4.Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We may use the following technologies to enhance your experience:

• Cookies
• Pixels

These technologies help us improve website performance, measure marketing effectiveness, and enhance user experience. You may adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies, though some features of our website may not function properly as a result.

Specifically, we use the Meta (Facebook) advertising pixel and similar advertising tools on our website. These tools share information about your activity on our site, such as pages viewed and purchases made, with the advertising platform. That information may be used to measure the performance of our advertising and to show you advertisements for our services on other platforms. Under some privacy laws this is treated as "sharing" personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. See Section 10 for how to opt out.

We may share information with trusted third-party providers, including:

• Payment processors
• Website hosting providers
• Email marketing providers

These providers are authorized to use information only as necessary to provide services on our behalf and are required to protect it in a manner consistent with this Policy.

6.Data Security

We implement commercially reasonable security measures designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

7.Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed toward children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately and we will take steps to delete the information.

World Wide K9 Academy is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit.

10.California Privacy Rights

California residents may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (together, the "CCPA"), including:

• The right to know what personal information is collected, used, shared, or sold
• The right to request deletion of personal information
• The right to correct inaccurate personal information
• The right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information
• The right to non-discrimination for exercising privacy rights

Sale and sharing of personal information. We do not sell personal information for money. However, as described in Section 4, we use the Meta (Facebook) advertising pixel and similar advertising tools, which share information about your activity on our website with advertising platforms for cross-context behavioral advertising. Under the CCPA this may be considered "sharing," and in some interpretations a "sale," of personal information.

How to opt out. To opt out of this sharing, email worldwidek9academy@gmail.com with the subject line "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information." You may also limit this tracking by adjusting your browser cookie settings, by using a browser or extension that transmits an opt-out preference signal such as Global Privacy Control, or by changing your ad preferences directly with the advertising platform. We honor Global Privacy Control signals where we are able to detect them.

You may also exercise any of the rights listed above, or submit a request through an authorized agent, using the contact information below. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.
