California’s CCPA as amended by the CPRA, and comparable laws in other US states, give you the right to stop your personal information being ‘sold’ or ‘shared’ for cross-context behavioural advertising. This page explains how that applies to velvetchalk.com and how to exercise the right.

What Changes

The effect is on targeting, not on volume. Ads may still appear, chosen without reference to your browsing. The rest of velvetchalk.com works exactly as before — opting out never costs you access, features, or content.

What This Covers

We should be clear about scope. Your personal information is not sold for money. Where advertising is served, though, identifiers may be shared with advertising partners, and because these laws define ‘sale’ and ‘sharing’ expansively, that sharing may fall within them. The opt-out is offered on that basis. This applies to everyone reading our coverage of Velvetchalk on velvetchalk.com, whether or not you have ever subscribed or commented.

How to Exercise This Right

The quickest route needs no message from you at all: enable Global Privacy Control in your browser or as an extension. We detect and honour that signal automatically on every visit. Alternatively, set your preference in the cookie consent banner where one is shown, or email hello@velvetchalk.com with ‘Do Not Sell or Share’ as the subject line. No account is needed, and we do not require you to create one.

Full detail on state privacy rights, including access and deletion, is in our State Privacy Notice.
