Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), California residents have the right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of their personal information.
GuideToSFOT does not sell personal information. However, because our Website uses Google AdSense to display personalized ads, certain data used by Google may be considered “sharing” under California law. This page explains what that means and how you can opt out.
What “Sharing” Means
“Sharing” refers to the use of personal information for cross‑context behavioral advertising — meaning ads based on your activity across different websites.
We do not directly share your personal information with advertisers. However, Google may use data such as:
- IP address
- Browser information
- General browsing behavior
- Interaction with ads
…to personalize ads shown on this Website.
This is handled entirely by Google, not by GuideToSFOT.
How to Opt Out of Personalized Advertising
If you prefer not to have your information used for personalized ads, you can opt out using any of the tools below. These tools apply to Google services and many other participating ad networks.
Google Opt‑Out Tools
- Google My Ad Center https://myadcenter.google.com
- Google Ads Settings https://adssettings.google.com
Industry‑Wide Opt‑Out Tools
- Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) https://optout.aboutads.info
- Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) https://optout.networkadvertising.org
These tools allow you to disable personalized ads across many websites, not just ours.
What Happens If You Opt Out
If you opt out of personalized advertising:
- You will still see ads, but they will be non‑personalized
- Google will stop using your browsing behavior to tailor ads
- Your choice will apply across participating websites
Opting out does not affect your ability to use our Website.
