California privacy rights
A direct way to exercise your privacy rights and understand our practices.
Effective
Your rights
The California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, provides eligible consumers with rights when it applies. These may include access and a copy of personal information; correction; deletion, subject to exceptions; opting out of sale or sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising; limiting certain uses of sensitive personal information; and exercising rights without unlawful discrimination.
We accept privacy requests from all readers. Our privacy notice explains the categories, sources, purposes and service providers involved in the publication. The availability of a specific statutory right depends on the law and the circumstances.
Sale, sharing and sensitive information
We do not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information to infer characteristics about readers. No sale or advertising-sharing opt-out is needed to obtain these protections. See Your privacy choices for browser privacy signals and contact options.
Submit a request
Email tim@timharris.xyz with “California privacy request” and describe what you would like us to do. You do not need a website account. We will acknowledge access, correction or deletion requests within 10 business days and aim to respond within 45 calendar days. If an extension is permitted and needed, we will explain it before the original deadline; an extension will not exceed an additional 45 days. Applicable sale or sharing opt-out requests are addressed as soon as feasible and within 15 business days.
We verify requests proportionately using information already available where possible. An authorized agent may submit a request with evidence of authority; we may also need your confirmation. We do not require identity verification for sale or sharing opt-out requests. We explain applicable exceptions or any inability to fulfill a request.
