CCPA Compliance
At Coin Approved, we are committed to respecting your privacy rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and its amendments under the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). This page explains how these laws apply to our website and how you can exercise your rights as a California resident.
Scope and Applicability
Although Coin Approved does not require user registration or store personal information in a database, we may collect certain personal information automatically through website analytics, cookies, and server logs. This includes IP addresses, browser types, device identifiers, and usage patterns. The CCPA/CPRA applies to this data if it can be linked to a California resident.
Your Rights Under CCPA/CPRA
As a California resident, you have the following rights:
- Right to Know: You can request details about the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you in the past 12 months.
- Right to Delete: You may request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain legal exceptions.
- Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing: You have the right to opt-out of the sale or sharing of your personal information to third parties. While we do not sell personal information for monetary value, we may share anonymized analytics data with service providers. You may still exercise this right via the button below.
- Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not deny you services, charge different prices, or provide a different quality of service because you exercised your CCPA/CPRA rights.
- Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information: We do not collect sensitive personal information as defined under CPRA (e.g., SSN, precise geolocation, biometrics), so this right does not apply.
How We Comply
Coin Approved does not maintain user accounts or store personally identifiable information beyond what is necessary for analytics and site functionality. We use third-party tools (e.g., Google Analytics) that operate under strict data processing agreements. We do not sell personal information to advertisers or data brokers. All data collection is limited to aggregated, anonymized metrics used to improve our content and user experience.
Data We Process
Under CCPA/CPRA, the following categories of personal information may be collected automatically:
- Internet or other electronic network activity (e.g., pages visited, time spent, clicks)
- Device identifiers and IP addresses
- Usage patterns and browsing behavior
- Geolocation data (approximate, based on IP)
Legal Basis for Processing
Our processing of personal information is based on our legitimate interest in providing an informative, secure, and user-friendly website. We do not rely on consent for analytics under CCPA/CPRA, but we honor opt-out requests.
How to Exercise Your Rights
To exercise your rights under CCPA/CPRA, please contact us by email at [email protected] with the subject line: "CCPA/CPRA Request". Include your full name and email address associated with your visit to our site. We may ask for verification of your identity to protect your data.
Response Timeframes
We will acknowledge your request within 10 business days and respond fully within 45 days. If we need additional time, we will notify you and explain the reason for the delay. We may extend the response period by an additional 45 days if necessary, but only with proper notice.
No Discrimination Policy
Coin Approved will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under CCPA/CPRA. You will not be denied access to our content, charged higher fees, or given a lower quality of service because you chose to opt-out, delete your data, or request access.

We may update this CCPA Compliance page periodically to reflect changes in law or our practices. The most recent version will always be posted here with an updated effective date.
