Authorized Agents & Opt-Out Preference Signals

Authorized Agents

You may authorize an agent to submit an opt-out request on your behalf. This can be done through:

• A web link or browser setting.
• A Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal or other similar preference settings.

We will process the request once we authenticate your identity and verify the agent’s authority.

Opt-Out Preference Signals

Certain browsers allow automatic transmission of an opt-out preference signal (such as Global Privacy Control (GPC)). When detected, Wind ‘n’ Sails will:

• Apply a U.S. Privacy String setting to prevent third-party tracking on our site.
• Link your opt-out request to your browser identifier rather than account information (since we cannot associate browser activity with your account).

To enable GPC, refer to your browser settings or install a supported browser extension.

---

Right to Correct

You have the right to correct inaccuracies in your personal data, considering its nature and processing purposes.

---

Authenticating Your Privacy Request

To protect your data, Wind ‘n’ Sails verifies all privacy requests before processing them.

• We will match the information you provide with existing records.
• If additional verification is required, we may request further details.
• If we cannot verify your request, we may deny it.

For opt-out requests, authentication is not required. However, we may deny the request if we have a good faith, reasonable, and documented belief that the request is fraudulent.

Right to Appeal

If Wind ‘n’ Sails denies your privacy request, you have the right to appeal within 90 days of our decision.

To submit an appeal request, visit the Privacy Preferences page and select "Appeal a Decision" as the request type.
