Consumers Have Control of their Data
Here at SoCalGas, we ensure appropriate protection measures are taken when collecting, storing, using and reporting your information. Personal information, as per indicated in the CCPA as amended by the CPRA of 2020, may have been collected from California residents whom may be customers and non-customers (including employees, retirees, contractors, and job applicants) after signing up for service and/or using tools or programs we provide. The information we collect is used to optimize our services and communication to you.
Manage Your Personal Information with Us
Under the CCPA, effective January 1, 2020, we are providing consumers access to view and control their personal data. We do not sell any personal data collected. We do not have an opt-out for the sale of personal information because we do not sell personal information to businesses or third parties.
Please note that consumers may generally only make a request on behalf of themselves, or their minor children. We do not knowingly collect information from minors except for information collected from college applicants in the applications for the SoCalGas Scholarship Program.
