The Privacy Policy applies to the types of information we may collect from you in conjunction with your use of or exposure to our website(s), our mobile and desktop application(s), our marketing materials, the services we provide, and any products and other materials we may provide (collectively, the “Services”) and our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that information.

Be aware that if you provide us with information through a third-party site or platform, the information you provide may be separately collected by the third-party site or platform.

When we make changes to this Privacy Policy, we will post the updated notice on the Services indicating when the Privacy Policy was last updated, or we will provide you with notice in other ways, consistent with applicable law. Your continued use of the Services following any modifications we may make is deemed to be acceptance of those changes.

Some states provide residents with the right to opt-out of the selling or sharing of Personal Information. To submit a request to opt out, click the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” link below or on the Services. Also, if you clear your Cookies on your browser or use a different browser or device, you may need to opt out again.
We strive to provide you with choices regarding the Personal Information you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:
If you are a California resident, you have the following rights under the CCPA.
You have the right to request (up to two times per year) that we disclose the following information to you about our collection and use of your Personal Information over the past 12 months (the “right to know”). Once we receive your request and confirm your identity we will disclose to you:
At your request, we must delete any of your Personal Information that we collected from you and is in our possession, subject to certain exceptions (the “right to delete”) and confirmation of your identity. We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:
We will delete or de-identify personal information not subject to one of these exceptions from our records and will direct our service providers to take similar action.
At your request, we will correct inaccurate personal information about you. You may also correct inaccurate information by logging in to your Account using your personal log-in credentials.
Under the GDPR, Koastie is a data controller and data processor for the information we collect from you. The GDPR confers the following rights if you reside in the United Kingdom or European Union, as follows:
You may request to exercise these rights by:
Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, for example, an authorized agent, a parent, or legal guardian, may make a request to exercise your rights.
We will confirm receipt of your request within ten (10) business days. If you do not receive confirmation within the 10-day timeframe, please contact us using the methods described above. We endeavor to substantively respond to verifiable consumer requests under the CCPA within forty-five (45) days of receipt. If we require more time (up to another 45 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. Under the GDPR, we will endeavor to respond to your request as promptly as possible but in any event in no more than 30 days from the receipt of your verifiable consumer request.
Your request must: (i) provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative; and (ii) describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. To verify your identity, you will need to provide your first and last names, physical address, telephone number, and email address.
We cannot respond to your request if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you. We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request and for no other reason. Though you need not create an account to make a verifiable consumer request, we consider requests made through your password-protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to Personal Information associated with that specific account. We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.
Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding our receipt of your request. If applicable, our response will provide the reasons we cannot comply with your request. For right to know requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
Various privacy and data protection laws may apply to your Personal Information in our possession. If these other laws apply or if there are other reasons for exemption, we may deny in whole or in part your request. We may also refuse a request if it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded.
If you are age 16 or older, you have the right to direct us to not sell your personal information at any time (the “right to opt-out”). We do not sell the personal information of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years old. Consumers who opt-in to personal information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time.
To exercise the right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) may submit a request to: notices@koastie.com.
Once you make an opt-out request, we will wait at least twelve (12) months before asking you to re-authorize personal information sales.
You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your opt-out rights. We will only use Personal Information provided in an opt-out request to review and comply with the request.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your privacy rights. Unless permitted under applicable laws, solely due to the exercise of your rights hereunder, we will not:
However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your Personal Information’s value and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time. We currently provide no such financial incentives.
We will store your Personal Information for as long as necessary to complete the purpose for which it was collected. We may store your Personal Information for even longer when required to comply with our legal, tax, and accounting obligations, or if we reasonably believe there is a change of complaints or litigation relating to your Personal Information or the Services we provided you.
California’s “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our Website who are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of Personal Information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to notices@koastie.com or write us at the mailing address listed below.
We secure your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. When Personal Information is transmitted to other websites, it is protected through the use of encryption, for example, but not by way of limitation or guarantee, the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. The safety and security of your information also depends on you. You are responsible for keeping your password confidential. You may not share your password with anyone. Though we strive to take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or alteration of your Personal Information, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable.
