Do Not Sell My Personal Information

Last updated: February 2025

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), California residents have the right to opt out of the "sale" of their personal information. While Ask Finn does not sell personal information in the traditional sense, the CCPA defines "sale" broadly to include sharing information with third parties for advertising purposes.

What This Means

Like many websites, Ask Finn works with advertising partners (such as Facebook and Google) to help us reach people who may benefit from our services. When you visit our website, certain information (like your IP address, device identifiers, and browsing activity) may be shared with these partners for advertising and analytics purposes.

Under the CCPA's broad definition, this sharing may be considered a "sale" of personal information, even though no money changes hands for your data.

Your Right to Opt Out

If you are a California resident, you have the right to opt out of this type of information sharing. When you submit an opt-out request, we will:

  • Stop sharing your personal information with advertising partners for targeted advertising
  • Remove any identifiers we have linked to your browsing activity
  • Honor your request within 15 business days

Please note that opting out will not affect:

  • Information shared to complete a service you requested (such as connecting you with a service provider)
  • Information shared with service providers who help us operate our website
  • Your ability to use our website and services
