Kristin Smith Photography respects your privacy and gives you full control over how your personal information is used. This page explains your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), including your right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information.

While I do not sell personal information, some cookies or tracking tools used on my website may be considered “sharing” for cross-site advertising purposes under California law. You may opt out at any time.

Your Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, you have the right to:

Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information

Request deletion of your personal information

Request corrections to inaccurate information

Limit the use or disclosure of sensitive personal information

Not be discriminated against for exercising your privacy rights


How to Opt Out of Sale or Sharing

You can exercise your rights in two simple ways:

1. Update Your Cookie Preferences

You can change your cookie settings at any time to turn off advertising or marketing cookies that may be considered “sharing” under California law.

Once the cookie preferences button is added to this page, you’ll be able to reopen the cookie banner and update your choices instantly.

In the meantime, you may manage cookies directly through your browser settings if you prefer.


2. Submit an Opt-Out Request by Email

You may also send your opt-out request directly to me at:

Please include “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” in the subject line.
I will process your request within the timeframe required by California law.


What Personal Information May Be Shared?

While I do not sell personal information, certain third-party tools used on my website may collect or process data for analytics or advertising. This may include:

IP address or general location

Browser and device information

Interaction data (pages visited, clicks, time spent on the site)

Information used for ad personalization or performance

Examples of tools that may collect this type of data include Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Pinterest Tag, and other advertising or analytics services.

If you disable marketing or advertising cookies, this type of sharing will stop.


Verification Process

To protect your privacy, I may need to verify your identity before completing certain types of requests. This helps ensure your information is only shared with you or your authorized representative.


Authorized Agents

You may appoint an authorized agent to submit privacy requests on your behalf. Proof of authorization may be required.

Changes to This Page

I may update this page as privacy laws evolve or if I make changes to how personal information is collected or used. A new “Last Updated” date will appear at the top whenever this happens.
