Customer Privacy Requests (CCPA and CPRA) in Reveal

Leer en Español

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) require that companies holding Personally Identifiable Information (PII) such as name and contact details, and Sensitive Personal Information (SPI) such as SSN, driver license number, biometric information or geolocation, provide information about this data if requested. In other words, they must provide a mechanism for customers to obtain a copy of the personal information stored about themselves.

To meet this obligation, Verizon Connect users in North America can request a JSON manifest file detailing a customer’s personal information collected by, and stored in, Verizon Connect Reveal. This file contains personal data covering a period of up to 1 year. After a privacy request has been processed, this JSON file is available to download for 7 days.

The content below describes the steps required to view, make, and cancel customer privacy requests in Verizon Connect Reveal.

From the drop-down list, choose Privacy Request.
The list contains all privacy requests that you have made for your customers’ data.

Making a customer privacy request

You can make customer privacy requests if you have the appropriate permissions. Accounts with administrator rights have permission by default and can grant permission to other users.

To make a customer privacy request:

In the upper right corner of the Reveal screen, click Help.
From the drop-down list, choose Privacy Request.
Click NEW PRIVACY REQUEST. The personal information request form opens.
Make sure that the details shown under Who is making the request? are correct. If your details are incorrect, click on your account name in the upper right corner of the screen, select Settings > User and correct your details. When you return to the Customer Privacy Requests page and restart the new privacy request, your details are automatically updated.
If your details are correct, select the check box next to Click to confirm that all of your information above is accurate.
Enter at least one field to identify the customer you want to make the request for (first and last name, email address, or phone number). To get the best search results, enter as many of your customer’s details as possible and make sure that the fields use the same spelling used in Fleet. If you enter a first name you must also specify a last name.
Click SEARCH. A list of subjects that match the details you entered is shown.
Select the subject of the privacy request from those listed and then click SUBMIT. You can only request data for one person at a time. The bottom of the page expands to show more information.
Enter the date range of the request. The date range must be within the past 1 year.
Select the check box next to the following text, to show agreement: “I am submitting this request for personal information (PI) related to an individual consumer of my company who has made a request for this PI to my company. I understand that I will be responsible for security of the PI provided and for providing it to the requesting consumer.”
Click SUBMIT. A confirmation message is displayed and an email notification is sent to you, confirming this request. This is followed by another email when the request has been completed.
Click DONE. You are returned to the privacy request list, which now includes your new request. Click VIEW to see the status of the request, to download the privacy file once it is available, or to cancel the request.

Requesting additional personal information

Canceling a customer privacy request

You can cancel customer privacy requests if you have the appropriate permissions. Accounts with administrator rights have permission by default and can grant permission to other users.

Requests can be canceled if they are pending or if they were completed less than 7 days ago.

To cancel a customer privacy request:

To correct inaccurate Personally Identifiable Information (PII) returned as part of a privacy request, edit this information directly within Reveal (for example, driver names, phone numbers, or email addresses). To permanently delete this data, manually remove the related user or driver account. Note that only data that has been classified as PII and that is returned as part of a privacy request is deleted (that is, not information that might have been incorrectly manually entered elsewhere). Deletion of this information is permanent and cannot be recovered.
