Your personal information collected by CDPH will not be disclosed, made available, or otherwise used for purposes other than those specified in the privacy notice, except with your consent, or as authorized by law or regulation. Further, information collected will only be that which is relevant to the purpose for which it is collected. CDPH works to safeguard any personal information collected and investigates privacy breaches and complaints involving unauthorized access or disclosure.


You have the right to access your personal information that is maintained by CDPH and may request correction of any inaccuracies in your records.
