Your Privacy Choices

Welcome to USA Coin Book (operated by [USA Coin Book LLC], hereinafter "we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and providing you with control over your personal information. This page outlines your privacy rights under applicable laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and similar state privacy laws in Colorado, Virginia, Connecticut, and others. It explains how you can exercise those rights, including opting out of the sale or sharing of your personal information, and what happens when you do so.

Please note that this page supplements our main Privacy Policy, which provides detailed information about the types of personal information we collect (e.g., IP addresses, device IDs, browsing behavior), how we use it, and with whom we share it. If you are a resident of a state with comprehensive privacy laws, you have additional rights as described below. We do not knowingly collect or process personal information from children under 16 without parental consent.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your state of residence, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:

  • Right to Know: Request details about the personal information we collect, use, disclose, sell, or share about you.
  • Right to Delete: Request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exemptions (e.g., for fraud prevention or legal obligations).
  • Right to Correct: Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
  • Right to Opt-Out of Sale/Sharing: Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for targeted advertising.
  • Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information: Limit our use of sensitive data (e.g., precise geolocation, health information—if applicable) for non-essential purposes.
  • Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you (e.g., by denying services or charging more) for exercising these rights.

To exercise these rights, you can use the tools on this page, submit a request via our online form, email us at [email protected]. We will verify your identity (e.g., via email confirmation or account login) and respond within 45 days (extendable by another 45 days if needed). You may authorize an agent to act on your behalf with proper documentation.

Opting Out of the Sale or Sharing of Your Personal Information

We do not "sell" your personal information for money in the traditional sense. However, under broad definitions in laws like the CCPA/CPRA, certain activities—such as sharing data with third parties like Google for targeted advertising—may qualify as a "sale" or "sharing." For example:

  • Google AdSense may use your IP address, device ID, or browsing data to serve personalized ads.
  • Google Analytics may process similar data for site performance insights, which could link to advertising if not restricted.

To manage your preference:

Click the button below to submit your opt-out request. This will set a secure cookie on your device to remember your preference.

Sharing for Targeted Ads: Opted In

We automatically honor browser-based signals like Global Privacy Control (GPC). If enabled in your browser (e.g., via settings in Firefox or extensions like Privacy Badger), we detect it and treat it as an opt-out without further action.

Opt-outs apply to the device and browser where submitted. For registered users, we store your preference in our database tied to your account for cross-device consistency. We retain opt-out records for at least 24 months for auditing.

What Happens When You Opt Out

Upon opting out (manually or via GPC):

  • Immediate Effects: We stop sharing your personal information with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising. Specifically:
    • Google AdSense switches to non-personalized ads (based on page content, not your browsing history). Ads may still appear, but they won't be tailored to you.
    • Google Analytics shifts to restricted mode: No cookies are set, and data is collected via cookieless pings for aggregated insights only. IP addresses are anonymized globally for all users.
    • Cloudflare continues for security and CDN purposes, as it's a service provider under contract and not "sharing" under the law.
  • Internal Uses Continue: Your opt-out does not affect our internal operations, which are exempt. For example:
    • We still use PHP session variables for your shopping cart or site preferences.
    • Anonymous ID cookies and IP tracking persist for anti-fraud (e.g., checking against banned IPs or reputation APIs).
    • Account features, like coin listings or searches, remain unchanged.
  • Duration: Opt-outs are persistent and indefinite until you explicitly opt back in. We won't prompt you to reconsider for at least 12 months.
  • Confirmation: You'll see a message like: "Your opt-out request has been processed. We will no longer share your data for targeted advertising."
  • No Impact on Service: You won't lose access to any features, and we won't charge you more.

If you clear cookies or use a new device/browser, you may need to opt out again unless logged in.

Opting Back In

If you've opted out but change your mind, you can opt back in at any time—even before 12 months—via explicit authorization. We won't solicit this from you during the 12-month period.

To opt back in:

Use the toggle above to switch your preference. If opting in after an opt-out, you'll be prompted for confirmation.

What Happens When You Opt In

  • We resume sharing data with third parties for personalized ads and full analytics (e.g., _ga cookies may set, and ads become behavior-based).
  • Your preference is stored (cookie and/or database) with a timestamp.
  • Internal uses remain the same.
  • You can opt out again anytime.

Global Privacy Control (GPC)

We honor GPC signals as an automatic opt-out. If detected (via HTTP header), we apply the restrictions described above. For transparency, our site hosts a /.well-known/gpc.json file confirming compliance. If GPC conflicts with your manual choice, we'll notify you and prioritize your explicit preference after confirmation.

Right to Delete Your Personal Information

You can request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us at [email protected]. We will delete or de-identify your information where possible, but may retain it for exempt purposes like:

  • Completing transactions (e.g., order history).
  • Fraud detection or security.
  • Legal compliance.

Under the California Delete Act, if we qualify as a data broker (we do not, as we have direct relationships with users), we'd also process requests via the state's DROP platform. Responses take up to 45 days.

Updates and Contact

We may update this page to reflect changes in laws or our practices. Check back periodically.

If you have questions or need assistance, contact our Data Protection Officer at [email protected]. For complaints, you can reach the California Privacy Protection Agency at cpra.ca.gov.
