12. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF
You acknowledge that any use of the Licensed Materials which is not in accordance with the terms of these Terms of Use or any violation of the restrictions imposed on its use of the Licensed Materials would cause irreparable harm to RPR for which there would be no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, you agree that in the event of any such violation, RPR will be entitled to immediate injunctive relief (temporary, preliminary or permanent, as the case may be) against you, in addition to such other rights and remedies to which it may be entitled by law. In the event any such injunction is entered, you will pay the reasonable expenses incurred by RPR in obtaining such injunction, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees.
13. MISCELLANEOUS
13.1 The provisions of these Terms of Use addressing disclaimers of representations and warranties, limitation of liability, indemnity obligations, intellectual property, injunctive relief, arbitration and governing law will survive the termination of these Terms of Use.
13.2 These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between RPR and you regarding the subject matter of these Terms of Use, and supersede all previous written or oral agreements. The Terms of Service will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. You expressly agree that the exclusive jurisdiction for any claim or dispute under the Terms of Service and or your use of the Site resides in the courts located in the County of Cook, in the State of Illinois, and you further expressly agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating any such claim or action. The foregoing provision may not apply to you depending on the laws of your jurisdiction. If RPR fails to insist upon or enforce strict performance by you of any provision of these Terms of Use, or to exercise any right under these Terms of Use, such a failure will not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment to any extent of RPR’s right to assert or rely upon any such provision or right in that or any other instance. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and will not be given any legal import.
13.3 The Site is controlled by or on behalf of RPR within the United States of America and RPR makes no representation that the material and information on the Site are appropriate or available for use in other locations, and access to them from territories where such material and information is illegal is prohibited. Those who choose to access the Site from other locations do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws.
13.4 If any one or more of the terms or provisions of these Terms of Use is deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable by any court in any jurisdiction, then any such term(s) or provision(s) will be deemed severable from the remaining terms or provisions in such jurisdiction and will not affect the validity and enforceability of such remaining terms or provisions.
13.5 These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior communications, understandings and agreements, oral or written.

The CCPA provides consumers (California residents) with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.
Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights
You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past twelve (12) months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion), we will disclose to you:
- The categories of personal information we collected about you.
- The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you.
- Our business or commercial purpose for collecting that personal information.

Deletion Request Rights
You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.
We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:
- Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
- Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
- Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
- Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
- Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.).
- Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
- Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
- Comply with a legal obligation.
- Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.
Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights
To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:
- Calling us at (877) 977-7576
- Emailing us at [email protected]
Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.
You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:
- Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative, which may include:
- First and Last Name
- RPR Login (User Name)
- NRDS ID
- Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.
Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that specific account.
We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
Response Timing and Format
We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.
If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.
Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily usable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance, specifically, encrypted through email, or by mail.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights
We do not sell your personal information. However, if you access a third party’s website via our Website, your identification information may be transmitted to the third party to utilize the third party service. By accessing any such link, you consent to the transmission of your identification information to the third party, you agree to review the third party’s privacy policy and terms of use, and you release RPR from all liability in connection with such sharing and the third party’s use of that personal information.
Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:
- Deny you goods or services.
- Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
- Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
