Privacy Policy

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) grants California residents the right to opt out of the “sale” of their personal information.

Although The Painted Feather does not sell personal information, we provide this page to ensure transparency and full compliance with CCPA requirements.

We do not sell, rent, share, or exchange personal information for monetary or commercial value.

We do not allow third-party behavioral advertising networks to use data for cross-context targeted advertising.

We only collect personal information for:

• Responding to inquiries

• Providing mentorship communication

• Website functionality

• Analytics for site performance

If you are a California resident, you have the right to request that we:

• Do not sell your personal information

• Do not share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising

Because we do not sell or share personal information under CCPA definitions, submitting an opt-out request confirms your preference for future protection.

If you still wish to submit a formal request:

To protect your data, we may verify your identity by:

You may appoint an agent to submit a request on your behalf. We may require:
