Antallia Enterprises Inc., doing business as Genova Industrial Products (“we,” “us,” or “our,” or the “Company”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of California, United States, operates the website www.genovaind.com (the “Site”) via the Shopify platform. This Data Sales Opt-Out Policy (the “Policy”) outlines your rights to opt out of the sale, sharing, or use of your personal information for targeted advertising under applicable privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA, Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.100 et seq.) and, where applicable, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, EU Regulation (EU) 2016/679). This Policy is incorporated into our Privacy Policy, available at Privacy Policy, and aligns with our commitment to transparency and consumer choice. By accessing or using the Site, you (the “Customer,” “you,” or “your,” or “data subject”) acknowledge the practices described herein.

Article 1: Understanding Data Sharing and Your Rights

1.1 Definition of Sale, Sharing, and Targeted Advertising

Under the CCPA and other U.S. state privacy laws (e.g., Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act), the “sale” of personal information includes sharing it with third parties for monetary or other valuable consideration. “Sharing” or “targeted advertising” refers to the disclosure of personal information to third parties (e.g., advertising partners) to deliver advertisements tailored to your interests based on your online activity across different websites or services.

1.2 Personal Information

We collect personal information through your interactions with the Site, including via cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies, as described in our Privacy Policy. This information may include identifiers (e.g., IP address, device ID), browsing history, and purchase data, which may be shared with third parties (e.g., Google Analytics) for analytics or advertising purposes.

1.3 Your Opt-Out Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to opt out of:

• Sale of Personal Information: Preventing the transfer of your data to third parties for monetary consideration (CCPA, Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.120).
• Sharing for Targeted Advertising: Limiting the use of your data for personalized ads based on cross-site activity (CCPA, as amended by CPRA).
• Processing for Direct Marketing: For EU/UK residents, the right to object to processing for marketing purposes (GDPR Art. 21). Residents of other jurisdictions (e.g., Canada under PIPEDA) may have similar rights, subject to local laws.

Article 2: Methods to Exercise Opt-Out Rights

2.1 Global Privacy Control (GPC)

2.1.1 GPC Signal Recognition

If you access the Site with a browser or device configured to transmit the Global Privacy Control (GPC) opt-out preference signal, we will automatically treat this as a request to opt out of the sale, sharing, or targeted advertising of your personal information. This opt-out applies to the specific device and browser combination used and does not require further verification.

2.1.2 Supported Browsers

GPC is supported by browsers such as:

• Mozilla Firefox (with enhanced tracking protection enabled).
• DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser (GPC enabled by default).
• Brave Browser (via Privacy and Security settings). Browser extensions (e.g., DuckDuckGo, Privacy Essentials, Privacy Badger) may also transmit GPC signals.

2.1.3 Verification

To confirm GPC is active, visit https://globalprivacycontrol.org and use the test tool to verify your browser or device is sending the GPC signal. We are not responsible for browser or extension malfunctions affecting GPC transmission.

2.2 Direct Opt-Out Request

2.2.1 Submission Methods

You may submit a manual opt-out request by contacting us:

• Email: shopifygenind@genovaind.com
• Phone: +1 213 476 7269
• Mail: Antallia Enterprises Inc., 5055 Canyon Crest Dr, Ste 123, Riverside, CA 92507, United States
  Please include your name, contact information, and a clear statement requesting to opt out of the sale, sharing, or targeted advertising of your personal information.

2.2.2 Verification Process

For direct requests, we may verify your identity to ensure compliance with CCPA requirements (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.130). Verification may include matching provided information (e.g., email, order number) with our records. We will respond within forty-five (45) days of receiving a verified request, extendable by forty-five (45) days if necessary for complex cases, as permitted by CCPA.

2.3 Effect of Opt-Out

Opting out will prevent the use of your personal information for targeted advertising or sale to third parties for advertising purposes. However, it will not prevent all advertisements. You may still receive non-personalized ads based on content or context (e.g., ads related to the Site’s products). Opting out does not affect other data processing activities described in our Privacy Policy, such as order fulfillment or fraud prevention.

Article 3: Shopify Platform Compliance

3.1 Shopify’s GPC Handling

As a Shopify-based website, our Site is configured to recognize and respect GPC signals in accordance with Shopify’s privacy compliance framework, which supports adherence to CCPA and other privacy laws. When GPC is enabled, Shopify’s platform automatically disables cookies and trackers used for targeted advertising for that browsing session, subject to browser compatibility.

3.2 Third-Party Integrations

Data sharing may occur via Shopify’s third-party integrations (e.g., Google Analytics, PayPal), which may be considered “sharing” under CCPA. We ensure that Shopify respects opt-out requests by disabling relevant data flows, but Customers can contact Shopify’s support (https://help.shopify.com) for further details on platform-specific data practices.

Article 4: International Privacy Rights

4.1 GDPR Compliance

For EU/UK residents, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes, including targeted advertising, under GDPR Art. 21. Submitting an opt-out request via GPC or direct contact constitutes an exercise of this right. We will cease processing for such purposes within one month of a verified request, as required by GDPR Art. 12(3).

4.2 Other Jurisdictions

Residents of Canada (e.g., under PIPEDA) or other regions may have analogous rights to limit data sharing. Contact us to exercise these rights, and we will comply with applicable local laws.

Article 5: Impact on Advertising

5.1 Non-Personalized Ads

After opting out, you may still receive advertisements that are not based on cross-site tracking, such as ads tied to the Site’s products or general promotions. These ads are not considered “targeted advertising” under CCPA or GDPR.

5.2 Third-Party Opt-Outs

To further limit targeted advertising, you may opt out directly with our advertising partners (e.g., Google via https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or the Network Advertising Initiative at https://optout.networkadvertising.org).

Article 6: Contact Information and Dispute Resolution
