California Privacy Rights & Notices

If the processing of your personal information is subject to the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”), you have certain rights with respect to that information:

• Right to Know. You can request access to the personal information we collected about you in the last 12 months. You can also request information about the categories of personal information we collected, the sources of collection, the purposes for collection and sharing of this information, the categories of information we shared, and the categories of third parties with whom we shared this information. Note that we have provided much of this information above in this Privacy Statement.

• Right to Request Deletion. You can request that we delete personal information under certain circumstances, subject to a number of exceptions.

• Right to Opt-Out. You can opt-out from any sharing of your personal information with third parties to the extent that such sharing constitutes a “sale” of that data under the CCPA. You can find more information on these practices, including how to exercise your opt-out right, in our Cookie Policy.

• Right to Non-Discrimination. You will not be discriminated against by Wild Pacific Fishing LLC for exercising rights set out in the CCPA.

In the past 12 months, we have disclosed, for a business purpose, data from each of the categories of personal information we maintain to our business partners and vendors, as described in the table above.

The CCPA defines the “sale” of personal information very broadly, and some of our use of third-party cookies and tracking technologies as described in this Privacy Statement may be considered a “sale” under that definition. Specifically, in the past 12 months, we have allowed our advertising and analytics providers to collect IP addresses, cookie IDs, and mobile IDs through our sites and apps when you use our online services. We do not otherwise “sell” personal information.

We do not knowingly collect or sell personal information of minors under 16 years of age.
