This page provides a voluntary opt-out mechanism and supports GPC signals. It does not mean that Context Studios is necessarily a covered business under CCPA/CPRA in every situation.
Your California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, you have the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).
Personal Information of Minors
We take special care to protect the privacy of minors. Our policy regarding the sale and sharing of personal information of consumers under 16 years of age is as follows:
- Under 13 years old: We do not knowingly collect, sell, or share personal information of children under 13. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete it immediately.
- Ages 13-15: We do not sell or share personal information of consumers between 13 and 15 years of age unless we have received affirmative authorization ("opt-in") from either the consumer or their parent/guardian.
- 16 years and older: Consumers 16 years of age and older have the same rights as adult consumers and can opt out of sale/sharing using the methods described on this page.
Sensitive Personal Information
Under CPRA, you have additional rights regarding sensitive personal information. We want to be transparent about our practices:
- We do not collect sensitive personal information such as Social Security numbers, financial account details, precise geolocation, racial/ethnic origin, religious beliefs, health information, sexual orientation, or genetic data.
- We do not sell or share sensitive personal information for any purpose.
- We do not use sensitive personal information to make inferences about consumers.
If we were to collect sensitive personal information in the future, you would have the right to limit its use and disclosure to what is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

Verification
For email requests, we may need to verify your identity to process your opt-out request. This helps protect your privacy and prevent fraudulent requests. We may ask you to:
- Confirm your email address
- Provide additional information to match our records (if you have an account)
Note: GPC and cookie settings do not require verification as they apply to your browser/device directly.
Effect of Opting Out

- ✓ Website will still function normally - All core features work without analytics
- ✓ Your privacy is enhanced - No behavioral tracking for advertising
- ✓ Essential cookies still work - Authentication, preferences, security remain
