cannot verify your request and/or when there is a conflict with our own obligations to comply with other legal or regulatory requirements. We will notify you following submission of your request if this is the case.

The link will take you to an interactive webform that you can complete and submit to make a request for deletion that we will then verify; if you use the telephone number, you will be guided through a process that will allow you to submit a verifiable request.

You may designate an authorized agent to exercise your rights under the CCPA on your behalf.
