information regarding their personal data iConnections has collected (the categories of personal data collected, the source of such data, and how such data has been used);
a description of whether iConnections has disclosed their personal data to third parties, and if so what categories of data have been disclosed, and to what categories of third parties);
a copy of their personal data collected by iConnections in the past 12 months; and
that their personal data be deleted.
